Abstract
This whitepaper presents the Coin Oracle NFT project – a platform that allows individuals, groups,
and businesses to exchange ideas for other assets on a secure and decentralized blockchain platform.
In recent years, non-fungible tokens (NTFs) have become an increasingly popular manner of buying
and selling digital artworks; however, digital art is only a fraction of the potential applications that
NTFs bring to this new world. Our platform, we argue, will be the blockchain implementation that fully
focuses on the specific needs of people with potentially big ideas. Moreover, it will be a bridge between
these people and those who are in search of new ideas to invest in. We believe that this key distinction
will allow us to fill in one of the many gaps that can be found in the blockchain industry.

Introduction
Non-fungible tokens (NFTs) are digital assets that represent real-world objects like music, in-game items,
and videos. NFTs have a unique identity and ownership on a blockchain. Due to their nature, NTFs are
not interchangeable but they can be traded.
Long seen as peripheral to the more popular cryptocurrencies, in recent years NTFs have become an
increasingly popular manner of buying and selling digital artworks. NTFs have also been endorsed by
prominent figures, including Twitter’s Jack Dorsey, who sold his first tweet as an NFT1 .
NTFs have seen a significant increase in trade volume and users in the last year. For instance, investment
in NFTs increased by 299% in 20202 and by 2,882% in February 2021. The increased interest in NFTs
arguably reflects an improvement in their infrastructure, which now supports full-stack services from
trading venues, minting platforms, marketplaces, and others3.
NFTs support any work or piece of real value. Some expect that its value will continue to increase as
mainstream brands start to leverage the technology. For instance, DC Comics said they are exploring the
potential of selling original DC art based on their intellectual properties in the form of NFTs4. Brands such
as Nike, Louis Vuitton, Breitling, NBA, and Formula 1 have been actively creating NFT-based consumer
goods and services.5
Initially, buyers of virtual currencies have been individuals acting on their own behalf. As cryptocurrencies
and the blockchain technology on which they are based gained understanding and popularity, we
are seeing more and more non-retail buyers such as institutions and businesses which are integrating
cryptocurrencies into their business model. As more sophisticated investors have begun to enter the
crypto space in recent years, there has been a rapid growth in hedge funds and venture funds directed
towards cryptocurrencies.

Our project focuses on filling a relatively unoccupied niche by creating a decentralized and secure
blockchain platform that will serve as a meeting place between creative individuals and the investment
community. The principles on which our project is based are not fundamentally different from other NFTs
but there is one important and unique aspect to it. As we will highlight in the following sections, Coin
Oracle focuses on both the specific need of people with potentially big ideas and those in search of a
new venture to invest in. We believe that this key distinction will allow us to fill one of the many gaps that
characterize the young blockchain industry.
In the not-so-distant past, funding a business took one of three forms: self-funding, bank funding, and
venture capital. For most people, self-funding is limited. Bank funding and venture capital, on the other
hand, are difficult to access because bank funding requires an existing business with good revenues and
cash flow and venture capital almost always requires having a product or service that has mass appeal6.
The emergence of crowdfunding gave hope to many startups, as it allowed companies for the first time
to raise funds from regular people. While many young companies have become successful thanks to
crowdfunding, the business model on which this funding approach is based is arguably inefficient. For
instance, Kickstarter says that 78% of campaigns that raise 20% of their goal become fully funded while
11% of projects do not receive any funding7 .
Blockchain technology can offer several alternatives to traditional crowdfunding while also providing
a safer funding process and complete transparency from anywhere in the world8. At present, funding
ideas in the crypto world usually mean an initial coin offering (ICO). However, we argue, the blockchain
can be used to develop applications where any good idea can be funded by individuals, groups, and
businesses, regardless of whether it is a business idea or not.

Mission
and
Scope
There are already many NFT marketplaces. Most of the NFTs trading occurs in
visual artwork, where creative elements are easy to see and sell. But what if you
wanted to market something more ethereal, such as merely an idea or even an
incomplete one? While for an individual it is not an easy task to quantify the
value of an idea, the market can put quantitative values on ideas just as they
do for artworks. Surely ideas have some value, otherwise, people would not be
arguing, sometimes fiercely, about their own ideas and those of others.
Our mission is to join together people with ideas and people looking to
invest in them in a novel way. Our platform is a marketplace designed as the
perfect opportunity for idea buyers and sellers to meet. From creative types
to technical ones, from mathematicians to performers, from career-oriented
people to domestic engineers, everybody is welcome to join in and market any
ideas they believe will bring value.

Use Cases
Help Dreams meet Reality through Financing
Maybe your idea needs a lot of money. The kind of money you do not
have. And you know you are not the kind of organized person that can
handle finances and bean-counting. After all, what would be the world
without dreamers?
Business Insight
Are you an expert in your highly specialized field? Do you have general thoughts about the direction
in which an industry is going? Or perhaps you have relatively specific ideas about how something new
could be produced. Or better. Or faster. Or cheaper. Maybe there is someone out there that is willing to
spend a bit of money for an insight they never had before. Are you into the field of widget production
and would be curious to know what other people think about it? You could join Reddit, but do you have
the time to sort through a ton of trolls? Why not have a nice marketplace where the new crazy ideas
would get evaluated and bubbled up by the community? Some people are arguably way more creative
than others. What if they would be incentivized to flex their creative muscles? Sure, they might keep
their precious pet billion-dollar-great-idea to themselves, but since their hands are already busy with
said precious, what if they would be willing to spread that excess creativity around? You can think of
examples such as „I’m making shoes and purses, but I think this dress would totally rock”.
While it is often great to think big and conjure big ideas that would get sold for large sums, we should
also, occasionally, think small! To go back to the fashion example, suppose you have this base idea for a
dress, you could even do 5 variations on the dress, e.g., dress with flounders, dress with low shoulders,
etc.
Do you sell your merchandise on Etsy.com? Maybe you sell handmade decorations or furniture. Odds
are you have ideas about how to decorate a jaw-dropping room, you know what mixtures work and
what is just plain mediocre. You can now sell all those tips and tricks that you have accumulated during
years of interior design experience.
Want to Impress at the dinner table?
Suppose somebody is a good debater, they could sell a solid
defense of a point of view about something. Do you want to
impress your friends when it comes to dinner conversations?
Just buy that quick 1-minute defense about why the vegan diet is
superior to the carnivore diet, and vice-versa in case you suddenly
find out your new friends all work for the meat industry! No need to
google frantically under the dinner table, we’ve got you covered!
And last but not least, do you want to blow the whistle on some
nefarious activity? Why not make an NFT leak?
Wallet interaction
Available after a successful transaction and gives the participants a window for direct
interaction.
Ease of use
Intuitive interface.
Bidding
Ability to offer and counter-offer a fair price for each NFT.
Patronage
If you have a great project in your heart but do not know where to begin bringing it to life,
take a chance and sell it on the platform. We, at Coin Oracle, will select one idea per month
and provide help to fund, develop and promote your project. It might just be the one!
Every idea will receive a score which will have an impact on the monthly choice.
Oracle will do all due diligence required for the safety of the project, investors, and charity
owners.
Idea incubator
Do you have a great idea for a token? Have you spotted a gap in the crypto market and know
just what needs to fill that space? We know what it feels like to start something from scratch!
We are here for you, ready to provide the management needed for your token venture to
reach its full potential.
With Oracle you can develop your own idea – Safe & Easy.
Verified & audited smart contracts – contracts and audits will be available on the platform for
everyone to research.
NFT CLASSIFICATION
Oracle will classify the item into one or several categories to make it easy for investors to browse.
In the future, we aim to bring AI technology to our platform to improve filtering, transparency,
and classification with the help of Hadoop Map Reduce. Categories could include “Business ideas”,
“Tech ideas”, “Food ideas”, “Book plots”, “Futurism”,” Token use cases”, “NFT services” etc. A certain
“editor’s score” will be assigned at this point to each item. For ideas we cannot verify we will make
a “High risk” category.
SENDING FEEDBACK
After classifying and scoring the idea, Oracle will send suggestions for the creator to confirm and
finalize the NFT.
SALE
Bidding functionality will establish an NFT idea’s real-world market value. Prospective buyers will
be able to read the title of the item and a short description. Another feature of the platform, as
mentioned before, will be adding a user-assigned score, which will be used in the selling process.

The future
Conclusion
Our idea started by looking at the many success stories involving NFTs when we realized that it is not
only digital art that can be created and bought as NFTs but ideas can be used in the same way a well.
With this in mind, we expect that our product will facilitate the interaction of two types of people, very
creative people and people who are looking for new ideas whether for their existing business, a new
venture, or personal reasons.
We hope we’ve made a compelling case that ideas are a never-ending resource and a platform such
as the one we are proposing has the potential to keep going indefinitely. At present, the NFTs market
is largely unexplored and there is ample room for the development of novel types of NFTs. We are
confident our expertise will allow us to build up brand authority and differentiate ourselves from
competing NFT marketplaces.
The consequences of a shift in public perception about what can be bought or sold are currently
materializing. This will fuel the NFTs market in more ways than one. Our stance is that virtual assets
such as cryptocurrencies and NFTs are the future, and if you share this opinion then we are pleased to
welcome you to our ideas marketplace.
