From Participant to “Resident” of Somnia: A One-Year Journey

Just a year later, the @Somnia_Network ecosystem is no longer a futuristic idea but has become a vibrant digital world. While on the first day Somnia only had a few experimental games, now an entire "application universe" has been formed: a platform for organizing virtual concerts, a digital art gallery, a fan club community built on blockchain… all existing and seamlessly connecting within #Somnia. Mark and I are used to regularly participating in AMA (Ask Me Anything) right in the virtual space of Somnia, where projects share their vision, plans, and receive direct questions from the community. With SOMI tokens in hand, we are not just listeners, but also actively involved in governance: voting on important decisions, contributing to shaping the future of the ecosystem. Lily, on the other hand, has a different joy. She has become a loyal user of a virtual fashion DApp on Somnia. The NFT outfits that she collects and exchanges for reward points can be used across various games and applications. Not just "virtual items", it is also a way for Lily to assert her identity in the digital world - a cohesive, vibrant, and increasingly important identity. The highlight of the experience was when the three of us participated in a role-playing game organized right in the Somnia metaverse. In avatar form, we entered a meticulously designed setting, searching for clues together and collaborating to solve puzzles. Every detail was smooth and captivating to the point that we forgot that everything was running on a blockchain platform. After the game ended, Mark laughed and said: "Now I understand what Somnia means by 'aiming for the general user.' Technology should be like electricity – always present, but hidden behind the experience. What people care about are engaging games and interesting social connections, not which chain is running behind it." Lily is more excited than ever: "Awesome! My avatar and outfit can be used anywhere. It feels like I really have a 'different life' in this digital world." Listening to them share, I suddenly realized: Somnia's vision is gradually becoming a reality. The journey from the very first steps – buying and selling SOMI tokens, experimenting with applications – has taken us from outside observers to the "first residents" of a newly emerging digital nation. Somnia is not just a blockchain; it is a gateway to a new era: a place where joy, creativity, and experience take center stage. In the silence of technology, a new world is being built – and it could be the place that brings billions of people into Web3. Our little story is just a piece of the larger picture. But it is a piece filled with joy, excitement, and a sense of belonging – a feeling that anyone who becomes a part of Somnia can find. $SOMI {spot}(SOMIUSDT)
