The Tokenized Community for Web3 Natives

Guarded by the WhaleRoom social token.

Our Journey So Far

In 2021, WhaleRoom embarked on a pioneering mission to establish one of the first token-gated, infrastructure-based communities for blockchain enthusiasts across a diverse range of token projects. While we gained initial traction, sustaining the community proved challenging. The core issue stemmed from our reliance on a hybrid model—combining decentralized identity with centralized infrastructure—a fundamental misstep from the outset.

Since then, the technological landscape has evolved. Trusted open-source solutions now enable fully peer-to-peer communication at scale—options that weren’t available when we began. Our struggle to gain sustainable traction was a result of straddling both decentralized and centralized paradigms. To fulfill our original mission of becoming a truly decentralized hub for the industry’s most passionate stakeholders, transformative change is essential.

Envisioning the Future

Privacy-Centric
Fully Decentralized
Globally Accessible

These are the pillars that will define WhaleRoom moving forward.

We are reimagining WhaleRoom as a unified community centered around the WhaleRoom social token, operating entirely on a peer-to-peer, serverless, and decentralized framework. This means no servers, no scaling costs, and no single point of failure. After years of experimenting with a hybrid approach, we’ve realized that embracing full decentralization is the only way to attract and retain the ideal members of our community.

What are WHLC membership tokens?

They are the membership tokens you receive when joining the community via the loyalty game smart contract. Upon joining the community and converting your WHL, 10% of social tokens are withheld by the smart contract and made available to existing members according to their share of the membership loyalty smart contract pool.

Members are free to leave the community by converting their WHLC membership tokens back into WHL social tokens at any point in time if they wish to leave the community. Upon forfeiting a membership, 10% of WHLC membership tokens are withheld and made available to remaining WhaleRoom members according to their share of the membership loyalty pool.

A minimum of 500 WHL social tokens must enter the smart contract to receive 450 WHLC membership tokens to qualify members access to the official WhaleRoom.

About WHLC:

Launch: Feb 2021

Warning: WHLC is worthless outside of the WhaleRoom ecosystem. Do not attempt to sell them or trade them outside of the ecosystem, they serve absolutely no purpose outside of WhaleRoom.

How does WhaleRoom 2.0 affect existing WhaleRoom members?

As an existing holder, you do not have to do anything to migrate to the future new version of WhaleRoom. What you can do is vote on whether or not a temporary token-gated Discord channel should be set up while we await the launch of the new WhaleRoom community system.

As an existing holder who’s made it this far with us, these upcoming changes will only benefit the project considering the existing traction is non-existent.
