Question 1 – Answered by CEO, Pei-Han
We saw that for the launchpad – there are quite a few customers/projects. Can you share what Morpheus Labs looks for in a project before on-boarding them?
It is known that in the Blockchain space – there is a massive lack of adoption. Although many projects might be doing well in token price, in reality, the majority have a gap to adoption. The LaunchPad initiative is a co service product between ML and Huawei with the aim to connect ready blockchain projects to enterprises and users.
To ensure that only serious projects are on boarded, Projects must have ready products, open for enterprises to validate their product and commercially viable. We have strict requirements and a due diligence process.
This being said, ML and Morpheus Labs will not be responsible for the outcome and viability of the project in the long run. Kindly conduct your own due diligence. The launchpad is only a service that can add value-add, we don’t control or run the projects that are on board with us.
We received overwhelming interests during our private invites, ML and Huawei team filter out those products/teams are not ready for enterprise.

Question 2 – Answered by CIO, Dorel
Can you tell us more on how Morpheus Labs solutions apply to the real world business, enterprise or educational needs?
Morpheus Labs SEED , the core product, makes it easy to develop , deploy and potentially to run any kind of blockchain based solution. Let’s now outline how this apply to the real world:
- Education. The training providers use the ML SEED platform to deliver hands-on training. The hackathon and workshop providers use the ML SEED to run coding competitions or to showcase blockchain based solutions . We have the concrete. example of MLH using ML SEED to showcase the ICON technology. And we know that MLH has an exposure to about 65000 students. In light of these the ML in partnership with other big names will leverage on SEED for delivering blockchain education to facilitate the adoption.
- Enterprises. SEED accelerates the digital transformation of enterprises by providing unique features for low-coding , solution sandboxing.
- Last but not least, individual developers and freelancers are incentivised to publish their apps and get noticed by these enterprise customers who will utilize such dApps as reference for their solutions.

Question 3 – Answered by CEO, Pei-Han
LaunchPad is a Go to market CTA that connects ML SEED enterprises users (Blockchain projects) to allow Huawei’s potential customers to easily adopt these solutions. This is just the start. We aim to Push and bring ML SEED to the public and reach out to the other projects within the wider blockchain ecosystem. Morpheus Labs will work with Huawei & our other stakeholders in the next phase to promote, add value and raise up the bar for all involved.

Question 4 – Answered by CTO, Bruce
We have successfully completed the Campaign Staking beta test on the Polygon network. And we are working on the enhancements based on the valuable feedback received from the beta test participants. We are targeting to release the first staking campaign on the Polygon network by the end of November. The first campaign is to incentivize community members to sign-up on ML SEED platform. More details will be shared before the campaign starts.

Question 5 – Answered by CTO, Bruce
Yes, a roadmap in the updated tokenomics has mentioned a high level plan for the developer campaigns to be executed over 12 months starting from Q1 of 2022. Developers are the key users and contributors to the ML SEED platform and the community. Developers will be incentivized for their contributions to the SEED platform and the developer community, some of examples (subject to change):
- freelancer program
- platform development and test bounty programs
- development of the SEED platform open source components
- develop and publish dApps and APIs
- developer hackathons
- developer community events
- developer referral program
A detailed plan will be shared before Q1 2022.

Question 6 – Answered by CIO, Dorel
ML SEED has been featured as a very innovative platform to conduct hands-on training, workshops and hackathons. It is quick and easy for participants to participate. ICON hackathons done by MLH (Major League Hacking – a giant of hackathons) and Munich University of Applied Science are two notable cases where SEED has been used in hackathons/workshops. As you know ML SEED comes with its own marketplace for dApps, named App Library.
The hackathon participants use the App Library to search for reference dApps, and combined with SEED capability to quickly deploy nodes and to develop online code online in many languages, all these together, have made their life much easier. Many of the finalists have presented on the pitch day diverse good solutions that give the idea they were able to perform well.
ML SEED is not just helping users to create but dApp creators have chances to be noticed by ML SEED enterprise users and get hired by them. So yes there has been a real usage of platforms for hackathons and workshops in the last 2 years.
