Hello,
thanks for your interest in §EMILY.
We are currently updating the whitepaper to a new design that fits our identity better. I can message you as soon as the new white paper is uploaded, however our vision is also described at other places on our website.
Thank you for the offer, but that's not necessary, just announce it here and I'll let myself know as I'm now watching this thread
As I am only the community manager my technical understanding of what peppermint labs are doing is kind of limited to more general terms:
Peppermint Labs is developing the "NFT Marketplace/ Exhibition Room. But it is not a marketplace like there are already thousands out there, no, they are developing something special.
We are partnering with them in order to offer a unique way to present self-made NFTs to our DAO members. As described in the "benefits for token holders" section, regular online and real life exhibitions will be a big part of the $EMILY project. Our friends at peppermint labs are always discovering new and never seen before ways to interact with things that are known to all of us (for example NFT marketplaces).
I can guarantee you that this marketplace they are working on won't be even remotely comparable to anything you know.
They describe it like this:
This project is an interactive NFT framework meant for cultural institutions holding artist events.
The code is broken into a few projects, all orchestrated with docker-compose for simplicity.
(...)
The front-end webapp is configured for an interactive NFT event where attendees are given a blank canvas
to draw on, title, and describe. The artist then receives these works and continues them, with ability
to modify final title and description.
Both attendee and artist are considered to be the creator of the asset, while the attendee receives the NFT
The front-end webapp could easily be modified to support a number of interactive art exhibit use cases such
as allowing an attendee to choose a pre-existing artwork from the artist for them to add their autograph to.

For Peppermint Labs, perhaps I am accessing a different website than what you intended to show us. Can you share us a link to this platform so we can know better what's the platform and the products they're offering is about? The link you shared to us to read more is leading us to "artby.city" instead of peppermint labs.
As for the project itself, didn't mean to be rude, simply curious, wouldn't it be not too much different than those AI Image generator like
this for example? Can you tell us more the key differences of what you offered with the existing platforms?
I once again excuse for the delay in answering your questions - I had a quick call with one of our devs an I can give you some concrete answers on your questions now.
As stated on our website, the goal of the WhoIsEmily project is to reimagine and improve the way Art is exhibited, transferred and created on blockchains.
The $EMILY Artwork NFT is a key that guarantees the wallet that has minted it a right to vote on financial and organisational matters in the DAO. Furthermore the owners of a Genesis $EMELY NFT will enjoy special privileges like the possibility to take part in digital and real life art exhibitions - decentralised art auctions and view together events are also planned.
DAO treasury is funded with a third of all the initial sales. In perpetuity, one-third of all the secondary market revenue is also directed toward the treasury.
This constellation will constantly improve the symbiosis between Art and the blockchain.
Thats where peppermint labs comes in. They provide us with their own NFT solutions that will take the NFT capabilities of our DAO members to the next level.
In this article there is a preview of which functions are planned and in development:

A good example for functions a NFT showroom should have:
Direct negotiation module for the contact with collectors, museums, and art galleries around the world (in development).
Peppermint Labs is experienced in working with NFT creators around the world, so far they provided the tech in the following NFT collections:

My statement from the last post was not completely incorrect but unacceptably inaccurate, that's why I have removed it.
This blog entry lines out why you should definitely one of the $Emely NFTs by showing what you miss out if you don't:
