The Porini Foundation is a Swiss-based non-profit organization dedicated to bridging the gap between innovative technology and nature conservation. Founded by experts in wildlife biology, blockchain technology, and sustainable business, its mission is to support climate and nature conservation projects by leveraging disruptive technologies, particularly zero-carbon blockchain solutions, to align with the UN's Sustainable Development Goals.

The foundation's flagship initiative is Nature Collectibles, the first global marketplace for NFTs for Conservation (NFTCs). This platform allows individuals to purchase digital collectibles that are directly linked to real-world conservation projects in protected areas. Each collectible represents a specific species, and 100% of the proceeds go directly to funding conservation efforts, with the foundation covering all transaction fees. This creates a transparent and direct funding channel for vital conservation work.

Slime World

Slime World is a play-to-earn (P2E) mobile game developed by NADA Digital. It’s the flagship title published under Hedera Guild Games and is available on Android and iOS. The game leverages the Hedera blockchain platform's speed, low transaction fees, and carbon-negative footprint to offer an engaging blockchain gaming experience where players collect and nurture pets called "Slimes" to protect their world and defend against the encroaching "Dark Slimes." 

Players complete quests and embark on adventures to earn in-game currency called "Orichalcon" through various activities. The Orichalon can be exchanged for the Hedera Guild Games (HGG) token (formerly NADA Protocol token) a utility token based on the Hedera blockchain. It can be used within the game for upgrading player’s Slimes, purchasing items to aid in adventures, and creating unique Slime NFTs that can be collected and traded via an in-game marketplace.

Gameplay centers around a strategic tower defense-style "infinite mode" where players take on waves of enemies and a "PVP arena mode" wherein players battle one another using their owned or rented Slime NFTs. 

Slime World also features mini-games such as "Super Jump" and "Road Crossing," a roulette system for rewards, enhanced social features including user profiles and global chat, and a built-in multi-staking service for HGG tokens.
