The 3NUM team has been overwhelmed by the support and positive feedback from those who have experienced the first version of our service with OG Edition 3NUM Shields. A HUGE thanks to all of our OG holders!
When we began developing 3NUM, the plan was to find a core set of users who were “bought in” to the 3NUM vision, by offering something limited and uniquely valuable. These users would play an integral role in helping us build a product offering that appeals to a wide range of users. We are grateful to have found these users with our OG Edition holders! This community has been invaluable with their contributions!
The Next Phase of 3NUM Shields:
The focus for the next phase of 3NUM is to build a growing user base, so we can transition the world from insecure phone numbers and SMS to trusted and secure communication with 3NUM. Getting there requires offering a product that solves unique problems and is valuable to a wide range of users.
3NUM Shields Will Be Available in 2 Tiers:
This is the foundation of our new offerings. A broadly appealing solution that transforms everyday communications to a secure and trusted replacement.
- 3NUM Starter
- 3NUM Plus (currently in beta)
What you get with 3NUM Starter:
- 3NUM Shield: A anonymous web3 mobile number, minted as a NFT
- Use with encrypted messaging apps like Telegram, Signal or WhatsApp
- Use for wallet secured SMS based 2FA, providing the security of SIWE on websites that require phone numbers for 2FA (this is currently a limited feature)
- Message other 3NUMs and 3NUM enabled web3 addresses
- Price: .015 ETH/year
Because the 3NUM Plus features are currently under development, only 3NUM Starter is available for purchase. 3NUM Starter includes beta access to Plus features until it is available for purchase. At that point, 3NUM Starter users will be able to upgrade to the Plus tier at a prorated cost, if they want to continue accessing those features.
What you get with 3NUM Plus:
- 3NUM Shield: A anonymous web3 mobile number, minted as a NFT
- All the features that come with 3NUM Starter
- 2-way SMS/Calling Support
- Message Spam Prevention
- Web3 Usernames
- Smishing Prevention
- Price: TBD/year
These awesome features are currently under development, and will be released over time. You can view our complete roadmap here
What else do I need to know about 3NUM
- 3NUM Shields and service renew annually, like ENS names.
- There is currently 1 messaging PFP style available for 3NUM Shields, but eventually there will be additional “editions” to choose from
We are excited to begin onboarding new 3NUM Shield users by providing an offering that is appealing to a wide range of users!
