# BEARLABS Goal

BearLabs' creation stems from the need for a two-fold solution: bringing transparency and guidance to the Aptos Blockchain and providing NFT enthusiasts with a project that's backed by actual utility.

Aptos has endured much turbulence of late in both hacks and rug pulls. Although no blockchain (yet) is without its own problems, we feel that some form of collateral damage avoidance would be possible through a proactive educational approach.

By positioning ourselves as an information gateway within the ecosystem, we aim to expose projects that may not have their investor's best interests at heart.

This will also lead to additional opportunities, such as identifying opportune Aptos job employment placements, which we would then distribute to the community.

The deployment of our NFT collection will grant users access to the BearLabs DAO, where they can vote on how to distribute the proceeds attained from our various revenue-generating services, such as our newsletter, project view, and advertisement, along with our podcast sponsorships / ad sense.

Our goal is "simple" to provide consistent value to our 5,000 NFT holders year-round by solving and monetizing actual problems on the Aptos chain.
