🗞️ NEWS
$PIRATE LAUNCH TOMORROW
Pirate Nation’s $PIRATE token is going live on June 13th. You can either claim or claim and stake, and the Pirate FDN created a thread on the mechanics:
You gain Proof of Play Points by staking $PIRATE
The earlier you stake the higher the points multiplier you lock in + 50% bonus for claiming and staking in a single transaction
Holders also get a large number of Points daily
$PIRATE will be spendable and staked, which won’t affect your multiplier
Stakers will get discounts on purchases made with $PIRATE, including upcoming limited-edition items
There’s no lock to the staking, but you will lose the multiplier when you unstake + if you unstake a Founder’s Pirate, you lose the points it accumulated
Reminder: 47% will be allocated directly to the Pirate Nation community and 31% of this pool will be claimable upon TGE.
REVOLVING GAMES ECOSYSTEM
Revolving Games released a thread on its ecosystem expansion and revamp to simplify it and enhance community rewards, here are some highlights:
The RCADE Chain is coming
RCADE Node sales will be conducted in partnership with Revolving Games ecosystem games
“Each Nexus Node NFT represents a claim to a high-level “Interceptor” node”
Nexus Nodes, RG Bytes, and Skyborne Genesis are being buffed in terms of utility
A seamless “plug-in” node solution, allowing you to contribute and earn
All the NFT collections can contribute to the Node network
“RG Bytes, expect the unexpected”
They are working on a second browser-based game: Hatchlings
UNITE SECURED $3M
Unite secured $3M in Seed extension in a round from SuperLayer
You’re probably not familiar with Unite, so here’s a quick breakdown:
It’s an L3 blockchain solution, that will release infrastructure tooling for Web3 mobile gaming studios
This company addresses the limitations of Web3 mobile games (high gas fees, network congestion, revenue-backing economy, etc.)
So far they have achieved 170,000+ unique wallets, 5M+ downloads, and 300K+ active users
Most impressive is the team so far:
CEO WeiWei Geng: developed top-grossing games with $400M in revenue
Co-Founder Kevin Chou: worked for Kabam which was acquired for $1B by Netmarble
They are introducing a $2M in-game reward season for their flagship game, Mom’s Kitchen (more details soon)
Overall, this is an under-the-radar play with a quality team, funding, and a promising solution, with many incentives to hand out.
SPARKBALL IS RELAUNCHING
Sparkball, a Web3 game, that blends the MOBA and brawler genres is relaunching
After several months of silence on Twitter, they posted something new: Find your Spark Season Zero
At the time the game couldn’t continue because of a lack of funding, but it seems they are raising a token round now, which allows them to continue the game
Sparkball is one of the better Web3 games, especially fun to play inside with friends or perhaps the GC community.
