The first Crypto Game ETF

Play to Earn

The NFT space has been blowing up recently, with NFT sales topping $1 Billion in the last week of August. However, there is one segment of the ever-dynamic crypto market outpacing even NFTs: Play-to-Earn Crypto Games.

Simply put, play-to-earn games reward players with tokenized assets for adding value to the game world. By simply playing the game, users earn tokens that can be traded on the open market for real money or other crypto assets like Ethereum and Bitcoin.

Playing this type of game often requires the player to acquire an NFT character beforehand, as well as the time investment needed to play the game and earn the tokens.

HODLing Game Tokens

A different strategy is to acquire game tokens and HODL them while the game’s players increase the value for you. This type of passive investment can deliver massive gains if you’re in early. If you’d have bought $1,000 worth of $AXS when it first launched, you’d have around $520,000 worth today. That’s an increase of 51,900%.

The key here is to be early with games that have a lower market cap and are on the rise of popularity. However, there is always one major difficulty when trying to find that gem … Which one will blow up and go to the moon?

Introducing Hord Crypto Game ETF

This is where this revolutionary new ETF comes into play. Instead of trying to find that one winner, just get yourself some ETF tokens that offer cheap and easy instant diversification into this emerging sector.

By HODLing a single token that might not deliver the returns you hoped for, you increase your risk enormously. However, if you HODL a basket of them, just one of them has to moon, and it doesn’t matter what the others do.

The Games

At launch, 9 games will be included, with more to be added as we go.

DinoX World

Set on the Islands of DinoX World, players find themselves surrounded by various packs of living dinosaurs, who live on the blockchain and are digitally owned, taken care of, bred, trained, and used to fight different creatures occupying the islands. The game makes it easy to learn how to play but features a complex game design to satisfy different player skill levels.

The game runs on Ethereum and uses Polygon. It will be launched on Steam first and iOS and Android later. DinoX World is free to play, allowing users to play the game with zero starting capital.

To create a friendly environment for F2P players who are unfamiliar with Cryptocurrency market and NFTs, a mechanism called Crypto War is incorporated into the gameplay to give incentives to such players to do their own research and learn about the market.

KABY is the game’s native token and has a market cap of $9M at the time of writing. The token is used to exchange for in-game upgrades, speed up time-gated content, mint NFTs from in-game heroes/items, buy/rent NFT assets, open loot-boxes, and wage on PvP battles.

GameFi

GameFi is the all-encompassing hub for game finance. Its ecosystem features Yield Guilds, Launchpad, Aggregator, Marketplace, and Accelerator. GameFi was created to work out problems that most game studios have encountered and discover effective ways in developing a platform that builds relationships with game players, token holders, and traders all in one place. GameFi is strongly backed by Icetea Labs, an incubator for rising projects such as Faraland and Kaby Arena, and DAO Maker, a launchpad for numerous high-profile game projects. This collaboration is a crucial first step providing a solid foundation for the growth of GameFi’s ecosystem. It can be considered the de-facto game token for exposure to the crypto gaming industry.

The project runs on Binance Smart Chain and works closely with Polygon.

It is first a classic video game, but most importantly, it is also an economic game.
