- The Blast mainnet now hosts the live version of the cryptocurrency trading card game “Fantasy,” which allows you to exchange influencers for cryptocurrency.
- The project’s fundraising round brought approximately $600,000.
After gaining a lot of traction on its testnet, the cryptocurrency trading card game “Fantasy” has now launched on the Blast mainnet.
Crypto influencers can become trading cards in the game and be exchanged by other app users. Every time a card is traded, a 1.5% share goes to the people who are featured on it.
In a funding round that concluded in February, the project additionally received $600,000 from angel investors, Manifold Trading, Alliance DAO, and Fabric Ventures. Former ParaFi Capital partner Santiago Santos, CEO of LayerZero Labs Bryan Pellegrino, and pseudonymous NFT influencer money were among the angel investors on the list.
Additionally, “Fantasy” is offering claims for an airdrop of points. This will be determined by using on-chain analytics on a select blockchains, such as Blast, and activity on social networking site X.
Increasing testnet activity
Prominent figures such as Ansem championed the initiative, which achieved remarkable success on the testnet. Hundreds of testnet ETH were traded on Ansem’s trading cards, resulting in a few testnet ETH being awarded to him as trading rewards.
It will be interesting to see if the project can draw large enough volumes to gain a comparable kind of traction once it enters the mainnet.
Users can also use “Fantasy” to enter competitions using five of their cards. Up to 23,800 users participated in these competitions on the testnet, according to the initiative, and there were 75,000 registered users in total.
“Fantasy” is built on top of Blast, an Ethereum Layer 2 network that launched on the mainnet in February. Blast offers 4% interest for ether and 5% for stablecoins in an effort to create a native-yield model for both. Tieshun Roquerre, the creator of the NFT marketplace Blur, built it.
