NFT Gaming Pioneer Vulcan Forged Launches First-Ever DEX for Gaming Tokens

Press Release: Vulcan Forged has launched a new and revolutionary decentralized exchange for gaming tokens following the success of its gaming metaverse, VulcanVerse. 

 

October 11th, Cardiff, United Kingdom – Blockchain gaming platform, Vulcan Forged, is announcing the launch of the first-ever decentralized exchange (DEX) purpose-built for gaming tokens, VulcanDEX. The DEX will allow users of the gaming platform to trade any gaming token without the need to register. Players will then be able to use their newly acquired tokens in their respective game. 

 

Users will also be able to stake gaming tokens to facilitate exchanges in VulcanDEX, with users earning rewards in proportion to their share of specific liquidity pools. The DEX currently has 4 active pools for this purpose, with several more, including $YGG, $SAND $AXS and $VNLA coming soon. Moreover, in-game assets can be farmed in VulcanDEX in the form of non-fungible tokens (NFTs), creating an active economy that involve several popular blockchain-based gaming ecosystems. 

 

VulcanDEX is also powered by $PYR, the utility token that is the backbone of the VulcanForged gaming ecosystem. Players can stake PYR in the DEX as well as earn their rewards in it and stake it in pools in addition to other gaming tokens.

 

Pioneering the Decentralized Play-to-Earn Model

With the addition of VulcanDEX to its portfolio of games and products, Vulcan Forged has become a veritable pioneer in  the “Play-to-Earn” (P2E) space. P2E is a gaming business model that creates open economies within gaming ecosystems and rewards those who add value to games by contributing to their development. This can be in the form of contributions such as game design and development, and even beta testing new games. The idea is to give access to potential players who would otherwise pay a premium to play popular games.

 

Vulcan Forged has merged this emerging concept with the principles of decentralized finance (DeFi), allowing participants in VulcanForged’s gaming platform to contribute gaming tokens and other crypto assets to facilitate their exchange between decentralized gamers. Moreover, the P2E industry is relatively new, with players such as Axie Infinity and Decentraland only gaining significant popularity this year. This puts Vulcan Forged at the cutting edge of this new emerging industry. 

 

Building on Success

That Vulcan Forged is in this pioneering position is no surprise given its recent success. Combined, the Vulcan Forged games are set to surpass the milestone of 200,000 users by the end of 2021. This is as a result of a number of successful developments since the start of the year for the Vulcan Forged team, including securing the intellectual property rights for iconic pieces of art to be included in their flagship in-game world, the VulcanVersre. 

 

The works include “Egyptian Queen” by Frank Frazetta, a painting which sold earlier in the year for over $5.4 million. Frazetta is a world-renowned fantasy and science fiction artist most famous for his Conan The Barbarian illustrations. Moreover, Vulcan Forged also partnered with Arkane Network to support game-focussed NFTs built on Polygon. The expansion to other popular ecosystems in the crypto space is part of Vulcan Forged’s longer-term plan to expand access to its pioneering games and game development ecosystem.

 

About Vulcan Forged

DRepublic Launches World’s First Combinable NFT Platform, ‘MetaCore’ Using EIP-3664

Press Release: Blockchain company DRepublic has announced the launch of their innovative combinable NFT platform MetaCore, and NFT product Legoot, using the new EIP-3664 Modularity. 

 

7th October 2021 — Blockchain MMORPG game “Cradles: Origin Of Species” creators DRepublic have now developed the first-ever combinable NFT platform MetaCore, using the new EIP-3664 Modularity. With this groundbreaking new technology, DRepublic has also developed the first combinable NFT product: Legoot, and simultaneously opened up a whole new world of possibilities within both the NFT space and the wider blockchain industry. 

 

What is EIP-3664?

EIP-3664 is the next infrastructure layer for NFTs and on-chain development, bringing notable functionality improvements on the previous 1155 (multi-token) & 721 (non-fungible token) standards. The most relevant advancement EIP-3664 offers is its disaggregation and assemblage characteristics which enable the arbitrary combination of all NFTs. The most important features of EIP-3664 are its combinable, separable, and modifiable attributes which can be utilized for any kind of NFT operations through the blockchain.  

 

Users can now use EIP-3664 to create an infinite number of different products without repeating work. This level of customization opens the door to the extendability of metaverse ecosystems and NFT assets for the first time ever. 

 

MetaCore: NFT Identity System

The MetaCore platform is an identity system and Layer-2 ecosystem which allows all metaverse citizens to join alternate metaverses by using a unique MetaCore Identity. With the ability for citizens to be connected to multiple metaverses, the potential for creatives to become involved in cross-chain/open-source community collaboration is exponential. 

 

Imagine a new breed of multi-element NFTs, unbound by the constraints of single static-image pieces, with almost unlimited levels of customization and disaggregation. The MetaCore Identity attribute is this gateway, and the next advancement of combinable modular NFTs, with arbitrary attributes addition and removal, freely combining and dividing each component. 

 

MetaCore uses blockchain smart contracts allowing users to sign contracts with others to set their own specific terms & conditions, all traceable via the blockchain. The MataCore login ID also supersedes the outdated password login standard and has already been supported by Cradles: Origin Of Species, and Legoot

 

Legoot: The Real LEGO Loot 

NFT Loot boxes are a hot item right now but only offer NFT prizes with very limited functionality. MetaCore is already adapted to multiple metaverse blockchain games and Legoot, a loot-like project aiming to utilize the full power of EIP-3664 enabling loot props that are changeable.

 

Until now, NFT items have held a singular purpose and value, but the Legoot NFT assembly toy enables the free assembly and disassembling of its own parts that can be sold individually. 

 

Think of Legoot as a true NFT LEGO that can be used by players to mount to MetaCore for NFT digital identity purposes, like disaggregating down NFT weaponry items into multiple pieces for individual sale. 

 

Cradles: Origin Of Species

Cradles: Origin Of Species is a prehistoric blockchain MMORPG game with the potential to disrupt the entire blockchain gaming world through the power and unique functionality of EIP-3664. These new game NFT attributes can be summarized in four categories 

 

  • Changeable attributes: NFT attack power and life value, both of which can be decreased or increased. 
  • Transferable attributes: NFT attributes can be transferred to other NFTs in the event of destruction or other circumstances. 
  • Upgradeable attributes: Players can pay a fee to upgrade/increase the NFT level, accompanied by the increase of other attribute values. 
  • Evolvable attributes: NFTs that evolve automatically over time, and simulate the time attributes in the real world, so that NFT has the characteristics of time-varying.

 

Limitless Possibilities

These unique new attributes are just a glimpse into the possibilities that EIP-3664 and MetaCore can provide in an NFT context. The flexibility of this versatile architecture provides limitless possibilities for expanding NFT features. For example, previously users could buy an NBA player card, but now they can own an entire team NFT with numerous individual players, all of which can be disassembled for individual sales and have varying functions and stats.  

 

EIP-3664 smart contracts may be reused as building blocks to create an infinite number of new use cases for blockchain technology that goes beyond the theoretical. MetaCore is now looking towards NFT game collaborations as its explosion into the Metaverse begins. All features now are available on Legoot, for users to make their first combinable NFT.
