Games covered
Sidus NFT Heroes
Sidus is a futuristic style, play to earn MMORPG with amazing visuals and great tokens.
The two tokens on Sidus are:
- SIDUS HEROES which is the in game token earnable with gameplay – this coin will lose value when the game gets going
- SENATE DAO which is the governance token – this is the one you want to buy if your looking to invest in this game
Guild of Guardians
Super hyped fantasy RPG mobile centric game. Built by Stepico and published by Immutable. Great backing such as Ubisoft, NRG and Yield Guild. Currently with 150 000 player pre registered. Not listed on many top tier exchanges, currently only notable ones are FTX, OKEx and Uniswap. Long vesting, 12 months vesting for private sales. No private or strategic unlocks for that time. Very strong project.
Decimated
A 3d third person perspective futuristic RPG created on the Unreal Engine. Very beautiful graphics and in development since 2019. Hustle feels that because of the fact that they focused on developing the game and less on profits that this is a very bullish game token to get involved in. Currently only trading on Raydium and Huobi Global.
Tiny Colony
Tiny colony is a construction and management simulation blockchain game where you help create and defend a colony of very advanced ants.
Hustle is positive about this project and believes the pixelated graphic style has great appeal. Good project to keep your eyes on.
Coins covered
Phantasma
Layer one block chain built specifically to power games and smart NFT’s.
Powered by SOL. It’s a Single source solution for developers and users. Two tokens with SOUL as the governance token and KCAL as the utility token.
Sand
SAND is the native token for The Sandbox Metaverse. Hard to call it just a metaverse of just a game, it’s somewhere in the middel.
There is a huge token unlock coming during this month and the liquidity will definitely affect the price.
Staking Plays
Ronin
Ronin is the purpose built blockchain by Axie Infinity. Originally on the ETH blockchain the change was made due to it being too expensive. It’s super fast, cheap and gaming specialist. Currently the number 2 most transacted by volume on the entire NFT spectrum, beaten only by Ethereum.
Sky Mavis, the company behind Axie, will certainly release more games in the future and they will most likely use their own super fast cheap blockchain for these games. Could be a good one to invest in long term.
Offers great farming on AXS/WETH to claim WRON tokens. The APY is not great due to the saturation of the pool but the goal is to get your hand on WRON begore launch at which point it should shoot up in value. Get pre-ido tokens.
DeFi kingdoms
They have essentially gamified making money. Built on the harmony one blockchain. You can stake your JEWEL-ONE to earn JEWL at the bank to earn from transaction on the network and also on the farm where you can receive 496% APR to mention only two staking opportunities.
Niching Down
Hustle urges us to niche down and decide how we want to invest. Choose a specific niche and build a plan around it rather than trying to shoot too wide.
Words of wisdom
Investing in crypto is risky, investing in a single blockchain game is super risky because most games will not stand the test of time. It is far wiser to invest in the picks and shovels during a gold rush than it is to invest in a single miner.
When investing in a game you need to DYOR. Who are the teams behind it? Are they top level and have they actually worked on games? Look for track records so when someone claims they worked for a large gaming studio, check how long they were there and how much work did they actually do for the games.
