Chainmonsters Alpha 6 officially launched this week, selling out of all 10K alpha passes before going live! The community excitement around B-Side Games’ monster taming game continues to drive serious engagement, with over 35K registered users.
Three tiers of bundles will be available, featuring exclusive wearable NFTs for your in-game character, as well as the legendary bundle which features one of the rarest Chainmons in the game, the Amber Chainmon. Only 1000 Amber Chainmons will ever exist, with 800 being sold with the Genesis drop, and the additional 200 being released over the lifetime of the game.
And with Chainmonsters in its final alpha phase, that means the open Beta is just around the corner. Not only will you get to use your Genesis drop unlockables, but for users who just want to check the game out, it will be completely free to play!
There is SO MUCH activity across the Flow ecosystem! That’s why we’re kicking off the State of Flow series, which will highlight the different sectors on Flow. Whether it’s digging into collectible platforms, or detailing partners launching educational resources for Flow developers, surfacing the map of the entire ecosystem will paint the picture of what’s being built on Flow.
To get things started, we share an overview of how there’s something being built for everyone on Flow. Whether you want to collect historical world events via Vault by CNN, love browsing the VIV3 marketplace for a variety of NFTs, have a Blocto wallet full of Flow powered collectibles, or are a developer looking for educational resources and partners, everything is coming to life in the thriving Flow ecosystem.
And with that, we’d like to welcome everybody to the State of Flow! Give our opener a read and prepare to learn more about what’s going on around the ecosystem as the series delves into each corner and avenue!
Join the RCRDSHP music revolution
Are you ready to join the next revolution in music distribution, ownership and peer-to-peer sharing? RCRDSHP is a curated digital collectibles experience, built by and for electronic music fans and artists. Collect tracks, mixtapes, video clips, art and more either via pack drop, or on the RCRDSHP marketplace.
Both RCRDSHP drops have sold out thus far, with community sentiment soaring with the reveal of the new platform for music lovers. One of the key innovations of RCRDSHP is musicians earning long tail royalties on secondary marketplace sales, giving creators a new way to earn with their art long-term.
(Oh, and it’s pronounced Record Shop, in case you were wondering!)
