Anomaly, an AI-powered blockchain gaming platform, saw its Genesis Passport NFTs mint out within seconds on June 6.
The collection of 888 free-to-mint NFTs were all claimed during the initial ‘guaranteed whitelist phase’, with the total trading volume on platforms such as OpenSea and Blur exceeding 20 ETH just four hours post-mint. At the time of writing, the current floor price sits at 0.03 ETH.
Backed by venture funds such as Shima Capital and Decasonic, this Genesis Passport collection intends to support Anomaly Games’ upcoming nodes campaign.
What utility do these Genesis Passport NFTs have?
Genesis Passport holders will benefit from an airdrop of the platform’s native $NOM token, launching later in 2024.
Anomaly’s AI-powered SDK facilitates the creation and deployment of minigames on social media platforms like Telegram and Discord.
These AI functionalities include player-model training, matchmaking, automated quest creation and in-game asset generation, aimed at simplifying the game development experience.
Combining SocialFi with AI Gaming
Anomaly aims to simplify web3 gaming by providing “immersive social gaming experiences” through “easy-to-play mini-games and straightforward reward mechanisms.”
“At Anomaly, we aim to connect with the community by providing immersive social gaming experiences on widely used platforms, featuring easy-to-play mini-games and straightforward reward mechanisms,” said Long Do, CEO and Founder of Anomaly.
“Our technology aims to onboard Telegram users as web3 gamers and node operators/benefactors. We’re thrilled by the support we’ve received so far. The collection will operate as a passport and key to the Anomaly universe.”
The company uses a Layer-3 chain for game development and monetization, providing a cost-effective environment for creating blockchain games, with user-friendly features such as social onboarding, rather than using crypto wallets.
“Popular L2 solutions like Arbitrum and Optimism have captured most users’ attention, but Layer-3 has emerged in recent times to provide game developers with higher levels of customizability,” Do added.
Anomaly’s Strong Backing and Strategic Partnerships
Anomaly Games recently completed a pre-seed fundraising round, led by Decasonic, with participation from Shima Capital, Round 13, and Zeneca among others.
The company has also partnered with several major IPs both inside and outside the web3 ecosystem, including gaming brands such as Atari and top web3 gaming projects like Zed Run.
With strong venture fund backing, a bevvy of strategic partnerships and their upcoming token on the way, Anomaly is poised to accelerate across the rest of 2024.
