SolChicks is Bursting Onto the NFT Scene with New P2E Game

Hong Kong – 24/11/2021

SolChicks, a play-to-earn MMORPG game made for the Solana blockchain, is already breaking records in the days before its long-awaited IDO launch on 26 November 2021. SolChicks has made some major steps (and even broken a few records) in the past week alone:

  • SolChicks ranked #1 on CoinMarketCap, #1 P2E game on Solana P2E, and #1 hottest NFT collection on Solanart.
  • The SolChicks game demo attracted over 50,000 players in only the first week of its release.
  • The game launched simultaneously on a record-breaking number of launchpads (over 30 launchpad participants including most of the major launchpads across all blockchains).
  • The project has experienced significant social media growth in the seven days following the game’s demo release, with Twitter followers increasing from 26k to 150k (+580%), Telegram followers from 13k to 125k (+960%), and Discord followers from 66k to 110k (+67%).
  • The floor price of the SolChicks NFT has risen from 1.8 SOL to 17 SOL (+844%), equating to around US$3,500 for the lowest price NFT available.
  • SolChicks NFTs with rare attributes have sold for as much as 160 SOL (US$35,000).
  • The project boasts a record number of private investors, with 328 private investors, including well-known VC’s such as Blocore, AirAngels, GoldenTree, GD10, MetaVest Capital, Spartan Group, and Master Ventures; major gaming guilds such as Yield Guild Games; key opinion leaders such as Crypto Banter and CryptoBirb; and a number of high profiled angels.

SolChicks is making a name for itself as one of the fastest-growing P2E games on the blockchain. The alpha version is scheduled for release in the first quarter of 2022, with the full game expected to follow in late 2022.

Here’s what the SolChicks team has to say about the project

SolChicks’ CEO and cofounder William Wu claims that “Play-to-Earn is set to disrupt the traditional gaming sector in ways never seen before. With the backing of our strategic investors, our team is aggressive and relentless in carving out our position as the dominant player in the new era of gaming.”

COO Lewis Grafton commented: “We are breaking new ground as we lead the convergence of blockchain-based gaming that has until now lacked the production quality of traditional games, and also traditional gaming markets that have yet to adopt this new model of player-ownership and rewards.”
