In response to the vast market opportunities presented by the gaming industry, the development of blockchain-based gaming initiatives, particularly NFT, has accelerated. NFT converts objects in the gaming scene into extraordinary riches that can be claimed by individual players. With the steady advancement of NFT-related advancements and conventions, as well as the expansion of the Defi project, which provides a more advantageous stage for NFT exchanges, the NFT gaming business is becoming increasingly hot and competitive.

All things DeFi, with features including lending/borrowing and a hybrid liquidity protocol. Hybrid gaming/NFT ecosystem enables the seamless integration of conventional games on the blockchain.

Introducing ETNA Network NFT Game Assets

As many already know, ETNA Networks’ NFTs are gaming assets that would be deployed in the upcoming game. Currently, there are over 30 NFTs trading on the ETNA Network marketplace, these NFTs comprises of game characters, weapons, secret passages, creatures and many more. With each one having it’s uniqueness and specific attributes, they all play a vital role in the upcoming game. Ten of these NFTs are specifically game characters that players can choose as their player character, each of these characters have unique fighting moves and skills which will be disclosed in more details as development progresses.

Below is a list of characters currently trading on ETNA Network NFT Marketplace:

1. Apollo
2. Nyx
3. Arthemis
4. Cyclops
5. Hercules
6. Mercury
7. Wukong
8. Pantara
9. Osiris
10. Eagle

Trading of NFTs on the Marketplace was opened to users on the 15th of April, 2021 with the start price of all the NFTs at 20 ETNA. After about 24Hrs of the opening, all the characters had experienced an exponential price growth. As of the time of writing this article, over 4900 NFTs have been minted and the cheapest of all the NFTs is currently 250 ETNA, a whooping 1,150% growth since its listing on 15th of April, just two months ago.

The Figure show the prices of all characters after 24hrs, 72hrs, and 120hrs of opening. We can see that just in 24hrs, Nyx increased in price to a highest price of ~580.7 ETNA. This represents about 2800% growth, exponential right? To users who bought Nyx within the price range of 20–25 ETNA, this represents a 23–29x on their investment so hell yes, this is exponential.

The price increase in ETNA for all the characters after 24hrs are summarized from the highest to the lowest growth as follows: Nyx (580.69) > Apollo (340.69) > Arthemis (225.88) > Herculus (178.03) > Osiris (173.03) > Mercury (169.63) > Cyclops (148.91) > Eagle (144.77) > Pantara (133.75) > Wukong (133.60). It is evident that after 24hrs, even the least performing character had a price growth of ~568%, still about 7x for early buyers.

After 72hrs, Nyx still maintained it’s position as the highest performing character with it’s price at 645.24 ETNA, representing an increase of ~11% from 580.69 to 645.24 ETNA. Hercules exhibited the highest jump in the price of ~28% from 178.03 to 227.10 ETNA. Also, all other characters showed an increase in price as you can see in the figure.

After 120hrs, Nyx had a slight price a drop from 645.24 to 526.79 ETNA but still maintained it’s position as the best performer. The price of the other characters can be seen in the figure.

So, why are people buying Nyx? Let us learn a bit about Nyx.

Nyx is one of the most feared characters in the game. She doesn’t just steal the magical treasures but kills at the slightest provocation. She is very impatient, furious and fearful. Her greatest strength is her ability to see in darkness and cause the night to fall. She fights more with dark powers than with magic.

Our take is, lots of buyers were intrigued and motivated by her storyline. The truth is, all of these characters are unique and they are all highly valuable as we will see in coming weeks.

Introducing The Ambassador Program

ETNA Network is pleased to announce that we have incorporated an additional rewards/bonus program for our loyal users, this rewards program is called “The Ambassador”

The Ambassador Program is based on a Proof of Commitment type algorithm where users of DeBank are rewarded, or airdropped bonus tokens based on how committed they are.

Two parameters are measured to quantify users’ commitment, these are:

1. The amount of Stable coins or amount of ETNA deposited into DeBank
2. The duration of this deposit.

With this parameter, the quantity of bonus rewards for each user are determined.

The ambassador program will also rank users based on this commitment metric and will give them interesting membership titles. You can be rest assured, a lot of interesting and benefiting features will come with the Ambassador program.

As we all know, we are focused on deploying our mobile app, a multi-blockchain wallet app with DeBank, NFT marketplace, token swap feature and more embedded. For this reason, The Ambassador Program Tab will delay a bit.

But here is the good news, though the tab for this new feature will delay a bit, the bonus program that comes with it will start immediately.

Who qualifies for the additional rewards?

1. Users who deposit at least 500 BUSD or USDT or DAI into DeBank. Users can qualify on multiple deposits, i.e, a user who deposits 5000 BUSD and 1500 USDT will qualify for 500 ETNA in bonus and 150 ETNA in bonus from respective deposits
2. Users who deposit a minimum of 1000 ETNA into DeBank

How often are Bonus rewards airdropped to users?

As it has been mentioned, the reward is paid out is based on commitment therefore only users who make one or more of the above deposits and keep it deposited for at list a month will get paid rewards bonus.

Examples:

A. If a user deposits 5000 BUSD and 1500 USDT . The user left the 5000 BUSD for over a month but withdrew the 1500 USDT after 20 days, the user will only get bonus airdrops for the 500o BUSD

B. If the user withdraw 500 USDT out of the 150O USDT deposited, the commitment count starts all over and if the remaining 1000 USDT still in deposit stays in deposits for a month, then the user will qualify for bonus for the 1000 USDT.

C. The same goes for ETNA, If user deposits 10000 ETNA, he will also qualify for bonus each month the deposit remains in deposits.

Note: Users can qualify for rewards each month. Take for instance, the user who deposited 5000 BUSD. If the user left the 5000 BUSD for 4 months and 10 days, he will qualify for bonus rewards 4 times, one for each month the deposit clocked.

Additional conditions for bonus rewards:

For users who deposits ETNA, only deposits that are not used as collateral for loans will count. Any amount of ETNA that has been used as collateral for loan will not count.
