CryptoChronic: Where free-to-play meets play-to-earn and the rise of the first free-to-earn ecosystem

Share this news:

From its earliest inception, Cryptocurrency was born with the mission to decentralize and democratize finance and the transfer of value. Likewise, Crypto Gaming was conceived with the promise of providing all casual gamers with an opportunity to earn while having fun playing a game.

-- If you're from the Gen Z or Millennial generation, chances are you have been tempted by it, but have been turned off by the high costs, shallow gameplay, scarce utility, lack of value provision and preservation.  These hurdles have turned off the traditional video gaming market, slowing the conversion of casual gamers to crypto and contributing to making the GameFi space ultimately undemocratic. CryptoChronic’s mission is to make crypto gaming democratic again, eliminating this friction and thereby enabling the mass conversion of casual gamers into crypto gamers by providing a freemium, Cannabis-themed metaverse that eschews the high costs associated with competitive games while deeply embedding its NFTs with utility and content to maximize value appreciation.

By leveraging the blockchain, CryptoChronic reinvents Pokémon and Tamagotchi for a new generation with uniquely customizable cannabis-themed characters to collect, breed, raise, nurture, and battle in multiplayer “Smoke Offs”. This creates an interactive non-inflationary ecosystem in which player-owned characters can be generated, earned, developed, traded, sold, and advanced through competitive gameplay. While other games promise only free-to-play, thanks to its private blockchain and game loops designed to reward and provide value at each step, CryptoChronic is where free-to-play meets play-to-earn, giving birth to the first free-to-earn ecosystem, allowing users to make money transparently and consistently without any up-front investment. The game's main in-game assets are "Chronics," which are non-fungible tokens (NFTs) based on a private blockchain hosted on the platform's own servers and built on the CybETH solution. Like other blockchains, its private chain is transparent, immutable, scalable, distributable, upgradeable, permissioned, and notarized. But CryptoChronic’s proprietary one is particularly fast as it processes a 1MB block size every 3 seconds and is therefore 4 times quicker than Ethereum.

Gamers maintain a collection of Chronics, digital pet Cannabis buds, each complete with its own individual personality, visual traits, and gameplay stats.  To start, players are issued 3 of their very own, which are minted for free on the private blockchain. These NFTs are not just pretty faces and are much more than digital art. Utility is not just applied last minute, but rather arises from deep functionality that emerges through 4 game loops, each one feeding into the next and rewarding engagement with value each step of the way. Gamers breed Chronics searching for desirable and rare traits, then nurture them to amplify and maximize them, ultimately utilizing these traits to succeed in battle, accrue EXP, and eventually access the 4th loop by launching them on the public chain and monetizing them in as many three different ways. Users can compete in an official e-sports league tournaments, sire their Chronics to others for breeding, or sell them, all while earning cash and crypto. The only cost associated with monetization is the third-party gas fee, necessary to bridge tokens from the private to the public chain, which gamers may pay only when they choose to do so, as public minting is not required to access any gameplay layers or features.

CryptoChronic further democratizes gaming and removes barriers by applying affordable, standardized pricing uncorrelated to market factors. While gameplay can be enjoyed in full without exterior capital input, all premium features are priced at fixed rates and are small enough to be absorbed even by the casual gamer. This implies that not only the costs are affordable, but they are consistent, predictable, and transparent.  Current competition in fact often ties them to their own tokens and therefore the underlying volatility of the markets contaminates the pricing structure and the very sustainability of the underlying business model. This has, for example, made breeding overly costly and unsustainable within their ecosystems, denying the user a valuable source of income.

In order to appeal to the total potential market of new users, crypto gaming must posit, adopt, and embrace a cheaper, clearer, and more transparent model for the users’ return on their investment in order to attract a larger segment of the gaming public who can then more easily understand and justify the costs associated with playing. CryptoChronic is here to show the way.
