CyBall Holds “Triple IGO” For Its NFT Game

CyBall is short for CyBloc Football. To explain, CyBlocs are the individual NFTs that players buy and use in the game. However, CyBall isn’t just a soccer simulation game like FIFA, for example. In fact, CyBall is a turn-based card game that combines elements of strategy and chance, as well as simulation.

What’s more, players can trade and loan out their CyBloc NFTs with other CyBall players. Not to mention that they can use their existing CyBloc NFTs to “mentor” young CyBlocs, thus creating new unique NFTs. With all that said, players still do compete with each other to see who can score the most goals in games.

To raise the funds, CyBall held what it called “The World’s First Triple IGO Event”. In other words, it held its initial game offering (IGO) on three different platforms at once. These platforms were Binance NFT, GuildFi, and its own website. Bitkraft led the round, which also included the biggest name in blockchain game investing, Animoca Brands.

All things considered, the team aims to be pioneers in blockchain gaming. And they’re hoping that their choice of game style helps them do it. To this end, CyBall co-founder, Tin Tran, said in a statement about the seed round, “We incorporated football [soccer], the world’s most popular sport, to reach a new audience that might not have experienced the rewards of blockchain gaming.”

The successful seed round comes barely a month after CyBall sold out its genesis NFTs in a single minute. As a mater of fact, CyBall is the all-time best selling NFT collection on Binance NFT as of now. At this point, CyBall is only on Binance NFT but has plans to be on Solana in the near future.
