Briefly Describe your project:
TENAMINT’s project is a Telegram mini-app game aimed at enhancing fan engagement in sports gaming through a Web3 platform. It integrates fantasy sports with token rewards, offering a unique play-to-earn experience for users. The game emphasizes a connected social community and rewards users for their sports knowledge and participation.
What is the USP ( unique selling point) of your game?:
TENAMINT’s game offers a compelling combination of features that not only enhance fan engagement in sports gaming:
- Free Sports Gaming with Rewards: By offering free sports gaming with token rewards, TENAMINT’s game encourages increased participation and engagement within the NEAR gaming ecosystem, directly contributing to the DAO’s objective of growing the active gaming audience and increasing user activity.
- Connected Social Community: The game’s integrated social community feature fosters a sense of belonging and camaraderie among fans, driving community engagement metrics that are crucial for the NEAR Gaming DAO’s mission of enhancing community engagement.
- Play-to-Earn Model: Through its play-to-earn model, TENAMINT incentivizes users to not only play but also actively contribute to the ecosystem by utilizing their sports knowledge. This unique approach aligns with the DAO’s goal of supporting emerging gaming projects by attracting and retaining top talent to the NEAR ecosystem.
- Redeemable Rewards: The ability for users to redeem earned points for tokens, merchandise, tickets, and more not only adds value to the gaming experience but also reinforces brand loyalty and awareness, thereby contributing to the NEAR Gaming DAO’s objective of elevating NEAR’s brand awareness through innovative gaming experiences.
How does your game align with the NDC and Gaming WG KPIs?:
TENAMINT’s Telegram mini-app game aligns closely with the objectives and key performance indicators (KPIs) outlined by the NEAR Gaming DAO. By launching a new game on the NEAR platform, TENAMINT contributes to the ecosystem’s growth in the number of developed games. Additionally, TENAMINT actively engages users through daily, weekly, and monthly contests within the app, driving frequent interactions and increasing Unique Active Wallets (UAW). The integration of referral systems and natural social connectivity through community channels further accelerates growth and UAW metrics. Moreover, TENAMINT fosters a connected social community within its game, enhancing community engagement, which is a key aspect of the NEAR Gaming DAO’s objectives. By organizing a hackathon and offering prizes, including a co-branded prize with NEAR Gaming DAO, TENAMINT attracts top talent to explore game development within the NEAR ecosystem, thus contributing to increased hackathon participation and supporting emerging gaming projects. Furthermore, by developing a game on the NEAR platform and collaborating with NEAR Gaming DAO, TENAMINT contributes to expanding NEAR’s brand awareness, particularly within the gaming community, which can be measured through social media growth metrics
