Spells of Genesis, a blockchain-powered trading card game, has seen its popularity skyrocket in just the last few weeks. Spells of Genesis has been on a roller coaster ride since July 2017 when it was released with no marketing or hype and suddenly saw sharp increases in player activity.
The “spells of genesis cards” is a popular card game that has seen an explosion in popularity recently. The game was released in 2016, but only recently has it regained its popularity.
The creator’s account of the pioneering blockchain game looks to be fascinating. EverdreamSoft CEO Shaban Shaame thinks his business created the first blockchain-based game, Spells of Genesis (SoG), in 2015.
At a time when just a few investors and players realized the worth in Bitcoin and blockchain gaming, this trading card game was released. At the time, it was up against a lot of competition from AAA game developers who had switched to a free-to-play model.
Initially, players who achieved a certain level could use the Counterparty protocol to mint in-game cards as tokenized digital assets on the Bitcoin network. Despite years of stagnant sales, SoG was made interoperable with the Ethereum blockchain in 2021. However, it wasn’t until mid-2021 that nonfungible token (NFT) collectors resurrected this game’s rare NFT cards, and sales began to soar.
Other blockchain games, such as CryptoKitties, which allows users to acquire, breed, and sell virtual cats, have previously received attention. In this regard, the CryptoKitties NFT collection, which debuted in 2017, is credited for convincing collectors and players that in-game asset ownership was valuable.
CryptoKitties was placed 15th in terms of volume among the highest traded collections on OpenSea at the time of writing. Shaame, who was an early blockchain enthusiast, stated that he “found a new family” in the cryptocurrency world, which he describes as “brilliant and a little insane.”
He linked Bitcoin’s creation to the internet’s, and he set out to create on-chain valuables that would last beyond the game’s lifespan. Shaame, who has always believed that SoG trading cards will appreciate in value, anticipates these cards being placed in a museum 50 years from now.
Shaame was eager to say that he was caught off guard by the sudden surge in card use and pricing. Finally, he said that he is working on a new initiative that aims to “revolutionise the usage of computers” in the hopes of “changing lives.”
