Leading blockchain-powered watch and earn platform Verasity has reportedly partnered with Axie Infinity, a Pokémon-inspired digital universe where individuals can earn tokens through competent gameplay and ecosystem contributions, for the FTX GalAxie Cup 2021.
VeraEsports, Verasity’s video streaming platform, will be the online tournament's official broadcast and esports platform partner. The tournament will be streamed exclusively on galaxiecup.com and veraesports.com, both of which will broadcast the event utilizing Verasity's VeraPlayer.
This is a unique collaboration as the FTX GalAxie Cup is the first to use and incorporate Verasity's patented blockchain technology in an official tournament.
For the uninitiated, the FTX GalAxie Cup is Axie Infinity's first professional esports event for NFT-based gaming and marks the company's venture into the realm of esports. The tournament is scheduled to begin on 27th November, with participation from both public and professional guilds.
Last month, the FTX GalAxie Cup opened for registration to players all around the world, and the response was positive, sources cited.
Program Lead for Esports & Content Creators at Axie Infinity, Andrew Campbell, stated this Axie Esports pre-season, which included a 5,000 AXS (approximately USD 6,74,700) prize pool, laid a strong foundation for their competitive scene. Tournament organizers have been arranging incredible community events that will continue bringing out the best in their community, he added.
Verasity CEO RJ Mark mentioned that they are glad to offer their VeraPlayer for the FTX GalAxie Cup 2021. They believe that collaborating on blockchain initiatives will benefit all parties involved, and they are looking forward to this opportunity.
The partnership will offer viewers to earn special awards accessible on the VeraEsports Rewards Store. Redeemable items include custom Axie Infinity NFTs (AXIES) for the event, and USD VRA tokens, as well as other exclusive items.
