Last week, the virtual world of blockchain gaming witnessed a thrilling collaboration as CyberKongz, a renowned metaverse platform, made two groundbreaking announcements. The first was the release of their new non-fungible token (NFT) collection, Genkai, and the second was the migration of their game, Play and Kollect, from Polygon to the Ronin blockchain, developed by Sky Mavis, the mastermind behind the immensely popular Axie Infinity.
To commemorate these milestones and to foster community engagement, CyberKongz and Axie Infinity joined forces to organize a spectacular art competition. The contest invites artists from across the metaverse to showcase their creativity by submitting unique artworks that bring to life the theme "Genkai meets Axie."
The Genkai NFT collection was successfully launched on the Ronin blockchain on July 27th, marking a momentous achievement for the platform. Over 3,000 CyberKongz Genkai NFTs were minted, adding to the vibrant tapestry of the metaverse. With a price floor of 0.185 ETH and a trading volume of 64 ETH on OpenSea, the collection has already garnered considerable attention from the growing blockchain gaming community.
Entrants are required to share their artistic creations on Twitter, using the hashtag #GenkaiAxieArt, and tagging both the CyberKongz and Axie Infinity profiles. This interactive aspect of the competition not only allows artists to showcase their work but also enables the vibrant metaverse communities to unite, appreciating and celebrating the intersection of Genkai and Axie Infinity.
As the contest deadline of August 11th approaches, anticipation builds as artists eagerly present their unique interpretations of the theme. After the submission phase, a week-long judging period ensues, during which a panel of experts will meticulously evaluate the artworks based on criteria such as creativity, originality, quality, and alignment with the theme.
The winners of the art contest are set to be unveiled on August 21st, igniting further excitement among participants and enthusiasts alike.
