Web3 MMORPG Lumiterra has officially kicked off MegaDrop Part 1, a massive in-game rewards campaign tied directly to player engagement. At the center of this launch is a new partnership with Kaito, where players can earn $LUMI tokens and NFTs by creating and sharing content. This marks a new phase in Lumiterra's play to own journey.
Lumiterra is an open-world fantasy MMORPG that runs fully onchain. Players can explore, fight, farm, trade, and build. Unlike web2 MMOs, everything you make or earn in Lumiterra is player-owned. From crafting weapons to staking gear and building your home, the game's economy is shaped by its players. With strategy-based gameplay and a real-time market, Lumiterra has built a complex ecosystem from the ground up.
Since early 2024, the game has gone through four major beta tests. So far, Lumiterra has recorded more than 1.76 million unique wallets and over 28.8 million onchain transactions. The game also saw $15.6 million in marketplace trading volume, with an average daily active wallet count reaching 182K during its CBT phases.
Based on the announcement, MegaDrop is Lumiterra's way of rewarding early supporters with $LUMI tokens. In Part 1, up to 10% of the total $LUMI token supply is being allocated to the community. This includes players who stake in-game assets, contribute content on Kaito, or own Lumi Fragments or Mystery Boxes.
The distribution is split into three separate pools:
There are multiple ways to get started. Those who already hold Lumiterra in-game assets can stake them to earn points. These points determine your share of the $LUMI rewards pool. Each item has a "Wealth Value," and staking extra $LUA tokens can boost your multiplier up to 3x. The earlier you stake, the more points you can earn, with bonus multipliers available in the first two weeks.
You can also join the Yapper Leaderboard. By posting gameplay videos, memes, guides, or clips on Kaito, you collect points based on your rank. These are pooled into the same reward system as asset staking, allowing content creators to compete with asset holders for $LUMI.
If you took part in previous betas and earned Mystery Boxes, you're already eligible for a piece of the pool, no action needed. Daily Lumi Fragment claimers can also join a separate reward group, sharing 1% of the total token supply.
$LUMI is more than just a reward; it's the heart of Lumiterra's economy. It gives holders governance rights and a share of platform revenue. The token also ties into gameplay, letting players stake, upgrade, and trade within the game world.
As players earn $LUMI, they gain a voice in how the project evolves. They can vote on future updates, protocol changes, and economy adjustments. This aligns with Lumiterra's mission to remain player-driven.
Kaito's campaign with Lumiterra is one of the first large-scale yap to earn systems in web3 gaming. Anyone can take part by posting on Kaito about Lumiterra. The more engaging or helpful your posts are, the higher you climb the leaderboard.
Yappers and stakers split the same reward pool, with points tracked separately. The campaign incentivizes quality posts and strong community engagement, rather than just wallet size.
With that, MegaDrop Part 1 is just the beginning. Future phases of the campaign will include new ways to earn and new user groups. According to the team, MegaDrop Part 2 will introduce lock and vesting rules while broadening access to even more players. It will continue building on Lumiterra's goal to reward community effort and create a player-driven economy.
