GOAT Gaming has just raised another $4 million in a fresh funding round, pushing its total funding to $15 million. Led by TON Ventures, Karatage, Amber, and Bitscale, the investment will speed up the development of its AI-powered web3 gaming platform.
With that, GOAT Gaming recently launched AlphaGOATs, their AI-driven gaming agents that work round-the-clock, making the idea of "passive gaming" a reality.
GOAT Gaming first launched in June 2024 as a Telegram-based quest platform, allowing players to take on mini-games, complete challenges, and earn rewards. Since then, it has quickly gained traction, bringing AI automation into play to earn.
This latest $4 million round means GOAT Gaming has now amassed a total of $15 million in funding, which will go toward:
According to the team, this funding will also allow them to "deliver seamless, AI-driven gaming experiences to millions of players."
One of the biggest highlights of GOAT Gaming's expansion is AlphaGOATs, AI agents that play, compete, and earn rewards on behalf of users. Essentially, these are AI-powered gaming agents that can:
Some in the community are even calling this "Sleep to Earn," since AlphaGOATs allow players to profit without actively playing. Each AlphaGOAT NFT also comes with 350,000 $GG tokens, GOAT Gaming's soon-to-be-launched cryptocurrency.
As such, GOAT Gaming has now launched its AlphaGOAT Initial Agent Offering (IAO), with the allowlist sale already open and the public sale set for February 6.
AlphaGOATs are being sold in phases, with prices increasing as supply sells out. Here's a look at the pricing for different phases:
Each phase will sell out before the next phase opens, meaning the earlier users get in, the lower the price.
AlphaGOATs can also be upgraded for higher rewards. Here's how:
Pro-AlphaGOATs have the highest earning potential, making them a top choice for those looking to max their passive income.
If you're a Genesis GOAT NFT holder, you'll get:
Snapshots for these perks have already been taken, ensuring holders benefit from the upcoming token launch.
GOAT Gaming is also launching a referral program, allowing buyers to earn by referring friends.
This creates a win-win scenario where both referrers and buyers benefit from discounts and earnings.
Buying an AlphaGOAT is simple:
Once purchased, AlphaGOATs can be managed via GOAT Gaming's exclusive Telegram mini-app, which will go live ahead of the $GG token launch.
With $15 million in funding, an AI-powered gaming ecosystem, and the launch of AlphaGOATs, GOAT Gaming is gearing up for a massive year ahead.
As web3 gaming continues to embrace AI and automation, the latest move sort of signals a shift toward "play-less" earning models. It remains to be seen, though, how this will pan out as AI creates new opportunities for both casual and hardcore gamers.
