Sports games on the blockchain, whether using NFTs or not, are becoming increasingly common. We've already published an article on football and cryptocurrencies , which are certainly the most popular. However, other sports are also represented, much to everyone's delight.
This is what we offer you in this short article which I hope will help you find the ideal platform for your favorite sport.
I prefer to tell you straight away that the games we are going to see concern Formula 1 and horse racing games. For what? These are the most successful games currently found in crypto sports games.
Most certainly, in the near future, other sports will get involved. Let's have patience!
F1 Delta Time: The Formula 1 game
F1 Delta Time is a game built on Ethereum where players can collect NFT cars, race tracks, drivers, and even car components. In fact, car components help improve the performance of the car or driver. This will give players a greater chance of winning races. To win races, the team must have the best characteristics (speed, endurance, etc.).
The game has its native ERC-20 token: REVV. It is the in-game currency with which one can purchase NFT items and receive rewards.
Indeed, the goal of the players is to earn money by playing this game. Here are the two main ways to do it:
- Buy NFT car components and resell them for added value.
- Players can participate in tournaments and competitions to earn REVV tokens.
- Recently, players can also stake tokens to generate passive income.
The game has everything to please Formula 1 fans, we want to say. It is also believed that the game will also add new features over time. Remember, we are still at the beginning of this crypto gaming industry!
Trade Race Manager: Formula 1 coupled with trading.
IOI is a game available on the Matic (Polygon), Binance Smart Chain, and TRON networks . In fact, the game uses Ethereum's Layer 2 solution with lower fees, which may reassure players.
The game token is IOI and can be exchanged on several platforms including Kucoin, Gate.io, Pancakeswap and uniswap.
What's interesting about TradeRaceManager is that simply having the best components (and therefore the most money) isn't enough to guarantee victory. To win, you need to identify the tokens that will appreciate the most. Yes, players have a dashboard connected to real-time trading platforms. This, in our opinion, provides a more ethical chance of winning.
The other advantage of the game is the nature of the rewards. You can certainly win NFTs, but the game also offers laptops, phones and Fiat money. This can motivate players more.
The game also offers its own IOI Wallet (which is not yet available) in which you can stack tokens.
We wrote an article about Trade Race Manager if you want to know more.
DeRace: Even better than horse racing betting
This is a game we discovered on DaoMaker that we think is particularly interesting for those who enjoy DeFi. It's currently available on Ethereum, and we hope it will soon be available on other, less expensive networks.
If you enjoy crypto sports betting, you might like this game. Similarly, if you use sites like Cloudbet, you'll find it a good alternative.
The game's concept is to collect horses, breed them, and race them to win prizes. That said, the game isn't geared towards traditional horse racing but rather horse racing betting. If you enjoy sports betting with Bitcoin , for example, this could be a good alternative.
Each horse (represented) has its own unique characteristics and genetics that determine its visual appearance and racing performance. These horses are represented by NFTs. To invest, you can decide to purchase NFT horses on the DeRace marketplace or marketplaces secondary NFTs like on Opensea.
At the time of writing, the game is still in beta. Currently, the only thing we can do is engage in liquidity mining by providing liquidity.
Reminder: If you are a beginner, take the time to read the tutorials (we will prepare one if you ask) because there are elements to take into account before investing. It's on the Challenge and it carries risks. This can be very expensive in terms of fees, we must be clear!
Zed Run: The DeFi version of the horse racing game
Zed Run has everything of a great horse racing game, whether it's the interface or the quality of the game concept.
In some ways, it reminds us of the game WavesDuck because it also has a "breeding" system (mating NFT horses to create new breeds). This system is very interesting because you can create new NFTs and thus multiply your sources of income (more races, more sales, etc.).
At the time of writing this article, the horses available on the site have already been sold and can be found on Opensea. This is what we did and bought a few horses for less than 150 euros (for the current price).
This is again a game built on Ethereum and the game has not yet launched its native token. You can nevertheless obtain horses with ETH. On Opensea, you can also buy horses in ETH via Polygon. This keeps costs down and is always nice.
Zed Run has managed to gain a large community and its development phases are very promising. This is also one of the most popular sports games.
This is typically a game that we will follow closely because we really like the concept and the way it is built.
Final Word on Sports Gaming on Blockchain
The crypto sports games presented here are hosted on the Ethereum blockchain and require rather high fees. We advise you not to succumb to FOMO and do your research before investing.
If the sports category is not your strong point, know that there are dozens and dozens of Play To Earn games that are not related to bitcoin sports betting that may suit you.
We are preparing topics on certain games and do not hesitate to give us your opinions for the games you want to understand (with tutorial etc).
Otherwise and above all, have fun!
