Uniswap (UNI) Acquired "Anon Island"
The second season of The Game, titled "Anon Island" drew a global audience of more than 800 crypto enthusiasts and generated a net prize pool that surpassed $281,000. The game elicited a significant amount of conversation on Crypto Twitter and included a variety of captivating in-app mechanics.
As part of the acquisition, all members of the Crypto: The Game (CTG) team will join Uniswap Labs, where they will continue their work on the eagerly anticipated season 3. Furthermore, the Uniswap community intends to conduct experiments with on-chain activations, as planned by CTG contributors and Uniswap.
According to representatives from Uniswap, the operational workflow for Crypto: The Game will remain unaltered. Season 3 will introduce new themes, variations, and on-chain features. In previous seasons, contestants invested 0.1 ETH, joined communities, engaged in daily challenges, and voted each other out throughout a 10-day season until a single individual emerged victorious with the entire prize pool.
