Less than 3 weeks after the 1st drop, Dogami smashes 1 Million XTZ in volume on objkt.com, confirming the growing momentum for this pet avatar-oriented project on Tezos.
Dogami is not the first Tezos NFT project to record 1 million XTZ. Another Tezos project Tezzardz has 1.75 million XTZ total volume but Dogami has achieved this in less than a month which is phenomenol.
The DOGAMI project
DOGAMI is planning to launch the Petaverse, a Metaverse in which humans and their pets can live together, as well as try new things together.
The DOGAMÍ NFT project includes nearly 300 dog breeds, each with its own set of qualities and characteristics. These pet based NFTs are available in four levels of rarity: Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Diamond.
Dogami NFT owners can use augmented reality and the DOGAMÍ app on their mobile devices to engage with their Dogami.
Taking the Dogami NFT into the Petaverse empowers users for extensive exploration of a virtual world. NFT owners can also train, customise, and build qualities, as well as compete in challenges. The P2E concept requires these challenges to reward players. Ranking high by competing in these challenges rewards players more $DOGA tokens.
A beta version of the Dogami P2E game will launch in Q2 2022, and DOGAMÍ will gain DeFi features (farming and staking) to enhance its appeal.
One must mint one of the 8,000 NFTs from the Dogami collection to gain entry into the DOGAMI Petaverse. The price per NFT is set at 50 XTZ, and it can only be done using dedicated Tezos wallets, not centralised exchange wallet addresses.
Dogamí NFT minting started on February 22.
Dogami has got strong community support
The DOGAMÍ project has been able to attract strong interest from NFT enthusiasts worldwide. Dogami claims that its community has grown to over 80,000 members worldwide, with 28% of the members creating a Discord account for the sole purpose of accessing DOGAMÍ.
Furthermore, DOGAMÍ notes over 13 international communities and a constant Discord activity level of 10-20% of the total member count.
Moreover, the recent free NFT of Doga Bones giveaway received over 27,000 entries, confirming strong community support for this project. This NFT drop also gained the number 1 Hot Collection spot on Objkt. It is the first project as a free NFT airdrop to hit that spot.
DOGAMÍ is backed by Prominent gaming companies, metaverse pioneers, and blockchain leaders
The Tezos-powered mass-market play-to-earn NFT DOGAMÍ petaverse project has secured $6 million in pre-seed funding from prominent gaming companies, metaverse pioneers, and blockchain leaders such as Ubisoft, Animoca Brands, The Sandbox’s co-founders, XAnge, Blockchain Founder Fund, and Draper Goren Holm.
Dogami intends to use the fund to build the future of pet ownership 3.0 and the role of blockchain technology in these proceedings.
DOGAMÍ is attracting a huge attention from gaming space and pet ownership. The pre-seed funding is the testament of approval from various cross-industry blockchain leaders.
Ubisoft VP Strategic Innovation Lab Nicolas Pouard stated:
“At Ubisoft, we believe that blockchain holds a key to the future of the videogame industry, bringing new possibilities for players and developers alike. We think DOGAMÍ shares this vision and contributes to the opening of blockchain gaming to mainstream players.”
DOGAMÍ Partners With Sandbox
DOGAMÍ P2E game last week entered into a partnership with the Sandbox to bring its dog avatars into the Metaverse, marking a significant milestone for the project.
This is the first time a palyable pet will walk into The Sandbox who until today only had four-legged avatars as NPCs (non-playable characters). This definitely marks a new step in The Sandbox experience for all holders of pet avatars.
DOGAMÍ has acquired a 3×3 Estate S-LAND to establish a Community Hub and introduce the first-ever pet-friendly experience in The Sandbox.
DOGAMÍ is planning enable NFT holders to walk around with their Dogamí Voxel avatars, skate in the DOGA House skatepark, and engage in social activities with other Dogamers, before the end of the year. Dogami avatars and their owners will jointly discover various hidden secrets and easter eggs of the DOGAMÍ project, vision, and history. Additionally, the skatepark will enable the purchase of voxel accessories through the DOGA House virtual skate shop.
DOGAMÍ and The Sandbox has planned to host two separate giveaways to commemorate this crucial partnership.
- DOGAMÍ Discord members can win five Sandbox Alpha passes
- The Sandbox community members can win five limited-edition voxel DOGAMÍ avatars
Sebastien BORGET, COO & Co-Founder of The Sandbox said:
“We welcome the Dogamí pet-lovers community into The Sandbox – we are pleased to allow the Dogamers to play with their virtual dog companions. the Dogami NFTs. We hope to expand their creative universe with our no-code Game Maker creation tool, inspiring new types of adventures and experiences alongside their virtual companion. As part of this partnership, Dogamí team is also unveiling the first application of a cross-chain interoperability bridge between Tezos and Ethereum. We’re really thrilled by the possibilities.”
