LONDON – January 19, 2022 – vEmpire DDAO (https://v-empire.io/), the world's largest decentralized Metaverse, NFT and GameFi investment organization, today published their Q4 investor report and overall 2021 performance results to showcase their protocol's growth and successes. In a year of immense Metaverse and NFT vertical growth, vEmpire became a frontrunner in early adoption of new Web3 technologies geared towards the Metaverse and Metaverse property investments, while exhibiting significant gains and accomplishments beyond the expected 2021 performance roadmap. 

The year-end report, compiled by vEmpire, discloses it's staking strategies carried out across Ethereum, Decentraland, Sandbox, Axie Infinity, and Starlink, leading to unrealized profits surpassing $4 million in the final quarter of 2021 alone. As early adopters of the Metaverse, vEmpire's NFT sales amounted to an additional $500,000 and supplemented with newly acquired valuable investments, at roughly ninety percent below current market value, concluding vEmpire's 2021 annualized profits at more than $18.5 million and a price-earnings ratio of 1.44, 20 times lower than the average company in the S&P 500 today. For 2022, vEmpire's objective will remain spurring growth and decentralization of Metaverses.

“Our users have contributed to staking tens of millions of dollars worth of Metaverse tokens on our platform, which has enabled us to build a decentralized Metaverse investment portfolio that represents the largest in the industry.” said Dom Ryder, founder of vEmpire. 

“Overall we are extremely pleased with the performance and the quality assets we have acquired over the past quarter. I am pleased to say we are very much on track for the remainder of our roadmap. We are still incredibly early to the Metaverse.”

 

vEmpire's staking strategies have seen success through all of 2021. Their ETH pool allows access for more individuals to the expensive, but profitable, blue chip NFT protocols like Bored Ape Yacht Club. vEmpire's ETH staking pool was incepted with 518.7 ETH and it's value, as measured by lowest equivalent asset floor, is now 1,021.5 ETH, almost doubling in value.

Meanwhile, vEmpire's Metaverse staking options in Metaverses like Decentraland, Sandbox, Starlink and others allow investors to partake in early allocation and investment of valuable plots within Metaverses. vEmpire's Metaverse staking strategies provided opportunity for investors to earn passive income from their investment at high rates through in-Metaverse opportunities such as play-to-earn gaming, event planning, and hosting. They will soon be adding real estate resales as an additional feature of the Metaverse to be enjoyed by all users.

At vEmpire, 2021 was spent on portfolio creation through acquisition of properties and NFTs, their goals for Q1 of 2022 will focus on building liquidity for the protocols staking pools. Emerging from a successful 2021 and looking ahead to 2022, vEmpire is positioned to increase opportunities for long-term investment through newly added staking pools, blockchain-agnostic utility and more partnerships.

-- vEmpire DDAO (https://v-empire.digital/), a project dedicated to restoring fairness to the Metaverse, today announced that it has become an exclusive sponsor of an innovative blockchain project and top 250 ranked token, “Tenset.” Tenset describe themselves as the world's first blockchain-based project that combines dividend shares with the best cryptocurrency projects. With the sponsorship, Tenset will provide vEmpire with marketing support and a great network of users and investors to help grow and expand vEmpire's influence and reach throughout the industry.

“Being a diamond sponsor is a great honor as it's Tenset's top sponsorship level and effectively provides their “stamp-of-approval” as a top-tier cryptocurrency project. It is also the top sponsorship level of their Infinity platform, which is a launchpad that incubates some of the industry's most promising projects,” said Dom Ryder, Founder of vEmpire. “We hope that this will enhance vEmpire's reputation and influence throughout the industry and we can't wait to continue building the future of Web3 and decentralized technologies with a project as influential and innovative as Tenset.”

Tenset is very peculiar with projects they allow to become diamond sponsors, to ensure their investor base can easily distinguish the good projects from the great. 

With this partnership, Tenset will ensure vEmpire receives exclusive marketing and networking support from Tenset to enhance vEmpire's reputation as the largest and best-decentralized Metaverse and GameFi investment organization.

This will help with vEmpire's mission of lowering the barrier to entry in GameFi and Metaversal protocols.

vEmpire DDAO (https://v-empire.digital/), a project dedicated to restoring fairness to the Metaverse, today announced the launch of vEmpire: “The Beginning,” a blockchain-based two-player trading card game, that revolves around the expansion of a fictional empire by invading “decentraland,” a part of the metaverse and a tug-of-war for power between Romulus and Remus, two sons of a former emperor, staunch enemies of each other.

Romulus is a strong leader, who wins hearts with responsibility and promises of power and wealth. In contrast, Remus is sly and conniving, using underhand tactics to gain an advantage in a battle. While not as popular as Romulus, Remus cannot be bested easily in the long run.

Players get to choose which faction that they would like to play as. They will then be automatically matched up with an opponent taking the opposite side. Each faction has up to 40 faction-specific cards, as well as 12 universal cards that belong to both factions. When preparing for battle, players must choose 25 cards from their deck, which will make up their “Legion”.

“Each brother has at his disposal an army, with troops who have unique abilities. Players can choose their soldiers for different scenarios to counter any advantage their opponent might have. Players can either take an “all-out” attack approach, and throw their strongest troops at their opponent to win through brute force, or use tactics to outplay opponents by strategically removing their key players and increasing the number of cards in hand,” Dom Ryder, Founder of vEmpire said.

“Players are required to choose a faction and back a brother to the end, seeing him to his rightful place as the new Emperor. Players have to invest their time and resources to train their army into an unstoppable force, to conquer the Metaverse.”

Each player is randomly assigned a hand of 15 cards from their Legion. The remaining cards go into their “Battle Deck”. Although players' hands are dealt only 15 cards, some cards have abilities that enable players to dip into their Battle Deck, and access cards that they may not have been assigned in their original hand.

A virtual coin is flipped at the start of the game and the winner of the coin toss gets to play the first card. Players then take turns to play their cards until either both players decide to end the round or run out of cards.

Although the objective is to win rounds, there are a total of three rounds to play. This means that players will need to keep cards in reserve for later rounds. If a player runs out of cards before the game finishes, they will forfeit the following rounds. At the end of each round, all cards on the battlefield are sent to each player's respective discard pile and the following rounds are played with the cards remaining in the player's hand.

For holders of any of the Founding Soldiers NFTs, when choosing their Legion, if a card is picked for which they own the NFT for, they will be able to take the NFT and visually replace the generic card in play. While owning the NFT of a respective card will provide in-game boosts, the significance of the boost will not be overpowered and strategy will still primarily dictate the winner. In-game boosts simply give players an edge in battle.

Players are encouraged to have a powerful computer and graphics card to enjoy the games' fullest potential. The game is not currently operational on Macbooks. For more information and to download the game, visit: https://www.sandbox.game/en/create/game-maker/.

vEmpire (https://www.v-empire.digital/), a project dedicated to restoring fairness to the Metaverse, has partnered with The Antara Universe to develop the official Antara strategy game based on the upcoming $50M “Antara” feature film, the first Hollywood Movie in history supported by NFTs. The Antara film is part of a broader transmedia rollout by the Arabian Camels community, and also includes the “Antara Strategy Game,” developed by vEmpire. Both Antara IP and vEmpire understand the importance of building utility for NFT projects, so holders of the Arabian Camels and The Founding Soldiers, vEmpire's NFT series, will automatically qualify to be gifted tokens for the official Antara game via an airdrop. 

The Antara film will be supported by the sale of new upcoming Movie NFTs, which will be a sequel to the original Arabian Camels NFT collection of 12,012 uniquely generated digital collectibles living on the Ethereum blockchain.  

The first iteration of Arabian Camels (Gen 1) available on OpenSea, provides added boosts and benefits for gameplay such as the ability to use Camels to conduct raids in the game. Players who don't own Camels can also effectively rent them from the NFT holders to enable more advanced & potentially higher-yielding gameplay. The upcoming Gen 2 Arabian Camels Movie NFTs will include exclusive rights to the Antara movie, allowing for shared ownership of the IP. Demand for the NFTs is expected to increase exponentially given the launch of the game and movie in the coming months. 

“vEmpire DDAO was an easy choice to partner with for our game production. vEmpire has the unique ability and experience in not just one, but across all of the major Metaverses. Alongside this, their own gaming experience and multidimensional thinking gives us a broader scope when choosing where Antara can put its roots down,” said Alexander Amartei, producer of Antara.

“It's a great honor to partner and be involved in a project that will go down in history as the first of its kind. At vEmpire, we understand that NFTs are a disruptive technology that will significantly improve a multitude of industries. Developing the official game for a historic feature film, that will change the landscape of how movies are produced, is something that we're very excited and proud to be involved with,” commented vEmpire founder Dom Ryder.

This is a monumental achievement for vEmpire as it signifies another major partnership, this time partnering with a historic project, to develop the first blockchain-based game based on the first feature film supported by NFTs. This will help vEmpire expand its reach in the metaverse and benefit from any tokens launched for the game and in-game revenue generation.

The Arabian Camels NFTs are available on OpenSea and the new upcoming Movie NFTs, soon to be released, will enable NFT holders to own partial movie rights to the film. 

More information surrounding the upcoming Antara film can be found on the official website or by joining the Arabian Camels Discord community.

vEmpire DDAO (https://v-empire.digital/), the world's first Layer 2 Metaverse protocol that is dedicated to restoring fairness to the Metaverse, today announced that its native token VEMP has bridged over to the Binance Smart Chain (BCS) and is now trading on PancakeSwap.

The listing makes it possible for the vEmpire community to trade $VEMP on one of the world's most popular dApp, using a network with some of the lowest transaction fees in the industry, thereby introducing an entirely new audience to vEmpire.

This integration makes it possible for the entire vEmpire community to provide liquidity on the PancakeSwap platform and earn proportional rewards based on the amount of liquidity that they provide. This is significant for both VEMP holders and the vEmpire project itself as the partnership leverages exposure to Shiba's fast-growing community. 

We are happy to announce that we have bridged over to the Binance Smart Chain,” said Dom Ryder, Founder and CEO of vEmpire. “We look forward to integrating with one of the most engaging communities in the industry and we hope that we can introduce many of these passionate crypto natives to vEmpire.”

The ultimate goal of vEmpire is to introduce more crypto enthusiasts to vEmpire's mission of fighting against centralization by keeping decentralized Metaverse projects decentralized. It does this through its democratic DAO and platform for collateralizing Metaverse tokens, whereby stakers can earn financial rewards derived from profits across over five Metaverses.
