Taipei, Taiwan, 13th March, 2023, Chainwire
Bloxmith, the player-first Web3 gaming studio, today announced that the open beta for Raiders Rumble, its unique 1v1 squad battler game for mobile powered by the Flow blockchain, is now available for download on Google Play and Apple App Store.
Raiders Rumble challenges players to apply fast-paced strategic decision making in countering the moves of their opponents. Built as a strategic esports game for the masses, it features a daily rotation of tournament modes where the top 50 percent of participants can win in-game items or RUMB tokens, Raiders Rumble’s project token.
Furthermore, players do not need a crypto wallet or digital collectibles (NFTs) to start playing and enjoying the game. To maintain competitive integrity, digital collectibles in Raiders Rumble do not provide any in-battle advantage, though they have several other unique features that make them highly valued by collectors.
“For our first game, we wanted to pioneer a new type of competitive mobile strategy game that would help bridge the gap between traditional and Web3 gamers,” said Bloxmith Co-founder and CEO Wayne Lee. “We are delighted to be working on the Flow blockchain – it solves the scalability problem for games and digital collectibles. With frictionless onboarding, social logins and familiar payment methods, Flow is built from the ground up to make it easier for mainstream users and brands to transition from Web2 to Web3.”
As part of the launch and esports nature of the game, Raiders Rumble will host three Flow-sponsored bonus tournaments. Strategy gamers will have the opportunity to win FLOW tokens, with a total prize pool worth $USD 120,000 in FLOW up for grabs for the best strategy gamers around. These Flow-sponsored tournaments are scheduled to take place between March 23-31, with more details on the Raiders Rumble website here.
“Raiders Rumble is a compelling example of a mobile game that can simultaneously appeal to a mainstream audience while introducing them to the power of Web3 gaming powered by Flow,” said Chirag Narang, Head of Product at Flow. “The Bloxmith team’s innovative take on game design and player onboarding aligns strongly with Flow’s vision and goals for our ecosystem around gaming and onboarding mainstream users to Web3.”

Massive Gaming, NEOWIZ’s overseas affiliate, will launch the global social casino hold’em game House of Poker in March 2023, following the successful opening of the Play and Earn social casino game House of Slots.
House of Poker is an iTech Labs certified global social hold’em game providing users with a fair and realistic gaming experience through various hold’em tournament contents and live face chat. Through the Play and Earn system, users will be able to receive stored rewards in a decentralized way. This provides an opportunity for users of House of Poker to more fully own their value in the game. To this end, the IntellaX ecosystem developed by NEOWIZ in partnership with Polygon is already being serviced globally.
With the adoption of USDC as a stable coin global users can play various social casino hold’em games for free and earn blockchain Stable Token (USDC) with specific goods provided by the game. The adoption of this stablecoin helps future-proof the game in case there is a decline in the value of the game’s own token which has been the biggest issue in existing WEB3-based games released so far. As Play and Earn users contribute to the game and receive rewards we hope that users will enjoy the benefits of participating in future events.
In the meantime, the experimental combination of Play and Earn games based on blockchain technology, mainly for small and medium-sized game developers, has been active, but it has become an economic structure that does not provide stable and fair benefits to users as it benefits only developers due to token minting profits. However, House of Poker is the world’s first social casino hold’em game service based on blockchain technology that applies the Play and Earn structure that can fairly benefit users according to the contribution of stable USDC.

Singapore-registered cryptocurrency company MinePlex is refuting recent allegations of illegal activities in Vietnam. The company denies all claims made in a report by Vietnamese TV channel VTV, which accused MinePlex of illegal activities.
MinePlex clarifies that it is registered in Singapore as MINEPLEX PTE. LTD. Thus it operates as a legal entity in accordance with the Singapore law. Operating since 2020, MinePlex has brought to market working Blockchain-based products such as Explorer, Wallet, Payments, Finance, Marketplace and more. “Already 2.5 years ago, the MinePlex technology was recognized as unique in the world media.
The MinePlex blockchain is based on the work of two tokens. One mines the other. This is written in a mathematical algorithm and the company cannot interrupt this process in any way.”
The company also partners with a major Brazil-based bank when offering finance-related services, such as payment cards and accounts, and its services can’t be qualified as illegal.
MinePlex notes that VTV journalists took out of context the phrase of MinePlex CFO, Fyodor Bogorodsky, who was discussing the potential growth of the PLEX token to $1,500 in the future. Bogorodsky’s words were not a guarantee or promise and were taken out of the context.
In addition, MinePlex’s products and employees were verified by the well-known international cybersecurity firm CertiK. The MinePlex team underwent a KYC check from CertiK in July 2022. All team members were verified, interviewed by independent experts of the company, and passed a financial audit.
MinePlex was recognized as a top blockchain project in 2021 by International Business Times, named Top Digital Finance Company 2021 by Seeking Alpha, and ranked first among top crypto projects of 2023 by Nasdaq.
MinePlex is disappointed that VTV did not verify and clarify the content before publishing subsequent articles that caused confusion, affecting the company’s reputation. The company is seeking a rebuttal from VTV to clear its name and restore its reputation.
MinePlex is committed to providing reliable and trustworthy services to its customers. The company is making every effort to contact the TV company to clarify the situation. However, the TV team does not respond to letters from the company and the company’s lawyer in Vietnam. MinePlex is confident in its legal bases and operating conditions and will continue to defend its reputation and honor.
MinePlex is a new generation digital ecosystem that creates advanced and modern payment solutions based on traditional financial, blockchain, and digital application technologies. The company has always been transparent about its operations and is committed to delivering high-quality services to its customers.

In celebration of International Women’s Day, Binance Charity, the philanthropic arm of Binance, the world’s leading cryptocurrency and blockchain infrastructure provider, has announced a $100,000 donation to Georgia’s Innovation & Technology Agency (GITA) to support web3 education and training. As a result of the partnership, more than 100 women will be able to study professional courses in Web3 and get support to move into the job market.
“We’re proud of our new partnership with GITA, which aims to diversify the Web3 industry by removing financial barriers to study and developing new courses. In celebration of International Women’s Day, we’re allocating 100 out of the 180 scholarships available for women. Georgia is very advanced in terms of adopting new technologies, and there’s already a strong pool of talented women who are interested in innovation, including Web3. We hope these scholarships will enable these women to pursue their passions and further strengthen Georgia as a hub for women in tech.” comments Helen Hai, Head of Binance Charity.
This donation is the latest of Binance Charity’s efforts towards empowering women around the world through education and humanitarian projects. To date, Binance Charity has supported more than 51,000 women across 10 countries, donating over $3 million to women-only initiatives including 36,215 scholarships. In the five years since the non-profit organization was founded, it helped more than 2 million people, with a particular focus on addressing social issues that still disproportionately affect women such as inequality, access to education, and poverty.
Binance Charity donations have been directed to Web3 education programs to support women and other underrepresented and underserved groups to study vocationally as part of workshops as well as through higher education opportunities with top universities. Among these programs are:
- The DLT Talent Programme with Frankfurt Blockchain Center, which is already underway, to support 400 female leaders in the Blockchain space;
- Collaboration with Women in Tech in Brazil, South Africa and Burundi providing funding to train 2,800 women in rural communities in Web3 basics, develop entrepreneurship skills, and support them into employment;
- Partnership with Utiva to strengthen Africa as a hub for tech talent through supporting 1,000 individuals, at least 50% women, to take professional blockchain and digital skills courses.
These projects are part of the Binance Charity Scholar Program, enabling the next generation of Web3 leaders to develop their skills, knowledge and experience without financial barriers. Applications to study as part of this initiative have surpassed 80,000 worldwide since June last year.
Binance Charity remains committed to supporting innovative solutions in using Web3 for social good with a focus on women, as well as investing in research to identify the most impactful ways to use this technology.

To celebrate International Women’s Day, Unstoppable Women of Web3 (Unstoppable WoW3), a diversity and education group on a mission to equalize the playing field in Web3, today announced a commitment to providing Web3 and metaverse education for six million women in Africa over the next five years. The initiative is launching in partnership with 19+ companies including the African Leadership Group, Africa Women CEOs Network, Chipper Cash, NFT Domains, Polygon Labs, Sankore 2.0, Unstoppable Domains, Uoma Beauty, and the Virtual Brand Group, along with 17 other companies.
As a first step towards their goal of onboarding six million women in Africa to Web3 and the metaverse, Unstoppable Women of Web3 and Unstoppable Domains will expand access to user-owned digital identity through free Unstoppable domains, which people can claim for the next 30 days. Web3 domains, like dranino.nft, give people ownership of their identity data – allowing them to create a portable, user-owned reputation across Web3 and the metaverse.
“Africa has one of the most rapidly growing Web3 sectors today, but it’s not exempt from the gender equality issues we see across the globe, and we need to make sure everyone has a seat at the table,” said Sandy Carter, Founder of Unstoppable Women of Web3 and COO and Head of Business Development at Unstoppable Domains. “Empowerment starts with education, which is why we’re thrilled to lead this initiative to educate six million more African women on the metaverse and Web3.”
In order to meet this commitment, the partner organizations will offer Web3 and metaverse education via a wide assortment of educational streams, programs, learning materials, in-person events, and online courses:
- The African Leadership Group will offer master classes and content on Web3 and the metaverse to their ongoing training and lifelong learning programs across Africa.
- Africa Women CEOs Network will present a CEO Education in Masterclass Program designed specifically for women in Africa.
- Educational programs will be available online on the Unstoppable Women of Web3 official website, and will be translated into Portuguese, French, and Arabic.
- Chipper Cash will surface Unstoppable Women of Web’s Web3 and metaverse education within its app.
- Sankore 2.0, an Africa-focused blockchain community builder, will develop and organize online and physical courses on metaverse knowledge and blockchain code development to empower African women in Web3 technology.
- Unstoppable Women of Web3 and Unstoppable Domains will provide free Web3 domain addresses to expand access to user-owned digital identity. They’ll also launch a set of blogs on digital identity on the Unstoppable Women of Web3 website, available in French and English, and issue special NFT-based Education Badges for women who complete the education programs.
- Unstoppable Domains and Unstoppable Women of Web3 will launch a blockchain education stream in partnership with Alchemy.
Today, Africa is one of the fastest-growing adopters of blockchain, cryptocurrencies, and Web3 technology globally. The continent already features the world’s second-largest Bitcoin market and a government-backed central bank digital currency. Africa also witnessed a 1,200% increase in crypto payments from 2020 to 2021, showing a massive and rapidly growing demand for the nascent technology.
“Having started my entrepreneurial career in Nigeria at 17, I know the power and opportunity of Africa. I see technology and innovation as the way to unlock this next generation of women,” said Sharon Chuter, CEO & Founder of Uoma Beauty.
However, like many male-dominated tech and engineering sectors, Web3 suffers from uneven representation. In 2021, for example, out of the 121 leading crypto companies, it was discovered that less than 5% were founded by women, and women only represent 10% of partners at crypto funds.
Fred Swaniker, founder and CEO of African Leadership Group, said: “By 2035, Africa will have the largest and youngest workforce in the world and will be the primary driver of the 4th industrial revolution. Considering the burgeoning nature of the Web3 industry and the fact that women currently make up 50% of the African continent, it is incredibly important to educate and empower our women with the tools they need to succeed in this field. This partnership will champion not only diversity in Web3 but also enable Africa to continue establishing itself as a global Web3 hub.”
Jennifer Kattula, SVP of Marketing at Polygon Labs said: “We believe in diversity and its impact on the web3 industry. We support women on this International Women’s Day and 365 days of the year. We are proud to support Unstoppable Women of Web3 and the Metaverse as they expand into Africa and beyond.”
Dr. Anino Emuwa, Managing Director of Avandis Consulting and Founder of Africa Women CEOs Network, said: “This initiative will give women in Africa a chance to participate in one of the fastest growing industries in the modern world. The tech and Web3 industries have historically faced issues with diversity and a lack of representation, but with this new initiative, women in Africa can learn about a burgeoning industry and be part of building its future.”
Justin W. Hochberg, CEO and Co-Founder of the Virtual Brand Group, said: “If you can defy gravity in the metaverse, why can’t we defy convention as to who has a voice and the technical skills? This is a once in a generation opportunity to empower diverse talent which will benefit everyone as we collectively build this brave new interconnected world from games to fashion, loyalty to art, sports, music, entertainment and beyond. I challenge everyone to be the change you wish to see in the metaverse and web3 starting here and now with the women of Africa where humankind originated and which over the next decades will be a leading global technology hub.”
Laura Kennedy, VP of Corporate Development at Chipper Cash, said: “We are delighted to pledge our support to the Unstoppable Women of Web3 initiative. Chipper Cash is a company deeply committed to unlocking global opportunities to connect and uplift Africa. When Chipper launched a crypto product more than two years ago, it was in response to a need expressed by our customers. With this initiative, Chipper and Unstoppable Women share a vision that inclusive access and education are critical to building an equitable online ecosystem where everyone can thrive.”
Other partners supporting this initiative are: African Women in Fintech & Payments (AWFP), Afrilabs, Bookings Africa, Ejara, Eloy Awards Foundation, Emerging Africa Group, Futuresoft, Google Cloud, Kenya Blockchain Ladies DAO, Mission Impact Academy, Miss O Cool Girls, NairaEx, SpaceYaTech, The Product House, Thousand Faces NFT, UTU, Women in Management Africa (WIMA), and Women in Tech.
This is not the first time Unstoppable Women of Web3 has launched an educational initiative to onboard women from underrepresented communities to Web3. Last October, the organization also announced its mission to educate and onboard over five million Latinas into Web3 by 2030.

The $MZR token will serve as the native token of the Mizar ecosystem, allowing users to participate in various activities such as staking, accessing features, and receiving rewards.

GameFi arcade project Metacade has continued to see a phenomenal response to its MCADE token presale, with 5 stages selling out and an impressive $9.3m raised to date. This leaves only two rounds before the presale closes and the hotly anticipated token finally lists on public exchanges.
During the recent Metacade presale, a significant demand for tokens led to Stage 5 quickly reaching its token sale cap at a price of $0.0155. The current stage 6 sees a token price of $0.017, ahead of its ultimate increase to $0.020 in the closing stage of the presale. Once the presale sells out, the token will be unleashed on multiple crypto exchanges, including Bitmart and Uniswap.
Russell Bennett, CEO at Metacade, said: “It feels like only yesterday that we opened the MCADE presale and it’s already coming to a close. We’re thrilled to have so many investors and GameFi enthusiasts on board for the next stage of Metacade’s journey. Everything is on track and we will be keeping the community updated every step of the way.”
It certainly has been interesting to follow the buzzing Metacade social channels, where a loyal development community shares ideas, including app interfaces and UX concepts. The business aims to hire from within the existing community as the project progresses following the presale.
Metacade is set to deliver the ultimate play-to-earn experience and change the face of gaming. Built on blockchain-based play-to-earn mechanics, Metacade will allow gamers to earn a crypto income while playing a vast range of arcade-style games. The GameFi project is building a community hub for all things play-to-earn where gamers can meet, exchange gaming alpha, and compete against each other in tournaments to earn MCADE.
MCADE is the fuel for the Metacade ecosystem and is used in all transactions on the platform. Gamers will be rewarded tokens for gameplay such as overcoming challenges, completing tasks, and battling it out in PvP sessions. Users will also be awarded MCADE tokens for their valuable contributions to the platform, such as sharing knowledge with fellow gamers, writing game reviews, and engaging in events.
A highly attractive feature that’s drawing in investors is the Metagrants initiative, a source of funding for game developers to build projects on the platform. Developers submit game proposals to the community who vote on what projects they would like to see built. The most popular proposals are awarded funding and the developers can set about bringing their ideas to life.
Metacade recently received approval from leading blockchain auditing firm Certik who analyzed and evaluated the project’s specifications and code, as well as assured the authenticity of the Metacade team through a full KYC. This prestigious approval places Metacade among other Certik-approved projects, including Chiliz, Aave, and Polygon, assuring investors that Metacade is transparent and reliable.
About Metacade
Metacade is the premier destination for gaming in the metaverse. As Web3’s first community arcade that allows gamers to hang out, share gaming knowledge and play exclusive P2E games. The platform offers users multiple ways to generate income, build careers in Web3, and connect with the broader gaming community.
Metacade will be the one-stop destination for users to play, earn, and network with other passionate gamers worldwide. Once the project reaches the end of its roadmap, Metacade will be handed over to the community as a full-fledged DAO, evidencing its commitment to its original ethos of people-led gaming.

Everscale is continuing the growth that has seen it rise to one of the most eminent blockchains in the industry. The network has already been added to some of the largest crypto exchanges including KuCoin, Huobi, Gate.io, MEXC, INDODAX and more. Now another exchange has been added to the list, after Everscale won a community-driven vote to determine which asset would be listed next on Bybit, one of the top 10 cryptocurrency exchanges in the world.
According to Bybit rules, only its users can choose the assets that get listed on the exchange through a voting process held on the ByVotes platform. The latest asset vote took place on March 2 and lasted for 24 hours. The community was asked to choose between three tokens — EVER, VRA and POOLZ. In the first 60 seconds, EVER received 1,182,781 votes and took a substantial lead over the other assets, which it retained until the conclusion of the voting period. By the time voting had concluded, it became clear that Everscale set a new record for the number of votes cast for a project on the ByVotes platform with 41,281,985.
Before voting started, both Everscale and Bybit held AMA sessions for their users. Bybit held their AMA on Telegram with an $1,000 prize pool and Everscale held theirs on Twitter with a 5000 EVER prize pool. Both sessions were well attended and served as comprehensive introductions for the newest addition to Bybit’s stable of digital assets.
The prize pool established for the scenario of Everscale winning on ByVotes was 1,200,000 EVER, and an airdrop took place immediately after the vote concluded, with all participants who voted for Everscale receiving a share of the pool proportional to their contribution to the vote tally.
Everscale also held a contest among its voters, which was the first step toward gaining VIP access to EVERPOINT 2023, a conference and party in honor of the network’s third anniversary which will be held in the UAE on May 7.
The listing is the latest demonstration of the budding strength of the Everscale community and its high level of loyalty and involvement in the life of the project. The listing on a new exchange of this calibre also constitutes a milestone for the network as it will open up an entirely new level of accessibility and exposure to Everscale.
Everscale Foundation Board Member Moon Young Lee said: “This listing on Bybit is a massive achievement, especially considering the way it came about. Getting listed on one of the world’s top ten exchanges is going to allow Everscale to expand much further and introduce many new people to the network. In addition to all that, we could not be more pleased with how strongly the Everscale community showed its support during the voting process.”

Massive Gaming, NEOWIZ’s overseas affiliate, successfully launched House of Slots on March 6. House of Slots is a social casino game that combines Web3-based Play and Earn content and blockchain technology. House of Poker, a global social casino hold’em game, will be released as a follow-up.
Before launch, users received a token airdrop, with further reward opportunities to follow through the Play and Earn system integrated into House of Slots.
House of Slots will offer over 80 different social casino slot machine games and provide users with a realistic and fair gaming experience. Through the Play and Earn system, users will be able to unlock rewards in the game’s decentralized economy and generate more value from their playing time.
House of Slots utilizes USDC, a stablecoin fixed to the value of the US dollar. Global users can play various social casino games for free and earn USDC with specific goods provided by the game. This will alleviate sell pressure on the game’s native token, which has been the most notable issue with web3-based games so far. The Play and Earn system will see users paid in USDC as a reward, ensuring stability in value.
To date, small and medium-sized game developers have experimented with the combination of Play and Earn games based on blockchain technology, but the in-game economies have not provided a stable structure that produces fair benefits to users. House of Slots applies a Play and Earn structure that fairly rewards users thanks to reliance on USDC in the game.
Information regarding House of Slots-related airdrops and free NFT minting events can be received via Discord, Twitter, and Telegram. Links to the airdrop page can be found on Gleam.

Singapore, Singapore, 7th March, 2023, Chainwire
DeFiChain, the world’s leading blockchain on the Bitcoin network dedicated to bringing decentralized financial applications and services to everyone, is delighted to announce that its community has voted to sponsor the National Fighting Championship (NFC) this year. The NFC is the German version of the widely known UFC, in charge of the mixed martial arts (MMA) fighting league in Germany.
NFC is the biggest German MMA league, with the latest NFC event (NFC 10) reaching more than 10 million viewers worldwide. It is hosting six live events in 2023, and each event attracts 2,500-6,000 fans onsite. The fights are also broadcast on German television on Sport1 as well as on social media. DeFiChain will sponsor the following five of the six events this year:
- 25 March, 2023: NFC 13 Westfalenhallen Dortmund
- 27 May, 2023: NFC 14 Maritim Hotel Düsseldorf
- 16 September, 2023: NFC 15 Telekom Dome Bonn
- 11 November, 2023: NFC 16 Showpalast Munich
- 16 December, 2023: NFC 17 Maritim Hotel Düsseldorf
Michael Ortlepp, Managing Director of the NFC organizer Fighting GmbH, said, “It is a great joy and privilege for us to announce our partnership with DeFiChain. NFC as well as DeFiChain follow the same values and goals and are made for a great partnership that will have a lasting effect on the German MMA scene.”
DeFiChain has a growing community base in the German market. The opportunity to sponsor the biggest German MMA league will allow DeFiChain to attract more crypto-curious people in the German market. Prior to sponsoring the NFC, DeFiChain collaborated with several agencies to conduct market research. It found that crypto users and developers are highly interested in gaming, basketball, fighting sports and drone racing.
“I’m really happy about the partnership between us and the team of fighting.de. With the DeFiChain sponsored 10,000€ “Fighter of the Night Bonus” we are able to give the fighters the appreciation they deserve. Our community is looking forward to being part of this fantastic fighting community,” said Benedikt Keck, Project Lead NFC Sponsoring at DeFiChain.
DeFiChain will also sponsor a “Fighter Of The Night Bonus” for the best fight of the evening. The fighters will be paid directly in DFI in their Wallet. They will be able to spend it however they want, or use it to invest in dStocks or liquidity mining on DeFiChain to earn more rewards. There will also be a “Fan of the Night Bonus,” where one fan will be randomly selected during the live event and if they can show that they have the DeFiChain Wallet installed they will get 1,000 DFI.
DeFiChain is a fully decentralized blockchain with on-chain governance. Since its mainnet launch in May 2020, the project has seen an enthusiastic involvement from the community in almost all aspects of the blockchain, from masternodes, projects, tools, governance, economic ideas, to code governance. Its codebase has been developed in an open source manner, and widely peer-reviewed and discussed by many.
