The latest funding announcement comes at the heels of the company’s recent IDO launch. Earlier in Dec, the P2E game launched raised $800,000 from its three IDO rounds. Ertha partnered with Seedify, GameFi, and RedKite to launch its offering.
The increasing popularity of Metaverse acts as a catalyst to an already booming play to earn industry. Users playing P2E games can monetize their winnings in the game in real life. Moreover, users can mint gaming collectibles like special characters, skins, or particular scenes from the gameplay as NFTs.
