INTRODUCTION

Shamae:

Hello @Lucy | RaceFi! Thank you for being with us today 😃.

Before anything else, can you introduce yourself?

Lucy:

Hello everyone, my name is Lucy — RaceFi Growth Ecosystem Manager. It’s my pleasure to join AMA with you guys today and I’m so excited to answer all the questions. Nice to meet you all.

Shamae:

We’re glad to have you here @Lucy | RaceFi. So, let’s proceed now to the first segment of our event.

Let’s start with the basics. What is RaceFi all about?

Lucy:

RaceFi is a Web3 car racing game with built-in advertising service powered by blockchain technology. This is where powerful racers compete against each other to win exciting rewards. All ownable parts of the game are in the form of verifiably owned NFTs. In RaceFi’s metaverse, players can earn money while enjoying different game modes or make a profit by owning in-game assets.

Shamae:

Interesting! Players can compete to win rewards and earn in the game’s metaverse 😍

So, the RaceFi project has been launched for a long time, what are the milestones that your project has achieved so far?

Lucy:

We’ve been putting a lot of effort into creating and expanding our game and metaverse since the project’s inception in 2021. The bankruptcy of certain significant projects in 2022 has caused people’s confidence in the cryptocurrency sector to decline.

However, thanks to the founders’ team’s long-term vision and the community’s confidence in us, we are still growing and have reached numerous important milestones as follows:

📍 We’ve completed building the infrastructure including Smart contract, Portal,… to ensure our project running perfectly on multichain

📍 We’ve run some Staking campaigns on Kucoin and On-chain Solana

📍 Our game is in the perfecting progress and have released the Beta Test.

📍 We’ve already established partnerships with a lot of blockchain and traditional projects.

📍 And we’ve also successfully built a marketing platform with billboards and banners through our racetrack, so other projects can put their image on, advertise and reach to more users.

Besides, you can follow our social channels to get more news and daily updates.

TWITTER QUESTIONS

Shamae:

Now let’s move on to the 2nd segment of our event. The question and answer portion ❓ 🗣️

We’ve received a lot of questions from our users on Twitter, but we have only chosen the 5 best questions. So let’s get started 🚀

Question no. 1 from user @Messijnrz

What is the role of NFTs in RaceFi, and how do players acquire and use them in the game?

Lucy:

In RaceFi, our NFT will be various car models, and they are used to take part in every races in our game.

To possess RaceFi car, you can buy directly from our RaceFi Portal (which will be launched with the game release this quarter), or you can join our events and get a chance to win RaceFi NFTs as a reward.

Follow our social channel to update the latest news and look forward to the launch of our Portal. 🥰

Shamae:

Question no. 2 from user @cudosinichi9

While doing research on your Whitepaper, I found about two main game features which are Pure race and Battle race. Can you please give me info about these 2 Main Game Features and what are the main differences between these two?

Lucy:

At the beginning, RaceFi consisted of 2 main game modes, Pure race and Battle race. However, at the moment, we have changed and upgraded the game modes, becoming Single-Player and Multi-Player mode and each mode will have its own characteristics:

- Single-Player: players will directly drive and control their cars and overcome challenges along the road within a limited time to win the prize. In this game mode, players need to pay an amount of fee to race and the reward will include other players’ fee as well.

- Multi-Player: Players will race directly with others. They need to use their skills like a professional racer to beat their opponents and take the top spot on the leaderboard. Moreover, this mode is free to access.

Shamae:

Question no. 3 from user @Adhityas0O

Partnership is one of the important factors for every project. Could you name some of your partners? What are the benefits that you get from them? And is there any partnership that will be established in near future?

Lucy:

From the early start till now, we’ve established many partner relationships with other projects from various areas, such as: Solana, Kucoin, AFKDao, MetaOne, Good Games Guild, Liberty Games Guild, …

In the near future, we will proceed to make partnership with more partners to develop our game and attact more users as well.

Notably, we will join with Ancient8 in this month, and Liberty Game Guild in the next month to host interesting activities for you guys to take part in and get chances to win the prize. So stay tuned!!! 😘

Shamae:

Question no. 4 from user @TraderJOHN_8888

I really love to racing games(I used to play NFS everday) but I dont have experience playing Metaverse based games. is it easy to start playing in Racefi ? What’s the first step to play in your platform? will you have some kind of explanatory content for crypto-beginner players?

Lucy:

In some parts, RaceFi is also like every other traditional and racing game. However, because our game is blockchain based, so there will be some differences:

Firstly, you will need your own wallet to access our game, we accept wallets from Solana, BNBChain and Polygon such as: Metamask, Phantom, Coinbase Wallet.

Secondly, players will have to own $RACEFI to join some of our game modes. And to earn $RACEFI, players can buy on Kucoin exchange, be the top rank of the game or win our special events.

Shamae:

For the last Twitter question from user @CryptoKhangng2

It says $RACEFI as governance token. Can $RACEFI token holders vote on future DAO proposals, what are the requirements, and can $RACEFI token holders share transaction fees?

Lucy:

At this moment, we are developing our Treasury Community, and DAO will definitely be one of the main features of our project in the coming stage. However, it’s too soon to tell you more details about this now, please stay tuned and look forward to RaceFi DAO in the near future 🥰

Shamae:

Thank you so much for the detailed answers @Lucy | Race

2. Nalaka:

I see two tokens designed in the project, as RCOIN for currency in-game and RACEFI for governance. Can you explain why you need two types of tokens? Also, Can you share the types of governance decisions that may occur in your project?
