Tags: Guild, Metaverse, Gamefi, Playtoearn, Blockchain Space

We evolved from a gaming guild to a guild enabler empowering guilds across the world

Dear GUIDLers,

Peter here, Founder of BlockchainSpace. What an incredible last few months!

Since September alone, we closed a Seed Round for $3.75m, a Strategic Round for $2.4m, opened $GUILD to the world through our Public Fair Launch raising $14m, launched our $GUILD Staking Vault, and closed 7 partnerships! All while increasing our Guild Coverage in our Global Guild Database to over 4,000 Play-To-Earn Guilds worldwide!

If you know Guilds that are not included in the Global Guild Database you can add them here: https://www.blockchainspace.asia/global-guild-insights

Before the year ends, allow me and the entire team at BlockchainSpace to wish you all a good holiday, which we hope you all spend safely with your family and loved ones. We’re excited to have you with us as we continue the development of being the leading data, collaboration, and financial hub for Play-To-Earn Guilds!

We are hugely grateful for the support from our earliest investors: Animoca Brands, Spartan Group, Crypto.com Capital, Alameda Research (FTX), MorningStar Ventures, Kingsway Capital, Coingecko, CMS, Arca, Mechanism Capital, Infinity Ventures Crypto (IVC), 3Commas Capital, OKEx Blockdream Ventures, Impossible Finance, Sfermion, Bitscale, Parataxis, PetRock Capital, Fenbushi Capital, Stablenode, Yield Guild Games (YGG), UniX Gaming as well as pioneers in NFT Games — Aleksander Larsen, Co-Founder, Axie Infinity, Jeff (Jihoz) Zirlin, Co-Founder of Axie Infinity and Sebastien Borget, Co-Founder of The Sandbox.

The support in the last months has been immense and, myself and the team are deeply grateful for the belief you’ve demonstrated in us and excited to have you all onboard!

Conclusion

I couldn’t be more grateful for this year, really. Crypto really defies expectations and has literally enabled us to change the lives that we touch. At BlockchainSpace, deeply embedded at our core, we are driven by the values of creating social mobility and improving livelihood. We enable this by empowering Guilds across the world, who have been and will continue to be the driving force of the Play-To-Earn industry!

As great as 2021 was, we know 2022 will be better. Whatever the broader market gives us, BlockchainSpace will continue to do what it does best: explore, learn, and build. We will continue checking boxes on our roadmap, and accrue more value into our ecosystem, driving this back to our community of guilds, gamers, and investors through our token, $GUILD.

We wouldn’t have achieved so much without the support of our GUIDLers.

Thank you for joining our journey!
