Besides the utility token, the NFTs have been breaking ground. The IGO on Binance reached a trading volume of 2.7M within 24 hours and broke the record set by mutant Ape Yacht club. To this day, horses and other digital assets are still hot commodities on OpenSea. The following giants also trust this project in the blockchain industry:
- DAO Maker
- Animoca Brands
- LD Capital
- Crypto.com
- Mintable
- Binance NFT
- Polygon
- ChainLink
- MultiChain
- XCAD
Away from the external accolades, the ecosystem is thriving. The game records more than 7,000 race entries daily. In this regard, the system generates more than 500 races every day. Even the partners want in on the action. There have been more than 20 partner-sponsored events that feature multiple contests. These competitions and regular gameplay ensure that DeRace enjoys an active community.
To maintain and improve the experiences, the game has improved its ecosystem by introducing new features. This includes spin-the-wheel, horse breeding and renting. The devs also added two hippodromes with different surfaces. They also migrated the project to the Polygon network. As such, DeRacers can now enjoy low gas fees on their transactions.
