Meet Snort: Your Hilarious Guide to 2069 in SNORT — On The Run

Published

on

Video games built on blockchain systems often promise a lot and deliver… Well, not that much. However, in the case of SNORT — On The Run, players are immediately introduced to a fun and engaging hyper-casual game, which then gradually develops into a really immersive blockchain experience. The reason for that is a great merger of simple yet highly appealing gameplay mechanics with a tokenomics system that is both novel and rewarding. Here, the game offers its unique play-to-burn system but adds many additional incentives to anyone who is interested in the crypto and NFT space.

Snort the Escaped Prisoner

The game opens up with Snort, the game’s protagonist, in the year 2069. This isn’t your typical video game hero, but a lovable degenerate who is determined to break out of a prison cell and gain back his freedom. He’s armed with nothing more than a throwing knife and a sense of humor, but his desire to break the shackles of his jailers will overcome any obstacle. So, from the first moment, SNORT — On The Run puts the players in the shoes of this degenerate and immediately, they have to move.

The main gameplay mechanic is the press-and-release tap or click, which launches Snort in the air and helps him jump over obstacles. These include numerous movable platforms, but also spears, fires, and many other dangers. At the same time, there are robot guards and other enemies on the ground, as well as a police chopper circling above Snort. Along the way, Snort is also able to pick up gold coins and stack these up through the runs. However, a single mistake means an insta-death for the players, so both skills and patience are needed to take on this game.

Later in the game, players will come across hover cars they can drive, as well as rocket ships and other vehicles. The game even includes its boss battles, all of which take place inside a procedurally generated environment, making each run feel brand new. Here, pixel art graphics, made in the style of the early 1990s golden age of 2D platformers, really blend well with the overall look and feel of the game.

Cross-platform Balancing Act

It is also important to underline that the game is fully optimized for cross-platform play. It is set in vertical portrait mode, which means it functions just as well on a mobile phone as it does on a desktop or laptop device. The same goes for its controls, where the single tap or click provides a perfect means of player input, while at the same time, keeping the game challenging and hard to master.

That balance of difficulty and skill is a hard problem for any kind of game. But, with SNORT — On The Run, the players will need only 10 or 20 minutes to see how their ability to take on the game’s challenges gradually builds up. At first, chances are that many will feel that the game is too hard. That will include regularly overshooting platforms or making jumps fall too short. Yet, with each run, the feel for the game’s control will increase and offer players longer and longer runs. In turn, the development of skills needed for the game manages to rise just as the challenges rise as well.

BASE-Build and $SNORT Tokenomics

The game, from its blockchain perspective, is built for the BASE network exclusively. It holds a BASE NFTs in the function of characters and its $SNORT token is used for all in-app purchases. 

The game offers free mint options with its SNORT GAME PASS NFT, but all of this can be ignored by the players who can simply use the regular Guest Mode. Still, those with the NFT pass will get power-ups, and cosmetics for the Snort character, including additional weapons, gold jewelry, and more. All those elements, both cosmetics and gameplay-related, really come into their own for the competitive part of the SNORT — On the Run experience. Here, the leaderboard is just one of the competitive elements. Another interesting element of the game is its unique tokenomics mechanism called play-to-burn. With it, players will spend and burn their $SNORT tokens used for power-ups, influencing the wider token ecosystem with their activities. 

The game’s creators plan to use a play-to-burn feature inside of tournaments, which will include sponsorship prize pools and other incentives. That alone can attract countless crypto gamers who are interested in a more competitive side of blockchain titles.

Simplicity and Appeal

The game’s brilliance lies in its ability to be a very deep and rich blockchain-based gaming ecosystem, but also a simple and addictive video game. Players, depending on their interests, can decide which of these they wish to interact with. Simultaneously, they will be completely free and without any burden of the things they wish to avoid. So, anyone can enjoy SNORT — On The Run as a regular hyper casual game, or they can get involved with its tokenomics, or even play it on a very serious, competitive level. The game will accommodate any and all approaches, which shows just how ingenious its entire setup really is. All of that represents the makings of a truly awesome game that is yet to explode into its true and massive popularity with many different types of gamers. SNORT — On The Run has so much to offer to all of them!

Press Release

How Bitcoin’s price rise has increased the number of cryptocurrency payments 

Published

on

NOWPayments Announces Significant Gain in Crypto Payments

NOWPayments, a leading crypto payment gateway, is excited to announce the significaте Increase of Crypto Payments since the beginning of November. 

Why Bitcoin took a new ATH in November?

Starting in January 2024, Bitcoin’s price was around $48,717, marking a period of cautious optimism following a tumultuous 2023. Throughout the first half of the year, Bitcoin experienced significant fluctuations as market dynamics shifted, driven by regulatory developments and increased institutional interest. By November 2024, Bitcoin had reached a pivotal moment, hitting an all-time high (ATH) of $75,000 on November 8 and then surging to $89,000 shortly thereafter.

This remarkable growth didn’t go unnoticed by the business world. Companies across various industries quickly recognized the massive business opportunity Bitcoin presented. The ATH sent a clear message: Bitcoin was no longer just a speculative asset but a powerful tool for transactions, store of value, and an entry point into the broader crypto economy.

Businesses’ interest in Bitcoin grew for several reasons:

  • Increased Institutional Adoption: Major financial institutions rolled out Bitcoin-based services, providing legitimacy and opening doors for mainstream use.
  • Global Payment Integration: Bitcoin’s borderless nature appealed to businesses seeking efficient, low-cost cross-border transactions, particularly as inflation and currency instability impacted traditional fiat systems.
  • Hedge Against Inflation: As global economies faced ongoing inflationary pressures, Bitcoin became a preferred asset for protecting wealth, especially for businesses looking to diversify holdings.

Climbing to $75K

The journey to $75,000 began with a series of positive developments in the cryptocurrency market. Following the approval of Bitcoin Spot ETFs and increased institutional buying, Bitcoin’s price steadily climbed. On November 7, 2024, Bitcoin reached approximately $76,999 before closing at around $75,820. This surge was fueled by a bullish market sentiment as investors reacted positively to the election results and anticipated regulatory clarity under Trump’s administration.

Breaking Through $80K

Following its initial surge to $75K, Bitcoin quickly surpassed the $80,000 mark on November 10, 2024. The momentum continued as traders rushed to capitalize on the positive sentiment surrounding the cryptocurrency. By this point, BTC was trading at approximately $80,976, reflecting an increase of nearly 9.64% from the previous day.

Approaching a New BTC All Time High at $90K

As of November 12, 2024, Bitcoin’s price soared to around $89,000. This represents a staggering increase within just a few days following the election and highlights the cryptocurrency’s volatility and potential for rapid gains. The combination of strong demand from both retail and institutional investors has driven BTC prices higher as they anticipate further growth.

How has the new ATH for BTC led to an increase in crypto payments?

We decided to analyse how the rise in the price of the main cryptocurrency – BTC affected the number of payments. NOWPayments team took the number of payments before the U.S. election and compared it with the data after the Trump has won. The result exceeded all expectations. Thanks to the growth of BTC from $72,729.89 to $90,750.94, the number of payments increased by as much as 8%. This significant change indicates the increased interest in cryptocurrency and the correlation of BTC price and cryptocurrency usage.

  1. Correlation Between BTC Price and Crypto Payments:

The 8% increase in the number of payments demonstrates a clear correlation between Bitcoin’s price growth and the rising adoption of cryptocurrency for transactions. As BTC’s value surged, so did user engagement with crypto payments.

  1. Increased Interest in Cryptocurrency:

The significant rise in payments highlights growing public and business interest in cryptocurrencies as a viable payment method, especially during moments of market optimism fueled by events like the U.S. election.

  1. Market Events Drive Crypto Adoption:

The post-election Bitcoin rally, combined with its ATH, underscores how political and economic events can directly impact crypto adoption, encouraging more users to explore cryptocurrency as both an investment and a practical payment tool.

Digital Assets Underinsured: Report Identifies $19 Billion Coverage Deficit, Less Than 3% Secured

Published

on

A recent report, Furthering Digital Assets 2024: Pioneering Insurance Solutions for the Web3 Era, highlights a substantial coverage gap in digital asset insurance, revealing that only 3% of digital assets are currently insured. This gap leaves billions at risk, with an estimated $19 billion in losses from fraud and security breaches since 2011.

The report emphasizes significant incidents that illustrate the vulnerability in the sector. These include a $650 million breach at Ronin in March 2022 and a $614 million loss from PolyNetwork in August 2021. As investments in digital assets increase, so does the call for comprehensive risk management solutions, particularly from institutional stakeholders.

With more than 90% of crypto hedge funds expressing a desire for mandatory insurance on exchange-based assets and around 40% of institutional investors now holding cryptocurrency, the demand for tailored insurance products is clear. Further Ventures, the report’s creator, points to a growing interest from institutions seeking ways to protect their digital assets through robust insurance policies.

The report also sheds light on recent regulatory responses. The Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA), for example, has set mandates for digital asset custodians, requiring 50% insurance coverage on cold storage and 100% on hot wallets. Despite these initiatives, high premiums remain a challenge, with average rates around 0.5%-5% for custody insurance and 5-10% for slashing events and Directors & Officers (D&O) policies.

According to the report, addressing the insurance gap in the digital assets industry will likely require innovation in policy structure, more accessible premium rates, and a regulatory environment that supports the development of effective, comprehensive solutions. As the sector evolves, insurance options may play a critical role in fostering institutional confidence and broader adoption of digital assets.
