CryptoCelebrities
2018 (January)
CryptoCelebrities was a blockchain-based game and NFT project that was launched in January 2018. It allowed users to buy, sell, and trade virtual celebrity cards as NFTs on the Ethereum blockchain, with each card having a unique value based on the popularity and demand for that celebrity.
The game was similar to traditional trading card games, but with a blockchain-based twist. Players could purchase virtual packs of celebrity cards and then trade and sell them on the marketplace. The value of each card was determined by a combination of factors, including the popularity of the celebrity, the rarity of the card, and the demand from other players.
CryptoCelebrities gained a significant following in the early days of the NFT craze, with some cards selling for thousands of dollars in ETH. The game attracted a diverse audience, from crypto enthusiasts and investors to fans of the celebrities featured in the game.
However, the popularity of CryptoCelebrities was short-lived, and the game was eventually shut down due to scalability issues on the Ethereum blockchain. Nevertheless, it represented an early attempt to create a blockchain-based game and NFT project that leveraged the popularity of celebrities to create value and engagement for users.
