XYRO secures the first-mover advantage in gamified social trading
Social trading and GameFi have been important staples in Web3, but XYRO is the first platform to combine the two to create a brand-new market niche: gamified social trading. The innovation has found overwhelming success: less than two months after the mainnet launch, XYRO has already attracted over $3.5 million in gaming volume and more than 500,000 individual transactions.
XYRO users can choose between four gaming modes: Up/Down, Bull’s Eye, 1vs1, and Setups. All of them center on crypto trading and the ability to forecast price action for BTC and other major coins – thus creating an engaging gamified trading experience.
However, the biggest strength of XYRO, which guaranteed it success with 1.2 million followers, is a set of SocialFi features. XYRO CEO Vlad Sadkov explains:
“Players join XYRO for the opportunity to earn USDT rewards, but they stay for the community and the social aspect of the gameplay. Sharing trading ideas in the live chat, forming teams, sending each other trading challenges, competing in the leaderboard, voting for or against trading setups offered by KOLs – all this is an integral part of the XYRO experience. The social element ensures the high engagement and low churn rates that distinguish XYRO from the majority of Web3 gaming platforms.”
Animoca Brands and CoinMarketCap Labs back
XYRO’s trail-blazing potential has been recognized by Animoca Brands – one of the largest venture players in Web3 gaming. In July 2024, Animoca Brands led XYRO’s private investment round, which raised $1.4 million.
The platform also secured a strategic partnership with CoinMarketLabs, a major Web3 accelerator that is now incubating XYRO. Leveraging the resources and support provided by Animoca Brands and CoinMarketCap Labs, XYRO achieved outstanding growth between July and December 2024, moving from the testnet to the mainnet stage and more than tripling its user base.
Fully on-chain and with AI features
XYRO prides itself on being one of the very few Web3 gaming platforms where all games run on-chain. The result of each session is recorded on the Arbitrum blockchain and is completely transparent and provably fair.
The project recently added a host of AI features to make the gamified trading experience even more immersive. In the near future, XYRO plans to make it possible for players to participate in AI-generated trading setups and challenges, matching their trading skills against a neural network.
XYRO expands its SocialFi toolset for players and crypto traders
XYRO constantly introduces new features and improvements to promote communication and interaction among players, as well as healthy competition. In particular, the live chat attracts more than 2,000 players an hour.
Among the recent additions to the set of social features on XYRO are a cashback program and a revamped system of levels that players progress through as they earn points for various activities on the platform. The key utility of levelling up is securing a larger allocation of XYRO’s upcoming gamified airdrop.
The road ahead: $XYRO token launch and gamified airdrop
In the coming months, XYRO will finally launch its much-awaited utility token and the industry-first gamified airdrop. For months, thousands of active players have been participating in challenges and competing for high rankings in the XYRO leaderboard to secure token allocations. The preparatory stage is still ongoing, and new members can still earn enough points to receive XYRO tokens.
XYRO’s success with players and the interest shown by companies like Animoca Brands and CoinMarketCap prove that gamified social trading is indeed one of the most promising new developments in the Web3 gaming landscape.
