Has the game started yet? Well nope, a lot of people might have this same question on their minds for a long time. To be more specific people have had this question running on their minds since last year. Initially, I thought the game was going to kick start before February of this year. Am I complaining? Nope, I kinda like the fact that we are able to claim Zing for some time before the game is finally released.
So what has been going on within the ecosystem of the holozing community? To be up to date you should follow the @holozing community account.
Zing -Posh claim drop has ended
Ok, so this has been coming for a long long time. From the first day, it was stated in the white paper that the posh claim drop option was not permanent and that it would be discontinued soon. I saw this but then the APR for posh claim drop was crazy and wasn’t going down as much as the others so I decided to go in for it.
According to the team they wanted to find a use case for posh since posh is their own project. Posh is supposed to be a token that rewards people for sharing hive articles on Web 2 platforms such as Twitter. With the new Twitter rules it’s become increasingly hard for the team to manage it so the Twitter sharing things has been stopped for now.
So the posh-zing claim drop was for a short while and now it has been stopped. It was fun while it lasted.
New Referral program.
This is pretty simple. We’ve had referral programs all over hive for a while now and holozing bringing it into game is not a new thing. Just that with holozing it’s slightly different. Why do I say that? This is because with splinterlands when someone is trying to register you can send him your link which he uses to buy a spell book. After purchasing the spell book you get a percentage from the spell book sale. It is the same with terracore.
With holozing, you are supposed to set an account which is termed the referrer. This referrer receives or should I say earns a small percentage of all future purchases you make.
So Instead of you getting a percentage the other person gets that percentage. You are allowed to set your referrer to someone who started holozing before you( meaning someone who logged into the site before you).
Changes in token distribution
we already know about the discontinuation of the zing-posh claimdrop.
The next thing is the change in rewards for liquidity providers. This is of concern to me cause am also a liquidity provider though I provide a pretty small amount.
With the liquidity provider rewards it has been cut down by 25% which will be used in other things since the started pack sale will be out shortly.
Official names of starter packs released
There was a contest by the team so people could suggest names for the starter packs. They are here and the official names are
Infurno for the black starter pack, Wrackoo for the green pack, Walle for the blue whale-like pack, and Zappit for the fire pack.
There’s one nice name up there and now for the evolutions.
Infurno as we know it will involve into infurnal. Infurnal is a majestic fiery wolf that’s quick and easily learns moves. Another special ability of infurnal will be bite and tackle. When attacked by an opponent the opponent can catch fire as well.
Wrackoo as we know it will evolve to wrackdoom. The wrackdoom pack envisions doom in its tail.
Walle as we know it’s evolves into Waller. Waller has a special ability to stand in the way of attacks to help the healer regenerate mana. It also has a lot of health.
Zappit as we know it will evolve into Zappity. Man, I love this one. Look how nice it looks. Zappity is portrayed as a fast pack. It’s a dangerous pack that hits you with a lot of power. Zappity is a real definition of torture.
For me, my favourite is the Zappity. I like destruction and I think Zappity defines it perfectly.
