Airdrop from Gods unchained & Immutable X : GODS & IMX
In 2019 there was the launch of a new Game in the Cryptosphere called Gods Unchained.
They sold a bunch of packs for a total of 5 million USD
The gameplay reminds me a lot of Hearthstone and was ok but it really taxed my laptop back then, there were no real rewards or marketplace. With time I kind of forgot I had put in 1 ETH in buying a bunch of packs and cards. That was not such a big deal back then as the price of ETH was a little over 100 USD.
When the Era of NFTs broke and I linked my Wallet to OPENSEA I realized again I had 500 of these cards laying around but selling them on ETH then was out of the question with GAS prices being what they have been for the last year. So again I kind of ignored it but signed up for the newsletter.
Usually, I skim over the newsletter to follow the improvements. So I was up to date when the team launched Immutable X, a 2nd Layer on Ethereum, created for cheap fees and speed. A gaming chain so to speak. I was able to migrate my cards to the new chain and played a few games again. The experience was much improved from 2019 but by now I was more focused on Splinterlands.
So to my surprise I get an email:
$GODS Update: Play to Earn campaigns!
There they go and explain an Airdrop
$GODS Play to Earn Event
If you already play Gods Unchained and collect Gods Unchained assets, rejoice! Mortals who link their wallets to the Immutable X marketplace and play a game of Gods Unchained, and held Genesis or Trial of the Gods (TOTG) cards and chests before the snapshot timings below will be able to reap what they’ve sowed for their labors.
For reference:
The Genesis Snapshot was taken on 21 June 2021 at 23:30 UTC on L1.
The snapshots of the TOTG collection and unminted TOTG cards were taken on 23 June 2021 at 23:40 UTC on L1 and L2 respectively. To claim $GODS tokens, eligible players must link their wallets to the Immutable X marketplace and play a game of Gods Unchained. The token rewards must be claimed by the 28th April 2022, 23:59 PDT. After this date, all unclaimed tokens will be forfeited.
I received 1200 ish tokens, half now and the rest in 3 x30 day intervals. Which I figure is a few bucks like most drops. Much to my surprise, it's close to 5600 USD.
Like any good Degen, I go to claim them and log in to my account and the new immutable X version. Only to find the next surprise waiting for me.
And this one is a lot more interesting.
The IMX airdrop!
I was not even aware that this had happened so this made it even better. Getting 2600 IMX represents approximately 15k USD
So all in all this was a good day for my portfolio and a solid return on a 100 USD investment 2 years ago. I remember @themarkeymark, @acidyo, @tarazkp also holding some cards and there were others as well. So if you still have those cards, go get your rewards... If you know anyone who has cards. tag em in the comments.
For me the IMX tokens are keepers. They seem to be powering a whole lot of high end projects like RTFKT, Opensea and Illuvium. To top that all of they recently signed with ESL (e-sports league) https://about.eslgaming.com/blog/2021/10/esl-gaming-partners-with-immutable-x-to-launch-a-next-generation-nft-collectible-platform-for-csgo-fans-worldwide/
I see this potentially hitting the top 20 in market cap which means another 10x from here without a bull market driving up all the prices. Everything Play to Earn and Gamefi is hot right now and the token has only been live a month...
