Next-Gen Gaming Metaverse, Star Atlas, to Be Listed on FTX

Star Atlas is a next-generation metaverse project based on gaming and blockchain and it has recently been announced that two of its game tokens namely; $ATLAS and $POLIS would be listed on Sam Bankman-Fried run crypto derivatives exchange FTX on September 2, at 9PM SGT. The news has created a positive buzz within the crypto community specifically those who see blockchain gaming as a world of new opportunities. For Star Atlas, the timing could not be more perfect for listing on an exchange that has approximately $20.6 billion worth of daily volume each day.

An overview of Star Atlas

In simple words, Star Atlas serves as a combination of blockchain tech and a uniquelydesigned gaming metaverse that follows play-to-earn methodology. Star Atlas’ design and theme match the deepest corners of the outer space where players are allowed to spend as much time as they wish in a virtual world of their preference. In the Star Atlas ecosystem, players get to experience high-end gaming through the power of traditional core games and blockchain mechanics. Star Atlas represents a best-of-both-worlds app m roach and integrates into one unique gaming metaverse where players can spend time and get rewarded by digital assets.

The connection between FTX and Star Atlas

FTX, the crypto derivatives exchange where ATLAS and POLIS tokens are set to list on September 2 also offers options, volatility products, and leveraged tokens. Star Atlas uses the Solana blockchain and Serum to create its gaming metaverse which means that Atlas can lend a variety of Solana/Serum backed assets for earning yield by its players as one of the core decentralized finance functions. For those who do not know, Serum is a centralized exchange software that is built on Solana blockchain to facilitate traders buying/selling cryptocurrencies. Solana aims for increased scalability that would result in faster transaction settlements. Both Serum and Solana are owned by FTX and Alameda Research. Star Atlas supports two types of native cryptocurrencies called ATLAS (used as the in-game currency) and POLIS (the governance token of Star Atlas).

Players of Star Atlas would utilize ATLAS to bear the costs and revenue of ship repairs, refuelling, buying consumables available in the game, and replacements. Though the upcoming Galactic Asset Offering would be USDC-funded the players will get an opportunity to acquire ships, equipment, crew, components, and land using ATLAS tokens. Once ATLAS and POLIS are listed on the FTX exchange platform, people interested in the offering would get a chance to trade their digital currencies for ATLAS.

Special Features of Star Atlas

Star Atlas intends to enable players to spend time in the immersive intergalactic metaverse and bridge the gap between the real and virtual world to establish a sovereign feedback loop. To do this, the team of Star Atlas has integrated digital assets into the ecosystem that would always belong to their holder. These can be kept in a wallet for safety or converted into any other type of crypto asset using a reliable crypto exchange such as FTX easily.

As described earlier, Star Atlas is designed to run by ATLAS, the primary in-game native cryptocurrency. Throughout the gameplay, the player’s starship would require special equipment, fuel, and repair which can be bought using ATLAS. ATLAS token turns out to be extremely useful for players not only because you can buy assets and items within the game from a Non-Playable Character called Merchant directly but it would also be used within the NFT marketplace.

The existence of Star Atlas Galactic Marketplace is another distinguishing feature of the Star Atlas project. This would be a place where the entire community of Star Atlas would come together within the game to purchase and sell different types of assets. The most interesting thing about this marketplace is that players would be able to find various job postings to do in-game tasks and get paid with in-game currency. According to the Star Atlas team, a major part of assets would be available through these in-game job postings for players so that everyone gets a fair chance to strike it rich in the Star Atlas ecosystem.

In case a player wishes to get their hands on the Star Atlas assets without considering the job postings then they have to partake in the upcoming pre-sale and other exclusive future sales. Another reason to expect pre-sales and exclusive sales in the future is that it would bring rare spaceships and other commemorative items. Players would have to place bids for these exceptional items that would be settled almost immediately.
