Over the course of two months, the open beta garnered significant attention, attracting more than 15,000 players who engaged in over 490,000 matches. Mahjong Meta attributes the performance of the beta to its integration of web3 ownership economics, innovative AI-based gameplay, and stylish graphic design.

This feature was designed to greatly reduce the barrier for new mahjong players and web3 users, making the gaming experience more accessible and enjoyable.
Other participants in the round included Folius Ventures, Meteorite Labs, Find Satoshi Lab, Parallel Ventures and Emoote.
