--

Hello, DEGENS!

We are very excited about the newcomers in The Old Castle Defense, who followed us on the Warpcast (built on Farcaster). Today, we will explore the $DEGEN (Base chain) and NFT staking with High Yield in The Old Castle Defense(TOCD). We’ll cover where and how to purchase $DEGEN, the methods to stake $DEGEN and NFT and provide you with tips to potentially multiply your earnings.

Understanding the Basics

Before embarking on the journey of acquiring and utilizing $DEGEN tokens, it’s crucial to grasp the foundational elements:

  • $DEGEN is a token on the Base blockchain and is the first Community-Driven token on the Warpcast and Farcaster. This philosophy is the same as the philosophy of TOCD.
P.S. Even Vitalik Buterin mentioned $DEGEN and $GLOOM in his feed. https://warpcast.com/vitalik.eth/0x57f06fdf
  • $DEGEN and NFT are the main assets in TOCD (Base|DEGEN);
  • Staking is a process in which you lock these assets into a smart contract for a certain time (in TOCD, for the duration of the Siege), and in return, you receive a reward with your staked assets back.
  • NFT owners/stakers are free to play to earn. NFT players have no risk of losing this NFT even if their faction loses the game. So if you have an NFT whose supply is 200 NFTs total — you are very lucky and unique. If you do not have NFT, it’s time to bring more activity and growth to theoldcastle.xyz to receive more rare Mystery Boxes where you can find NFT and $DEGEN. Read more…
