The Mighty Ducks of DeFi — DuckDAO join the DeFi Gaming Coalition
The birth and growth of NFTs over the past 4 years has been unprecedented, with nearly $500M in assets traded in this period. Last year alone accounted for more than half of that! As the gaming and DeFi industries continue to overlap closer together, we anticipate further exponential growth of NFT volume and additional use cases to emerge.
New utility functions of NFTs will further drive the gamification component of DeFi platforms, which the DGC intends to identify, define, and champion for the next generation of DeFi Gaming platforms.
Which brings us to the Mighty Ducks of DeFi!
When you’re dealing with the best of the best, the crème de la crème of the industry, it’s a matter of time until like-minded top shots take notice, and want to accompany your journey.
The DeFi Gaming Coalition consists of industry-leading pioneers that are revolutionizing the way we do business, play games, and view our financial system. The gaming industry is ready to be shaken up, and the DGC is at the forefront of innovation. We’re more than excited to announce that DuckDAO will be joining the DeFi Gaming Coalition.
Their industry leadership and track record for incubating some of the biggest DeFi projects including NFT and gaming ones, as well as raising industry standards for autonomous DAO’s and yield farming brings a lot of experience to the table.
In between their daily operations, the Ducks started an NFT collectors game involving their big and loyal community. To put the cherry on top, DuckDAO recently launched their very own launchpad, DuckSTARTER.
Regarding the partnership, a DuckDAO spokesperson said:
“The DeFi Gaming Coalition partnership with DuckDAO will provide a lot of benefits to both DeFi and NFT ecosystems, bringing them together even closer, and perhaps even to a point where they are indistinguishable from each other. There’s no denying the great potential of gamified DeFi, the great frontier for blockchain discovery.”
It’s clear why the Ducks are an amazing addition to the DGC to help us educate, grow and lead the DeFi and NFT Gaming industry.

DuckDAO paved the way
Incubators are hot right now, and DuckDAO showed that the DAO-model for investing works seamlessly if executed properly. Little did they know these guys were the founding fathers of a trend that would live on to become one of the best investment opportunities of the year.
Every single DAO-model token has increased tremendously the past couple of months, with DuckDAO leading the way and proving their successful track record over and over.
To list a few projects coming out of the DuckDAO gates:
- Paid Network doing well over 100x
- Base Protocol doing well over 100x
- Bondly doing well over 70x
- Poolz doing well over 50x
And that’s just a tiny fraction of all the projects that DuckDAO has been involved with. But, did you think these ducks were stopping with ‘just’ developing a sophisticated and efficient fundraising incubator?
You’re right, they’re not. DuckDAO has created a range of products:
DuckFarm
The Duck Liquidity Pool is a DuckDAO DeFi Market Maker protocol that provides an opportunity for yield farmers to take advantage of new DuckDAO opportunities with real skin in the game.
At the very core of DLP is the “One-Sided Token Burn” (Unilateral burn) which activates when unstaking and burns 50% of liquidity provided.
However, the high expected APY levels, access to 50% of profits from market making, airdrop of incubated project tokens, and customised NFT campaigns can result in compounding of long-term passive income.
The Duck Liquidity Token’s ticker is $DUCK.
DuckDAO Hunters
DuckDAO Hunters is an NFT collection game that provides an opportunity and a challenge for players. It was an interesting social experiment with many NFTs available for earning in various ways, auctions, and trading with other players.
The DuckDAO Hunters Season 1 is complete, with over $200,000 distributed in prizes, which includes a grand prize of $100,000!
DuckDAO Hunters Season 2 will leverage many of the lessons learned in the first season and implement them to make a better, more exciting, and rewarding experience for players.
Duckstarter
DuckSTARTER is DuckDAO’s latest creation, a public token launchpad and service platform for blockchain projects. It acts as the final bridge between early-stage projects and the community before the project goes fully public.
DuckStarter has a unique level system that requires users to lock-in a certain amount of DUCK tokens to participate in the launch platform.
The beauty is, all of their products are always directly marketed by a line of their partners ranging from IvanOnTech to Boxmining, Gainz Associates to CertiK Foundation.
Without a doubt, adding DuckDAO as a member of the DGC will bring the entire coalition a step further. The ducks bring tons of networking possibilities, marketing knowledge and especially a big and loyal community of crypto enthusiasts!
