Crafting the new paradigm
Everyone is asking, ‘What’s the next big thing in gaming? What’s the narrative after play-to-earn?’
As we delve into this dynamic landscape, we witness the emergence of a gaming lifestyle revolution. Gaming is evolving beyond mere entertainment, igniting two significant trends: first, gaming is becoming an integral part of everyday life; and second, the physical and digital worlds are converging. These trends are echoed and validated by the growing support we receive.
“We are excited to support Jarindr and the dedicated team who successfully built up a steady user base of gamers on GuildFi throughout the bear market by gamifying the social behavior of players through rewards and quests. We are confident that through the team’s expertise in player behavior and robust catalog of games, Zentry’s Metagame Layer will power the next generation of web3 gaming and social experiences.” Shi Khai Wei, Partner — LongHash Ventures
Zentry is pioneering a new paradigm: The Play Economy. This evolution of Play-to-Earn expands beyond a single-game economy with short cycles to a meta-economy encompassing multiple games with lifelong value.
It is the game of games, where every play, victory, and moment across platforms enhances your legacy and your real-world self. Zentry and its Play Economy will bring about new dimensions of play, a new distribution model, and a new era of advertising, creating unparalleled social and economic opportunities for gamers, game publishers, and beyond.
“Gamification of everyday life will continue to be a dominant trend going forward, and we believe Zentry is well positioned to build a unique social layer that better connects the digital and physical worlds. As the network effects of Zentry’s community platform grow it has the potential to become the dominant distribution source for new games and entertainment.” Jerry Shi, Founder & Managing Partner — Synergis Capital
Setting the new standard
In everything we do, we strive to elevate the standards and set industry benchmarks. We believe that for crypto adoption to take off, we have to purposefully build a seamless onboarding and user experience. Additionally, mass adoption is not the job of one party, it is a collective effort of the entire crypto industry.
To receive support from some of the largest names in the industry supporting us is nothing but humbling. It also motivates us to know that we’re moving forward in the right direction, and at the same time, to do our part in advancing the industry forward.
“Spartan remains bullish on Web3 gaming, as we believe it’s the most accessible way for crypto to reach mass adoption. Zentry has an innovative vision of seamlessly blending real-life social interactions with Web3 tech to create an immersive MMORPG experience, and we firmly believe the team can deliver a transformative ecosystem that will redefine the boundaries of digital value creation.” Tommy Chang, Head of Gaming & Executive Director — Spartan Capital
Zentry is now primed to lead the new era of gaming, equipped with full-stack technology, a vibrant network, and a robust treasury exceeding $150 million.
We would like to extend our thanks once again to our believers and our Zentarian community. As we begin to open the door to our universe, we are committed to rolling out products of the highest quality, aiming to elevate Web3 to the next level and drive mass adoption.
