Dating back to the 1950s when computer scientists first designed games, the gaming industry has evolved—becoming a billion-dollar market with billions of gamers globally. The ever-changing market has experienced a significant segue from a subscription-based monetization strategy to blockchain technology and an NFTs-based one. Since then, in-game NFT sales, token appreciation, and advertising have become the best way to earn as you play.

As NFTs continue to have more use cases, followed by a recent rise in price and interest in these non-fungible tokens, a new monetization strategy has launched—the ownership era. This will see gamers earn royalties for all of their previously owned NFTs.

At the forefront of this paradigm shift is Stradall, a blockchain-based card game where players engage in numerous races using cards that represent various iconic automobiles.

Fueling the Ownership Era

Stradall integrates NFT cards, each representing distinct car brands with real-world attributes. It is the first card game that allows you to buy, sell, trade, and manage officially licensed NFT cards. Managers or gamers must build garages and rally teams to engage in car races. As they acquire assets and partake  in races, they unlock real-life advantages.

Stradall sits right at the evolution of P2E, automobile gaming, and web 3.0 experiences that will fuel the ownership era of the dynamic gaming sphere. It is designed for gamers, car lovers, investors, and NFT collectors, and unprecedentedly, you can earn without playing. Stradall’s royalty program allows you to buy a card and receive a percentage on all future sales. The higher the uniqueness of your card, the more you earn.

Stradall introduces four levels of singularity—Unique (Black Card 1/1), Legendary (Gold Card 1/10), Rare (Silver Card 1/100), and Limited (Blue Card 1/1000). The team includes a fifth rarity level—Common (Unlimited Free Card)—that enables free gameplay.

How to Buy A Card

Like most projects, Stradall leverages blockchain technology to guarantee the cards reliability, safety, and uniqueness. It runs on the Ethereum network, offering complete ownership and effortless exchange between managers. The cards cannot be duplicated or deleted; each is an ERC-721 standard NFT.

The cards can be bought through an auction in which all managers participate. After that, they can sell them to opponents, investors, and collectors on secondary markets and earn royalties. Prices may vary depending on the attributes and singularity of the cards.

Partnerships and Team Members

In addition to fueling the ownership era of the gaming industry, Stradall is working to position itself as an ideal gaming platform for all kinds of people. Stradall has partnered with various prestigious car brands and influencers to deliver a compelling, rewarding, and immersive gaming experience. It doesn’t end there; Stradall has assembled a team of experts in various markets and industries. They include Victor Faramond, the co-founder of MoonPay; Michael Lee, VP of Dfinity; Roman Didier Laurent and Benoit Huguet, founders of Journal du Coin; and Julius Akinyemi, Professor of Blockchain MIT Media.

Stradall has also partnered with SuperCarBlondie, arguably the most famous car influencer with over 80 million followers in the auto, gaming, and crypto spaces.

Stradall also launches a token—Metanol ($MTNL)—that will serve as the primary component of the Stradall game economy. According to the team, a presale is on the way. And participants will stand the chance of winning a special prize—Alpine A110 Limited Series designed to commemorate Olivier Panis, the 1998 Grand Prix F1 (Formula 1) Winner.
