Jump.trade has ventured into Web3 games with its Meta Cricket League (MCL). It is a gaming-NFT-based Web3 integrated marketplace launched by Singapore-based GuardianLink. MCL is a play-to-earn (P2E) NFT game. Anyone can earn up to $500 daily by playing cricket matches. This whole initiative is named 'Hit and Earn’. All the matches are played in the metaverse.
The MCL is intended to provide users with engaging entertainment, instil inclusive game skills, and leverage community economics to ensure a one-of-a-kind metaverse cricketing experience. Players can form teams of batsmen and bowlers to compete in real-time player-versus-player matches. They can also work together to form a team and earn rewards.
According to Kameshwaran Elangovan, co-founder and chief operating officer at GuardianLink, "To begin playing the MCL game, users need to buy a combination of 1 Batsman NFT and at least 1 Bowler NFT from the platform."
The Meta Cricket League NFT collection was released on the Jump.trade platform on April 22. Jump.trade provides a variety of services. These include game asset AI training, renting and real estate development, purchasing and trading ultra-rare cricket NFTs, etc. The MCL NFT collection gained popularity immediately after its release. Despite the global crypto crash, Jump.trade sold 55,000 NFTs within nine minutes of going live. In each tournament, the platform currently has more than 1000 players. Winners here have a chance to win cash prizes of over Rs 39,000 per day.
On August 7, 2022, the first MCL grand slam finale was held. GuardianLink and Flipkart's FireDrops organised the event. The prize pool was $10,000. The prize money was divided among 500 players who were shortlisted. The winner received $1,000. The second and third place finishers received $600 and $400, respectively. The remaining prize money was distributed to the players based on their positions on the MCL leaderboard. It was one of Jump.trade's largest tournaments to date.
