As we continue to monitor gaming market trends, it's clear that TON minigames are making waves, particularly in the hypercasual genre. This trend is reshaping Telegram's gaming landscape, much like hypercasual games have dominated the iOS App Store since its inception. During our participation at Token 2049 in Dubai earlier this year, the buzz around TON and its high Daily Active Users (DAU) was unmistakable. These metrics are crucial, especially for blockchains competing for on-chain activity and user engagement.

As we move through our fundraising stages, the key questions from potential investors revolve around our metrics, community, and DAU. In a competitive space, traction is everything. This led us to some innovative strategies on how we can accelerate growth with our upcoming Token Generation Event (TGE) We've observed that developing minigames can deliver a significantly higher ROI than traditional marketing strategies. Telegram minigames boast impressive player engagement and in-game spending, with a high percentage of paying players. With over 950 million monthly active Telegram users and the potential launch of a Telegram App Store, we're on the brink of a hypercasual gaming boom reminiscent of Farmville's early days on Facebook.

Recognizing the potential, we knew we had to leverage our gaming industry experience and network. After weeks of ideation with our partner studio Timba, we've co-produced a blueprint for a minigame that will complement our main game, Sacred Tails. This game will not only attract casual players but also offer crossover benefits for those engaged in Sacred Tails. Shinsei NFTs will play a crucial role in this new game. While we're not ready to reveal the game's details just yet, stay tuned for teasers and an upcoming AMA where we'll dive deeper into what we're building.The minigame will be monetized through the TON network, offering rewards via a rankings system. We're confident this addition will bolster our fundraising efforts by showcasing strong user adoption and retention metrics.

We acknowledge the recent silence on our social media channels. We’re actively searching for the right candidate to manage our social media presence and will be ramping up our efforts next week

Our attendance at ETHCC and Develop in Brighton has been invaluable, expanding our understanding of the Web3 space and strengthening our network. We’re also excited to announce a partnership with Helika, joining their accelerator program. This collaboration will give us access to top-tier VCs and provide critical game analytics to refine our development process. Helika’s support for TON minigames has already resulted in funding grants, positioning us well for future growth.

We’re excited to share significant updates to Sacred Tails’ combat system, designed to offer players an unparalleled strategic experience. Our goal is to elevate the traditional turn-based combat by introducing a form change mechanic that brings depth, complexity, and a fresh layer of strategy.

These updates are more than just tweaks—they redefine how players approach turn-based combat in Sacred Tails. The introduction of the rock-paper-scissors dynamic, combined with the form change system and subcategories, creates a combat experience that is both challenging and deeply rewarding. It’s a strategic evolution not often seen in the genre, designed to keep players engaged and coming back for more.

We’re updating the interface to accommodate these new mechanics, ensuring an intuitive and seamless experience for players.

Soon, we’ll be sharing the Sacred Tails Game Deck with the public. This will detail the new economy system, skill card leveling systems, and our retention mechanisms. One significant update is the reduction of the Shinsei NFT minting price from $100 to $50, reflecting changes in the NFT market and making our offerings more accessible

Our immediate focus is to bring Sacred Tails to life, with playtests already underway. The addition of our minigame will provide a strong user acquisition model to onboard players effectively. We’re also planning to open a physical studio, with a Studio Lead already lined up—someone with experience at industry giants like Eidos Interactive, Square Enix, and Warner Bros. Games. Once funding is secured, we’re ready to hit the ground running. Thank you for your continued support. The future is bright, and we’re excited to share this journey with you.
