Що таке Aavegotchi (GHST)?

Aavegotchi has pioneered a number of developments and features in the NFT Gaming Space. For starters, they were the first major NFT protocol to go live on Polygon. The protocol has distributed millions in rewards through its original play-to-earn mechanism known as Rarity Farming, rewarding the most enthusiastically engaged members of the Aavegotchi ecosystem with GHST tokens across the categories of rarity, kinship and XP.

Aavegotchi’s flagship game, the Gotchiverse, has been live on Polygon mainnet since March 2021. Within the Gotchiverse, players use their Aavegotchi NFTs as web3 avatars to explore, build, battle, earn and socialize. The Gotchiverse fair-launch playdrop introduced four new ERC-20 tokens collectively known as Gotchus Alchemica: FUD, FOMO, ALPHA, and KEK. These tokens act as the four elements of the Gotchiverse and are used to craft and upgrade Installation NFTs placed on a player’s Gotchiverse land parcel. A fifth ERC-20 token called GLTR was also created to reward Alchemica liquidity providers. GLTR’s primary utility is to speed up the crafting and upgrading time of Installations in the Gotchiverse.

Another innovation the protocol developed is Gotchi lending. Gotchi lending is Aavegotchi’s improvement on the traditional scholarship model made popular by other play-to-earn games. Gotchi Lending requires no middle man and comes with zero risk of human error. It allows players to trustlessly lend their Aavegotchi NFTs to other players without any risk. The Gotchi lending smart contract automatically splits any earned tokens per the agreed upon terms of the contract once the duration of the lending period expires.

Aavegotchi also became the first NFT gaming protocol to have their governance token available as collateral on Aave in February of 2022. The first ever cross-chain governance proposal on Aave passed, allowing GHST to be listed as new collateral on Aave’s Polygon Market along with BAL, CRV, DPI, LINK and SUSHI.
