• PoliCromix App Updated to Beta 0.2.0 🆕

 Our app has received a major update to version 0.2.0, packed with highly requested features:

• Blobympics 🏅

The Blobympics Games in Cariñoland came in full swing, and we've been reporting live on the action: it  has been well packed with  a

- 🤩 Diverse Cast of Blobympic Characters
- 🏊‍♂️ Highlights from the Thrilling Blob Swimming Finals
- 🏃‍♂️ Controversy Strikes as Blob Marathon Ends in Photo Finish

With the Blobympics serving as a successful proof of concept, we've recognized the opportunity to deeply integrate these stories and characters into the game's overarching lore. Rather than treating the event as a standalone promotion, we'll be creating a new Chapter 7 in the Cariñoland storybook that is directly inspired by the Blobympics happenings.

This approach will allow us to further develop the unique personalities and narratives of the blob competitors, making them more memorable for players. We'll be cataloging the supporting characters that have emerged and exploring ways to feature them in ongoing content and events. The goal is to create a lasting impact, giving players a reason to continue engaging with the Blobympics universe beyond the initial competition.

Additionally, we're exploring ideas to involve the community more directly in shaping the Blobympics storylines, potentially allowing them to influence outcomes or provide input on future directions. This interactivity is intended to foster a deeper connection between players and the PoliCromix narrative.

• Wax Blockchain Integration Coming to PoliCromix 🔗

In exciting news, we're working on integrating the Wax blockchain into the PoliCromix ecosystem. The primary goal is to allow players to tokenize their valuable cards as NFTs, which can then be traded and used across different blockchains.

Key aspects of the Wax integration plan:

- 🔒 A single Wax smart contract will handle all NFTs from different sources, enabling seamless integration.
- 🔁 Wax NFTs brought into PoliCromix will be converted into cards that match the original NFT's properties as closely as possible.
- 🔥 The source Wax NFT will then be burned, and all further progress on the card will be recorded in the PoliCromix smart contract's NFT metadata.
- 🌐 Dedicated "per-collection" universes within PoliCromix are being explored to accommodate Wax NFT holders.
- 💰 Potential integration of any fungible tokens associated with Wax NFT collections for in-game rewards and giveaways.

This Wax blockchain integration is a major undertaking, and we're committed to making it a smooth experience for PoliCromix players. Stay tuned for more updates as this exciting development progresses! 🚀

That's it for this week, PoliCromix. Keep an eye out for more news and developments in the weeks to come. 👀

Warm Regards,
The PoliCromix Team
