The story of how Cricket became the sport we recognize today is a fascinating one. It has evolved into a fast-paced blockbuster crowd-puller and has yet retained its purest essence in the form of Test Cricket. With the advent of technology and its undeniable penetration in Cricket, this is an opportune moment to further revolutionize and democratise the sport and empower its 2.5 billion global fans. Leading this revolution is a group of passionate technology and cricket experts who have come together to build Bowled.io – World’s first Play-to-Earn (P2E) cricket platform built on blockchain technology.
Bowled.io has pioneered a cricket experience where the users can generate an earning by applying their knowledge and passion for the game. The core idea is using an innovative game-play model where users bring their team to compete against friends and the Bowled community. The gaming platform would enable the fans to use cricket-related skills and reap exciting social and economic benefits. It has both free-to-play and NFT based play-to-earn game modes and is slated to be released later this year.
Bowled.io sees itself as a catalyst for creating new socio-economic opportunities enabled by in-game economies built on top of public blockchains. The platform design enables one of the world’s largest and most passionate sports communities to leverage their love and understanding of cricket into actual life earnings. Bowled.io is making substantial strides towards realizing this goal with the backing of 20,000+ passionate community members who are early supporters of the project and eagerly waiting for the launch of the entire gameplay.
Users can acquire NFTs representing cricketing assets. These NFTs would be required to participate and win at the games against other users. The NFTs will be dropped ahead of the release of the game. The first NFT drop will happen on March 26th, the same day as the kickoff of IPL season 2022. The NFT release schedule and details will be announced shortly.
