Hey, this is James Pelton.
And I have a project for you today.
This is Treasure Game, Treasure Hunt is what it's called.
And so what I'm starting to see,
I'm done with the Wolf Game clones, okay?
I'm not gonna do any more, all right?
So you don't have to worry about that.
But what I'm starting to see and what I like
is we're starting to see a mixture,
a coming together of the Play to Earn games
and the Node as a Servant DAS projects, the Node projects.
They're kind of starting to come together
in a way that I think is really fun.
And I think Treasure Hunt is one of those games
that's doing a really good job
of bringing those two together.
So this game, it's launching on the 12th
and they're not doing any kind of whitelist
or anything like that.
So I do like that because in a lot of the traditional
Wolf Game clones, Play to Earn games,
if you're not on the whitelist,
it's a lot harder to make money.
If you're in the whitelist,
you can make your money back pretty well.
So I like that they're doing that.
Treasure Hunt, it's a Play to Earn, Risk to Earn game.
And I'll go through their white paper a little bit,
but they have Quests, they have Dueling, they have Nodes.
And they have this Fortune Teller,
which I'll talk a little bit more about.
And here's kind of what the NFTs look like.
So there's three different ones.
There's Pirate, Marine, and a Corsair.
They talk a little bit about the roadmap here.
And then I like they have a fully doxed team, okay?
Like we don't see this very often, right?
Especially in this industry.
But I'm gonna show you my AMA with their founder here.
But yeah, some really interesting things that they're doing.
I just wanna walk a little bit through their white paper
before getting to the AMA.
But you Mint, very similar to how you do
in these other games.
75% Pirates, 20% Marines, 5% Corsairs.
It's gonna be 1.5 AVACs to get launched.
So we're looking at about 100 bucks or so.
They are gonna do something unique.
This is one thing I wanted to show you
is they're doing a free-to-earn.
So they want people in who don't,
hey, I don't wanna spend money on an NFT.
They're gonna have a free-to-earn option.
Okay, now these, there's some qualifications
is you can't sell this NFT for three months.
And the tokens are gonna be locked for six months.
But I think that's a really interesting idea.
So then they have Quests,
which is basically you're staking your,
so this is kind of like a similar traditional node,
the way you might think of it.
They have the things like your Corsairs can steal
Newly Mints like we do in a lot of these
other play-to-earn games.
They have this thing called Plundering
where you can get five NFTs together to form a crew.
And then you send your crew out,
and your crew's gone
because they die in the war, apparently.
That's kind of tragic, actually.
But you can send them out on these plunders.
You get these Armory NFTs so you can go out on plunders.
You can find allies.
There's just a lot in here.
Dueling, and it's hard to know.
We don't know exactly how much of this
will be available right on launch
and how much will be in the future.
They're gonna have some kind of duelings.
They're gonna have Fortune Teller,
which is basically like a gambling dynamic
that's gonna help with the inflation of the price.
So they talk a little bit here
about the deflationary mechanism.
So, but I like this.
It's not just a wolf game clone.
It's another experiment.
They're taking it to the next step.
And that's what I like with these projects
is we're just taking it to the next level.
And I'm seeing kind of the play-to-earn games
and the node projects kind of coming together.
And so I'm really excited for this one.
It launches on the 12th.
We're gonna do a giveaway on my Twitter.
So my Twitter is at JamesPelton18.
And I'll put a link to that,
but it's not gonna start until after they mint, I believe.
But we're gonna give away five of these NFTs as a giveaway.
So, but anyways, I want you to meet the founder here
and he'll walk you through a little bit through the game.
So enjoy my AMA with the founder of Treasure Hunt.
All right, well, I just wanna thank you
for coming on my channel again here today.
Could you go ahead and introduce yourself
and tell us how you kind of found your way to the project?
Yeah, no problem.
So my name is Ryan.
I've been in the crypto universe since 2015, mostly trading.
I come from the computer engineering
and crypto was always something
that I was interested about.
And I decided to give up everything, basically everything.
I gave up my job and everything that I had
to go in the crypto world.
And I can't say that I make it, I already make it a bit.
But it was always trading, like I also trade Forex,
but usually crypto is where I've been the most profitable.
And since like one year, I've been in the NFT world
and mostly most involved in the G5 futures.
So I was advisor on many projects
and this project I'm talking right now with you,
I'm gonna talk right now with you,
is the first one I built myself.
So, well, myself is a big one
because we're actually a team of 12 people.
I'm not alone at all.
We've got 12 people working every day.
We are for the project.
So that's basically it.
Okay, very cool.
And could you tell me a little bit about the project?
If you were gonna kind of sum up,
hey, here's what we look to set out to do.
Why'd you start it?
Well, at first we've seen the Wolfgang hype
about the risk to run, play to run.
Wolfgang, Collision Thief and Avax.
And we just thought ourselves like,
we always have been advisors of project.
Why don't we just start one ourselves?
And we just say, okay, let's fork Collision Thief first
to see how things goes.
And one way to another,
we just found that the project itself
wasn't sustainable enough and wasn't interesting enough.
And since I'm a gamer,
like some of my friends, we just said, okay,
we've got NFT, we've got risk to earn concept.
Let's try something more sustainable
and more game fight oriented.
So we came up with the game, a card game,
turn by turn based and just said, okay,
let's push the risk to run a step further.
And we came up with the bet feature called Fortune Teller,
which is basically you come and bet
on full price of NFT collections.
And we just try to make the risk to run concept
more complete and more sustainable.
We really have a long and,
well, we have a short vision term,
but we always wanted to make it a long-term project.
So basically, the staking of NFT,
when you earn a reward by staking NFT
is the base concept of risk to earn nowadays.
And we try to use that as a step from the first step
from investors to come on our platform.
And then we're gonna propose some GFI features.
I said, like the first PVP,
when you use your NFT as a card game.
And the second one is a Fortune Teller
when you just come and bet,
which is a way to use your money well
and more sustainable way
because we are using those features to burn token.
So we have a whole deflationary mechanism behind.
So it's really cool, like a really cool game.
When you play like Hearthstone or, I don't know,
or Magic is not online, but still you get it.
So it's really cool.
And the game is basically you use your NFT,
like your NFT are already pre-decided stats.
And those stats will affect the PVP when you play.
So you have three stats, health, speed,
and trend that's already decided by the NFT you have.
And we did that because it's the first step.
Like we really want to build a very complex,
but still fun card game.
But right now with the resources we have,
it's really not really,
it's just impossible to build a real card game.
It's such a short amount of time.
And without the funds that some game studio have.
So we did this as a first step
to see how the community respond.
If they are enjoying the concept,
what we can improve.
And the next step would be developing
this more complex game,
which will be our main goal next month.
But first, obviously first,
we want just to mine the collection
and have the feedbacks from the community,
which will be the main argument we have
to build a real game.
But we really want to see if the risk concept
with the game would be well received by the community.
It's more about providing a game,
simple and fun,
but still with some tricky features
that you can actually play at the game,
but without being this much difficult.
Like, you know, we don't want to be so annoying
when you have to grind 24 hours a day.
So it's not the idea here.
The idea is just to make something playable and fun
and to define features.
So what we aim to do is building this card game,
which will be playable and fun.
And you will earn some token by playing, just playing.
You know, you will lose some, but it's a game.
And when you earn, you can, by staying on the same platform,
make your earning work.
So you can earn more.
So it's a circle, you know.
By staying on the same platform,
you can earn and make your money work.
That's the idea we're trying to build.
But we still want to build this game,
which just can be fun.
I mean, the idea is to,
I mean, I don't know if you have any child,
and it's not relevant at all,
just saying that if I had a son
and I want to teach him how to,
the DeFi and the crypto can be really difficult,
like really, really difficult.
And the idea is you just show the game to your son
and say, hey, look, if you win, you get some token.
Okay, this token, you can put them here and here.
What's it?
This DeFi make you win that.
And with that, you can earn some actual money.
So it's kind of an introduction,
can be used as an introduction to young people
without the really complex concept of crypto.
Very cool.
No, I like it.
Could you explain a little bit,
maybe for your starting game,
like how the,
so my audience is a lot of like passive income people.
So they're looking for,
they like games,
but they also want to make some money.
So could you kind of explain maybe like
what the initial investment would be
and like what kind of returns you might be looking for
and how that works a little bit?
Well, there is two things.
Like the second thing we're building right now
is called CWAR,
which is exactly the same thing as we're building right now,
which is Treasure Hunt.
And it will be on the same platform,
except that it is based on free NFT.
So you don't have any first investment.
You just come, take your free NFT
and go play using PVP
or staking your NFT
by earning the reward
or even using the bet feature.
The point here is to allow people
without any first investment to play
and to be part of our community.
But they will earn some money,
but they will earn some token,
our second enlisted token,
which is called PC8.
So you just came here.
You just come on the platform using free NFT
without first investment.
You just come, you farm PC8
and you can exchange PC8 for TRSR,
which is the main token of our platform.
So you can actually earn money
without any first investment.
And that's why we try to build here
is to allow those people,
like people who just don't have any money
or people who are young people,
like they can invest,
but they still can create minimals.
So they actually can come on the platform
claiming their free NFT and trying the game.
About passive income,
we are using a node system.
Since you're talking about passive income,
we're using a node system.
Why nodes?
Because we actually love the concept of nodes
and we wanted to include.
The reward of the nodes will be half TRSR and half PC8.
PC8 is the best enlisted token
I told you about before.
And it will allow people to earn some exclusive feature.
Like a node will be one of the key of our project.
It would be sort of a GAO using node system.
Like if you own a node,
you will be able to access some exclusive feature.
That's the utility of the node.
Some exclusive features in the future.
And for the next project, as I told you,
it's not the next project.
It's the further steps we are going to
and we're aiming to achieve.
And that's all about the node.
Yeah, passive income is a big part of the game too.
Because you can play whenever you want.
You still can just put your NFT to work
by staking them or buying some nodes
using your token to earn some more token.
Very cool.
No, I like that.
I really like this project.
And again, I just like the visuals.
And so that's one of the things
that I'll really highlight that when I make the video.
So I guess my last question,
you answered pretty much everything that I had.
I like that your team is all there.
Because rug pulls is like a big thing right now in the world.
And you guys were upfront about who you are
and who's all involved.
And I appreciate that.
We are actually proud of what we're doing.
We should stand up and not hiding behind some pseudo.
That's awesome.
No, I love that.
So I guess my last question is,
if people watch this and they want to get involved,
what's the best way for them to get involved right now?
Or do you have a launch date?
Or where are you at?
Yeah, my day will be on 12th next week.
So my day will be on Callao
since we are on the launchpad of Callao.
We're part of the launchpad of Callao.
Callao, you must be familiar with Callao,
which is the first marketplace in Mavericks.
Really, really great people, by the way.
Really supportive and giving me so much good advice.
So my day will be on their platform.
The my day will be on their platform on Monday 12th,
next week, 12th of March.
Yeah, you can find us on Twitter.
Yeah, you can just tweet, but mostly on Discord.
Like, come and cheer, you come on the Discord.
We have incredible mods who are doing so much effort
by giveaway, contest,
and just interaction with the community.
And you will also find myself,
because I spend a lot of time on the Discord
speaking with people.
Yeah, I don't really like the concept of...
There is a lot of people
that just don't interact with their own community.
We have mods.
So let's just let them chill with the community.
Yeah, no, it's my project.
I've put my work and my effort into this.
So I want to speak to people
who can invest in me and my project.
That's why I spend a lot of time on Discord, too.
So yeah, Twitter and Discord.
Okay, very cool.
Well, hey, thank you for coming on.
I love that.
I love talking to you,
and I'm just gonna let my audience know
I'm gonna be investing in you guys.
So I think it's a cool project.
Yeah, thank you, thank you.
Yeah, so thank you.
And if you ever would like to come back,
just let me know, and we'll get you on.
Well, we're gonna be a bit...
Certainly after the month.
Yes, that'd be great.
Certainly after the month.
Cool.
Thank you.
Thanks for watching.
I appreciate your support.
If you wouldn't mind just liking this video,
if you liked it, and subscribing, that would be great.
I really enjoy being able to check out
all these different projects,
but I am only able to do it if I have viewers.
Okay, there would be no point if nobody watched.
So appreciate you guys.
Have a good rest of your day.
