A group of Brazilian developers announced the launch of a trial version of their game based on  NFTs , called "Olefoot". The game follows the line of card games and is similar to the famous "Cartola", but without connection with the national championships. In it, the player needs to assemble his lineup with the cards of the players de  football  and challenge other users to a match.

Like " Axie Infinity" , the current version of the game is free, that is, players do not need to pay anything to participate in the game. However, it is also possible to buy collectibles that represent real players who have a partnership with "Olefoot".

The NFTs of real players have characteristics such as speed, passing, marking, finishing, fair play, dribbling, wear and market value. Soon, the game will also make available cards that enhance each attribute of the players. Developers point out that the game allows users to make changes to game tactics, positioning and mentality of athletes during the match, among other decisions related to team performance.

André Figer, first advisor to "Olecoin", the crypto project behind the game, highlighted that it will be possible to participate in ranked leagues and make proposals to buy athletes from other teams. "'Olefoot' allows users to own teams and face real clubs with their NFT teams," he said.

Focus on DeFi

Figer also explains that players can acquire NFTs from their own stadium and buy upgrades to increase the number of fans and income in each match. The game includes items such as a parking lot, training centre, medical center and gym, with future plans to expand structures and negotiate with banks or exchanges to provide financial services to clubs.

Along with the game, the developers also launched a token, OleFy, which will function as the game's native crypto and will be used in transactions and rewards paid to players. Guilherme Nunes, co-founder of Olecoin, celebrated the launch by highlighting the company's intention to bring the blockchain market to football.

Nunes further states that the OleFy token focuses on the decentralized finance ( DeFi ) ecosystem, along with a staking system. In it, pool owners receive 5% as affiliate marketing and a percentage of all OleFy generated among pool participants. The token's pre-sale was held at the Pink Sale, reaching 50 BNBs in less than 1 hour and totaling 183 BNBs.
