2022 Year In Review
Don't know about you, but we're hyped looking back at everything we've achieved this year, and excited for what's ahead. It hasn't always been easy, but it's been so worth it. Ending the year on a product high with a new class system, borrowing, lending and breeding updates. The F U N is well and truly back in the game, and as Facundo (and Snoop) have both alluded to - we're only just getting started!
Thanks to our brilliant community of passionate ZED HEADZ for supporting us throughout 2022 - you are the best and greatest, and building alongside you, we are bullish about what lies ahead in 2023.
Metaverse Cup Finals
Team France secured their victory over Team Argentina in the Metaverse Cup! Each racehorse on the winning team is taking home $250 and 1,000 ZED tokens after crushing their 45 custom 1v1 races.
In addition to the team awards throughout the challenge, individual racers were eligible to win prizes for going above and beyond!
The top 32 horses on the leaderboards below are being awarded $100 USD each with extra prizes (Footium NFT Packs, Human Park NFT Packs, & Anomura NFTs) going to the top three of each category.
A special shout out to Dookie Kong’s “Elon’s Ultimatum” for the dominant showing they’ve put on to place 1st, 1st, and 2nd for the individual challenges.
