Behind the Mic
On the left. I move. I’m ready. Oh, we are ready too. Hello, hello, everybody. Welcome to this week’s Xpectacular Show on Tuesday, November the 15th. I’m your co-host, XRP Jenna Ben-Joseph. Pleasure to have you here, guys. We’ve got a very special guest tonight here with us from Ukraine. We have Dan Korzh and he is the CEO of WarFi.me, also known as the MetaVirus. Welcome to the show. Thank you for having me here. It’s a pleasure. Yes, it’s great to have Dan here on a current project he’s working on, WarFi.me. And he is from Ukraine, which it is the middle of the night there, right? It’s a late night there, yeah. So it’s actually early morning. Thanks a lot, Dan, for being on. We really do appreciate it. Yeah, welcome. So I’m really excited to hear you talk about WarFi.me because you and I had a conversation about this earlier and I thought this sounded really fun. But first, I got to know, how did you get the name MetaVirus? Actually, this is an old story. I had a studio called MetaVirus Studio and thought it was a good idea to create a game called WarFi. Actually, in 2013 I created the first game and it was called MetaVirus. Because of the way that it spread across all the blockchain community when this explosion happened, everyone became aware of this name MetaVirus. Wow. Can you tell us a little about WarFi.me? What is it, and what’s your vision for this project? WarFi.me is a multiplayer, online, shooter game, which creates a unique ecosystem of NFTs built on the XRPL blockchain. And we also got the opportunity to create a play-to-earn game where the users can earn money while playing the game. And we’re attractive not only to play to earn users, but also users who are very interested in classic shooters. They all could be involved in the game. That sounds amazing. But I want to ask more about the XRPL and ask you what makes building on the XRPL different maybe from other chains because we have a lot of projects on blockchains. Actually, the XRPL blockchain allows me to create an amazing experience within the games. And the speed that it provides is amazing. Also, the fees are quite low, and most of our audience in the United States appreciates this feature. So all in all, XRPL blockchain is the best I know at the moment. I love that answer. And we have an amazing community backing up the XRPL, so you’re in the right place for that. That’s what I heard. So we would like to also offer you to tell us the specifics of what is interesting with WarFi.me. What exactly does the ecosystem provide? Actually, we have a very interesting game system. Every user of Waters can purchase their NFTs in different modules. They are equipped not only to run each other’s history, missions, and quests, but also to increase their personal skills. So the more time you spend in the game, the more your skill will increase. You’ll get higher-rated modules and bigger and bigger rewards. So you create medals within the game. Your scores become medals, and medals are NFTs. And these awards could be transferred, maybe sold, maybe distributed. But there is so much you can create within the game. That’s cool. So do you have a question, Jenna? Yeah. I wanted to ask you about the gaming community and what has your feedback been like so far? The project was announced when? March this year? So last year we just announced the building of our NFT collection and the building of this game. And next year, we’re planning to list the token. So basically all we can do is join our social media, telegram channels, etc. And to contribute and ask about the project. Totally. And I’m curious, how much do you listen to the feedback from your community? Because, you know, sometimes the smaller projects are very interactive with their community. So is it more of a grassroots approach? Do you take their ideas and bring them into the game? Actually, we gather their ideas all the time because we had a big pilot test. It all was inspired. And every fan gives an idea, and we use this to improve our experience. Wow, that’s important. I agree. And by that feedback, do you offer some sort of maybe early entry, bonuses, or perks for those who help you along? Actually, yes. We have OG roles. Before the game starts, they get into new updates and development paths of the game. And they can have very interesting rewards and retreat perks. So basically that’s a problem we solve for our business model. I think that’s very unique being on XRPL. Now let’s talk tokenomics, Dan. What can you tell me about the tokenomics of WarFi? Actually, I would like to talk about our primary release of NFT collection. So first of all, WarFi will release 5,000 NFT collections on the XRPL blockchain. They will create a unique character that gets transferred from your wallet into the game. So you created a vivid picture, a vivid character within the game. They all get transferred and take you back. Nice. And I’m curious, do you have, like, a price point set for those NFTs? We still discuss the price, but basically we’re following the average market price. Also, we all discuss the price within our community. Got it. What kind of wallet will people be able to put their NFTs in? You can use Sum Wallet, Replace Wallet, and there’s some third-party blockchain wallets you can use. I love that Sum Wallet. Me too. And Dan, what inspired you to create WarFi? Actually, inspiration came from my old project, Metavirus. And my basic idea was that just by creating Metavirus, I could become number one in that market. So I thought about creating a game could be a great idea. And by analyzing the market at that moment, I got aware that by creating that, I would become number one in that market and actually just happened this way. That is a great answer. I just wanted to know, why did Dan decide to do this project on the XRPL and not Ethereum, for instance? On XRPo. Right. On XRPL, yeah. Actually, because this is the best blockchain that anyone knows. And here many things are connected with the conspiracy theory and it will grow 1000 times. And when it becomes the best blockchain, my game will be number one. I like the way Dan thinks. That is a good. I’ve heard so far out of all of our interviews now, we interview a lot of projects. And what we do is we ask the project that we’re interviewing, that is tonight, Dan, we would like to ask him. We would like him to think of a question to ask the next project for the next week. So he needs to think of a question that he would like the next project to. All right. So actually, I am very interested. Why do people use and prefer XRPO blockchain over ERC-20? Do you do it because of the speed, the low costs, the economy? What attracts you to XRPO? I would like to hear this answer. That’s a good question. And also, Dan, something we do like to do with all of our guests on the show is ask them a little bit about themselves and get to know them personally a little. What do you see for yourself in five years? It’s actually a tough question. For the next five years, I plan to build a very appreciating community. I plan to build first-class games and provide everybody here an opportunity to play and earn money. I want everybody to build their dream house in that world thanks to this opportunity. Great answer! I’m really excited to see how WarFi.me will develop further. But I have to ask, if you could pick anyone (living, dead, or fiction) to be your gaming partner, who would that be? That’s a very interesting question. I would choose somebody from my beloved family. Great answer. I agree with you. Also what is going on? SlyE said, You know, in the game, I love characters, because the way I design them is very similar to how I see many people who play the game, The most important thing, I design the characters so that they can freely move around the game and evolve. I love that. It’s nice to create. Heros for sure. It’s amazing, and we like to ask the next part, but I do like to ask what’s your favorite hero in the game? My favorite hero? Yes. I think it’s Mark, yes, the legendary sniper. Yes. Mark. Thank you for the pretty interesting answers. And one last thing. If you could give one piece of life advice to anybody sitting in the game, What would that be? And why? I advice everybody, whoever plays our game, to first think about the main purpose before we start just endless mission by the game. You should always try to slowly increase your level and Always remember to share experience and think strategies, Because together you can create a lot more. Absolutely. Thank you for that. And more of a personal question. What is Dan’s favorite firearm in the game? Rocket fire. Rocket launcher. Rocket launcher. Okay. Rocket launcher. This is the name. Rpg seven. Yes. Nice choice, by the way. Yes. Guys, it’s expensive. Expensive gun. Got it. I’ll make sure to use an rpg when I play. Yes. Dan. You know, we all like to think that our project is better than the next project. What. How do you think, or where do you think your project is compared to, let’s say, one of these that we would consider like Call of Duty? Well, I think it could compete with Call of Duty and other world’s shooters. And we have some interesting features like NFTs similar to Fortnite and other features. We have special offers like play, free to play, play to earn. Users can get real money while playing this game. I agree, thank you. So this is the future. Speaking of future, what what’s next? What do you foresee as the future of that project? So in the nearest future, you’ll definitely see our big marketing campaign. We will reach out to major exchanges, list our NFTs and our token. And just expose our game to the greater audience. Great decision. Thank you very much for joining the show. Thank you.
