## What Is Enjinstarter (EJS)?

[Enjinstarter](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/enjinstarter/) is a launchpad for blockchain based games and [metaverse](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/metaverse) related projects. Centered around the [Enjin](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/enjin-coin/) ecosystem, the launchpad is built on Enjin’s JumpNet and targets [Efinity](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/efinity/) in its roadmap. Enjinstarter’s declared goal is to enable creators and game developers to run capital-raising campaigns and build communities with the help of blockchain technology. The launchpad also facilitates other ways of raising capital, such as selling virtual items as [NFT](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/non-fungible-token)s. All [GameFi](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/gamefi) projects incubated by Enjinstarter receive end-to-end support, including assistance with sustainable strategy development and campaign launch promotion.


## Who Are the Founders of Enjinstarter?

Enjinstarter was launched by a diverse team of experienced blockchain developers and entrepreneurs. Prakash Somosundram, the platform’s CEO, previously served as an advisor to several blockchain and fintech-related projects, such as iBG Finance, CGX.io, and the BCMG Genesis Bitcoin Fund. Enjinstarter’s CTO Alvin Tang is an experienced software engineer who, prior to Enjinstarter, founded and headed a Singapore-based software company for more than 14 years. 

Enjinstarter also enjoys the backing of several heavyweights in the blockchain gaming space. Among its angel investors are Gabby Dizon, co-founder of [YGG](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/yield-guild-games/), Maxim Blagov and Witek Radomski, CEO and CTO of Enjin, in addition to multiple high-profile venture capital funds. 


## What Makes Enjinstarter Unique?

By partnering with Enjin, Enjinstarter is in a prime position to help blockchain based games and apps leverage Enjin’s technology and infrastructure, which, in turn, supercharges their growth. This includes building their subsidiary projects on the gas-free [Jumpnet](https://enjin.io/products/jumpnet) blockchain, as well as on [Efinity](https://efinity.io/), a [Polkadot](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/polkadot-new/)-based NFT parachain. Enjinstarter’s CEO Prakash Somosundram declared that the project shared Enjin’s vision for blockchain games and the metaverse and that it was honored to contribute to Enjin’s ambitious roadmap.

Enjinstarter takes a multi-level approach to growth. On the one hand, its strategic stakeholder network cooperates with leading venture capital funds involved in blockchain gaming, while its scouting system helps identify and bring in interesting projects to the platform. Moreover, it boasts gamified incentives for community engagements like play-to-earn allocations in incubated projects.  

Enjinstarter has already successfully incubated several projects. One example is [Pixelverse](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/pixelverse/), a next-generation NFT metaverse for games, communities, and creators. Another one is [Project Defina](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/defina-finance/), a [play-to-earn](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/play2earn-play-to-earn) blockchain game with [DeFi](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/defi) elements and [Gaia Everworld](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/gaia-everworld/), an immersive fantasy game where players can explore lands and build their own kingdom. Finally, Enjinstarter helped launch [Scottybeam](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/scottybeam/ico/), an “NFT teleporter” that helps to move NFTs across different blockchains.

Interested game industry innovators submit their project proposal to the Seedify

Seedify acts as a launching pad for blockchain games and the disruptive play-to-earn gaming model. The gaming industry is gradually entering a new era — previously gamers may spend large sums of money on in-game items with no direct monetary benefits. However, they are now able to make money by earning in-game item non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and tokens, which is facilitated by the play-to-earn revolution.

Blockchain technology has not only opened up more opportunities for gamers and game developers, but it has also offered additional forms of benefits like transparency, ownership, incentive models and digital ownership through NFTs.

The team behind the Seedify project are pursuing a global goal: to acquaint gamers with the blockchain and increase the rate of technology adoption, attract a huge number of users, create more jobs and financial benefits.

Illuvium is an open-world fantasy battle game built on the Ethereum blockchain. Often touted as the first AAA game on Ethereum, Illuvium looks to provide a source of entertainment to both casual gamers and hardcore DeFi fans through a range of collecting and trading features.

To learn more about this project, check out our deep dive of Illuvium.

The world of Illuvium is inhabited by creatures known as Illuvials, who can be captured by players that best them in battle and nurse them back to health. From then on, they become a loyal part of the player’s collection and can be used when battling other adventurers as part of Illuvium’s auto battler gameplay.

The game is a fusion between an open-world exploration game and a PVP battle game. Players can spend their time exploring the expanses of the game world or building up their team of powerful beasts.

Illuvium has been in development since 2020, and is being built by a worldwide team of more than 40 individuals, including the co-founders; serial entrepreneur and early cryptocurrency adopter Kieran Warwick, and experienced game designer Aaron Warwick, who are brothers. (And who are coincidentally also the brothers of Kain Warwick, the co-founder of DeFi platform Synthetix).

The ILV token has a number of uses within the Illuvium ecosystem. It’s the main token used to reward players for their in-game achievements, entitles players to their share of the Illuvium Vault and is used for participating in the governance of the game via the Illuvium decentralized autonomous organization (DAO).

Splinterlands is a digital, collectible card game based on blockchain technology and inspired by games like Magic the Gathering and Hearthstone, where players build a collection of cards with different attributes and battle other players in skills-based matches. It is a game where players can buy, sell and trade their digital assets just as they would with physical trading cards games such as Magic the Gathering, Pokémon and Yu-Gi-Oh!

Splinterlands was created as players lost the ability to truly own their assets (or trading cards) once games went digital. With blockchain technology, it allows players to own and trade their digital assets freely once again. It also allows the game to have true scarcity and transparency, which means all cards on Splinterlands have a verifiable supply and historical record.

Players battle other players by choosing ranked or practice battles. With ranked battles, players can increase their rating. There is no downside to playing ranked battles as a beginner since players with a rating below 100 do not lose ranking points. Battles take place between players of similar strength. When matched up with an opponent, both players choose a set of six monster cards and one summoner card for the battle to destroy all their opponent’s monster cards and win the battle.

Although the game is free-to-play, players need to purchase the summoner’s spellbook for $10 if they want to unlock the game in full. With the summoner’s spellbook, players get access to their account keys and unlock the ability to earn Dark Energy Crystals, which can be redeemed for real currency.

Splinterlands started in May 2018 and launched Splintershards (SPS) – its governance token for the SPS decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) at the end of July 2021. It concluded a $3.6M private token sale for 6.6% of the SPS token supply. After reaching 100,000 players in its first three years, it added another 50,000 in just over a month from June 2021. Splinterland plans to build out its game in the latter half of 2021, with oracle integration planned for Q1 2022.

Enjin Coin is a project of Enjin, a company that provides an ecosystem of interconnected, blockchain-based gaming products. Enjin's flagship offering is the Enjin Network, a social gaming platform through which users can create websites and clans, chat, and host virtual item stores.

Enjin allows game developers to tokenize in-game items on the Ethereum blockchain. It uses Enjin Coin, an ERC-20 token, to back the digital assets issued using its platform, meaning that items can be bought, sold and traded with real-world value.

Enjin Coin was first announced in July 2017, and it launched on the Ethereum mainnet in June 2018.

Enjin Coin (ENJ) is a digital store of value used to back the value of blockchain assets like non-fungible tokens (NFTs).
Every asset minted with the Enjin Platform contains ENJ, a minting resource which is locked inside NFTs and removed from circulation. Minting blockchain assets with ENJ provides a variety of benefits to creators and users:

Infuses them with a reserve value

Ensures their transparency and scarcity

Gives them instant liquidity

Provides utility in games and apps

Anti-inflationary

Enjin's "melting" functionality allows users to destroy their blockchain assets at any time to retrieve the ENJ value from within.

The Enjin blockchain ecosystem aims to offer software products that make it easy for everyone to develop, trade, monetize, and market with blockchain.

Founded in 2009, Enjin has roots in the gaming industry, with the company’s first product, a gaming community platform called the Enjin Network, growing to 20 million users over the course of a decade.

In 2017 following an ICO, Enjin established itself as a leading blockchain ecosystem developer, building a suite of software products that enable anyone to easily mint, manage, trade, distribute, and integrate blockchain assets.

Enjin’s co-founder Witek Radomski wrote the code for one of the first ever non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and is also the co-author of the ERC-1155 Ethereum token standard.

Built on top of an on-chain infrastructure, the Enjin ecosystem enables game developers and businesses of all sizes to use tokenized digital assets as part of their acquisition, retention, engagement, and monetization strategies. The Enjin ecosystem is fueled by Enjin Coin (ENJ), a cryptocurrency used to back the value of blockchain assets.
