Vulcan Forged is an established non-fungible token (NFT) game
studio, marketplace and dApp incubator, most famously known for creating the Vulcanverse. As one of the fastest growing blockchain game and dApp platforms, they offer a plethora of opportunities to earn crypto.

Before I dive into all the ways to earn, I need to cover 3 main concepts, that are crucial to understanding the space.

Example of NFT within the VulcanVerse

A non-fungible token (NFT) is a special type of cryptographic token which represents something unique; non-fungible tokens are thus not mutually interchangeable. Non-fungible tokens are used to create verifiable digital scarcity, as well as digital ownership, and the possibility of asset interoperability across multiple platforms. NFTs are used in several specific applications that require unique digital items like crypto art, digital collectibles, and online gaming.

PYR Token is an ERC-20 token to be ported to Matic. It is built as a settlement, staking and gaming utility token within the entire Vulcan Forged ecosystem. It’s an interoperable token used across different game environments. PYR can be exchanged through exchanges for other crypto such as bitcoin (BTC) Vechain (VET) Etherium (ETH) Polygon (MATIC) and even fiat such as the U.S. Dollar (USD).

A Lava Crystal

LAVA CRYSTALS are an off-chain value linked to player’s wallets, and can be earned by simply playing and engaging with any Vulcan Forged made or hosted game.

Here’s a key component. Each month, users will receive xPYR where x is the % of PYR in the play-to-earn pool, relative to the user’s LAVA count earned versus the total amount of LAVA earned by all users.
