KuCoin has continued to share its goals in advancing towards Web3, actively seeking out opportunities for bringing the world into a decentralized era. With a major transformation underway, much of the world has turned to play-to-earn (P2E) as an accelerator into Web3.
In that vein, Octo is the perfect nexus to that end, as the platform has been making waves in mobile gaming for years. Players of Octo have been redeeming prizes such as tech or apparel, for their winning efforts for years- truly a P2E experience before P2E was in the industry ethos. Thus, elucidating what sets Octo apart from its competition is simple; most P2E projects are at the MVP or concept phase, and have zero track record behind their efforts. In stark contrast, Octo is a working app with millions of registered users that has been doling out prizes & cryptocurrency to its players for years.

More recently, the platform has been equipped with Web3 utility through the inception of The Octos- a generative Solana NFT collection that instantly sold-out. Octo holders enjoy the benefit of being able to earn Solana (SOL) on the Octo App and will soon receive power ups on in-app games, thus accelerating their earning potential. With the coming introduction of Octo’s native token, $OTK, the ecosystem will offer even more robust Web3 benefits to users.
