Damn, those alien bastards are gonna’ pay for shooting up my farm…
If you don’t ‘get’ the title above you’re probably “too young to begin the training”, (If you don’t ‘get’ that line you’re — nm, just leave now.) but if like us current pop culture has left you feeling nostalgic for simpler times, then you’ve come to the right place.
Simpler times, when face masks worn indoors was an exclusive practice to armed robbers, and the king of the First Person Shooter genre wasn’t anything to do with acronyms for fish or its ability to engage in modern warfare.
In fact it wasn’t even proper 3D.
The year is 1994, and the man who was going to save all our chicks was Duke Nukem.
Duke Nukem 3D was a landmark title, introducing spotty teens everywhere running a 486 or better, (don’t ask.) to a foul mouthed ass kicking man’s man — the kind of mon that today would probably be facing some sort of social media cancel campaign — for his derogatory remarks about — well, pretty much everything.
So why are we telling you all of this.
Flash forward 26 years later, (Oh god.) and gone are the cheap thrills of bad language and pixelated breasts, this fast paced insta-consume corona virus infested world needs a hero once again.
This time $DUKE will answer the call.
Inspired by the visual style and spirit of Duke Nukem, $DUKE will introduce a twist on yield farming that seeks to stop the all too familiar “pump and dumps” you tend to see in yield farming projects.
Your farm, Duke farm, what’s the difference?
So how does $DUKE propose to change this?
Well as soon as you begin farming with $DUKE you’ll notice something different.
First off, we don’t call you a farmer.
You’re a player. (You wish.)
The player begins, (as we all did way back in 1994) with the first level Hollywood Holocaust.
To “progress to the next level” you’ll need the Hollywood Holocaust NFT.
You can trade your $DUKE for this NFT from the main menu. (Load Game)
Once you have your Hollywood Holocaust NFT, you stake it, and “progress to the next level”, in this case, (I’m sure you Duke fans will remember this one.) Red Light District.
Once the Hollywood Holocaust NFT is staked, it will unlock the option to buy the Red Light District NFT. And so on.
The goal?
Like any game, the goal is to finish the game of course! The first 10 players finishing the game, (i.e. having staked all of their NFTs) then unlock the option to purchase one final NFT.
This NFT has an encoded message that rewards the owner with 10 ETH.
And it doesn’t end there, we the success of $DUKE we have plans for subsequent games, with greater rewards and innovations to follow — but first thing first.
I’m here to kick ass, and farm $DUKE -
and I’m all out of $DUKE
This specific design and structure is intended to “control” the supply of $DUKE, and keep demand high, whereas a typical yield farming venture, sees the early adopters dump their yields on the market first, as the token has no utility other than profit.
$DUKE has utility throughout:
its required to buy NFTs to progress in the game,
its required for the “prize NFTs” up for grabs at the end of the game,
and $DUKE will be required for future games.
As well as its utility and function, it is designed to remain in the ecosystem once it enters it, with all $DUKE a player spends on NFTs throughout the game burnt.
This constant maintenance of the supply will help keep the game running and profitable for all regardless of when they enter.
This is just the beginning.
There’s lots more to go over, and as we get closer to launch day, we’ll be going through more of the specifics — so you’ll be ready to kick ass and chew bubble gum.Hail to the king baby!
