Karate Combat is a unique experience combining professional martial arts with gaming and Web3 technology. It features a full contact karate league with fighters from various karate styles and, occasionally, other striking-based martial arts, compete in a unique, 6.5m x 6.5m "combat pit" with 45-degree angled walls that promote continuous action.
A hallmark of Karate Combat is its innovative use of technology. Fights are streamed globally and feature immersive CGI environments created with the Unreal Engine, offering a visually distinct experience. The league is deeply integrated with Web3 technologies, and leverages the Hedera blockchain network.
This integration includes the $KARATE token, which allows fans to participate in the "Up Only Gaming" system which rewards users for wins without forcing them to wager tokens. Through a dedicated mobile app, fans vote for fighters, potentially increasing the fighters' prize pools, and earn more $KARATE tokens if their chosen fighters win, without losing tokens for incorrect picks.
Karate Combat’s unique combat system features rules emphasizing exciting, striking-based combat, with three-minute rounds and a scoring system that rewards aggression and effectiveness. It’s known for its fast-paced action, powerful knockouts, and unique presentation.

DeraGods is a unique digital collectibles game centered around a collection of 303 distinct non-fungible tokens (NFTs) dubbed "gods" which are minted on the Hedera Hashgraph network. It features an immersive and engaging world-building experience within a bespoke metaverse for its community of holders. Acquiring a DeraGods NFT grants access to the in-game decentralized Web3 environment where participants can contribute to building and securing virtual assets.
A distinctive feature of the DeraGods ecosystem is its "faith scale tax system," which rewards NFT holders based on their level of engagement and commitment to the project. Users can earn faith by following the project’s “commandments” which include directives to engage with and share social media content related to the project, recruiting new members, spreading positive commentary about the Hedera ecosystem, and using Hedera-based tokens and blockchain services to conduct cryptocurrency transactions.
A percentage of all DeraGods NFT sales will go toward purchasing and building virtual assets such as virtual real estate, DApps, liquidity pools, and games.
Tradegames is a play-to-earn (P2E) trading simulation game built on the Hedera network, designed to offer a competitive and risk-free environment for users to test their trading skills. The platform allows players to build fantasy portfolios using real-world stock market data and compete against others to see who can achieve the highest portfolio growth over a set period.
To participate in the competitions, users are required to own a "Vault" NFT. These non-fungible tokens (NFTs), minted on Hedera, serve as a player's entry ticket into the game's reward-based tournaments. Winners of these competitions are rewarded with $TG, the platform's native utility token. The $TG token can then be used within the ecosystem to enter exclusive games or for other platform-related activities, creating a self-sustaining game economy.
Developed with support from LimeChain, the platform leverages the Hedera network for its core functions. Both the Vault NFTs and the $TG utility token are Hedera-based. By simulating crypto and stock trading without requiring players to risk actual capital, Tradegames provides an accessible and educational entry point into the world of financial trading, all within a Web3 gaming framework.
