Eventual Revenue Generation Possibilities for the DAO: Gotchichain Battleverse presents multiple opportunities for generating revenue for the DAO: Custom Builds: The open-source nature of the project allows for custom game builds to be created and sold on the Polycade AGS platform. These custom builds can be tailored for various use cases, such as unique game modes or special competitions, providing a continuous revenue stream. Player-Funded Prize Pools: Competitions can be organized both online and in-person, with player-funded prize pools. The DAO will receive a portion of the funds from these prize pools for organizing and hosting the events, further increasing community engagement and generating additional revenue.

Conclusion: Gotchichain Battleverse aims to revolutionize the gaming experience by combining the best of open-source development, blockchain technology, and community collaboration. By creating educational content and allowing for custom game builds, we can attract and engage a broader audience. We invite the Aavegotchi community to join us in creating an engaging, dynamic, and immersive battleverse. Together, we can build a game that reflects our collective creativity and passion for gaming.
