2 years ago Love it, maybe hint at some perks for our early supporters
You've been here since the beginning, and we will be contacting you in the Discord to show our thanks.
Is this going to be in Google Docs ?
Dear Nifty Chess community members,
Thank you for using Nifty Chess over the last year or so, and joining our awesome community. It has been so rewarding to meet many people passionate about both Chess and Crypto. We learned a lot through building Nifty Chess. From day 1 of starting this project we aimed to build something that was fun, non-extractive, useful, and added value to chess players using NFTs and other cool tech.
With those goals in mind, we spent most of the last year working with our new partner, Chess.com, to create the cleanest onboarding to crypto ever, and a new experience at the overlap of chess and crypto.
Nifty Chess is now officially sunset, as we present our next iteration: Treasure Chess.
Treasure Chess will let all Chess.com users: Log in with their existing Chess.com account and be given a secure Ethereum wallet, without needing to use metamask or any learn anything about seed phrases/web3. Mint any match verifiably played on Chess.com as an NFT that has achievements and a rarity based on those achievements. Access direct fiat onramp with debit cards, and free mints by default. Not just buy NFTs, but earn money in a marketplace through collecting and selling Treasures.
If you’ve ever minted a game on nifty chess, those NFTs will always still exist on Gnosis Chain. However, none of them will carry over into Treasure Chess, as they are on different networks and the actual structure of the NFTs are very different (the new ones are much more interactive). Also, we may no longer support this website in the future.
I’m so excited to share this next chapter with everyone. Thank you so much for being part of this adventure. Let’s build something great together.
Joseph Schiarizzi, Founder, Nifty Chess April 2022.
