In this post, I'll explain how to buy assets in Moon Karts and buy a new kart to improve my racing performance.
Before continuing with Moon Karts, I'll talk a little about Arcade Colony, the gaming platform where I discovered Moon Karts.
Arcade Colony
Arcade Colony is a web-based platform where mainstream games can deploy Web3 features. Newly created games, as well as previously released games, can now add tokens, digital collectibles, trading, renting, earning, and governance to their games. Thus, Arcade Colony hosts a series of published games similar to the Epic Games Store, Apple App Store, Google Playstore, or Steam, but unlike Web2 publishers, Arcade Colony augments new and existing games with Web3 games.
For more information about the platform, read the Whitepapper.
During my journey at Hive, I've written a few posts that may be useful for you to learn more about Arcade Colony and Moon Karts.
In the second post above, I explain how to get started with Moon Karts with an investment of less than $5.
Let's move on to the main focus of this post, how to access the Moon Karts Market and buy a new kart for my account.
Accessing the Moon Karts Market is very simple, just go to the Market option on the Arcade Colony website and select the Moon Karts option.
On this page, you'll sell and buy your assets in Moon Karts. To purchase assets, you'll need Credits or SCRIPT tokens.
I'll use the Lunocityx Kart as an example; it's the rare kart I'll buy to replace my common Astrokart.
The lowest price for the Lunocityx Kart is $0.95 on the Moon Karts Market. I can choose to pay 4,365 SCRIPT or $0.95 in Credits. I'll choose the SCRIPT option because I already have them in my account.
Now I have the Lunocityx Kart in my account and will equip it for use in races.
This is my current NFT combination in Moon Karts. I still have a lot to improve, and my goal is to use my earnings from races and Leaderboards to buy better NFTs and increase my COLONY token staking.
My current cost is 9.70 Fuel per race.
To learn more about my earnings in Moon Karts, I recommend the post linked below.
In this post, I talk about my rewards from Season 40. This was last season, so these are very recent earnings, and the total investment I made in the game was less than $10.
My goal for Season 41 is to reach a higher position on the Leaderboard and earn at least 6,000 COLONY tokens this season.
