In the fast-paced world of cryptocurrency and virtual reality, the recent surge of MANA’s value has sent shockwaves through the market. But it wasn’t just MANA that experienced a meteoric rise – Atari’s ATRI token and Decentral Games’ DG token also saw unprecedented growth, reaching new all-time highs in the aftermath of a groundbreaking announcement.
The excitement began on March 8, when news broke that Atari, a legendary game manufacturer, would be teaming up with Decentral Games to launch a gaming casino within Decentraland’s virtual realm. This partnership paved the way for the creation of the Atari Casino, set to open its doors in May. Players can look forward to a variety of Atari-themed games, all playable with MANA tokens, the DAI stablecoin, Decentral Games’ DG token, or Atari’s own Atari Token (ATRI).
Decentral Games, a community-owned ecosystem within Decentraland, operates under the governance of its users through the DG DAO. With an impressive 88% of profits directed towards the DG DAO Treasury, the Atari Casino promises to be a lucrative venture for all parties involved.
Situated on a 20-parcel piece of virtual land in Decentraland’s Vegas City, the Atari Casino will transport players back to the golden age of gaming. Known for pioneering classic video games since the 1970s, Atari’s casino will cater to fans of chance games as well as those looking for skill-based challenges.
Following the announcement of the Atari Casino, all three native tokens – MANA, DG, and ATRI – experienced significant gains, reaching new highs in the process. The MANA token surged by an impressive 31%, skyrocketing from $0.447051 to $0.587266 in just one day. This increase marked a return to form for MANA, surpassing its previous all-time high from 2018.
Decentral Games’ DG token also hit a new all-time high, with a 21% spike propelling the price from $233.51 to $289.69. Since its introduction to exchanges in December 2020, the DG token has steadily gained traction in the market.
Meanwhile, Atari’s ATRI token soared by a remarkable 85%, jumping from $0.198990 to $0.369760. This surge led to a new all-time high for ATRI, surpassing its previous peak shortly after its launch in November 2020. As of the latest data, the price of ATRI had dipped slightly to the $0.272 range, still reflecting a substantial 36% increase in the past 24 hours.
The grand opening of the Atari Casino promises to be a spectacle to remember, complete with a launch party and exciting prizes up for grabs. Players can look forward to winning non-fungible tokens and a share of ATRI and DG tokens as they immerse themselves in the world of virtual gaming. With the future of Decentraland looking brighter than ever, the Atari Casino is set to redefine the virtual gaming experience for years to come.
