Watch 8 top Filipino gaming streamers battle it out to win up to PHP 50K for their chosen charitable organizations.

Social gaming platform Playdex is thrilled to host the Playdex Cup – KMON Streamer Showdown, a web3 gaming event featuring popular Filipino gamers playing for charity while spreading awareness of web3 gaming.

This one-day event will be live-streamed on Playdex’s Facebook Live on May 13, 2023, Saturday, starting at 5:00 PM.

What is KMON?

KMON Genesis is a competitive web3 roleplaying game where players can breed, train, and fight with their own unique digital monsters that can be purchased as Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs).

With the recent launch of Playdex’s KMON NFT Rental Marketplace, players can now rent NFT monsters for as little as 1 PHP per day. This makes it incredibly easy for gamers of all levels to enter epic battles and start earning token rewards, which can be exchanged for real money.

Who will be playing in the KMON Streamer Showdown?

Playdex has invited eight streamers to the Cup: 

Many of them started streaming during the pandemic, providing entertainment for many Filipinos and turning to web3 gaming as a way to earn during the lockdown.

“I’m excited to connect with fellow gamers and show how accessible and rewarding gaming can be in the web3 space,” says Chansanity, a streamer who became known for providing Axie Infinity scholarships to his community.

“My hope is that the web3 community can continue to grow and expand their knowledge about the potential opportunities and earnings that come with it.”

Overxyze, a technician-turned-full-time streamer, also shared his excitement for the event. “I’m looking forward to showcasing my skills and strategies in KMON. Web3 has opened up a lot of opportunities for gamers, and I’m grateful to be a part of this growing community. My wish is for the web3 ecosystem to continue to expand and provide more innovative and engaging games to users.”
