Skill2Earn, an innovative new model for Web3 gaming and entertainment, is transforming the industry by offering an exciting new approach to gameplay rewards.
Traditional Play2Earn games reward gamers for the simple act of playing, but they often struggle with sustainability or lacklustre gameplay.
Skill2Earn challenges this model by prioritising fun and skill. Players in a Skill2Earn game earn rewards for how well they play, not just on time spent playing. This encourages healthy competition, and a sustainable rewards structure.
But Skill2Earn isn't just for gaming. The Winners Circle, an exclusive club for horse racing fans, will use Skill2Earn to reward engagement for viewers of Racing League competitions.
Read more about how Skill2Earn can drive growth on the Zilliqa blockchain:

📣 Update on ZilBridge
The Zilliqa team is working closely with Switcheo and Poly Network to resolve the Zilbridge platform's ongoing disruption, and we are making progress.
Our priority is to restore full functionality to ZilBridge while retaining the integrity of the platform's infrastructure, as extracting user funds from the ZilBridge lock-proxy contract during this disruption would incur the risk of double-spending.
We will publish a root cause analysis (RCA) that clarifies the issues which the relevant teams are working hard to resolve.
We acknowledge the frustration caused by this disruption and are working as quickly as we can to restore functionality.

As the Zilliqa network approaches a more sustainable tokenomics model with reduced inflation, the estimated return for stakers remains attractive, especially compared with other major blockchains.
With attractive rewards, reducing inflation and an upcoming shift to Proof-of-Stake, there has never been a better time to play a crucial role in securing the Zilliqa network.

Attention Zilfam!
As a result of unexpected behaviour in Zilliqa's rewards distribution mechanics, the ongoing adjustment to staking rewards has not been reducing inflation by the amount we had predicted.
We have implemented a workaround to correct this issue, which involves setting the staking reward parameter in the contract to the pre-adjustment rate and then manually remitting the difference between the advertised and collected rewards back to the null address.
This will have the effect of reducing inflation as intended while ensuring the rewards received by stakers continue to follow the previously forecasted trend in line with the monthly adjustments.
This change will be implemented with the next planned adjustment to staking rewards, scheduled for May 2, 2024.
