π AMA RECAP: ELEMON x BNB CHAIN π
Kazeem & Arthur (Binance Angel):
It's time!
Hello BNB Chain Communityπ
A warm welcome to another AMA session. Today's AMA is with #Elemon (RPG Play To Earn Game) on BNB Smart Chain Team
Introducing Host & AMA segment: @KazzBinance and @ArthurBinance say hi to the entire community
Introducing Elemon representative: @amyelemonΒ
Amy (Elemon representative):
Hello everyone! It's a huge pleasure for me to be here today too!
PART 1: Q&A
π Q1:
Kazeem (Binance Angel):
I'll be starting the first segment while Arthur takes over mid-way into the AMA. Without wasting much time, let's get it started. First question is always an introductory question
Could you give us a brief introduction about Elemon?
Amy | Elemon:
Great question to start!
Elemon is a disruptive NFT Metaverse game developed entirely by a team of leading Vietnamese blockchain and game developers on BNB Chain and audited by Certik.
Immersing into the magical world of Elematris, gamers need to make their own decision based on a number of in-game variables to build themselves an top-performing Elemon squad.
In specific, the basic in-game knowledge that gamers have to bear in mind to achieve the ultimate glory includes 6 basic stats of an Elemon creature, Own Elemon 101, Purity & Rarity, Body Part & Equipment system, Formation, Skill set, Upgrade Elemon 101 (Star up, Level up, Skill up, Evolution), Aura & the mindblow 18 Elements chart.
From that starting point, gamers can freely experience a wide variety of intriguing game modes such as PVE, PVP, World Boss (Coming soon) & even epic Tournament (Coming soon). Apart from joining in battlefield, gamers can also role-play as a merchant to exchange NFT items & NFT Elemons on Elemonβs marketplace.
What is worth noticing here is the IDLE RPG game genre & AFK mechanism that Elemon chooses to incorporate. These will certainly allow busy players who don't have too much time a day to "grind the game" even when they are offline. Additionally, many more fascinating hidden features are still being locked in the sandbox and currently waiting for the right showtime to debut.
Especially, Elemon also made a historic strategic handshake with Corsair, a top-tier gaming & streaming hardware titans that every gamer is well familiar with. Regarding game development, both entities will work together to produce in-game contents that feature Corsair in the Elemon Universe, along with exciting in-game & offline events.
Currently, a private land only for Corsair where gamers can freely visit, exchange and obtain valuable rewards from Corsair inside and also outside of the game is NOW LIVE & many more features in this special land are still being hidden & waiting for the right time to show up. A few prototypes of Corsair Elemon are also ON AIR in-game! More Corsair Elemons & Corsair NFTs coming soon!
In short, Elemon will feature Corsairβs image in the following sections of the game:
βͺοΈCorsair Elemons
βͺοΈCorsair Equipment
βͺοΈCorsair LabΒ
βͺοΈCorsair PVE Mode
βͺοΈCorsair World Boss
βͺοΈCorsair Land (metaverse)
βͺοΈCorsair Tournament (metaverse)
Elemon game is the first link in the whole Elemon ecosystem. It can be considered as the starting point. The other chains of Elemon Ecosystem will begin to be published since March, 2022.
I think it's enough for our introduction! There's still a lot more to explore, but I'd keep it concise!
Kazeem (Binance Angel): What a rich explanation! Thank you for that answer.
π Q2:
Kazeem (Binance Angel): Next Question:
How many ways can gamers make money from Elemon game so far?
Amy | Elemon:
A very important point indeed! Here it is:
In Elemon, players now can earn ELCOIN (in-game currency) in many different ways such as:
πΈ Farming in AFK mechanism
πΈ Do daily/weekly/main quests
πΈ Join PVE/PVP battles
πΈ Join Challenges feature
Apart from those mentioned above, you can also choose to trade NFT Elemons on Elemon Marketplace to make money in BUSD.
In the future, there will be many more earning mechanisms in ELCOIN & ELMON soon to come!
Kazeem (Binance Angel): Awesome!
π Q3:Β
Kazeem (Binance Angel):Β
Could you be more specific on how ELCOIN (in-game currency) is distributed in Elemonβs AFK mode?
Amy| Elemon:
I will answer this question in the simplest way so that everyone can understand it!
UP TILL NOW, here is how ELCOIN pool operates in-game:
π₯ ELCOIN pool size changes every hour according to the number of players who meet the following criteria:
- Having reached level 15 or higher
- Owning 03 Elemons or more!
The more high-ranking players and Elemons active in the game, the bigger the pool!
π₯ The more Elemons being farmed in AFK mode, the more ELCOIN users will receive.
π₯ Elemon power also determines ELCOIN distribution. As your Elemons power up, the amount of ELCOIN you receive also increases.
π₯ Finally, the higher PVE maps you can conquer, the more ELCOIN you will earn!
We have also just integrated the Stamina mechanism into this AFK mode. In brief, Stamina is an index valued from 0 to 100% that shows the persistance capacity of an Elemon. This figure affects the earning efficiency of that Elemon in AFK mechanism. Once the Stamina of the whole Elemon squad in AFK reduces to 0, player cannot earn ELCOIN & must recover Stamina by ELCOIN to keep on farming.Β
More details about Stamina can be found at this substack article:
Β
π Q4:
Kazeem (Binance Angel):Β
The next question is important to us and the Elemon community
Why Challenges feature attracted a lot of attention from your gaming community? We are really curious about that & desire to listen about the reasons behind
Amy | Elemon:
Very interesting question!
About Challenges feature, players can use their own Elemon squad to challenge other opponents in this mode. Players' squads participating in this feature will be categorized into groups of random challenge lists based on Power score. Players can challenge or be challenged by other players on the list.
The most interesting thing is that after a bet is placed, information about characters, squad components, qualities of Elemons will be completely hidden. The only information displayed is the Power score & the amount of ELCOIN bet. Players can then base on this Power score to make a guess & come to the right decision to choose the most appropriate opponents & bring back home a great deal of ELCOIN if they win. I think thatβs the key factor drawing a great amount of attention from the community to join & compete in this amazing feature!
In the future, more & more attractive challenge mechanics will also be added. So, tune-in!
Kazeem (Binance Angel):Β
New feature and improvement is at the heart of every project. We can't wait to see that.
Arthur (Binance Angel):Β
That's great! Now let's get a little more interesting!
π Q5:
Kazeem (Binance Angel):
I'll take a break now to allow my co-host @ArthurBinance continue with the AMA.
I'll be back during the Quiz segment. π
@ArthurBinance You have the floor
Arthur (Binance Angel):
Now let's get into the metaverse with this question π π₯ Elemonβs ultimate dream is to create a beyond-imagination Metaverse! Could you give us a few sketches of Elemon Metaverse in reality so that everyone can easily envision it?
Amy | Elemon:
The most interesting part indeed! Sure! Let's get ready to go on an adventure with us!
I'd be happy to be your guide into Elemon Metaverse!
Considered as the ultimate goal, Elemon Metaverse is expected to become an invisible bridge erasing the borderline between the real world & virtual world - itβs currently under construction & will be split into multiple phases.
Especially, in the final phase, Elemon Metaverse will run entirely on 3D along with AR & VR integration.
We have just published a small teaser of Corsair Land -Β the first land in Elemon Metaverse to be released in 3D yesterday on our media channels. Check it out at:Β https://t.me/ElemonAnnouncement/719Β
In specific, each player will become a true citizen of Elematris realm. Besides intense warfare against the Corruptor (Dark empire) & the mighty Elemon legions of other players, Elemon Metaverse will also consist of an economic & political society operating in-game similar to real life.
Thus, gamers are able to possess freedom of choice to become whatever they wish as long as they contribute towards the common prosperity of Elematris world. Beyond that, gamers can also freely decide where they desire to settle down as there are 5 mythical lands shaping our magnificent Elematris World as follows: Land of Air, Land of Water, Land of Fire, Land of Forgotten & Land of Earth.
Each landβs supreme leader is known as the Lord. The Lord will split his Land into 13 districts. Each of which will be governed by Clan leader. Working under them are Clan deputies, elite members and members. The leaders' mission is to use the money granted by citizens as well as a portion of bounty awarded by the game system to build a sustainable economy.
Moreover, districts must join hands to invest in training a suicide squad comprised of the most elite Elemons in order to compete in the mortal tournament against other districts & lands to find the champion. All rewards obtained will be divided equally based on the contribution ratio of each player to create fair & transparent profit.
I think thatβs enough for Elemon Metaverse! Many interesting things are waiting for gamers to discover in this fantasy world, so brace yourselves!
Arthur (Binance Angel): Oh spectacular!
π Q6:
Arthur (Binance Angel): Also speaking of that, there is a question that has sounded a lot, and it involves Corsair and gets a lot of attention!Β
As can be seen in-game, there is a special Land called Corsair Land - why does this territory have such a name?
Amy | Elemon:
Elemon has revealed 5 Lands of the Elematris realm in Metaverse Phase 1.Β Among these, there's a special Land named after Corsair - a big name in the hardware landscape!
Corsair Land is The Land high on The Sky located a few hundred meters from the ground, with state-of-the-art technology and breathtaking scenery.
It is a special land in the kingdom of Elematris which received great interest in the Testnet and Mainnet version of Elemon. And to warmly welcome the massive number of "tourists" who love to visit and socialize in this wonderland, Elemon team has opened more chat rooms to lighten the "overloading" number of users visiting Corsair Land.
When gamers visit Corsair land, you will also notice that there are a lot of hidden features like Corsair Lab, Corsair News, Corsair Center Tower, Corsair PVE, Corsair Training Center, which will be gradually released according to our roadmap!
Elemon team is working closely with Corsair representatives to perfect the game modes & the territories of Corsair Land, as well as "integrating" plenty of intriguing Corsair brandβs physical gifts along with lucrative offers when purchasing & using Corsair products to award players in Elemon game.Β
So, prepare to be amazed, gamers!
Arthur (Binance Angel): That is great! We will stay tuned!
π Q7:Β
Arthur (Binance Angel): And now let's go with one that everyone is waiting to know the answer to
As of the Mainnet launch, what are the outstanding milestones that Elemon game is proud of the most so far? What is Elemon team currently busy with these days & your orientation in the upcoming time?
Amy | Elemon:
There's a lot to say about this!
The official game launched on JAN 10, 2022. And ever since, Elemon game has executed a lot of updates at a very fast speed & with regular frequency so as to perfect the game. Along this journey, we also experienced a lot of ups-and-downs. Yet, we have received some encouraging signals at first.
Though Elemon has not deployed any Marketing campaign yet, up till now, we have already achieved some impressive numbers, such as: 138,027 registered users along with 65,000+ Daily Active Users, 171,282 available in-game NFTs and 12,020 burned NFTs via 6,010 Combine times. We also released our mobile version playable on Metamask browser & Mobile web browser.

Elemon Telegram Announcement channel at https://t.me/ElemonAnnouncementΒ has exceeded 325,000+ subscribers.
Regarding local communities, so far Elemon has opened communities in 9 countries on Telegram: Vietnam, China, Arabic, Indonesia, Philippines, Spain , Iran, Brazil, Turkey and there will be more & more communities in the near future.Β
As of Elemon Twitter at @ElemonGame, it is also super active & now surpassed 230,000+ followers.Β
Big love to all the global Elemonians as we could not go this far without the solid support from our beloved fans!
For the time being, we are now focusing on the tasks below:
πΈ Join the race for MVBIV: MetaFi & currently one of the next 7 projects chosen in the Incubation List of the second Batch!
πΈ Complete 1st Big Update of Elemon game to balance in-game economy
πΈ In progress of working with NFT Gaming Guild

πΈ In progress of building Elemon Ecosystem
πΈ In progress of adding more use cases for ELCOIN & ELMON
Besides the pre-planned tasks on our roadmap like Equipment system, New Elemonsβ debuts, Boss Mode, Elemon Aura Enhancement, Metaverse Phase 1 or Corsair PVE mode, Corsair Lucky Wheel, in Q1 & Q2/2022, Elemon is about to promote our Marketing activities to the following markets: Brazil, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, China, Turkey, Russia, Korea, Japan, etc. Currently, we are building our strategy to enter these markets.
Currently, the global financial market has been witnessing great volatility due to Russia-Ukraine conflict that has been causing fear among investors. Crypto market's no exception & also suffered from sharp declines recently.
Yet, Elemon would like to reaffirm that such event won't affect our roadmap & future plan. We're here to stay, working tirelessly to perfect our product, update new features, as well as prepare Marketing strategies for the upcoming time. Market corrections can be considered as the best time to focus on perfecting the product & as soon as the market recovers, the high-quality projects will inevitably rise & experience spectacular growth.
Long live the real value! #BUIDL!
Arthur (Binance Angel):
Of course, you have to keep this in mind, not everything is so easy, as long as there is a clear goal and the support of the community, everything is possible!
π Q8:Β
Arthur (Binance Angel): And to continue about the launch and what's to come, these are things that we all want to know and that catch our attention.
Up till now, what features have made their debuts in Elemon game & in the upcoming time, whatβs the feature soon to be released?
Amy | Elemon:
Not long ago, we have released Combine feature, Friends feature (Phase 1)(especially, users can initiate Friendly Match with Friends without consuming any energy in this Friend feature) & especially Challenges feature. Though newly introduced, Challenges feature has secured its place among the most appealing features in Elemon game. Data prove it all as 65,000,000 ELCOIN has been exchanged after only 24 hours via this feature, of which more than 1.6 million ELCOIN were burned!
ELMON & ELCOIN will be used to serve the entire Elemon Ecosystem at present & in the future. Brand-new features that require ELMON & ELCOIN will soon be updated as below:
πΈ Summon
πΈ Combine 2.0
πΈ Equipment system
πΈ World Boss
πΈ Elemon Aura Enhancement
πΈ Lucky Wheel
πΈ Metaverse phases
πΈ ElementorΒ
πΈ In-Game shopping Feature
πΈ Evolution System
πΈ Life or Death Tournament
πΈ Title System
πΈ And many more!
Arthur (Binance Angel): Wow, that's a lot of stuff!
π Q9:Β
Arthur (Binance Angel): And our last question, but not less important for this segment, to culminate with a doubt that we all have. In the previous question, Elemon also mentioned about Combine feature - what is it & how it works?
Amy | Elemon: This is a pretty fantastic feature as well in Elemon game. It's created to fulfill the need of a lot of gamers that are not satisfied with the Elements, Rarities, Auras or Body parts of their Elemons & also have no demand to use them in their squad! So, what would they do in this case?Β Combine feature comes to the rescue!
Specifically, players will combine 2 Elemons to possess the possibility to receive a brand-new Elemon, even belongs to top-tier class such as Legolas, Cokoner, Skurumi or SkyGaden with low-to-high Rarity levels (B, A, S or even SS, SSS). Especially, the new-born Elemon can have a good chance to own Aura that is 1 level higher than Primary Elemonβs Aura. If lucky enough, players can even earn Pure Elemon. One more important thing: The new-born Elemonβs Power, Level, Star, Skill will all be reset from scratch. Also, Elemonβs Element & Body Part will be randomized..
Combining 2 Elemons in the same species results in a similar-species Elemon. Meanwhile,Β Combining 2 Elemons with different species results in a distinct-species Elemon.
After the Combining process finishes, both Elemons & ELMON tokens in combining fee will be burned!
Combine 2.0 is on its way! Brace yourselves!
Arthur (Binance Angel):Β
Spectacular, excellent response and very good comment! Let's burn! π₯
Well, that's the end of this part of the segment, again a pleasure @amyelemon
I'm going to give way again to @KazzBinance to come with a segment that ALL the community is waiting for!

PART 3: Community Question
Q1: Β Can you expand our knowledge about Your Roadmap this year and the future and any Updates on your Research and development progress?
Amy | Elemon:
This is something that we really want to share with our community and the world!Β
Our roadmap until the end of 2022 has been published on our website, but besides that, I want to give some sneak peeks into our specific plan.
1. We will execute grand marketing schemes in collaboration with Corsair and our partners, together with a big network of KOLs.Β
2. The 3D Metaverse is underway, which will be one of the pieces of our big dream. Elemon team is planning a huge ecosystem in which users will be residents cohabiting in a virtual world that resembles the real world, with cultural, socio-economic structures!
3. And most importantly! A new secret piece of our ecosystem will be introduced within this month. A feature like no others! Are you excited to see it?
Q2: I see the game has thousands of different characters, can you share a bit about the process of creating the characters in Elemon?
Amy | Elemon:
The core of Elemon is our attractive gameplay and state-of-the-art designs! I cannot wait to share it with you!
Let's come with us right away to discover more about that complex process. There are 3 main steps:
π‘ First & foremostΒ is idea β it is also the toughest & the most important part. You wonβt believe in your eyes how many drafts our artists threw away to reach the final decision.
π‘Β After the burden has been removed, everything becomes more relieving. The artists now only have to realize their ideas on paper.
π‘Β And the last step is to breathe life into the character with the coolest animation and amazing special effects. This stage is very complicated and needs talented animators with many years of experience and passion for expressing each character's personality.
Let's give our artists a nice round of applause for their diligence work. Stay tuned for more! π Let's together admire the work of our artists!
Q3: Do you guys feel satisfied by seeing your progresses and achievements till now, when you look back to the day when you have started this project?
Amy | Elemon:
Thanks for this question! Our answer is NO!
Since the beginning of the project, we have achieved a number of quite impressive milestones. But it's not enough! We dream bigger and higher. And we are working very hard to produce better results. We hope that you will always be by our side!
Q4: In what form is the cooperation of Corsair and Elemon? Brand promotion or mutual development?Β
Amy | Elemon:
I think we have talked about this before, but I guess Corsair is so huge that it always remains intriguing! The answer is our collaboration is multi-faceted. We are working together not only on marketing but also on product development, designing and executing new features in Elemon game, and a lot more! We know there has not been a lot of public information, but it's in our strategic planning, so stay tuned!
Q5: Will be Elemon balancing adjustment in the future because the gap between them is quite large (some of elemon quite op)?
Amy | Elemon:
Yes, the team is working hard to balance the game better and better. Each Elemon exerts its power in a different role, any Elemon is too strong, we will make reasonable adjustments!
Q6: Traditional gamers can find it difficult to play NFT games, how can you adress this problem ? Will you have plan to educate them about the benefits and advantage of NFT games ? #Elemon_AMA
Amy | Elemon:
We are working on this! We are collaborating closely with big game guilds and will organize big campaigns to access the clientele of traditional gamers in the coming time!
Soon there will be clear and elaborate instructional videos to make it absolutely accessible for even the most traditional gamers!
Q7: Why did you decide to migrate/build on the BNB Chain? And, what do you hope to see next from the BNB Chain community?Β
Amy | Elemon:
The dual chain architecture of BNB Chain allows its users to effectively develop and build their own decentralized apps (dApps) as well as digital assets on one blockchain. This is one feature that Elemon development team targets.
Furthermore, BNB Chain compatibility with EVM-compatible chains such as Ethereum or a faster blockchain like Solana makes it easier to list tokens on major exchanges. Ethereum transaction costs reached new heights as DeFi coins has surged in 2021. This proved a stumbling block for DeFi's expansion, discouraging widespread participation. Gas expenses onΒ BNB Chain are over 20 times lower than those on Ethereum. As a result, the game for DeFi protocols has changed dramatically.
And for the future, we expect to grow our user base exponentially bigger and bigger with the professional assistance of BNB Chain!
Q8: An interesting question I want to ask you: if the project is invested 100M USD, what will you do for the elemon project in general and the game economy in particular?
Amy | Elemon:
If you gave us this investment, we will build a bigger than ever NFT ecosystem this year and the years to come. But if we didn't? We will still do the same! We will still work on our big dream of building the biggest-ever NFT ecosystem, and eventually one day we will achieve this number. Do you believe?
Q9: Which one of these aspects is Important for you?
1-Increasing Token Price & ValueΒ
2-Empowering Platform DevelopmentΒ
3-Building Community Trust
4-Expanding Partnership GloballyΒ
Amy | Elemon:
Very all-round question indeed!Β
Our answer: All these four are our priorities, especially number 1! We are currently working day and night on No. 2, 3 and 4. And as our efforts pay off, No. 1 will follow!
Q10: You have roadmap for 2023 not
Amy | Elemon: Of course we do! It's being planned and will come out at the end of the second quarter of 2022! Stay tuned!
ENDINGΒ
Arthur (Binance Angel)
