DEGA REALMS is a 2D open world built by YOU that’s supported by the DEGA team and our tools!

Now, imagine if you could use $BTC in the DEGA ecosystem? Well, now you can, with a twist!

On-chain Map Publishing is officially LIVE on Rootstock!

What’s Rootstock?

Rootstock is the first, biggest, and longest-lasting Bitcoin sidechain. It’s the only Bitcoin layer 2 that combines the security of Bitcoin’s proof-of-work, with Ethereum’s smart contract capabilities.

Rootstock is open-source, EVM-compatible, and secured by over 60% of Bitcoin’s hashing power, which makes it a gateway to a vibrant ecosystem of dApps that continues to evolve.

You know us at DEGA. We like to meet you where you are.

So, all that being said: We can now publish maps on the Rootstock Mainnet using $RBTC!!!

Ok, so how do I publish my map?

Well, first, head over to the DEGA Realms Web Application. That’s where you can upload and publish the map you created!

Also, we’re providing this handy instruction sheet for your convenience!

If you don’t know how to create a map, the DEGA team has been running training sessions during scheduled events. For those of you who missed them, you can see Freaketon’s recorded training session here. If you need more hand-on help, just hit us up in DISCORD or TELEGRAM!

While you’re here don’t forget to check out the DEGA ELEMENTS COLLECTION! You can learn more about the collection in our previous post. Read it carefully! We like to add all kinds of crazy bonuses and fun stuff to everything we do here at DEGA, all designed to help you Play Your Way to success in our ecosystem!
