Press ReleasesKuCoin Spotlight Launches AKEDO Token Sale, Bringing AI-Powered Gaming to Web3 Press Releases 56 minutes ago
KuCoin has unveiled its latest Spotlight token sale, giving users early access to AKEDO (AKE), a project that blends artificial intelligence, gaming, and blockchain technology. The sale offers reduced pricing, exclusive benefits for KuCoin users, and even a principal protection mechanism — underscoring the exchange’s push to back ambitious Web3 projects.
What is AKEDO?
Founded in 2024 and headquartered in Zug, Switzerland, AKEDO is building a multi-agent AI framework designed to reshape how games are created and played in Web3. The platform embeds AI agents directly into game engines, allowing users to generate fully functional, studio-quality games within minutes using simple text prompts — no coding required.
Compared with traditional large language models, AKEDO claims its system is up to 100 times faster and significantly more cost-efficient. The project originally started as Akedog, a Telegram-based “tap-to-earn” game, and has since evolved into a full ecosystem where user-generated content, on-chain ownership, and crypto rewards converge — something the team describes as “TikTok meets Roblox” for blockchain gaming.
The AKEDO ecosystem supports multiple blockchains, including Solana (where the AKE token lives), TON, BNB, Bera, and DuckChain. Its “PlayDrop” feature lets players earn rewards in assets like DOGE, BNB, and USDT across different chains.
Spotlight Token Sale Details
Through KuCoin Spotlight, users can secure AKE tokens before they are publicly listed. Highlights of the sale include:
Discounted entry: Tokens are offered at an 80% Fully Diluted Valuation (FDV) compared to AKEDO’s previous financing round, plus an additional 10% discount for those subscribing with KuCoin’s native token, KCS.
Inclusive allocation: KuCoin is guaranteeing proportional allocations, meaning all participants will receive tokens regardless of demand.
Principal protection: A buyback mechanism is in place to help protect participants’ initial investment, with full details available on KuCoin’s official announcement.
The Spotlight program itself has recently rolled out upgrades like a redesigned interface, dual-crypto support, and new staking benefits, continuing its focus on projects that expand user opportunities in the Web3 space. For participation details, please visit the event landing page.
