Backed by the crypto VC arm of Delphi Digital and supported by influencers like Cozomo Medici, Gmoney, and Cooper Turley, GG.zip aims to revolutionize gaming by blending Augmented Reality (AR) with crypto in what they call “ARC” (Augmented Reality Crypto).

While the G token isn’t live yet and remains undistributed to wallets, players can start earning G through a referral program. Each player receives 10 invites and earns a portion of the G claimed by their invitees and their invitees’ invitees. Notable figures like Ansem and 0xLawliette are making waves on the invite leaderboard, with a mysterious player named CATCAT leading the charge.
In Solana Hunger Games, Hunters compete fiercely to accumulate the most G, with their progress tracked on a dynamic leaderboard hosted on the GG website. As more players join and trading volume surges, the jackpot of G grows, adding to the adrenaline rush of the competition.
Sponsors, reminiscent of those in the Hunger Games, can bet on their favorite characters, potentially acquiring “Player cards” whose value fluctuates based on leaderboard standings. While specifics on Sponsor mechanics remain elusive, the game promises an immersive and interactive experience akin to the thrilling world of the Hunger Games.
Currently available through invite-only access, eager players are scouring X for invite codes to jump into the action. A quick search for “ggdotzip codes” unveils a trove of codes waiting to unlock the excitement of Solana Hunger Games.
