Product

Matr1x FIRE is the first mobile FPS game in the metaverse and also the first game on the Matr1x platform. This game allows players to win NFTs and digital art assets with significant appreciation potential, such as avatars, weapons, PFPs, gloves, and other items.

The features of Matr1x FIRE include:

1. Digital sovereignty (Play and own): As a native Web3 game, community players truly own game items and props, allowing for free trading and profit sharing.

2. Classic mobile shooting battles: Matr1x FIRE focuses on the strategic nature and team cooperation of the game. Players need precise shooting skills, strategic thinking, and teamwork to achieve victory.

3. Co-creating a world and narrative: Through the creation of a 1-million-word background novel, Matr1x has built an immersive game world and a deep narrative background, co-created with the community.

4. Exquisite game visuals: Matr1x FIRE emphasizes the beauty of game visuals, utilizing advanced graphics technology and visual effects to provide the community players with an ultimate gaming experience.

5. Free to Play: Players can directly experience the game, smooth as playing a Web2 game, without the need for NFTs or asset purchases. They will also randomly receive digital asset rewards. However, if players want to obtain higher-level rewards, they need to own NFT assets.

6. Web3 Esports ecosystem (Esports to own): Building a unique Web3 esports event, including in-game competitive matches, small-scale tournament platforms, regional championships, and professional competitions.

7. Originating from and returning to the community: Matr1x FIRE is always centered around community development. The community will participate in important DAO governance processes, and the majority of profits will be given back to the community.

2. PVE (Player versus Environment): It includes dungeon challenges, world bosses, and guild missions.

The game mode and economic system design of Matr1x FIRE enable players to enjoy the fun of the game while also earning profits, truly realizing the concept of Play to Earn.

Matr1x FIRE's game mode and economic system design allow players to not only enjoy the game but also earn profits through gameplay, achieving a true Play to Earn experience.

Community Governance

From the very beginning, Matr1x has been planning towards the direction of DAO. Initially, the governance rights were temporarily managed by the company. However, as the platform develops, the governance rights will gradually be returned to the community. The DAO mechanism will be used to involve players in the platform's operation and decision-making processes, including game development direction, feature updates, and community rule-making.

Future Plans

Matr1x's future plans include NFT staking, Alpha testing, esports events, major IP collaborations, community partnerships, global ambassador recruitment, Genesis character release, public testing, token issuance, and preparation for new games.

Conclusion

With its unique positioning as a Web3 entertainment platform and an innovative model combining gaming, NFTs, and novel IPs, the Matr1x project has demonstrated tremendous potential. The team's extensive experience and strong background, along with the achievements in fundraising, provide a solid foundation for the project's development. Furthermore, Matr1x's emphasis on community governance and its future plans showcase a deep understanding and long-term vision of the Web3 world. However, as an emerging project, Matr1x also faces challenges such as market competition, technological implementation, and user growth. Looking ahead, we anticipate Matr1x to continue innovating and realizing its vision of a Web3 entertainment platform, offering users a more enjoyable Web3 gaming experience.

  • Economic Daily: 'Patience' is Becoming the Most Scarce and Urgent Demand in the Market

    On September 27, Economic Daily published an article stating that patience is not only a friend of time but also the soil for innovation. Technological innovation inherently features high investment, high risk, and long cycles. Who has the capability to support this expedition in scientific innovation? Tian Xuan, Dean of the Guanghua School of Management at Peking University, provides the answer in his book 'Patient Capital: Building a New Ecology of Long-term Investment'—patient capital. The characteristic of patient capital lies in its pursuit of long-term investment horizons and strategic stability, rather than short-term financial returns. As global economic uncertainty rises and China’s economy stands at a critical juncture of transitioning from factor-driven to innovation-driven growth, the concept of 'patience' is becoming the most scarce and urgent demand in the market. At the macro level, patient capital can effectively smooth short-term market fluctuations and enhance overall market confidence and resilience through long-term asset holding and rational decision-making, while creating a stable financial environment for the implementation of medium- to long-term economic and industrial policies by the state. At the micro level, patient capital can cover the entire development cycle of technological innovation, providing a tolerant space for trial and error in technology, and shifting resources from short-term market projects to long-term innovation projects. Furthermore, the participation of patient capital can send positive signals to the outside world, reduce information asymmetry between market investors and upstream and downstream companies, and alleviate financing difficulties for enterprises. Beyond financial support, it can also promote knowledge transfer and market resource integration through its own network, enhancing the success rate of innovation and research and development in invested companies, and driving the development of new productive forces and the upgrading of economic structure. Strengthening patient capital means not only extending the investment horizon but also respecting the laws of technological iteration, trusting in the long-term evolution of industries, and building a consensus on long-term value. Its deep binding with the real economy will become another important force supporting the stable and long-term development of the Chinese economy.

  • Iranian Military: Pursuit of Trump and Netanyahu Will Continue After War

    On September 27, senior spokesman for the Iranian armed forces, Shekarchi, stated that even after the war ends, the Iranian military will continue to pursue U.S. President Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, labeling them as "murderers" who will inevitably face punishment. "Even if the war ends, we will not spare Trump, Netanyahu, and their accomplices. Regardless of whether they remain in power, they must pay the price for their actions," Shekarchi said. He emphasized that Tehran will never allow the U.S. to regain its former status in the emerging world order. The only safe path for U.S. troops is to withdraw from the Middle East, and the faster they leave, the fewer losses they will incur. "Americans can dream of intervening in the Strait of Hormuz. But if they dare to meddle in the Strait of Hormuz, they will receive a hard slap in the face."

  • Iranian Foreign Minister: Opening of Strait of Hormuz Depends on Iran's Conditions Being Met

    On September 27, Iranian Foreign Minister Zarif stated that Iran will not make concessions to the United States on established conditions. The opening of the Strait of Hormuz depends on whether Iran's proposed conditions are met, and any progress regarding the opening of the Strait will depend on the implementation of these conditions. Iran will never compromise on these issues. Zarif mentioned that Iran has been informed of the U.S. initial response to the proposal for reopening the Strait of Hormuz but has not yet received any specific information conveyed by the mediators. Iran is waiting for the mediators to communicate the final position, and will make decisions based on that. U.S. President Trump stated on the 26th that he rejected Iran's proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. (CCTV News)

  • US to Lower Fuel Economy Standards, Fuel Consumption and Emissions May Rise

    On September 27, US officials announced on Saturday that the Department of Transportation will finalize regulations to significantly lower fuel economy standards for cars on Monday, applicable until 2031. This means the US will reverse the policies promoted during the Biden administration that encouraged automakers to produce more electric vehicles. Former President Trump stated that he has approved new fuel economy standards for cars and trucks, claiming that the new regulations will reduce the prices of new vehicles. US Transportation Secretary Duffy remarked, 'American auto workers will celebrate a major victory on Monday.' According to estimates from the Department of Transportation, the new standards will lower the cost of new cars, but fuel consumption and carbon dioxide emissions will increase over the coming decades.

  • U.S. Spot Bitcoin ETF Sees $2.39 Billion Net Inflow in a Week, Highest Since 2026

  • Riot Repays Coinbase Loan Early and Terminates $200 Million Bitcoin Collateral Credit Line

    On September 26, according to U.S. SEC filings, Bitcoin mining company Riot Platforms (NASDAQ: RIOT) voluntarily repaid all outstanding loans to Coinbase Credit on September 21 and terminated its $200 million credit line, while also releasing the lender's claim on the collateralized Bitcoin. Riot paid the full principal and accrued interest, incurring no early termination fees or penalties, and Coinbase's subsequent lending commitments were also terminated. The credit line, revised in April 2026, carried a fixed annual interest rate of 6.15% with a maturity date extended to April 20, 2027, and Riot had previously fully drawn the amount. At this rate, the annual interest on the $200 million balance is approximately $12.3 million. As of June 30, Riot had pledged 5,821 Bitcoins as collateral, valued at about $340.7 million, which accounted for approximately 51% of its total holdings of 11,380 Bitcoins at that time; the collateral also included USDC and cash held in Coinbase Custody Trust. This credit line was initially established in April 2025 for $100 million with a variable interest rate; it was doubled to $200 million the following month with a one-time fee of $1 million. Since the window for early termination fees specified in the agreement closed on August 21, no fees were required for the repayment in September. Riot is simultaneously expanding its data center operations, having announced in August a 20-year lease agreement with an unnamed AI developer for 191 megawatts of computing power at its Rockdale facility, which is expected to generate approximately $9.1 billion in initial revenue.
