The Android app is currently in its final phase of testing and will be made available as soon as we have cleaned up the remaining pesky bugs, followed by the MacOS and iOS versions.

Since the end of Q2 of 2021, we have now witnessed the growth of a large ecosystem around blockchain games, and it has barely begun. CyBall has had many challenges that we’ve had to overcome, and has also had some major milestones and successes along the way. As we approach the one-year anniversary, let’s take a look at the CyBall journey so far.On November 4th, 2021 we held the World’s first Triple IGO Event across three different platforms: BinanceNFT, CyBall, and GuildFi. This NFT sale event sold out in under 1 minute and at the time, was record breaking with a trading volume of 10M on Binance NFT within the first 7 days.<figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/0*2D1C82vnQ0WqJTyL" /></figure>We started our raise in July, by beginning talks with our immediate network. After many conversations and pitches, in December 2021, we announced the completion of our seed round raise of $1.8million with BITKRAFT leading the round. It was a tough raise with many groups that we could not squeeze into the round. However, we are very satisfied with the partners and backers who understand and align with our vision. Some of our other backers include Yield Guild Games, Ancient8, Avocado Guild, Animoca Brands, Ascensive Assets, Coin98, GuildFi, Kingsway Capital, Merit Circle, MetaGoons, Raydium, ROK Capital.<figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/0*GLe_FZgPmrmuDfB_.png" /></figure>We were also lucky enough to gather the support of many influential figures and thought leaders within the space to advise and help guide the initial direction of CyBall. Our Angel investors and advisors include Gabby Dizon (Co-founder of YGG), Trung Nguyen (CEO and Co-founder of Axie Infinity), Darren Lau (Founder of The Daily Ape), CryptoPathic (Crypto OG), Tascha Punyaneramitdee (Co-founder of Alpha Finance Labs), Loi Luu (CEO and Co-founder of Kyber Network), Kevin Lu (ex-Band Protocol), Calvin Chu (Core builder of Impossible Finance), Brendan Wong (Co-founder of Avocado Guild) and Or Perelman (CEO of Chromia).On January 17th we released our Alpha version of CyBall along with our bug bounty program for the community to be involved with the initial development of CyBall and to get a taste of what was to come.Not long after, on Feb 19th,2022 Co-Founder Tin Tran had an interview with CoinDesk, where he shared his insights about the p2e scholarship model and why it is inevitable that Southeast Asia would be the world’s first region to see widespread adoption of blockchain games.CyBall officially launched on Feb 22nd,2022. We had an initial DAU base of around 8k members, a lot of whom came from early stage guild partners. To date, CyBall now has 17k daily active users and over 70k account sign ups.<figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/0*RP-S-WDG477NjFja" /></figure>Season 1 of “ROYAL RUMBLE”, our very first Guild League, ran from April 7th to May 16th 2022. Season 2 started from May 17th and is currently ongoing. As mentioned in the previous articles, our early Guild League Seasons will be a simplified league where Guilds are ranked based on the performance of their CyBlocs’ Win %. In the future, these guilds may be directly competing against each other in a knockout style tournament to determine the best.CyLoans V2/Flash Mentoring was introduced on April 22nd 2022 which aims to streamline the mentoring process and to make it a more seamless experience for end users. Nicknames, Clubs, &amp; Guild Leaderboard have also been pushed out as well.In terms of raw numbers, we are now up to 70,000+ signups with 17,000+ DAU, Discord Members: 85,800+, Twitter Followers: 62,300+ &amp; our all time NFT trading volume is at 12M.<h3>What’s Coming?</h3><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/450/1*-750WoOIA6dvajBgrxCFsA.gif" /><figcaption>CyBall Reborn Teaser</figcaption></figure>CyBall Reborn is estimated to be launched by the end of May / early June.

These mutant skins are planned to be sold for $CBT and will hopefully be one of our major upcoming $CBT burn events.Stadiums are next in the list, which are planned to be auctioned off for CBT and/or CYB. We intend to strategically release these slowly so that owners of stadiums get full exposure to the benefits that come with them. In the future, CYB (governance) token holders can also elect for these stadium owners to get some form of rewards/yield.Stay tuned for more updates as we have a series of major developments coming right up!<h3>Links:</h3><a href="https://blog.cyball.com/igo-re-cap-cyballs-nft-drop-sold-out-within-a-minute-and-hits-record-breaking-trading-volume-of-9c3c458e029c">https://blog.cyball.com/igo-re-cap-cyballs-nft-drop-sold-out-within-a-minute-and-hits-record-breaking-trading-volume-of-9c3c458e029c</a><a href="https://blog.cyball.com/cyball-secures-1-8m-seed-round-plus-development-updates-and-more-149fb2b311b6">https://blog.cyball.com/cyball-secures-1-8m-seed-round-plus-development-updates-and-more-149fb2b311b6</a><a href="https://blog.cyball.com/introducing-cyball-alpha-launch-and-bug-bounty-program-event-apply-now-cca9b8aa34fd">https://blog.cyball.com/introducing-cyball-alpha-launch-and-bug-bounty-program-event-apply-now-cca9b8aa34fd</a><a href="https://cyballofficial.medium.com/let-the-mentoring-begin-9bf644d05662">https://cyballofficial.medium.com/let-the-mentoring-begin-9bf644d05662</a><a href="https://blog.cyball.com/launch-details-ecosystem-economic-and-development-updates-248277e703ff">https://blog.cyball.com/launch-details-ecosystem-economic-and-development-updates-248277e703ff</a><a href="https://blog.cyball.com/nickname-clubs-cyloans-v2-flash-mentoring-and-guild-leaderboard-season-1-36255d659c83">https://blog.cyball.com/nickname-clubs-cyloans-v2-flash-mentoring-and-guild-leaderboard-season-1-36255d659c83</a><a href="https://blog.cyball.com/cyball-development-updates-april-5th-2022-20d8e7809de9">https://blog.cyball.com/cyball-development-updates-april-5th-2022-20d8e7809de9</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CyBallOfficial/status/1479116493749047304">https://twitter.com/CyBallOfficial/status/1479116493749047304</a><h3>Join our ever growing community!</h3><ul><li>Chat with our team and other CyBallers on <a href="https://discord.gg/CXrKx679XM">Discord</a> and <a href="https://t.me/cyballofficial">Telegram</a>.</li><li>Follow us on <a href="http://twitter.com/CyBallOfficial">Twitter</a>, <a href="http://instagram.com/cyballofficial">Instagram</a> and subscribe to our <a href="https://t.me/cyballannouncement">Telegram Announcements</a>.</li><li>Check out our <a href="http://cyball.com/">Website</a> and <a href="https://docs.cyball.com/">Docs</a>.</li></ul><img src="https://medium.com/_/stat?event=post.clientViewed&referrerSource=full_rss&postId=ccaf371b7b76" width="1" height="1" alt=""><hr><a href="https://blog.cyball.com/cyball-a-year-in-the-making-ccaf371b7b76">CyBall — A year in the making…</a> was originally published in <a href="https://blog.cyball.com">CyBall Official</a> on Medium, where people are continuing the conversation by highlighting and responding to this story.

Looking Back…
It has been just under 1 year since CyBall was nothing more than an idea, a concept, a thought.
The idea of bringing a football themed play-to-earn game to the blockchain was born in June of 2021, which coincided with the time when the crypto gaming movement began gaining traction. Since the end of Q2 of 2021, we have now witnessed the growth of a large ecosystem around blockchain games, and it has barely begun. CyBall has had many challenges that we’ve had to overcome, and has also had some major milestones and successes along the way. As we approach the one-year anniversary, let’s take a look at the CyBall journey so far.
On November 4th, 2021 we held the World’s first Triple IGO Event across three different platforms: BinanceNFT, CyBall, and GuildFi. This NFT sale event sold out in under 1 minute and at the time, was record breaking with a trading volume of 10M on Binance NFT within the first 7 days.

We were also lucky enough to gather the support of many influential figures and thought leaders within the space to advise and help guide the initial direction of CyBall. Our Angel investors and advisors include Gabby Dizon (Co-founder of YGG), Trung Nguyen (CEO and Co-founder of Axie Infinity), Darren Lau (Founder of The Daily Ape), CryptoPathic (Crypto OG), Tascha Punyaneramitdee (Co-founder of Alpha Finance Labs), Loi Luu (CEO and Co-founder of Kyber Network), Kevin Lu (ex-Band Protocol), Calvin Chu (Core builder of Impossible Finance), Brendan Wong (Co-founder of Avocado Guild) and Or Perelman (CEO of Chromia).
On January 17th we released our Alpha version of CyBall along with our bug bounty program for the community to be involved with the initial development of CyBall and to get a taste of what was to come.
Not long after, on Feb 19th,2022 Co-Founder Tin Tran had an interview with CoinDesk, where he shared his insights about the p2e scholarship model and why it is inevitable that Southeast Asia would be the world’s first region to see widespread adoption of blockchain games.

What’s Coming?
CyBall Reborn Teaser
CyBall Reborn is estimated to be launched by the end of May / early June. The Windows and Android versions will be out first, followed by MacOS and iOS within the coming weeks once we have all the required certificates sorted out. For the first month or so, users can technically still play using the existing client even when Reborn client is out. However, you will miss out on all the fun that we have been working hard at developing if you choose to do so!

Here are some of the several highly anticipated features after CyBall Reborn is out!
First, we intend to prioritize Custom Room so that users can play friendly matches with each other, followed by 5v5 and Training modes, and then Leagues and Tournaments. We also intend to release our special, limited edition Mutant series CyBlocs which are meticulously detailed by our talented Arts team in between the above updates. These mutant skins are planned to be sold for $CBT and will hopefully be one of our major upcoming $CBT burn events.
Stadiums are next in the list, which are planned to be auctioned off for CBT and/or CYB. We intend to strategically release these slowly so that owners of stadiums get full exposure to the benefits that come with them. In the future, CYB (governance) token holders can also elect for these stadium owners to get some form of rewards/yield.
Stay tuned for more updates as we have a series of major developments coming right up!

CyBall — A year in the making…

<figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/0*ZJ1x8zZRwOtn7yaD" /></figure>Ever since the kick-off of CyBall Guild League Season 1 on April 11th, scholars have been battling it out, representing each guild to etch their name in CyBall history by climbing to the top of the leaderboard.Guild Leagues are where the top gaming guilds within CyBall compete against each other to collect $CYB and to be crowned champion of that season.CyBall will host a Guild League season every now and then, and each season will have its own stories of victory and of triumph.<h3>What is CyBall Guild League Season 1?</h3>Season 1 began on April 11th and is the first season of Guild League, which will run from Monday 11th of April until end of Monday 16th of May (inclusive).During this period, we have been introducing many more features such as CyLoans V2, flash mentoring, clubs and nicknames to allow for a controlled and steady population growth and onboarding of more players. For the duration of Season 1, guilds can use the <a href="https://app.cyball.com/#/leaderboard?tabLeaderboard=guilds">Guild Leaderboard</a> on our web-app to track their performance.Note that only guilds who have submitted their applications and been verified will appear on the Guild leaderboard. No further action is required from the Guild side to participate in this competition. For more information about Guild Verification, please read further below.Season 2 will start on Tuesday 17th of May. From Season 2 onwards, we intend to match the timeline of every new Guild League season with a new season of mentoring (i.e. new NFT’s arts). Note that some upcoming mentoring seasons may include new card’s borders/frames/backgrounds only, while other arts seasons may also include new CyBloc body parts.<h4>How does the Guild Leaderboard work?</h4>Guild leaderboard tracks guilds’ performance during the season and ranks them accordingly based on their CyBlocs’ win/loss ratio, and then by the total number of participating CyBlocs.During a season, every CyBloc that a guild owns (in-wallet and/or loaned out) that has played at least one match will be counted and contribute towards the total win/loss as well as total number of CyBlocs of that Guild.For example, Guild A owns a total of 1000 CyBlocs, of which:<ul><li>700 are active (have played at least 1 match during that season regardless of whether they were loaned out to scholars or played by the lenders directly)</li><li>300 are inactive (have played 0 match)</li></ul>=&gt; Guild A will have a total of 700 participating CyBlocs for that season, whose individual win/loss will be added together to compile the Guild’s final win/loss and win rate for the leaderboard.For each season, the top 32 Guilds will get a share of 35,000 $CYB rewards in total:<blockquote>1st: 8,000 $CYB (22.86%%)</blockquote><blockquote>2nd: 4,500 $CYB (12.86%)</blockquote><blockquote>3rd: 2,500 $CYB (7.14%)</blockquote><blockquote>4th: 1,800 $CYB (5.14%)</blockquote><blockquote>5th-6th: 1,500 $CYB (4.29% each)</blockquote><blockquote>7th-8th: 1,200 $CYB (3.43% each)</blockquote><blockquote>9th-12th: 1,000 $CYB (2.86% each)</blockquote><blockquote>13th-16th: 800 $CYB (2.29% each)</blockquote><blockquote>17th-24th: 500 $CYB (1.43% each)</blockquote><blockquote>25th-32nd: 200 $CYB (0.57% each)</blockquote>Note: From Season 2 onwards, only Guilds with at least 150 participating CyBlocs during that season will be eligible to receive rewards. Final eligibility is subject to CyBall&#39;s sole discretion to avoid bad actors.<h4>How to become a verified Guild within CyBall?</h4>At the overwhelming request of our community, we have now decided to officially verify guilds based on the number of CyBlocs held/mentored.This initiative is to recognise the efforts of guilds who are strong supporters of CyBall and to give recognition to those who are heavily invested in CyBall.

Ever since the kick-off of CyBall Guild League Season 1 on April 11th, scholars have been battling it out, representing each guild to etch their name in CyBall history by climbing to the top of the leaderboard.
Guild Leagues are where the top gaming guilds within CyBall compete against each other to collect $CYB and to be crowned champion of that season.
CyBall will host a Guild League season every now and then, and each season will have its own stories of victory and of triumph.
What is CyBall Guild League Season 1?
Season 1 began on April 11th and is the first season of Guild League, which will run from Monday 11th of April until end of Monday 16th of May (inclusive).
During this period, we have been introducing many more features such as CyLoans V2, flash mentoring, clubs and nicknames to allow for a controlled and steady population growth and onboarding of more players. For the duration of Season 1, guilds can use the Guild Leaderboard on our web-app to track their performance.
Note that only guilds who have submitted their applications and been verified will appear on the Guild leaderboard. No further action is required from the Guild side to participate in this competition. For more information about Guild Verification, please read further below.
Season 2 will start on Tuesday 17th of May. From Season 2 onwards, we intend to match the timeline of every new Guild League season with a new season of mentoring (i.e. new NFT’s arts). Note that some upcoming mentoring seasons may include new card’s borders/frames/backgrounds only, while other arts seasons may also include new CyBloc body parts.
How does the Guild Leaderboard work?
Guild leaderboard tracks guilds’ performance during the season and ranks them accordingly based on their CyBlocs’ win/loss ratio, and then by the total number of participating CyBlocs.
During a season, every CyBloc that a guild owns (in-wallet and/or loaned out) that has played at least one match will be counted and contribute towards the total win/loss as well as total number of CyBlocs of that Guild.
For example, Guild A owns a total of 1000 CyBlocs, of which:

700 are active (have played at least 1 match during that season regardless of whether they were loaned out to scholars or played by the lenders directly)
300 are inactive (have played 0 match)

=> Guild A will have a total of 700 participating CyBlocs for that season, whose individual win/loss will be added together to compile the Guild’s final win/loss and win rate for the leaderboard.
For each season, the top 32 Guilds will get a share of 35,000 $CYB rewards in total:
1st: 8,000 $CYB (22.86%%)
2nd: 4,500 $CYB (12.86%)
3rd: 2,500 $CYB (7.14%)
4th: 1,800 $CYB (5.14%)
5th-6th: 1,500 $CYB (4.29% each)
7th-8th: 1,200 $CYB (3.43% each)
9th-12th: 1,000 $CYB (2.86% each)
13th-16th: 800 $CYB (2.29% each)
17th-24th: 500 $CYB (1.43% each)
25th-32nd: 200 $CYB (0.57% each)
Note: From Season 2 onwards, only Guilds with at least 150 participating CyBlocs during that season will be eligible to receive rewards. Final eligibility is subject to CyBall's sole discretion to avoid bad actors.
How to become a verified Guild within CyBall?
At the overwhelming request of our community, we have now decided to officially verify guilds based on the number of CyBlocs held/mentored.This initiative is to recognise the efforts of guilds who are strong supporters of CyBall and to give recognition to those who are heavily invested in CyBall. If you are a guild manager that currently owns 60 or more CyBlocs in CyBall and would like to be verified, please follow this link to complete the Guild Verification application process (Note: Only for Guild Managers and owners, NOT scholars).
Becoming a CyBall Verified Guild gives you access to many benefits including:

Presented with a Guild Badge
Access to Private Channel for CyBall Guilds
Access to Information and data on CyBall provided by team
Invite only Guild tournaments
Benefits as a badge holder

The different tiers of Guild Verification are by number of CyBlocs held as follows (To earn each badge, you must have the minimum number of CyBlocs):

Recruits: 60 CyBlocs
Troopers: 240 CyBlocs
Honored Ballers: 600 CyBlocs
Challengers: 1200 CyBlocs
Distinguished Champions: 3600 CyBlocs
Cyverse Elite: 6000 CyBlocs

Rewards for Global Public Leaderboard (Monthly)
The Global Public Leaderboard has been live for a few weeks and has been a great way for individuals to compare themselves to the rest of the pack. Currently, users can sort the Global Public Leaderboard by total wins or by total $CBT earned.
Every month starting from May 1st, we will be tracking the public monthly leaderboard based on total wins to give out rewards to individuals who outperform the rest. The monthly leaderboard starts (and resets) at the 1st of each month.
The (monthly) top 2,000 users will get a share of 35,000 $CYB rewards in total:
1st: 1,800 $CYB (5.14%)
2nd: 750 $CYB (2.14%)
3rd: 600 $CYB (1.71%)

1001st-2000th: 5 $CYB (0.014% each)
As previously highlighted in our economics update article, we aim to eventually introduce our governance token $CYB as a common rewards token within our ecosystem. $CYB will be rewarded in many special circumstances, in particular, significant contributions to our community. For example, a particular community member’s contributions may clearly stand out to the internal team and will be rewarded from our rewards pool internally.
In the future, as our community and player base continue to grow, the prize pool may also need to be adjusted to suit.
Mentoring Fees and Community Pool NFT Fund Updates
As promised from earlier within the week, we will now be turning the community pool NFT fund’s buy-bot back on with updated parameters to continue to provide more CyLoans opportunities for our community. The bot will now purchase all NFTs subject to the following conditions:

CyBlocs with Mentoring Count = 0/3: $180 or lower
CyBlocs with Mentoring Count = 1/3: $160 or lower
CyBlocs with Mentoring Count = 2/3: $140 or lower

CyLoans integration for Clubs is also not enabled yet. Additionally, a Club’s Owner/Manager cannot leave, or remove themselves, or delete the Club. To edit an existing Club, use the “Home” tab under Club Manager. To create a new Club entirely, users must create a new wallet/account.<h3>CyLoans V2</h3>(Note: Please avoid using Wallet Connect during the CyLoans V1 -&gt; V2 migration process if possible)Guild owners, managers plus all other CyLoans lenders, it’s time to migrate your CyBlocs to CyLoans V2!<figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/0*UcI9a6OtOrhB91Lq" /></figure>Overall CyLoans V2 will contain the same features as V1. The main difference is that V2 will support flash mentoring i.e. users can mentor using CyBlocs loaned out on CyLoansV2 without having to recall / withdraw them back into their wallets.<h4>To migrate from V1 to V2:</h4>1. Head to <a href="https://app.cyball.com/#/profile?tab=cyloans">CyLoans</a> tab on <a href="https://app.cyball.com">https://app.cyball.com</a>2. Put CyBlocs that you would like to migrate from V1 to V2 into “Recalling” status by delisting in “Listed”, or by canceling within “Leased” tab<figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/0*G48KOn619mhwRRjr" /><figcaption>Delist CyBlocs on V1 within “Listed” tab to put them into “Recalling”</figcaption></figure><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/0*QgXVnmRSRwAYKCi3" /><figcaption>Cancel CyBlocs on V1 within “Leased” tab to put them into “Recalling”</figcaption></figure>3. Head to “Recalling” tab, select all CyBlocs on V1 that you would like to migrate to V2 and click “Migrate”.Important:<ul><li>There are 2 transactions that need to be confirmed at this step.</li><li>You must have enough BNB for gas fees. Migrating multiple CyBlocs require a lot of BNB to cover gas.</li></ul>(3 if it is the first time you migrate as it will require a one-time only transaction to approve CyLoans V2 contract).<ul><li>The first transaction is a withdrawal from V1.</li><li>The second transaction is a deposit into V2.</li><li>If you only confirm the first transaction, the CyBlocs will be withdrawn from V1 (into your wallet) without getting deposited back into V2 i.e. the first transaction is just like a normal “Finalize Recall”.</li></ul><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/0*ohrBvZFCUhn8CUkM" /></figure>That’s it! Repeat the process until you have migrated all of your CyBlocs from CyLoans V1 to CyLoans V2.Note:<ul><li>CyBlocs that were in “Leased” tab prior to the migration will be going back to “Leased” tab post-migration.</li><li>CyBlocs that were in “Listed” tab prior to the migration will be listed back to “Listed” tab post-migration.</li><li>If the steps above are followed correctly, CyBlocs’ levels should not reset and the borrowers should experience no gameplay interruption at all. It is however still recommended that users should not play during the migration process.</li><li>Please avoid using Wallet Connect during the CyLoans V1 -&gt; V2 migration process if possible, as Wallet Connect appears to only prompt one (instead of two) required transactions for the migration process.</li><li>If you must use Wallet Connect, ensure to: - 1. Click “Migrate”, confirm the first transaction - 2.1. If a second transaction gets prompted, also confirm it -&gt; finish - 2.2 If a second transaction does NOT get prompted, head to “Wallet” tab and list the CyBlocs you are trying to migrate up onto CyLoans V2 immediately. This re-listing step needs to be done within 5 minutes of the first transaction in order for them to be changed back to “Leased”. If the re-listing is done after 30 minutes have passed since the first transaction, then those CyBlocs will go onto “Listed” like normal.</li><li>TL;DR: If you only confirm 1 transaction out of the 2 required for migration, head to “wallet” tab and relist the relevant CyBlocs within 30 minutes.</li></ul><h3>Flash Mentoring</h3>That’s right, Flash Mentoring will also go live together with CyLoans V2!Once users have migrated CyBlocs over to V2, they can start mentoring CyBlocs that are being lent out immediately without having to recall/withdraw them back into their wallets.The mentoring process is exactly the same as it was, with the addition of a new tab called “Leased” where all CyBlocs within CyLoans that can be used to mentor are shown. This includes CyBlocs that are in “Listed”, “Recalling” and “Leased” on CyLoans V2 altogether.Note: Users will need to first approve their CyBlocs and CBT/BUSD spending for the new Flash Mentor before they can use flash mentoring. These approval transactions are one-time only and will be required the first time you mentor using CyBlocs that are on CyLoans V2.<figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/0*hmZIt01LwA-rBk0Y" /></figure><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/0*guMYf4kBG8ZhT_B-" /></figure><h3>Guild Leaderboard (Season 1)</h3><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/0*JP-TTinrCKOMULKm" /></figure>We have put together a leaderboard for our Season 1 Guild League, which will be available at <a href="https://app.cyball.com/#/leaderboard?tabLeaderboard=guilds">https://app.cyball.com/#/leaderboard?tabLeaderboard=guilds</a> from 1 PM UTC today onwards.As mentioned in the <a href="https://blog.cyball.com/cyball-development-updates-april-5th-2022-20d8e7809de9">previous article</a>, Season 1 Guild League started from April 11 onwards and is a simplified league in which guilds are ranked based on the performance of their loaned CyBlocs’ Win %.

NOTE: This is a pre-release of Clubs which will only allow certain whitelisted guilds (those that are on the Guilds Leaderboard) to create and manage their Clubs. CyLoans integration for Clubs is also not enabled yet. Additionally, a Club’s Owner/Manager cannot leave, or remove themselves, or delete the Club. To edit an existing Club, use the “Home” tab under Club Manager. To create a new Club entirely, users must create a new wallet/account.
CyLoans V2
(Note: Please avoid using Wallet Connect during the CyLoans V1 -> V2 migration process if possible)
Guild owners, managers plus all other CyLoans lenders, it’s time to migrate your CyBlocs to CyLoans V2!

Overall CyLoans V2 will contain the same features as V1. The main difference is that V2 will support flash mentoring i.e. users can mentor using CyBlocs loaned out on CyLoansV2 without having to recall / withdraw them back into their wallets.
To migrate from V1 to V2:
1. Head to CyLoans tab on https://app.cyball.com
2. Put CyBlocs that you would like to migrate from V1 to V2 into “Recalling” status by delisting in “Listed”, or by canceling within “Leased” tab
Delist CyBlocs on V1 within “Listed” tab to put them into “Recalling”Cancel CyBlocs on V1 within “Leased” tab to put them into “Recalling”
3. Head to “Recalling” tab, select all CyBlocs on V1 that you would like to migrate to V2 and click “Migrate”.
Important:

There are 2 transactions that need to be confirmed at this step.
You must have enough BNB for gas fees. Migrating multiple CyBlocs require a lot of BNB to cover gas.

(3 if it is the first time you migrate as it will require a one-time only transaction to approve CyLoans V2 contract).

The first transaction is a withdrawal from V1.
The second transaction is a deposit into V2.
If you only confirm the first transaction, the CyBlocs will be withdrawn from V1 (into your wallet) without getting deposited back into V2 i.e. the first transaction is just like a normal “Finalize Recall”.

That’s it! Repeat the process until you have migrated all of your CyBlocs from CyLoans V1 to CyLoans V2.
Note:

CyBlocs that were in “Leased” tab prior to the migration will be going back to “Leased” tab post-migration.
CyBlocs that were in “Listed” tab prior to the migration will be listed back to “Listed” tab post-migration.
If the steps above are followed correctly, CyBlocs’ levels should not reset and the borrowers should experience no gameplay interruption at all. It is however still recommended that users should not play during the migration process.
Please avoid using Wallet Connect during the CyLoans V1 -> V2 migration process if possible, as Wallet Connect appears to only prompt one (instead of two) required transactions for the migration process.
If you must use Wallet Connect, ensure to:
- 1. Click “Migrate”, confirm the first transaction
- 2.1. If a second transaction gets prompted, also confirm it -> finish
- 2.2 If a second transaction does NOT get prompted, head to “Wallet” tab and list the CyBlocs you are trying to migrate up onto CyLoans V2 immediately. This re-listing step needs to be done within 5 minutes of the first transaction in order for them to be changed back to “Leased”. If the re-listing is done after 30 minutes have passed since the first transaction, then those CyBlocs will go onto “Listed” like normal.
TL;DR: If you only confirm 1 transaction out of the 2 required for migration, head to “wallet” tab and relist the relevant CyBlocs within 30 minutes.

Flash Mentoring
That’s right, Flash Mentoring will also go live together with CyLoans V2!
Once users have migrated CyBlocs over to V2, they can start mentoring CyBlocs that are being lent out immediately without having to recall/withdraw them back into their wallets.
The mentoring process is exactly the same as it was, with the addition of a new tab called “Leased” where all CyBlocs within CyLoans that can be used to mentor are shown. This includes CyBlocs that are in “Listed”, “Recalling” and “Leased” on CyLoans V2 altogether.
Note: Users will need to first approve their CyBlocs and CBT/BUSD spending for the new Flash Mentor before they can use flash mentoring. These approval transactions are one-time only and will be required the first time you mentor using CyBlocs that are on CyLoans V2.

Guild Leaderboard (Season 1)

We have put together a leaderboard for our Season 1 Guild League, which will be available at https://app.cyball.com/#/leaderboard?tabLeaderboard=guilds from 1 PM UTC today onwards.
As mentioned in the previous article, Season 1 Guild League started from April 11 onwards and is a simplified league in which guilds are ranked based on the performance of their loaned CyBlocs’ Win %. The leaderboard will also display the total holdings of CyBlocs per guild with detailed breakdown of CyBlocs based on their Class.

To start off, the first release will be our mutant collection, which has been meticulously detailed by our arts team.Users can buy potions and cast them onto their existing NFTs to create a whole new aesthetic. These skin sets do not carry any additional skill upgrades to start off, but may in future.The skin sets will be sold for CBT which will then be burned, which will be one of our major upcoming CBT burn events.<figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/466/1*0k8s1ZlqDUKSujCbO5FBXw.png" /></figure><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/461/1*mId_tSdAMzXo4ny89eBAVw.png" /></figure><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/471/1*oUIpZDTUIclL97i2NcJnAw.png" /></figure><h4>Stadiums</h4>After the release of CyBall, we will begin rolling out the first batch of stadiums, most likely towards the latter part of the quarter.Stadiums will initially be auctioned off for CBT and/or CYB. We intend to strategically release these slowly so that owners of stadiums get full exposure to the benefits that come with them.Initially, if resources allow, stadium owners may be able to provide inputs on the full design / aesthetic of their Stadium NFT. In the future, governance token holders can also elect for these stadium owners to get some form of rewards/yield.<figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*yFmhyCSOoVcU3LqXuraJYQ.png" /></figure><h4>CYB Launch and Dashboard</h4>We anticipate to launch CYB in mid/late Q2. Full details will be announced in upcoming weeks.As mentioned in previous weeks, all users who have been earning CBT since the beginning have also been accruing genesis CYB rewards. As a reminder, the initial genesis reward will be LIVE until the end of April 21st.We will have a dashboard detailing the total amount of CYB earned to date included in the “Rewards” tab on our webapp by the end of this week. Please note that all CYB earned as part of the genesis CYB rewards program will follow a vesting scheme/distribution. This vesting scheme will depend on a ‘loyalty’ type algorithm. Users who have been actively mentoring and contributing back to the CyBall ecosystem will have a more aggressive unlock schedule whereas users who have not been as active, will have a much more conservative unlock schedule. More details will be released once we have finalized CYB launch plans.<h4>Flash Mentoring/CyLoans V2</h4>CyBall’s cornerstone feature and proprietary technology, CyLoans, has been revolutionary in assisting guilds and managers in streamlining the scholarship management process.During the Genesis Mentoring Phase, CyLoans V1 was live, users were obligated to recall their CyBlocs to enter them into the mentoring process (level resets and cooldown periods were turned off during Genesis Mentoring).Shortly from now, we would like to introduce what you have all been waiting for, CyLoans V2!In approximately 2 weeks, users will be able to migrate CyBlocs from CyLoans V1 to V2, which will then allow users to mentor their CyBlocs without removing or recalling them from the CyLoans market anymore.With CyLoans V2, mentoring new CyBlocs simply cannot become easier. Once users have migrated their CyBlocs from CyLoans V1 to V2, they will be able to enjoy all the benefits and features of this update.Another important feature of CyLoans V2 is also the function of setting up “clubs” which represent guilds/clans/teams that can contain smaller subdivisions to better organise and coordinate scholars.Once the abovementioned featuers are out, the onboarding and mentoring processes will both get a whole lot easier and we expect this to drastically influence population growth over the next 1–2 months.<figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*ZPWGOGFok9xN780zMuwPow.png" /></figure><h4>New Mentoring Costs</h4><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/985/1*J7hzPZwBLXP3GlF63Fj9pQ.png" /><figcaption>Season 1 Mentoring Fee (updated)</figcaption></figure>These changes will come into effect from Tuesday, 12th April 2022 at approximately 6.00 AM UTC.Note that with the changes above, users can choose to pay CBT OR BUSD, not CBT AND BUSD as was previously the case. These changes will apply for all CyBlocs, old and new.<h4>Community Pool NFT Fund</h4>As mentioned in previous updates, one of the big use cases for the BUSD collected in mentoring is to go towards game development. The first of these developments is to create a community pool of NFTs that will be purchased on market.These NFTs will then be assigned to community members (via CyLoans) who are the most active and helpful within the CyBall community. The reward split will be given at 10% to borrower, and will be designed to introduce new players to CyBall, who can then hopefully get a more extensive scholarship with our partner guilds.Any excess CBT earnings (for lender) will be used for mentoring, to create even more opportunities for our new and contributing users, or will be burned (if there is excess supply of CBT).Initially, the team will decide and dictate how the NFT acquisition works. However, once the governance token (CYB) and DAO are released, users will be able to decide on the level of NFT purchases, as well as rewards share / distribution to borrowers.The community pool will purchase all NFTs priced under X, a constant. X may change depending on the assets available within the community pool treasury, the NFT population and users numbers, as well as the cost of mentoring. We will initially set X at 205.We hope that this plan will incentivise and strengthen our community to grow to even greater levels.<h4>Guild Leagues</h4>From April 11, we will begin hosting the first of our guild leagues. Guild leagues will see the top guilds in CyBall compete against each other.Our Season 1 Guild League will be a simplified league which will see the Guilds being ranked based on the performance of their CyBlocs&#39; Win %. In future we aim to have these guilds directly competing against each other in a knockout style tournament to determine the best.

The top 10 users on our win-loss-winrate leaderboard (monthly) will be eligible for CYB rewards. More details on this will be announced shortly once the leaderboard has been updated.<h4>Matchmaking and other rebalances</h4>In upcoming weeks, we will be making tweaks to the matchmaking algorithm.Instead of matchmaking on total skills unweighted, we’ll be matchmaking on a new formula, which is Base Skills + y * Added Skills, where y &gt; 1. The essence of this update is to emphasize Added Skills, that is skills assigned by the player, are more valuable than Base Skills.As CyBall Reborn gets closer, we will also be adding in and removing several Tactic Cards. We do not aim to have any changes to Traits as it stands, however this might change in the future.<figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*0ZHKKnrZIWFWYaCVFhwetw.png" /></figure><h4>Future Updates</h4>In the near future after the release of CyBall Reborn, we will be releasing the highly anticipated 5v5 gameplay modes.

CyBall Development Updates — April 5th 2022
Concept of Login Screem for CyBall Reborn
General Overview
We have been overwhelmed with the positive reaction to CyBall thus far. Since launch a month ago, we are now up to 53,000+ sign-ups as well as 13,000+ DAU.
After the Genesis Mentoring period, our CyBloc population has nearly doubled in size, largely in part to our large number of participating guilds (50+). However, with growth comes the need to make adjustments to the game to keep our economy thriving.
In this update, we aim to highlight the changes that will take course for the rest of Season 1.
CyBall Reborn
It’s been a busy two months but we’ve listened to all the fantastic feedback from the community and are in the midst of developing a remastered version, CyBall Reborn!
Based on current progress, we are now estimating a mid May launch for CyBall Reborn. We understand that this is a few weeks delayed from our initial estimate, however, we are sure that users will not be disappointed by these new features.
Upcoming “Reborn” features

Improved user experience with more intuitive controls during in-game matches
More detailed results screen post-match to better enable technical analysis and review of strategies
Updated artwork and animations (take a sneak peek below)
Further improvements to matchmaking
And finally, CyBall is coming to both iOS and macOS! (Most likely Testflight, TBD once we have confirmations from Apple)

Potions
As heavily requested by our community, we will be releasing several limited edition skin sets for our beautiful CyBlocs. To start off, the first release will be our mutant collection, which has been meticulously detailed by our arts team.
Users can buy potions and cast them onto their existing NFTs to create a whole new aesthetic. These skin sets do not carry any additional skill upgrades to start off, but may in future.
The skin sets will be sold for CBT which will then be burned, which will be one of our major upcoming CBT burn events.

Stadiums
After the release of CyBall, we will begin rolling out the first batch of stadiums, most likely towards the latter part of the quarter.
Stadiums will initially be auctioned off for CBT and/or CYB. We intend to strategically release these slowly so that owners of stadiums get full exposure to the benefits that come with them.
Initially, if resources allow, stadium owners may be able to provide inputs on the full design / aesthetic of their Stadium NFT. In the future, governance token holders can also elect for these stadium owners to get some form of rewards/yield.

CYB Launch and Dashboard
We anticipate to launch CYB in mid/late Q2. Full details will be announced in upcoming weeks.
As mentioned in previous weeks, all users who have been earning CBT since the beginning have also been accruing genesis CYB rewards. As a reminder, the initial genesis reward will be LIVE until the end of April 21st.

Users who have been actively mentoring and contributing back to the CyBall ecosystem will have a more aggressive unlock schedule whereas users who have not been as active, will have a much more conservative unlock schedule. More details will be released once we have finalized CYB launch plans.
Flash Mentoring/CyLoans V2
CyBall’s cornerstone feature and proprietary technology, CyLoans, has been revolutionary in assisting guilds and managers in streamlining the scholarship management process.
During the Genesis Mentoring Phase, CyLoans V1 was live, users were obligated to recall their CyBlocs to enter them into the mentoring process (level resets and cooldown periods were turned off during Genesis Mentoring).
Shortly from now, we would like to introduce what you have all been waiting for, CyLoans V2!
In approximately 2 weeks, users will be able to migrate CyBlocs from CyLoans V1 to V2, which will then allow users to mentor their CyBlocs without removing or recalling them from the CyLoans market anymore.
With CyLoans V2, mentoring new CyBlocs simply cannot become easier. Once users have migrated their CyBlocs from CyLoans V1 to V2, they will be able to enjoy all the benefits and features of this update.
Another important feature of CyLoans V2 is also the function of setting up “clubs” which represent guilds/clans/teams that can contain smaller subdivisions to better organise and coordinate scholars.
Once the abovementioned featuers are out, the onboarding and mentoring processes will both get a whole lot easier and we expect this to drastically influence population growth over the next 1–2 months.

New Mentoring Costs
Season 1 Mentoring Fee (updated)
These changes will come into effect from Tuesday, 12th April 2022 at approximately 6.00 AM UTC.
Note that with the changes above, users can choose to pay CBT OR BUSD, not CBT AND BUSD as was previously the case. These changes will apply for all CyBlocs, old and new.
Community Pool NFT Fund
As mentioned in previous updates, one of the big use cases for the BUSD collected in mentoring is to go towards game development. The first of these developments is to create a community pool of NFTs that will be purchased on market.

In future we aim to have these guilds directly competing against each other in a knockout style tournament to determine the best. More details to be released in a separate article.

Leaderboard Reset
We are currently adding more filters to the leaderboard and will also be resetting our leaderboard at the start of each month.
This leaderboard will stay in place until the end of the month. The top 10 users on our win-loss-winrate leaderboard (monthly) will be eligible for CYB rewards. More details on this will be announced shortly once the leaderboard has been updated.
Matchmaking and other rebalances
In upcoming weeks, we will be making tweaks to the matchmaking algorithm.

CyBall Development Updates — April 5th 2022

<figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/0*AuAXgCzspTG5XGt4" /></figure>The long awaited CyBloc Mentoring is about to begin.Mentoring feature will be released at 1.00 PM UTC Tuesday 22 March 2022, which will also be the start of the Genesis Mentoring period.The current Genesis CyBloc population is 29,970, which we expect that through our Genesis Mentoring phase, will increase significantly. With a bigger CyBloc population, more users will be able to join the CyBall metaverse and as a direct result our matchmaking algorithm will also have a larger data pool to work with. As such, it is expected that users will also see further improvements in matchmaking and be matched up with those much closer to them in total skills.CyLoans v2 and Flash Mentoring feature will not be live during the Genesis Mentoring phase and CyBlocs must therefore be recalled to be accessible for the Mentoring process. As mentioned in <a href="https://blog.cyball.com/mentoring-release-postponed-for-7-days-b9a5e874a498">the previous post</a>, we did not want to upset all CyBloc owners/lenders/guilds who intend to mentor, and have thus set the following conditions for the duration of the Genesis Mentoring Period:<ul><li>Mentoring’s 5-day Cooldown will be switched off from 1.00 PM UTC 22/03/2022 to 1.00 PM UTC 27/03/2022</li><li>CyBloc level resets will be switched off from 12.00 PM UTC 22/03/2022 to 2.00 PM UTC 27/03/22</li><li>CyLoans’ 24-hour recall timelock will be switched off from 12.00 PM UTC 22/03/2022 to 2.00 PM UTC 27/03/2022</li><li>Genesis Rewards Program ($CYB) will also be paused for 5 days from 1.00 PM UTC 22/03/2022 to 1.00 PM UTC 27/03/2022, i.e. for the duration of the Genesis Mentoring period, and will then continue for an extended period of 5 days (i.e. day 55 to 59) to make up for this lost time. (For those who might have forgot what Genesis Rewards Program is, please refer to our <a href="https://blog.cyball.com/launch-details-ecosystem-economic-and-development-updates-248277e703ff">Launch Details blog post</a>)</li></ul>(also available here: <a href="https://docs.cyball.com/ecosystem/mentoring/mentoring-instructions">https://docs.cyball.com/ecosystem/mentoring/mentoring-instructions</a>)1.

The long awaited CyBloc Mentoring is about to begin.
Mentoring feature will be released at 1.00 PM UTC Tuesday 22 March 2022, which will also be the start of the Genesis Mentoring period.
The current Genesis CyBloc population is 29,970, which we expect that through our Genesis Mentoring phase, will increase significantly. With a bigger CyBloc population, more users will be able to join the CyBall metaverse and as a direct result our matchmaking algorithm will also have a larger data pool to work with. As such, it is expected that users will also see further improvements in matchmaking and be matched up with those much closer to them in total skills.
CyLoans v2 and Flash Mentoring feature will not be live during the Genesis Mentoring phase and CyBlocs must therefore be recalled to be accessible for the Mentoring process. As mentioned in the previous post, we did not want to upset all CyBloc owners/lenders/guilds who intend to mentor, and have thus set the following conditions for the duration of the Genesis Mentoring Period:

Mentoring’s 5-day Cooldown will be switched off from 1.00 PM UTC 22/03/2022 to 1.00 PM UTC 27/03/2022
CyBloc level resets will be switched off from 12.00 PM UTC 22/03/2022 to 2.00 PM UTC 27/03/22
CyLoans’ 24-hour recall timelock will be switched off from 12.00 PM UTC 22/03/2022 to 2.00 PM UTC 27/03/2022
Genesis Rewards Program ($CYB) will also be paused for 5 days from 1.00 PM UTC 22/03/2022 to 1.00 PM UTC 27/03/2022, i.e. for the duration of the Genesis Mentoring period, and will then continue for an extended period of 5 days (i.e. day 55 to 59) to make up for this lost time. (For those who might have forgot what Genesis Rewards Program is, please refer to our Launch Details blog post)

(also available here: https://docs.cyball.com/ecosystem/mentoring/mentoring-instructions)
1. Head to the “Mentors” tab from the CyBall Web App

2. Select 1 or 2 CyBloc(s) to be used in Mentoring

3. Click ‘Approve CBT’, ‘Approve BUSD’ and confirm each transaction in your crypto wallet (requires enough BNB in wallet to cover gas costs)

4. Click ‘Start Mentoring’ and confirm the transaction in your crypto wallet. Ensure you have sufficient fees (CBT and BUSD) to cover the Mentoring fee as well as enough BNB to cover gas costs

5. Once the transaction is confirmed, the newly minted CyPod from Mentoring can be found in the CyPods tab. This CyPod can either be sold on CyBall’s NFT Marketplace, or, upon waiting for 5 days, be opened to reveal a brand new CyBloc

For a recap on Mentoring, including the Genesis Mentoring Phase,please refer to our Whitepaper: https://docs.cyball.com/ecosystem/mentoring
Note there are boosted and unboosted CyPods:

Boosted CyPods are minted when two mentors of the same Classes are used in the Mentoring process and have a higher chance of opening into CyBlocs of better Class
Unboosted CyPods are minted when one single mentor, or two mentors of different Classes are used in the Mentoring process
Boosted CyPods will have the word “Boosted” in the CyPod Details Page, have 2 lines and a lot more particles shining in the background video compared to unboosted CyPods

CyBallers!
We’d like to thank our community and supporters for everyone’s involvement in the recent successful launch of CyBall game, which has had an overwhelmingly positive reception, as well as the smooth launch of our rewards and utility token $CBT.
As a quick recap, we now have 34,000 accounts signed up, close to 8,000 daily active users, with over 840,000 matches played and over 6,000,000 $CBT earned to date.
Everyone is eager for the next major milestone for CyBall, being the introduction of our Mentoring System, and in particular, the Genesis Mentoring Phase (first 5 days of Mentoring).
Today, we would like to inform our community that the CyBall team has made the decision to push back the release of our Mentoring feature by one week (7 days) to the 22nd of March. This decision was made to give the team an extra week to perfect and fine tune the commencement of mentoring including creating more CyBloc parts for Season 1, as well as to make sure the Genesis Mentoring period is as streamlined as possible for lenders and borrowers who are using CyLoans.

CyBallers, get ready to claim your $CBT!
In this article, we lay out a few short instructions on how to request, claim and trade your very first $CBT on Binance Smart Chain (now called BNB Chain).
💰 $CBT Claiming
TL;DR:

Connect your wallet: https://app.cyball.com/#/profile?tab=reward

→ Request reward (once every 7 days)
→ Wait for approval (First one starts 1.00 PM UTC Tuesday 08/03)
→ Claim the requested amount (anytime after your request has been approved and shows “Ready-Claim”)
Important notes:

Users must have enough BNB in their crypto wallets in order to cover the gas costs to claim. It is estimated that each claim should cost about 0.0015 BNB.
A request for $CBT rewards will withdraw the entire accrued “batteries” amount (up until the request time) from the CyBall game i.e. the in-game “batteries” number will be reset to 0.
Users can only request for $CBT rewards once every 7 days. As such, any newly earned amount after a previous request will be accrued and included in the next request.
Requests must be reviewed and approved by the CyBall team before the requested $CBT can be claimed by users.

Example:
10.00 AM UTC 08/03: User A requests for 1,000 $CBT
10.00 AM to 1.00 PM UTC 08/03: User A plays and earns another 50 batteries between UTC 08/03
1.00 PM UTC 08/03: User A’s request for 1,000 $CBT gets approved
2.00 PM UTC 08/03: User A claims 1,000 $CBT
As observed above, User A only claimed what he/she requested for. The extra 50 $CBT will be included in the next batch (which can be requested at least 7 days later).
When and how can I request for my rewards?
Users can request to withdraw the accrued $CBT rewards shown in their account once every 7 days, starting NOW.
Any newly earned amount after a previous request will be accrued and included in the next request. As such, some users may opt to request earlier or later depending on when and/or how much they would like the accrued in-game rewards to be withdrawn/reset.
Instructions:
1. Head to the “Reward” tab from the CyBall Web App
2. Click “Request reward” and sign the message in your crypto wallet
3. Click “Refresh rewards list” to view a log of your requests. New requests will have an “In-Process” status (please allow a few seconds for the log status to be update)

When will my request be approved?
Starting from Tuesday at 1.00 PM UTC 08/03/2022.
In order to allow for users to get familiar with the Rewards claiming process, we will be reviewing and approving requests every day up until Tuesday 15/03/2022, at which point we will be reviewing and approving requests less frequently as the number of requests is also expected to be more scattered by then.
When and how can I claim my requested rewards?
Starting from Tuesday at 1.00 PM UTC 08/03/2022.
Instructions:
As soon as your request is approved and its status shows “Ready-Claim”:
1. Head to the “Reward” tab from the CyBall Web App
2. Click “Claim” under the “Action” column and confirm the transaction in your crypto wallet (requires enough BNB in wallet to cover gas costs, of approximately 0.0015 BNB per claim)

The boosted multipliers for each Class will still be the same as proposed previously.<figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/618/1*W33BDGoKBmh5si0agCkYoQ.png" /><figcaption>Class Earning Multipliers</figcaption></figure>Batteries per CyBloc per Win:<figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/943/1*iSfdHR1nb-o_qGGAOEOjMQ.png" /><figcaption>Base Case Example (team with 3 x Bronze CyBlocs as base case)</figcaption></figure><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/943/1*pHXu_HLBY4neDRJDAZI96w.png" /><figcaption>Boosted Example (team with 3 x Legendary CyBloc)</figcaption></figure><h4>Genesis Rewards ($CYB)</h4>As mentioned in our whitepaper and various AMAs, players will also have the chance to earn the CyBall’s governance token ($CYB) as rewards in the initial (“genesis”) period.Every day from day 15–54 (40 days in total) i.e. right after the date of the first $CBT claim, 145,000 $CYB will also be calculated and given out as Genesis Rewards.For each user, the $CYB rewards will be calculated in the same ratio that $CBT is earned. For example, if user A earns 1000 CBT a day, and there is 1,000,000 CBT earned by all players on that day, then user A has earned 0.1% of all CBT on that day and thus will also be eligible for 0.1% of the 145,000 CYB rewards, or 145 CYB.Based on the above mechanics, $CYB rewards will not only be distributed to lenders/owners, but also any borrowers on CyLoans Markets assuming the rewards split is higher than 0%. For example, if there is a 20:80 split between lender and borrower, the lender would earn 29 CYB and the borrower would earn 116 CYB.These Genesis Rewards will be claimable upon the release (TGE) of the governance token and may be subject to a vesting/locking schedule which will be announced closer to TGE. We will update our rewards dashboard to reflect the eligible amounts for each user.P/s: There might also be other types of Genesis Rewards in $CYB apart from the above plans 👀.<h3>🌎Future of Play-to-Earn Economy</h3>As the game and ecosystem grow, so too will our play-to-earn economy. We anticipate that the system as is with no modifications, will run for 20 seasons, which will be roughly one month each. As seasons go by, we will gradually phase in governance token rewards and lower utility token rewards.After 20 seasons have elapsed, our utility token, $CBT, will no longer be an inflationary token. Earnings will then be only based on the amount of CBT that is being consumed (through in-game purchases, or mentoring), as well as the governance token, $CYB. Further, newly mentored CyBlocs are expected to have more potential to earn bonuses in upcoming seasons than old CyBlocs.There are also tentative plans for both our utility and governance tokens which include being a gaming chain token (similar to RON but with existing tokens), a gaming launchpad — where users can earn tokens for new games in the CyBall metaverse, as well as a myriad of other ecosystem use cases.CyBall is intended to be a first of many projects within the CyBloc metaverse, and all extensions from here will utilize both $CBT and $CYB.<h3>📌Ecosystem, Economic and Development Updates</h3><h4>⚡Energy</h4>There will be 60 energy per day (down from 100), resetting at 00:00 UTC time. At this stage, all players will have the same energy per day, regardless of how many CyBlocs they hold in their team. We may update the energy mechanics to be more dynamics in a later patch.<h4>🎓Mentoring</h4><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*4irbZnT2fuBX9adl52njZw.png" /></figure>Mentoring will go live 3 weeks after game launch (1 week after first $CBT rewards claim).After carefully considering the results of our mentoring simulations against our strict criteria to maintain economic sustainability, we have also decided to update the mentoring costs and RNG chances.<h4>Mentoring Costs</h4>During the first 5 days of mentoring going live, there will be no 5-day cooldown to mentor. This is the Genesis Mentoring period. (Note: CyPods will still need to stay incubated for 5 days before they could be opened.)The fees for the Genesis Mentoring period will be as follows:<figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/932/1*kANTLhWzWih3Q4nUP6KEew.png" /><figcaption>Genesis Mentoring (first 5 days of mentoring going live)</figcaption></figure>After the first 5 days of mentoring going live, we will officially enter Season 1 Mentoring period, where there will be a 5-day cooldown to mentor again using the same CyBloc. The fees for Season 1 Mentoring will be as follows:<figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/931/1*o29-jeGCJkfSVty7dVVrjw.png" /><figcaption>Season 1 Mentoring (after first 5 days of mentoring going live)</figcaption></figure>In cases of dual mentoring, we will take the average cost of each mentor’s count. For example, if the first mentor has never mentored (Mentoring Count 1), and the second mentor has mentored once before (Mentoring Count 2), the cost will be:<blockquote>½*(500 + 3000) CBT + ½*(100 + 100) BUSD = 1750 CBT + 100 BUSD</blockquote>Once the governance token ($CYB) is released (which may be in Season 1), we will replace BUSD fee with the governance token ($CYB) in the mentoring costs. The BUSD collected from mentoring will go into the treasury and will be later used as rewards for CyBall’s users.<h4>Mentoring Passdown Chances</h4>Both Classes and Traits RNG % have been revised to ensure that future CyBloc distribution will not stray too far away from the Genesis distribution. With that in mind, the latest generation of CyBlocs obtained from mentoring (i.e. the youngest CyBlocs) will typically enjoy the highest rewards earned from CyBall game.Classes<figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/944/1*6yJIX5FjzN5Bu0DR8LfsjA.png" /><figcaption>Single Mentor or Two Mentors of different Classes (the higher Class will determine the RNG %)</figcaption></figure><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/944/1*FiuC_8Xh2JFqnsGxsYdswA.png" /><figcaption>Boosted Mentor (Two mentors of the same Class)</figcaption></figure>Traits<figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/474/1*VRXB2WGPs6qgRcvAzKVqsQ.png" /><figcaption>Single Mentor</figcaption></figure><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/471/1*i9OhRY8aciwk507CQaNKtw.png" /><figcaption>Dual Mentors</figcaption></figure><h4>🤝CyLoans</h4><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/0*DeJORT9UHK0lmoEK" /></figure>CyLoans v1 will be live at launch time.

However, there is nothing preventing a lender (e.g. a guild) from creating sub-accounts for borrowers/scholars then process the payout manually just like the typical guild-scholarship scheme in other blockchain games.<h4>♣️Tactic Cards and Traits</h4>There will be no tactic card and trait changes from the alpha version of the game.

Head to https://signup.cyball.com/
Connect your personal crypto wallet. Make sure you are on Binance Smart Chain (now called BNB Chain)
Enter your preferred login email address and password
Click “Sign Up” and sign the confirmation message in your wallet
Check your mailbox and verify your email address (there might be a slight delay for the verification email to arrive)

Game Download

There will be several links (direct and back-up links) to download the game from the “DOWNLOAD” button on our homepage, which will be made active at launch time (2.22 PM UTC).
We will also be sharing back-up (mirror) links in our Discord.
💰Rewards

$CBT Rewards
The first CBT Rewards claim will be 2 weeks (14 days) after game launch, and then weekly (7 days) thereafter.
Liquidity will be added onto PancakeSwap to kick start the CBT-BUSD pool for trading prior to first rewards claim time. The initial pegging will be 10 CBT to 1 BUSD or $0.1 per CBT.
Following the Testnet phase and our own simulations, the team has decided to update the Batteries (CBT) per CyBloc per Win. The boosted multipliers for each Class will still be the same as proposed previously.
Class Earning Multipliers
Batteries per CyBloc per Win:
Base Case Example (team with 3 x Bronze CyBlocs as base case)Boosted Example (team with 3 x Legendary CyBloc)
Genesis Rewards ($CYB)
As mentioned in our whitepaper and various AMAs, players will also have the chance to earn the CyBall’s governance token ($CYB) as rewards in the initial (“genesis”) period.
Every day from day 15–54 (40 days in total) i.e. right after the date of the first $CBT claim, 145,000 $CYB will also be calculated and given out as Genesis Rewards.
For each user, the $CYB rewards will be calculated in the same ratio that $CBT is earned. For example, if user A earns 1000 CBT a day, and there is 1,000,000 CBT earned by all players on that day, then user A has earned 0.1% of all CBT on that day and thus will also be eligible for 0.1% of the 145,000 CYB rewards, or 145 CYB.
Based on the above mechanics, $CYB rewards will not only be distributed to lenders/owners, but also any borrowers on CyLoans Markets assuming the rewards split is higher than 0%. For example, if there is a 20:80 split between lender and borrower, the lender would earn 29 CYB and the borrower would earn 116 CYB.
These Genesis Rewards will be claimable upon the release (TGE) of the governance token and may be subject to a vesting/locking schedule which will be announced closer to TGE. We will update our rewards dashboard to reflect the eligible amounts for each user.
P/s: There might also be other types of Genesis Rewards in $CYB apart from the above plans 👀.
🌎Future of Play-to-Earn Economy
As the game and ecosystem grow, so too will our play-to-earn economy. We anticipate that the system as is with no modifications, will run for 20 seasons, which will be roughly one month each. As seasons go by, we will gradually phase in governance token rewards and lower utility token rewards.
After 20 seasons have elapsed, our utility token, $CBT, will no longer be an inflationary token.

CyBall is intended to be a first of many projects within the CyBloc metaverse, and all extensions from here will utilize both $CBT and $CYB.
📌Ecosystem, Economic and Development Updates
⚡Energy
There will be 60 energy per day (down from 100), resetting at 00:00 UTC time. At this stage, all players will have the same energy per day, regardless of how many CyBlocs they hold in their team. We may update the energy mechanics to be more dynamics in a later patch.
🎓Mentoring

Mentoring will go live 3 weeks after game launch (1 week after first $CBT rewards claim).
After carefully considering the results of our mentoring simulations against our strict criteria to maintain economic sustainability, we have also decided to update the mentoring costs and RNG chances.
Mentoring Costs
During the first 5 days of mentoring going live, there will be no 5-day cooldown to mentor. This is the Genesis Mentoring period.
(Note: CyPods will still need to stay incubated for 5 days before they could be opened.)
The fees for the Genesis Mentoring period will be as follows:
Genesis Mentoring (first 5 days of mentoring going live)
After the first 5 days of mentoring going live, we will officially enter Season 1 Mentoring period, where there will be a 5-day cooldown to mentor again using the same CyBloc. The fees for Season 1 Mentoring will be as follows:
Season 1 Mentoring (after first 5 days of mentoring going live)
In cases of dual mentoring, we will take the average cost of each mentor’s count. For example, if the first mentor has never mentored (Mentoring Count 1), and the second mentor has mentored once before (Mentoring Count 2), the cost will be:
½*(500 + 3000) CBT + ½*(100 + 100) BUSD = 1750 CBT + 100 BUSD
Once the governance token ($CYB) is released (which may be in Season 1), we will replace BUSD fee with the governance token ($CYB) in the mentoring costs. The BUSD collected from mentoring will go into the treasury and will be later used as rewards for CyBall’s users.
Mentoring Passdown Chances
Both Classes and Traits RNG % have been revised to ensure that future CyBloc distribution will not stray too far away from the Genesis distribution. With that in mind, the latest generation of CyBlocs obtained from mentoring (i.e. the youngest CyBlocs) will typically enjoy the highest rewards earned from CyBall game.

🤝CyLoans

CyLoans v1 will be live at launch time. In v1:

Users will be able to lend and borrow CyBlocs via CyLoans Market, with whitelist and free-for-all schemes both available.
There is a 24h delay when canceling/recalling CyBlocs from CyLoans Market. This applies whether the CyBloc has been borrowed (on lease) or not (listed on CyLoans Market but not on lease).
CyBlocs’ levels will be reset upon every transfer, including in and out of CyLoans Market.
During v1, in order to mentor, CyBlocs will first need to be removed from CyLoans Market. CyLoans v2 may be live by the time mentoring is live however there will still be a migration event (more info below).

CyLoans v2 is already in its final phase of testing, in which:

Users will be able to mentor without removing or recalling CyBlocs from CyLoans Market.
Users will be able to create “Clubs” to streamline the whitelist process for CyLoans.
Users may be able to keep CyBlocs’ progression (levels and skills) for a small fee (TBD, may not be available at the start of v2).
Note that when v2 goes live, users will need to migrate CyBlocs from CyLoans v1 over to v2 in order to enjoy the extra features.

CyLoans v1 instructions can be found within our docs: https://docs.cyball.com/ecosystem/cyloans/cyloans-instructions. A detailed video will be released ASAP post-launch to demonstrate the whole process.
We recommend that scholars create their own personal wallets in order to utilize the CyLoans’ automated rewards sharing system. However, there is nothing preventing a lender (e.g. a guild) from creating sub-accounts for borrowers/scholars then process the payout manually just like the typical guild-scholarship scheme in other blockchain games.
♣️Tactic Cards and Traits
There will be no tactic card and trait changes from the alpha version of the game. You can find a list of traits and tactic cards in our whitepaper.
However, as season 1 starts, 2 weeks from launch, we may alter/add in new tactic cards and traits to rebalance the game.

🤖CyBall Reborn

As an Alpha version, the current CyBall game is mostly optimised for Windows, although Android is also playable for some users.
CyBall Reborn will be a remastered version of CyBall, expected to be released late March 2022. Along with new and improved UI and animations, CyBall Reborn will also be compatible with iOS and macOS. We anticipate that all popular platforms which CyBall Reborn will be supporting will have similar functionality once CyBall Reborn is released.

Can I earn rewards during the testing phase of CyBall Alpha?
Yes and no. There will be no Play-to-Earn rewards, on a match by match basis, during the testing period of this launch. However, participants will all have the opportunity to earn:

Genesis Rewards, in the form of $CYB, which are reserved for our early supporters.
Bounties which are $CYB and/or $USDT rewards, as part of the Bug Bounty Program, should you manage to discover any hidden bugs within the game and report these back to our team.

Final eligibility to receive rewards and amounts given out will be up to the discretion of our team upon evaluating testing activity, feedback and severity of any bugs.

Post-Submission
You will be able to check if you have been selected in our Discord. If you have been selected, you will be granted a “Alpha Pass” role and will be able to access a private category in Discord named “Alpha Pass”.
Within this private category and its channels, you will be given a set of instructions on how to download the game and participate in the Bug Bounty Program. You will also be invited to provide feedback and your evaluation of the game in “discussion-and-feedback”, with which the team will use to evaluate for further game updates, and also to consider genesis rewards.

CyBall Bug Bounty Program
The Bug Bounty Program will be open to everyone who has access to the Alpha Version of CyBall. If you identify a bug, submit it using the form in the pinned post within the Alpha Pass announcement channel and bug bounty channel using our template for the team to evaluate. Suitable rewards will be given out depending on the severity of the bug.
How long will the testing phase of CyBall Alpha and Bug Bounty Program run for?
The testing phase and Bug Bounty Program will run from Now until Jan 29, 2022 and may be extended if needed.
Why Alpha Launch? Why not “test in prod”?
The CyBall Alpha Launch will be a first look and feel for what the CyBall game will entail, with the intention of inviting the community within our development process as we continue to build and fine tune CyBall in the pursuit of excellence.
We look forward to overcoming the issues and challenges that we will face. Given the complexity of the Web 3.0 and blockchain gameing era, it is essential that CyBall is built upon a stable foundation; for us to achieve this, this we must seek out the weakest chinks within our armour and rectify them immediately. We invite our extended community to join us on this journey.
By the end of this testing phase, or so called “soft launch”, and squashing any bugs that were found in the game, we will be able to progress into the next phase i.e. into our full public launch.
