Vameon Unleashes dEmpire of Vampire: A Cutting-Edge PvP Mobile Web3 Game Poised to Redefine GameFi
The GameFi sector has faced significant challenges in recent years. Initially propelled by the hype surrounding NFTs and Play-to-Earn (P2E) mechanics, the industry has since experienced a downturn, with approximately 93% of GameFi projects having failed and an average project lifespan of only four months. These failures have been attributed to short-term thinking, unsustainable economic models, and rushed product releases that did not prioritize gameplay quality or user experience.
'We've observed how GameFi struggled because it attempted to forcibly combine two incompatible value systems: the pleasure of gaming and financial gain,' said Alex, cofounder of Vameon. 'Many P2E projects failed because they prioritized earning over gameplay. With dEmpire of Vampire, we aim to shift this paradigm by creating a game that people want to play for enjoyment first, and then offering sustainable and optional Web3 opportunities.'
dEmpire of Vampire: A New Era of Sustainable GameFi
Vameon enters this market not as a new entrant, but as a developer keenly aware of these pitfalls. dEmpire of Vampire, originally launched in 2023, adopted a phased development approach that included the introduction of its $VON token in December 2024. The game is now fully available on both the App Store and Google Play. This release is designed to set a new precedent in GameFi, focusing on longevity and utility, alongside accessible and engaging gameplay across both Web2 and Web3 platforms. The development and launch of dEmpire of Vampire have been proudly supported by BNB Chain, further solidifying its position within the Web3 ecosystem.
A core component of dEmpire of Vampire is its approach to Web3 integration. Unlike earlier GameFi projects that required users to interact directly with blockchain technology, Vameon has made these features optional. This includes the use of a free NFT character associated with each account, allowing players to experience digital ownership without upfront costs or the need for specialized knowledge. This strategy aligns with broader trends such as 'invisible wallets' that simplify Web3 user experiences.
The game's economic model also diverges from its predecessors. Players earn the native $VON token through in-game achievements, with anti-inflationary measures in place to preserve token value. These include a dual-budget reserve and a structured buyback mechanism designed to provide stability during periods of high reward redemptions. Additionally, revenue from traditional in-app purchases, such as premium character packs, supports the Play-to-Earn economy, establishing a hybrid monetization model that aims to balance sustainability with engagement.
This approach seeks to mitigate the issues that led to the failure of many earlier GameFi projects, where token economies often collapsed due to speculative overreach and insufficient economic safeguards. According to recent industry reports, while overall investment in GameFi dropped by 71% in Q1 2025 compared to Q4 2024, the number of deals increased by 35%, and daily unique active wallets surpassed 7 million in January 2025-a 386% year-over-year rise. These figures suggest that while the market is contracting in terms of project volume, user engagement remains robust for high-quality offerings.
dEmpire of Vampire features a dark fantasy setting, optimized performance for a broad range of mobile devices, and gameplay that allows players to progress through gothic-themed challenges. The design targets both Web3 users and the broader Web2 gaming audience by reducing the complexity often associated with blockchain-based games. The game also incorporates exciting PvP mechanics, offering players a competitive and engaging experience.
Vameon has indicated that the game is part of a larger strategic roadmap. Future updates planned through Q2 2025 include an in-game marketplace, expanded utility for the $VON token, and additional game content. This roadmap is intended to support long-term player retention and further integrate economic mechanisms that reinforce stability and value.
The development of dEmpire of Vampire reflects a shift in the GameFi sector toward more measured and sustainable project design. As the market evolves, projects that can demonstrate tangible value, user-centric design, and robust economic structures are expected to play a central role in the sector's maturation.

Cebu Air Just Pulled Off the Biggest Surprise Profit in Over a Decade
Cebu Air (CEBUF) just posted its strongest quarter in over a decadethanks to a rare combination of rising travel demand and a surprise engine windfall. The Philippine low-cost carrier reported 8.51 billion pesos ($148 million) in Q2 net income, more than six times higher than the same period last year. A major contributor? A 4.8 billion peso boost from four free Pratt & Whitney engines booked as other income in June. That one-off helped deliver a record profit dating back to at least 2010and investors took notice. CEB shares jumped as much as 4.4% in Manila on Wednesday, outpacing the broader index. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 7 Warning Signs with CEBUF. But this wasn't just a one-time story. Cebu flew 7 million passengers last quarter, up 16% year-over-year, powered by a 23% jump in international traffic and a 14% lift in domestic. That momentum came despite ongoing disruptions from RTX Corp.'s Pratt & Whitney GTF engines, which are undergoing a global inspection cycle due to flawed components. While that grounding has sidelined parts of Cebu's fleet, the strong rebound in traveland management's ability to negotiate engine compensationsuggest the airline could be navigating the headwinds better than most. Maybank analysts seem to think so. In a June note, they named Cebu their top tourism pick in the Philippines, pointing to fleet expansion, rising passenger volumes, and the tailwind of infrastructure upgrades across the country. With international traffic roaring back and engine issues partly cushioned by manufacturer support, Cebu Air might be one of the rare airline stocks positioned to benefit on both the operational and financial front.

A 15-year old made millions from a card game he invented at age 7. He just sold it to a major toy company
PlayMonster games has bought Taco vs. Burrito for an undisclosed amount. The game was invented by a 7-year old, who, with his parents' help, has steer it to over 1.5 million sold units. Creator Alex Butler says, despite its success, 'It was never something that I've been attached to or anything.' Alex Butler was just seven years old when he made his first million dollars. A game he had invented, called Taco vs Burrito, had made it to Amazon—and by the end of 2018, it had rung up sales of about $1.1 million. Now, after overseeing the game's empire with his parents, Butler has sold the rights to the game to PlayMonster, whose other well-known products include Spirograph, Farkle, and Yeti in my Spaghetti. Terms of the deal were not announced, but Taco vs. Burrito (which retails for $20 on Amazon) has sold 1.5 million copies life to date. The game also has two expansion packs. PlayMonster says it will continue to expand the game and a version in a collector's tin is coming later this year. Butler, who is now 15, says he's not especially sad to see his creation move on. It was, he says, never really something he wanted to keep doing for the rest of his life. 'It was never something that I've been attached to or anything,' he told The Seattle Times. 'It's not super important to me. I just kind of wanted to get the most money out of it.' Alex's mother is an entrepreneur herself, so when her son came up with the idea after playing card games like Exploding Kittens, she encouraged him. The family would walk to the neighborhood coffee shop/hangout to test the prototype, which would lead to Alex coming up with a new take on the rules. To cover production costs, he mother launched an online fundraiser, which brought in $25,000. Alex's parents set up a holding company for the game (of which Alex was the majority owner), found a manufacturer, and put the game on Amazon. It quickly took off and never slowed down. While there have been buyout offers in the past, the family said they never felt right. When they began speaking with PlayMonster, things did. Don't expect another game anytime soon from Alex, though. His interests have shifted to music production, sports, and video games, he says.

China's Baby Benefits Are Tiny. That Isn't the Point
No longer the most populous nation and confronted with projections that its citizenry will dwindle significantly in a couple of generations, China is trying something new. The message is more telling than the substance. Beijing announced last week it will subsidize households to have children. Babies born after Jan. 1 this year will receive 3,600 yuan ($500) annually until age three. While not a large amount, it represents a further step away from rules imposed in the 1970s that constrained fertility. There's much to be said for starting small and scaling up. It's not hard to see the money being increased — and extended to all children.
