Points and Values: Core Elements of the UTC Ecosystem
The UTC ecosystem is built upon a foundation of points and values that drive player engagement, reward participation, and encourage a vibrant gaming community. Each element plays a crucial role in the gaming experience, offering unique benefits and functionalities within the platform.
GTC (Game Trading Credits):
GTC represents the balance each player has at their disposal within the UTC platform. These credits are integral to the game's economy, allowing players to cash out their earnings. However, GTCs exist solely within the UTC platform and are not exchangeable for external currencies or assets. Their primary function is to facilitate the conversion of in-game success into real-world value, providing a tangible reward for player achievements.
Pip Points:
Pip Points are a measure of a player's rank and progression within the game. As players participate in matches and tournaments, they earn Pip Points, which contribute to their overall ranking. The ranking system is tiered, with each rank requiring a certain number of Pip Points to achieve. This system encourages continuous play and skill development, as players strive to ascend through the ranks and unlock new levels of competition and reward. For more detailed information about Pip Points and how they integrate with the game's dynamics, refer to the section about Matchmaking.
$VUTC (Virtual UTC): $VUTC is a virtual currency generated through gameplay, where a portion of the prize at stake in each match is converted into $VUTC. Unlike GTC, $VUTC is not transferable outside the platform. However, it serves as a versatile in-game currency that players can use to purchase various assets and enhancements, including premium passes, NFT trading rooms, boosts to accelerate Pip Points acquisition, character skins, and more. $VUTC incentivizes players to engage deeply with the game's content and economy. For further details on how $VUTC functions within the UTC ecosystem, please see the dedicated section on $VUTC.
Trading Rooms NFTs:
Trading Rooms NFTs stand as distinctive digital assets within the UTC ecosystem, symbolizing ownership over virtual spaces where special tournaments take place. Beyond their role as a community status symbol, these NFTs unlock a passive income stream for owners through a share of tournament fees. Activation and integration into the game's competitive framework require staking these NFTs in a Vault smart contract, thereby enabling their trading rooms for hosting events. For an in-depth exploration of how Trading Rooms NFTs are acquired using $UTC tokens and their significance within the game, please see the section dedicated to the specific use case of the $UTC token, related to the purchase of Trading Rooms via NFTs
Premium Passes:
Premium Passes in the UTC ecosystem are designed for players seeking a swift advancement or to bypass initial ranks, offering a significant promotion directly to the Ruby rank for a $500 investment. These passes not only elevate players' competitive standing by allowing access to higher-stakes matches but also enrich their game balance by $500, usable across the platform. This strategic advantage accelerates progression and unlocks various features, making the Premium Pass a key asset for enhancing the gaming experience from the start. For more detailed insights into how Premium Passes integrate with the matchmaking system and their impact on player progression, please refer to the last part of the Matchmaking section.
