Tamagotchi pets meets online race gambling -- sign me up!
I’ve been watching this project for a while and decided to jump in a few months back. This ZED racehorse was one of my first NFT purchases. This project is backed by Racecar so we can expect it will be around for a while.
GambleFi NFTs make for a practical use case to me and (I think) has great potential with the general relaxing of gambling rules and regulations. I could see a future where friends meet up and race each other’s horses over a projector at a party for a little bit of fun and entertainment.
I really like all the cyber art on the zed run platform and enjoyed participating in a few races, even though I did not win any of them!! It’s also nice knowing no animals are used or hurt in this form of betting versus IRL.
I did a deep dive into what makes a good horse a good horse for my budget and these were the properties I ended up with.
I like how the blockchain stores the ‘genetic’ heritage data so you can see the races and genetics of your horse’s parents. There has since been an update on the platform to improve the classification of these horses but I believe mine was considered an L2, which is the second-highest class.

starting my upgrade!! Looks like I will need to run 10 Races to get my new ranking so for now, I’m in a D class.
Next, I need to buy a female horse and start Breeding to build out my stable of horses. I see one of the new updates involves “Breeding decay” which sets limits to how many times you can Breed a horse.
Let the races begin!
