After the Karrat Crypto Foundation — linked to the battle royale game My Pet Hooligan — announced in March that it would collaborate with the Arbitrum Foundation to launch a gaming-focused chain called Studio Chain, aimed at fostering Web3-native capabilities in entertainment and video games, it seems updates are finally on the horizon. The team recently posted an exciting tweet, saying: “Year 1… Building, Year 2… Delivery. The journey has just begun.”

Karrat Crypto Foundation Is Back Again With New Excitement. Is it worth it?

Founded with the vision to empower creators and communities, Karrat Protocol achieved notable success with the early access launch of My Pet Hooligan in 2023. The game has reportedly surpassed 500,000 downloads on the Epic Games Store and is also listed as early access on Xbox and Steam. Building on this momentum, the team announced a collaboration with Arbitrum to launch Studio Chain, a gaming-focused blockchain that will serve as the host for My Pet Hooligan.

“The collaboration places the KARRAT token at the forefront of the chain and makes it the flagship game of the budding ecosystem,” said Luke Paglia, co-founder and COO of AMGI Studios, also saying that “interoperability will help extend the chain’s headline game to Xbox game consoles and additional PC gaming launchpads in the coming months.”

Despite their many promises and updates, the tweet’s meaning is still unclear. My Pet Hooligan has lost most of its player base and is still in early access, unreleased on most platforms. This may be a factor in why it’s hard for the community to get excited again, despite the project team’s big ambitions.

Looking at the current KARRAT price action, since launch, it has gone through a tough patch and clearly doesn’t reflect on the team’s ambition for the project, as they have to compete with giants in crypto gaming chains like Immutable (IMX) and Ronin as well as other solely game cryptos like SAND and MANA.

GameFi is still falling behind in the crypto market due to the generally low quality of games and a loss of trust in this sector. This decline began after reaching its peak in 2021, when many original GameFi coins, such as Gala and Sandbox, lost over 90% of their value.

Is FantasyPepe a Better Gaming Option to Buy Than Karrat?

Despite GameFi lagging behind in momentum, with exceptions like Karrat Crypto, new gaming coins continue to emerge and stand out by leveraging unique concepts. One example is FantasyPepe.

Far from being just another meme coin, FantasyPepe positions itself as a rising betting platform that reimagines the way users interact with sports betting. What sets it apart is its ability to tap into three of the hottest narratives in Web3 today: AI, gaming, and memes. This fusion gives FantasyPepe an edge in a crowded space, offering a fresh take on both utility and culture within the crypto ecosystem.

It offers AI-generated football matches that include 60 seconds of action-packed, text-based commentary generated by AI models. ChatGPT and DeepSeek create radio-style commentary via text, while Grok referees to ensure fairness.

Users predict the match winner, total goals, correct score, and other popular football markets. Successful calls receive prediction rewards in the project’s native $FEPE meme coin. Payouts are based on the stake and respective odds (determined by market forces like Polymarket), with up to 1,440 AI-hosted fantasy sports games daily.

$FEPE tokens sit at the heart of the Fantasy Pepe ecosystem. Users need $FEPE to predict fantasy football results, and tokens give holders staking and governance rights.

The Fantasy Pepe staking system comes with dynamic rewards. Early adopters receive higher rewards, with staking APY of up to 1222%. The presale price begins at $0.0003 per token and gradually increases as demand surges. The current amount raised is $243k out of $250k before the next price raise.
