Ebisu's Bay Introduces Sweeping Platform Changes to Boost FRTN Utility
Revamping Game Mechanics to Increase Demand for FRTN and Improve Rewards Balance
Key Takeaways
Boosting Farms with Troops: Troops are now essential to enhance farm yields.
Reward Caps Linked to Mitama: Daily FRTN rewards are capped based on Mitama level.
Trade-In Limits for Battle Cards: Limits on card trade-ins to prevent reward inflation.
Revised Koban Farming: Transition to quest-based rewards over daily check-ins.
Ebisu’s Bay, the GameFi platform that launched with the FRTN token and the popular Ryoshi Dynasties game, is set to implement major changes aimed at reinforcing FRTN's utility and rebalancing rewards. With these updates, Ebisu’s Bay hopes to revitalize interest in FRTN and strengthen the platform’s GameFi ecosystem.
Using Troops to Boost Farms
The new farm boost system requires troops earned through staking FRTN, rather than relying solely on traditional LP yield farming. Each troop now grants 30 seconds of boosted APR on yield farms, with rates tied to a user’s Mitama level. To achieve top APRs of over 300%, users will need substantial FRTN commitment in vaults and must actively use their troops. This change encourages more sustained engagement with the platform’s ecosystem.
Capped Daily Rewards Based on Mitama
A daily cap on FRTN rewards is now in place, proportional to a user's Mitama level, which will prevent disproportionate rewards while still favoring the platform’s most invested users. Both Farm Boosting and NFT Listing rewards will now fall under this cap, rewarding those with higher Mitama levels without overwhelming the reward pool.
Battle Card Trade-In Limits
The Ryoshi troops, an essential in-game resource, now have double utility: both in Ryoshi Dynasties and farm boosting. Recognizing the increased demand, Ebisu’s Bay has restricted trade-ins to curb excess troop generation. Trade-in limits will now scale with a user’s Mitama level, with a set fee of 100 FRTN per set traded. As demand for troops rises, further adjustments to trade-in fees may be made to maintain balance and support FRTN’s value.
Koban Farming Changes
The popular Koban currency, traditionally earned via daily check-ins, will transition to a quest-based system to curb abuse and discourage multi-account farming. Koban will now be earned through tasks such as using the DEX, purchasing NFTs, and harvesting farms, each yielding loot boxes containing Koban, NFTs, or other rewards. This overhaul is still in progress, but a temporary measure requires players to buy Koban from Rio on the Ryoshi map. Daily check-ins will now award XP rather than Koban.
Conclusion
These adjustments mark Ebisu’s Bay’s commitment to ensuring fair and valuable rewards for FRTN holders. Through a heightened emphasis on Mitama levels, capped rewards, and restructured Koban acquisition, the platform aims to drive demand for FRTN. As the team prepares for further enhancements like the Moggy Money Market, Ebisu’s Bay anticipates a promising future for FRTN and the wider community.
"FRTN Favors the Brave" rings true as these changes set the stage for a revitalized GameFi experience on Ebisu’s Bay.
