Introducing pndm.org — the first SocialFi game studio. after 4.5 years of building consumer crypto apps, we found a new category that the space is craving: SocialFi x simulation game our first game, @infecteddotfun went viral: - 130K signups in 48 hours - 1.4M wallets played in Season 1 our second game, @addicteddotfun just hit 200K signups in 24 hours, launching soon on Solana. our thesis is simple: social games are the future of crypto. in web2 world, 70% of App Store revenue comes from silly mini games. and crypto will follow the same path. a significant portion of onchain revenue will be driven by casual social games that you play with your friends. we at @pndmdotorg are committed to launching new SocialFi games more than anyone else to dominate this category. we're launching $VIRUS — the flywheel that makes sure attention and value from all our games flow back to the player community. $VIRUS is now live on @believeapp CA: DdcvRiEs4k2fXbHqeJBS5jgGD93rj1wu6u8WTL4vmBLV

So many tier-1 VCs have been DMing us since we launched @infecteddotfun and we ignored them all. Just like Hyperliquid, the biggest crypto companies in 5 years will be 100% self-funded with tokens directly tied to their product and revenue. Building a strong community and having mechanisms to reward those early believers, is the future of startups. VCs are simply distractions to this. They demand a massive token allocation, then dump on the community the moment their vesting ends. Raising from VCs with a goal of buyout or IPO is a dead playbook. @pndmdotorg is 100% self-funded. We're not going to raise a single cent from VCs. $VIRUS is our only focus for capturing and increasing the value from our products. Nothing else. We're currently finalizing the first version of $VIRUS tokenomics (we’ll be iterating on different models to find the right fit), and we’ll publish it before launching @addicteddotfun so the connection between our games and the token is crystal clear. I know everyone wants us to launch Addicted asap, but great things take time. when it drops, it’s gonna blow your mind. We’re in this for the long run. If you believe in $VIRUS, stick with us. — Pandemic Labs

Update: we’re in audit rn, making sure everything is safe before launch. after @infecteddotfun blew up, we’ve learned the hard way, our strength virality brings players but also predators. in crypto, people will do literally anything to break your game for profit. this time, we’ll be ready to fight back. security and resilience is #1 priority. final fixes are in progress. once audit’s are done, we should be ready to launch.
