First off, we want to thank each one of you for being an integral part of our early success thus far. Here at DinoX, we have been incredibly humbled by the support we have received and we are so proud of the community that is growing around our platform.
With your help, we’ve been able to accomplish so much in such a short time! Let’s take a look back before we look forward.
April 22, 2021 — We announced the reshaping of DinoX. We decided on this day to shift from an NFT project to a DinoX ecosystem with NFT collectibles, games, and more. We introduced DNX, DNXC, and DNXI this day and never looked back.
May 11, 2021 — We received seed funding from DAO Maker, Metrix.Capital, and Magnus Capital. This provided DinoX with a huge boost of industry expertise and helped propel us onward.
May 21, 2021 — We announced our first project update. This was our first announcement that described the DinoX Ecosystem, including, but not limited to, dino battles, idle tournaments, DNX training, wild hunt, and of course, breeding.
June 4, 2021 — We joined forces with Polygon. We prepared ourselves for stampede-like growth and teamed up with Ethereum’s number one scaling solution, Polygon. This allowed us to be highly scalable and gave us an efficient infrastructure to reduce the high fees that other games were facing.
June 14, 2021 — We introduced DINOX World, an idle management game with battles, strategic preparations, and full in-game economics. In DINOX World, your dinosaurs come to life. An entire world of possibilities enabled by blockchain and NFTs. We introduced the DINOX World core island and outlined the various aspects of the dinosaur civilization.
June 16, 2021 — We partnered with GameStarter! The new standard for indie game funding with an NFT-based crowdfunding platform and marketplace. Throughout this partnership, the world of collectible, tradable, and playable dinosaur NFTs gained access to the Gamestarter marketplace.
July 15, 2021 — We partnered with Ludena Protocol. A gamified social platform for worldwide gamers. Ludena protocol has offered to co-host events for gamers and the blockchain community in Korea. As we get closer to the launch of the DinoX game, we cannot wait to share these events and the amazing prizes and rewards lined out.
July 16, 2021 — We closed an oversubscribed private round, bringing on huge names like Raptor Capital, Peech Capital, Interchain Ventures, Lupa X Capital, and x21. We were thrilled to have partnered with some of the very best.
July 24, 2021 — We launched our first Pre-IDO on LaunchX, on that same day we launched our initial exchange offering with Gate and launched our DAO Maker Strong Holder Offering as well.
July 28, 2021 — We listed on Gate Exchange, Uniswap, and Pancakeswap. The total volume traded on launch date was nearly $40,000,000. To say we were blown away was an understatement.
August 3, 2021 — We launched the DinoX Portal, the hub for all things DinoX.The portal is already the place to stake and participate in lotteries, with much more coming soon (later in the article, so no spoilers here!).
August 5, 2021 — We opened Gen 0 staking, officially partnered with Quickswap, and showcased our first Gen 1 dinosaur, the Quicksaurus.
Ok… Ok... let’s hurry along, we want to get to the updates coming!
August 8, 2021 — We officially partnered with DeRace.
August 9, 2021 — We integrated ChainLink VRF.
August 17, 2021 — We launched our first DinoX lottery. Oh, and all 8,000 staking spots were taken in our Gen0 pool.

August 20, 2021 — We partnered with DinoSwap for cross-chain liquidity.
August 31, 2021 — We launched the DINOX World Alpha staking pool.
September 10, 2021 — We upgraded the DinoX portal.
September 22, 2021 — The Hatching Event enabled colored dino eggs and the ability to hatch your eggs to discover which dinosaurs were hiding inside.
September 25, 2021 — Gen 1 Staking Pool went live.
September 27, 2021 — All Gen 1 eggs claimed in less than 48 hours!
October 4, 2021 — The DinoX World Alpha gameplay was released!
October 6, 2021 — We surpassed 100,000 followers on Twitter!
That just about gets us caught up to now! Our team has been hard at work building what is coming next and we are thrilled to share it with you all.
Here is a look at our updated roadmap:
Q4 of 2021
Gen 1 Staking went live at the end of last quarter and in less than 48 hours all the eggs were claimed! Truly remarkable! With these NFTs being the core to everything in DinoX, we look forward to distributing the Gen 1 eggs and enabling Gen 2 staking at the end of Q4.
This quarter we will be laying the groundwork for the DinoX governance platform. This is a very important step for the community as it will allow you to have a say in how the DinoX ecosystem is developed and built. Along with governance, we will enable the breeding of your dinosaur NFTs. We are still ironing out all the details of governance and breeding, and plan to have a dedicated post on this soon, so be sure to keep an eye out.
Also in Q4, we will launch our in-house marketplace where one can purchase DNX and DNXI items with our currency DNXC as well as purchase various DinoX merchandise with fiat currencies. We’ll have a special event in line with the launch of this marketplace as well. Along with that, an updated DinoX API v1.5 will host features that assist in the ease of access to items and the handling of the first meta transactions on our side, lowering fees on the user’s side. In later updates in Q1 of 2022, it will become a full P2P marketplace (more on that below).
To finish off Q4 of 2021, we will be launching DINOX World beta. This will be arguably the biggest event for DinoX in 2021 and we are incredibly excited for everyone to get a chance to play and explore the world we have been building. We plan to have some special rewards for those who participate so you won’t want to miss this!
Lastly, we are currently in discussions with various EX’s for listing DNXC and we are on track to have these partnerships live before the end of the year. This should bring even more people to the DinoX ecosystem which will be exciting for all.
Q1 of 2022
Some Giganotosaurus-size things are on the way at the beginning of 2022! There will be big marketplace upgrades that will enable P2P trading. Users will be able to buy and sell their own DNX and DNXI on our marketplace. Also, we’ll have some governance updates as well, making the process smoother and with more ways to get the community involved.
Gen 2 eggs will be delivered in Q1 as well as the creation of Gen 3 and 4. We will open staking for Gen 3 this quarter and, depending on the timing, Gen 4 staking could potentially make an appearance, or at the beginning of Q2. We will have dedicated documentation about each of the staking pools as we get closer to their launch dates.
With a new year comes the launch of DINOX World! Pending feedback from the open beta will come the full Launch of DINOX World. Leading up to this we plan to have some important and exciting events for the community. Be sure to keep an eye on our social channels as we will begin to share details on this in the coming months.
“When CEX!?”, “When exchange??” With the launch of DINOX World, we plan to list DNXC on various exchanges. That’s all we will say for now…
We hope you’ve enjoyed our recap of DinoX’s major milestones and the look into the future with our updated roadmap! Things are about to get really exciting with many things happening in the next few weeks leading up to DINOX World Alpha and all the massive plans we have afterward!
