I had the pleasure of chatting with Chris Cashwell, the developer behind the NFT trading card game Mythereum, which launched on February 5, 2018.
Mythereum did a lot of things right but the thing that I believe made it groundbreaking was the innovative ability for users to take NFTs from another project (in this case CryptoKitties) and forge a brand new NFT (called a Mythicat) within Mythereum to use in gameplay.
To be clear - there were games on Bitcoin that pulled characters from other games and created unique characters within those games. But they weren't using the actual NFT. The developers were just borrowing the character's name and attributes to create a new character.
Mythereum and its Mythicats were the first to use the actual NFT and forge a brand new NFT.
Quite the revolutionary idea that developers are only now beginning to incorporate into their projects.
