What to expect from Cradle Games
Last updated
In this section of the Whitepaper we will be taking a look at the various points on the roadmap and explain their significance and reason behind them so that each $CRADLE holder or entity that wishes to become one can fully understand our plans for the project.
However, we recognize that plans and reality often diverge, as challenges and unexpected obstacles arise along the way. While the journey may not always follow a straight path, we are committed to facing these challenges head-on and fighting to bring our vision to life. Our dedication to $CRADLE and its ecosystem is unwavering, and together with our community, we will strive to turn our plans into reality.
Our goal for the token pre-sale is to raise around $300,000 to support ongoing development for both the game and streaming platform. The primary focus, however, is to accelerate the growth of the Streamble platform. The token relaunch will happen immediately after the pre-sale, followed by the Streamble launch and, subsequently, the game release
