CROSS Token Public Sale Concludes with 92% Allocation Sold, Signaling Market Confidence in Web3 Gaming
ZUG, CH – 01/06/2025 – (SeaPRwire) – In a notable development that underscores growing confidence in decentralized gaming, the Opengame Foundation (OGF) has concluded the public token sale for its CROSS utility token, marking a pivotal chapter in its mission to democratize access to blockchain-powered gaming. The week-long sale, which began on May 15, 2025, was closely watched by both industry stakeholders and Web3 enthusiasts due to its unconventional approach centered on transparency, equity, and sustainable token economics.
The CROSS public sale set a rare precedent in the crypto space by offering tokens to the public at a fixed price of $0.10—the exact same rate as that provided to private investors, early contributors, and even internal stakeholders such as the founding team. This pricing model aimed to eliminate preferential treatment, a practice that has often undermined the trust of retail participants in token launches. Instead, OGF extended identical terms to all participants, thereby leveling the playing field and reinforcing its philosophy of fairness within the decentralized ecosystem.
A total of 96 million CROSS tokens were made available during the sale, representing 9.6% of the total supply of 1 billion tokens. The sale operated on a first-come, first-served basis, with strong interest from a broad array of investors. By the close of the offering period, approximately 92% of the token allocation had been sold, reflecting widespread support for the platform and its vision. The unsold 8% of tokens will not be retained or redistributed; instead, they are scheduled to be permanently burned. This deflationary move, aimed at protecting token value and ensuring long-term trust in the CROSS economy, highlights OGF’s strong commitment to supply integrity and market discipline.
Key figures from the CROSS ecosystem also weighed in on the significance of the token sale. Henry Chang, CEO of NEXUS and a central contributor to the CROSS platform, described the initiative as a “milestone experiment” in the evolution of blockchain funding. In a message posted to social platform X (formerly known as Twitter), Chang expressed gratitude to the global community that supported the sale:
“Another dot, placed. We’ve now completed an unprecedented experiment—offering the same price to private and public investors, including the founder and team ourselves. I appreciate the support and investment from all who believed in us.
Time will reveal how this unfolds. As we head toward the next milestone, TGE, we’ll keep doing what we’ve always done: Build—so that one day, we can connect the dots backward.”
The TGE, or Token Generation Event, marks the next key phase in CROSS’s roadmap. Public sale participants will receive their token allocations based on this upcoming schedule, as the foundation transitions from fundraising to ecosystem expansion. OGF, in collaboration with NEXUS, is now focused on accelerating the adoption of its open blockchain gaming platform by onboarding developers, growing its player community, and enhancing the infrastructure for Web3 game development.
CROSS is positioned at the intersection of decentralized finance, user empowerment, and interoperable game economies. As the flagship project of the Opengame Foundation, the platform is not merely a technical protocol but also a social movement advocating for open access and equitable value creation in gaming. Through its initiatives, OGF seeks to challenge legacy systems of monetization and usher in a new era where players and developers alike have meaningful ownership in the games they help shape.
