Scholarship Program

Overview

The VEFFUT Scholarship Program enables new players to start playing without any initial investment. Inspired by successful models from Axie Infinity and Yield Guild Games, our program creates a win-win ecosystem for both asset owners (Managers) and new players (Scholars).
