GM Dexlab community!
We are glad to announce the upcoming IDO after a long time since Moonfrost.
Dexlab presents Honeyland as an upcoming IDO project. We hope launching Honeyland IDO on Dexlab makes Dexlab users’ experience sweeter than before 🍯.
What ‘deffo’ make Honeyland the hottest Play-and-Own project these days is that their 6,000 pieces of NFT collection sold out in 8 minutes on the #MagicEdens on December 24th 🎉. This result is soooo notable because first, NFT’s tidal wave is relatively subdued compared to before, and second, the sale was held in the crypto winter season. Moreover, Honeyland has its own NFT Explorer APP in the stores too. The alpha version of the Honeyland Game can be downloaded and played here: (https://guide.honey.land/) Dexlab and Honeyland have been partners since 2022, and we’ve been working together to build up the IDO process. So, you could say this initial DEX Offering event has been 2 years in the making! 🙌🏻
Okay, enough with the special status of the Honeyland, let’s head up to the Honeyland introduction and the IDO event details.
🍯 What is Honeyland?
Honeyland is a fun-first, play-and-own casual strategy mobile game from Hexagon Studios.AAA play and owns a casual-strategy game for Android/iOS with a simple onboarding experience and partnership with Samsung to 500,000 downloads in the next 6 months. Play α version: https://guide.honey.land. Honeyland is a fun-first, play-and-own casual strategy game from Hexagon Studios.
The Honeyland ecosystem of mobile games begins with Honeyland and will be followed by 8 more casual games with solo, PvP, and tournament play in 2023. All are powered by a single deflationary token ($HXD), with Honeyland being the core token-emitting game.
Players of Honeyland build their colony of bees to send them out to harvest Honey ($HXD) or hunt in-game consumable NFTs like power-ups, defensive items, or even playable characters.
They can also risk their own $HXD to attack other players’ hives in an intense auto-battler loop.
Our belief is that in order for web3 games to succeed, they need these three things:
1) Insanely fun to play
2) Ownership that creates value
3) Sustainable Economy
Honeyland proudly holds the esteemed Verified By Machinations seal, the gold standard in healthy game economics that verifies we have created a balanced, sustainable, and unexploitable economy.
🪛 Features?
💰 Economy & Token Utility
Honeyland is completely free-to-play. Players start with 9 bee’s that cannot be sold, traded or bred, but can be used to earn $HXD and items in game. They can spend their $HXD in game to upgrade their bees utility or cosmetics in the lab and our marketplace and use it to enter tournaments or play other games in the Honeyverse.
Players that want to transfer some of their $HXD out of the game and onto the blockchain will need to upgrade to our Beemium plan for $30 USDC, all proceeds from that get put directly back into player rewards.
Extracting $HXD out of the game will trigger a withdrawal tax that gets lower the more VIP rewards you earn throughout the course of game-play and by staking your assets.
The full list of VIP activities and rewards can be viewed here at https://honey.land/vip/

We are obsessed with providing utility to $HXD in three fundamental areas of people’s lives:
- Brings happiness — owning our token brings you happiness by playing the game, improving in the game, and playing and competing in all of the upcoming games and tournaments in the Honeyverse.
- Provides utility — Our token is used or redeemed for something that provides you value; In-game tools and functionality, NFTs, or even in real-life utility such as unlocking private events or buying merchandise.
- It creates more value — use our token to breed, level up your characters, buy more land, compete in tournaments, or many other ways that can help you earn more tokens, build stronger community relationships, and enhance gameplay.
The Honeyland token has a fixed supply and utility our players love.

🕹️ How We Scale to Millions of Players
Our user-acquisition team has been building, launching, and optimizing mobile app campaigns for some of the largest games and brands in the world for over a decade.
Our expertise and relationships in user acquisition give us an unfair advantage over every other web3 game out there.
We know how to use paid ads to bring in players at scale. We have relationships at every major ad network and most major OEMs to help us onboard web2 players worldwide.
Samsung is the first OEM to be announced to help us onboard hundreds of thousands of players this year, and we’re in talks with multiple other OEMs.

👩🏻🏫 The #Whitelisting Method on Dexlab
It is well-known to the Dexlab community that Dexlab stakers get a guaranteed spot for the IDO sale. Dexlab staking is affiliated with ProjectSerum by supporting the Serum-based staking pool. However, as we cannot fully convince who is an entity the according to contract now, we decided to hold up the Dexlab staking service from November. If you want to see the full announcement of the staking service closure, please check here.
Since the staking season 1 has ended, Dexlab IDO will be held in a lottery pool + guaranteed spot for Honeyland’s Genesis NFT holders. Dexlab will gather the information of Honeyland’s NFT holders from the project and guarantee the spot for the whitelist. If you are the one who holds Genesis NFT, please fill out this form to verify yourself.
