New Cryptocurrency Presales To Watch In June – PlayDoge, WienerAI and Sealana

Crypto investors are always on the lookout for promising new crypto presales, as they offer an opportunity to buy tokens at a discounted price before they hit major exchanges. By participating in presales, investors can potentially secure tokens at a lower cost and take profits upon the project’s launch or hold for the long term if they believe in its prospects.
In this article, we’ll analyze three of the new crypto presales to watch in June 2024: PlayDoge, WienerAI, and Sealana.
PlayDoge ($PLAY)
PlayDoge is a new presale that launched on May 28th and raised over $255,000 in less than a day, highlighting decent investor interest in the project.
This is a play-to-earn (P2E) mobile game inspired by the classic Tamagotchi virtual pet craze of the 90s. Players will care for and nurture their own digital Doge pet, feeding it, playing mini-games with it, and ensuring it stays happy and healthy.
The $PLAY token is the utility token that powers the PlayDoge ecosystem. Players need to hold $PLAY tokens to receive P2E rewards for caring for their Doge pet and playing mini-games. The token is used for all in-game transactions, such as upgrades and special features. Additionally, players can earn additional $PLAY by climbing leaderboards based on their pet-caring skills.

The $PLAY token launched on presale recently, giving investors a chance to buy the token at a discounted price of $0.005 before its DEX listing. The project’s hard cap is set at $24 million.
Key features of PlayDoge include 8-bit retro graphics and gameplay inspired by Tamagotchi, a mobile app available on iOS and Android, an interactive world where players can form communities, a leaderboard system that rewards top pet carers with bonus $PLAY, and the $PLAY token built on the Binance Smart Chain (BEP-20 standard). During the initial presale stage, PlayDoge offered a high staking APY of 8,315%.
So, with its nostalgic appeal, P2E rewards, and potential for major exchange listings, PlayDoge aims to tap into the rapidly growing P2E gaming and meme coin markets. You can buy $PLAY only via the official presale website link until it launches.

WienerAI ($WAI)
Second on our list of the next crypto presales to watch in June is WienerAI. This new AI/meme coin is an ERC-20 token built on the Ethereum blockchain, positioning itself as the universe’s most powerful and advanced cybernetic being. It merges AI technology with the appeal of meme coins and dog-themed cryptocurrencies like Dogecoin. Over $3.3 million has been raised in the presale so far, with a hard cap set around $13 million.
One of WienerAI’s core features is an advanced AI-powered trading bot designed to identify promising investment opportunities. Users can input their risk tolerance and target gains, and the bot’s predictive algorithms will scan the market to present suitable trades across multiple decentralized exchanges (DEXs). The bot also provides real-time MEV protection to prevent front-running bots from stealing users’ gains.

Moreover, investors can stake their $WAI tokens and earn an estimated annual yield of 308%. Over 3.3 billion tokens have already been staked, allowing early investors to earn passive income while awaiting exchange listings.
WienerAI promotes a community-led project called the “Sausage Army,” where users collaborate and have a say in the platform’s growth and direction. The project aims to build a passionate community ready to spread its vision and impact.
To buy WienerAI ($WAI) tokens, users need to download a compatible crypto wallet like MetaMask, Coinbase Wallet, or WalletConnect. They can then fund the wallet with ETH or USDT tokens, connect it to the WienerAI presale, and purchase the desired amount of $WAI tokens. Alternatively, tokens can be bought directly on the presale website with a credit card.
Sealana ($SEAL)
Last, but not least, on our list is Sealana, a new Solana meme coin looking to replicate Slothana’s success, which reached over $100 million in market cap after its launch.
Sealana is a meme coin inspired by the popular “Gamer Guy” character from the TV show South Park. Its mascot is a patriotic, obese American redneck seal who is portrayed as trading his way out of his mother’s basement. The coin aims to tap into the meme coin craze and the growing popularity of Solana-based projects.

Sealana is built on the Solana blockchain and has its own native token called $SEAL. The project recently launched an initial coin offering (ICO) or presale phase, where investors can purchase $SEAL tokens by sending Solana (SOL) tokens to a designated wallet address.
The presale has no announced hard cap, meaning it could end abruptly once the team decides to stop accepting investments. Currently, 1 $SEAL is priced at $0.022. After the presale, Sealana plans to list its $SEAL token on cryptocurrency exchanges for public trading. You can also buy $SEAL tokens directly on the project’s website.
Conclusion
New crypto presales are constantly emerging in this industry, offering potential opportunities for investors. PlayDoge, WienerAI, and Sealana are three of the next crypto presales to watch in June 2024, each bringing features and potential to the market. While presales carry inherent risks, they also present the chance to secure tokens at a discounted price before they hit major exchanges.

League of Legends fans irate at $500 bundle celebrating its greatest player

League of Legends (LoL) fans were upset when they saw the $500 price tag Riot Games placed on a new content bundle celebrating esports player Lee “Faker” Sang-hyeok, League’s winningest player all-time, after their induction into the game’s new Hall of Legends.
Faker bundle upsets LoL fans

“Faker is truly the most iconic and influential figure in League of Legends and esports history,” said John Needham, President of Esports at Riot Games. “His name is synonymous with excellence in LoL Esports, and he has rightfully earned his place as our very first Hall of Legends inductee.”
The Esports icon has a dedicated following, so this induction to commemorate him as one of the pro players of note marks a significant milestone for the LoL brand.
“Faker is more than the winningest player in League history: he’s the face of his sport. His journey, full of triumph and trials, resilience and glory, has touched the hearts of millions of fans and fellow players,” said the LoL post.
The bundle to celebrate Faker will be split into multiple buying options—the Hall of Legends Pass, Risen, Immortalized, and Signature.
Hall of Legends:

Risen Legend LeBlanc Skin
SKT T1 Zed, Ryze & Syndra Skins
125 Mythic Essence
14 Faker-ific Icons & Emotes
“Broccoli Baron” Title

LoL fans vent their ire at prices
Not all of the LoL community has been celebrating though, as the game’s Reddit feed can attest. Fans took to the social platform to vent their ire, with statements like “The Hall of Legends event was never about celebrating Faker, it was about making money.”
Reddit user SwiftRespite said: “Riot putting the full skin behind a paywall is the biggest insult imaginable to us. Riot chose to exploit our love for Faker for their own gain.
This was suppose to be something to remember Faker by, when he has retired and proof that we were here and cheering for him when he was still playing and lifted those Trophies.”
At the highest tier (Signature), the bundle in question costs around $500  and has 100 levels of the event progression unlocked. There are other levels of the celebration skin. Still, the lowest-priced character skin, the Risen, is $40, which is very steep for the average LoL fan.
This has led to some players boycotting the bundle, with users like Arcuran stating, “I already have Fakers Ahri skin. It’s called the base skin, and in honour of Faker, that’s the skin I will be using.”

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 gets a live-action trailer starring 1990s world leaders

Fresh off Monday’s paranoid, nostalgic teaser, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 just got a live-action trailer in the build-up to a full reveal on June 9.
The game looks set to focus on the 1990s, and the trailer features a host of politicians from that era. Again, the trailer features Margaret Thatcher, Saddam Hussein, George H.W. Bush, and Bill Clinton, all making intriguing, cryptic statements.

What is Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 about?
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 was announced earlier this month and it will get a special close-up livestream following Microsoft’s Xbox Games Showcase on June 9. The sub-series of Activision Blizzard’s mega-hit shooter franchise is no stranger to political intrigue or an alternate take on the geopolitical struggles of wartime gone by.
Each installment features a political milestone in world history with a Call of Duty characteristic tweak in a darker setting. Iconic political figures are used to give the game a sense of realism, even if events present a fictional alternate-universe timeline of political tensions.
Rumors abounded that the game would be set during the Gulf War era of the early 1990s and featured in a November launch slot, like the other Black Ops titles developed by Treyarch.
Raven Software is joining the development of this iteration of the covert series, and there have been whispers of an open-world map. This doesn’t rule out a linear storyline or a series of chapters that have been used as a narrative vehicle in other Call of Duty installments, but it would meet a growing trend in first-person shooter games like Far Cry and Dying Light.
Fans can look forward to more exciting details about the game, which will be revealed immediately after the Xbox Games Showcase on June 9, 2024, starting at 10am PT / 1pm ET / 6pm BST.
Like its predecessors, the game will be available on various platforms, including PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.

Dragon’s Dogma 2 sells 3 million copies in just two months

Capcom says Dragon’s Dogma 2 has sold more than 3 million copies in two months. The milestone shows the success of the Japanese publisher’s follow-up to Dragon’s Dogma, a 2012 game that was enough of a cult hit to generate a sequel more than a decade later — and a sequel that has sold very well.
Dragons Dogma 2’s 3 million milestone
Capcom announced the news on X, thanking the many millions of “Arisen” for their support for the series. For those unfamiliar with the lands of Vermund and Battahl, the “Arisen” is the name of the protagonist of the critically acclaimed series.

Thank you to the 3 million Arisen who have embarked on adventures in Dragon’s Dogma 2! We are grateful for your continued support.

The title’s success has been part of a huge year for Capcom, which earlier announced it was on track to record its seventh consecutive year of record-setting sales.
Full-year revenue for the publisher is expected to reach $979 million, and the Japanese gaming powerhouse attributed a part of this 8.3% increase on the previous year to Dragons Dogma 2. Which “has performed favorably,” according to the financial reports.
Despite the commercial and critical success, there has still been turbulence at the community level for both the publisher and the game. We reported earlier that Dragon’s Dogma 2 came in for significant criticism for its microtransactions.
Players were faced with the tempting conundrum of paying for fast travel in the game. Amongst other paid elements, the scheme cast a cloud over what was otherwise a big hit with fans. Still, the game at its core is a great high-fantasy romp, but hopefully, Capcom learns from the unrest of a healthy pool of fans of the dragon-slaying series.
We have put together a list of helpful ways to traverse the world of Dragon’s Dogma, the best mods, and a whole lot of useful tricks to get the best out of the Capcom title:

Capcom has also quizzed fans of Dragon’s Dogma 2, asking them how much they would be willing to pay for downloadable content (DLC) and a host of other questions via a survey, hinting at future plans, and responses to existing problems.
