🎯 Off the Grid Skin Sales Hit $30K as Avalanche-Based Shooter Lands on OpenSea 🔫
-
Big news from the Off the Grid camp — and it’s not just about the kill count.
After rolling out on Steam last week, the Avalanche-based extraction shooter has now hit OpenSea, and players are already flipping in-game skins for serious cash. We're talking nearly $30,000 in volume in under 24 hours, with the rare Tacoma Pioneer gun skin selling for $1,688.
🧬 What Is Off the Grid?If you’ve missed the hype: OTG is a Web3 battle royale with a twist — players extract “hexes” that represent weapon and cosmetic NFTs. Originally limited to the GUNZ testnet, the game has been onboarding players to Avalanche mainnet since March, unlocking new layers of asset ownership and trade.
🧩 Why This Matters:Steam players now average 7,298 daily — but their version is still testnet only. OpenSea integration = real money, real liquidity for your digital assets. Skins are now tradable NFTs, but exporting still requires KYC (and only July 2024 OTG Pro users can export for now). The GUN token saw a small 1.5% uptick, but still down ~74% from its peak.
🧠 Collector Insight:
“This week is by far the greatest week for Off the Grid,” said one top skin flipper. “Steam will bring players. OpenSea will bring $$$.”
Translation? This is just the start of something much bigger.
The Numbers So Far:
🔁 967,200 GUN (~$29,417) traded on OpenSea since launch 🧢 Top Sale: Tacoma Pioneer gun skin — 55,300 GUN (~$1,688) 🎽 Highest previous sale (pre-OpenSea): Prankster Vest — $2,393 📊 Testnet txns spiked 46.6% within 48 hrs of Steam launch
Should You Ape In?
If you’re into skin economy plays, OTG may be worth watching. The OpenSea rollout is phased, so if you’re not in the July 2024 OTG Pro crew, you can still buy NFTs, just not import them into the game — yet.
As Steam adds players and OpenSea adds buyers, Off the Grid could become Web3’s next breakout skin economy, blending mainstream access with Avalanche’s blockchain layer.
Pro tip: Check out the GUN token’s action and keep an eye on phased rollout updates. This ecosystem is just getting warmed up.
