Bearish Invades GIGACHADBAT: The Big Four Trigger a High-Stakes CHAD Raid

3 min read
  • Web3 gaming publisher, YGG Play, has launched a crossover event in which players can face-off against popular Bearish characters in their baseball-themed game, GIGACHADBAT.
  • The event which runs from January 31 to February 3, allows players to earn double-rewards on GIGACHADBAT’s play-to-airdrop (P2A) leaderboards.
  • The event coincides with the February 6 launch of GIGACHADBAT’s in-game utility and rewards token, $CHAD, with players ranked higher on the P2A leaderboard standing to receive a larger airdrop.

Web3 gaming publisher YGG Play has refreshed its degen-focussed offerings, launching an IP-crossover event which sees its hit baseball-themed game GIGACHADBAT join forces with well-known NFT collection and degen IP, Bearish.

From January 31 until February 3, four of Bearish’s most well-known characters: Barry ‘The OG’, Bella ‘The Heartbreaker’, Scotty ‘The Street Bear’ and Toli ‘The Chaos King’ will enter GIGACHADBAT as part of a limited-time Boss Raid. During the event, players will earn double rewards points towards their GIGACHADBAT play-to-airdrop (P2A) leaderboard ranking.

“Partnering with YGG Play is about plugging into an ecosystem that understands games, communities, and how to scale them globally,” Toli, the co-founder of Bearish, said in a statement. 

“YGG knows how to turn strong IP into addictive gameplay, and CHAD Raids bring Bearish into GIGACHADBAT in a way that’s native to the gameplay itself.”

Event Comes as GIGACHADBAT Prepares Token Launch

The crossover event comes as YGG Play prepares for the February 6 launch of GIGACHADBAT’s $CHAD token. $CHAD is described by YGG Play as being an in-game utility and reward token that “unlocks powerful in-game benefits for GIGACHADBAT players.” 

Staking the token will allow players to receive rewards like more powerful bats and balls and other gameplay perks.

According to YGG Play, $CHAD will remain DeFi only, with no plans to pursue centralised exchange (CEX) listings of the token. The broader YGG Play ecosystem already has another token with CEX listings, $YGG. $YGG will remain the ecosystem’s main token, with $CHAD being used specifically for GIGACHADBAT.

The event also coincides with the launch of Bearish’s $BURR token, a hybrid ERC-404 asset that will be used within the Bearish ecosystem.

YGG Games said there are plans to expand its collaboration with Bearish throughout 2026, with a similar crossover event planned in March involving another YGG Play game, LOL Land Board.

Trump Owns $870 Million Bitcoin Amid Crypto Market Meltdown

Trump Owns $870 Million Bitcoin Amid Crypto Market Meltdown

The post Trump Owns $870 Million Bitcoin Amid Crypto Market Meltdown appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. President Donald Trump has quietly become one of the world’s largest Bitcoin (BTC) holders, even as the crypto market faces a historic meltdown. The revelation comes as Bitcoin and the broader crypto market struggle through one of their steepest declines in recent years. Trump Media’s $2 Billion Bitcoin Bet Makes President A Major Investors According to a Forbes report, Trump’s indirect Bitcoin exposure is now valued at around $870 million, placing him among the biggest investors in the digital asset space. Despite the crash, Trump’s holdings remain strong, showing his business’ growing ties to the crypto market. Forbes found that Trump’s holdings are not listed in any official government filings or financial disclosures. Instead, his exposure comes through his 41% stake in Trump Media and Technology Group, the parent company of Truth Social. Earlier this year, Trump Media raised $2.3 billion through debt and stock sales, using most of the proceeds to buy $2 billion worth of Bitcoin. The move aligns with MicroStrategy’s renewed interest in buying Bitcoin after not buying any last week. That move gave Trump a massive indirect stake in the world’s largest cryptocurrency. Trump Media’s Bitcoin Strategy Shows Trump’s Shift From Crypto Disbelief When the company chose to start holding BTC on its balance sheet, it represented a radical turning point from just being a social media company. Through the adoption of the same corporate treasury technique popularized by Michael Saylor’s Strategy Inc., Trump Media has become a U.S. company holding large amounts of Bitcoin. This shift mirrors the growing wave of institutional adoption. Recently, trillion-dollar asset manager Morgan Stanley opened crypto investments to all its wealth clients. According to Forbes, the company’s overall evaluation has fallen since its Bitcoin purchase. However, its Bitcoin reserves now make up the strongest part of its balance sheet. Trump’s…
