In celebration of the new platform launch, Monsoon is gifting a free, commemorative, digital collectible to anyone who creates an account and makes their first purchase at mon.sn starting today, August 15, 2022 . Monsoon is also offering an exclusive free digital collectible to the millions of supporters who have backed CMON Kickstarter campaigns in the past.

"We've seen that there's a need in the market for an easy-to-use digital collectible platform solution—something that feels like you're collecting and trading cards, stickers and other collectibles with your friends, with minimal fees and a fun-to-use marketplace," said Carlos Pajares , Head of Development at Monsoon.

Pajares adds: "Monsoon was built on Flow, one of the most environmentally friendly types of blockchain, and we believe it's an exceptional choice for companies searching for a platform to house their digital collectibles. We're proud to launch the site with our Zombicide line of collectibles, and we have quite a few products lined up for later this year." Launched in 2020, Flow is built to support the next generation of apps, games, and the digital assets that power them.

The platform will allow users to visit a marketplace where they can buy, sell, and trade items from their collections. Certain cards can be fused together to create new ones, milestone achievements are available to be unlocked, and everything a user owns is displayed in their own showcase.

Monsoon has already enjoyed a great deal of support. Earlier this year, the company announced a pre-seed round of funding from Razer , the leading global lifestyle brand for gamers. In addition, prior to its public launch today, the platform conducted a beta test with key members of the press in an exclusive first look. The purpose of this preview was to collect any feedback and suggestions from fans, long-time writers about CMON, blockchain journalists, and gaming pros.

Gill, who ignited the meme stock craze in 2021 and is known as Roaring Kitty on other platforms, posted a screenshot on Reddit's Superstonk subreddit that shows a purported US$175 million position in GameStop shares and call options.
