Blum is an innovative currency exchange platform with a unique twist—it’s presented as a game for now.

Developed by a team of Russian-speaking creators who actively share updates and ideas on YouTube, Blum aims to bridge the gap between fun and finance. Although the developers emphasize that "We are not a game, we are an exchange," the current format is still gamified.

The Concept: Play Now, Earn Later

At present, users can accumulate in-game currency through a simple and engaging game. Once the app officially launches, which the developers predict will happen towards the end of the year, these in-game earnings can be exchanged for any cryptocurrency of choice.

What Can Users Do Now?

Currently, the app offers two main features:

Play the Game: Engage in the gaming aspect to earn virtual coins.
Collect Earnings: Accumulate the coins earned through gameplay.
Potential for Profit

Blum’s potential profitability for users remains uncertain. The crypto market has seen successful launches before, such as Pavel Durov’s Not cryptocurrency. Blum is already collaborating with major exchanges like Binance and OKX. Additionally, the app promotes other gaming projects, providing the developers with a revenue stream. In the future, Blum promises that users will receive tokens from crypto projects they subscribe to within the app. However, it’s still too early to predict how profitable Blum will be for everyday users.

Partnerships and User Concerns

An interesting aspect of Blum’s strategy is its collaboration with influencers. These partnerships have led to an increased maximum number of invited users for influencers, leaving regular users feeling left out. The exact extent of this disparity is unclear, but it has sparked some dissatisfaction among the community. To address this, the developers have suggested that regular users focus on building their personal brand to level the playing field with influencers. This approach, however, has not been well-received.

Conclusion: An Exciting Yet Uncertain Future

Blum stands at the intersection of gaming and cryptocurrency, offering an innovative approach to currency exchange. While the app is currently in its gamified phase, its transition to a fully operational exchange holds promise. Users are advised to stay engaged, keep an eye on updates, and prepare for potential opportunities once Blum officially launches.
