Vigorus (VIS) is the utility token of Pegaxy (PGX), an NFT-based play-to-earn horse racing game. Players compete for the top 3 positions in a field of 12 racers, with races influenced by variables like wind, water, fire, speed, and others. Upgrading NFT horses improves the chances of winning races. The game features the eponymous Pega, a set of 5,000 NFTs released in October 2021. Players can race their Pega in PvP mode to earn VIS, sell or rent them on the marketplace, and compete in the global competition called The Grand Dash. Pegaxy aims to become the home of horse racing in the Metaverse, providing players with an ecosystem to play, socialize, and work. The game's Beta release on desktop occurred in December 2021, with a mobile version planned for the future. Pegaxy has plans to introduce additional features such as selling Pega food, releasing stadiums for sale, and implementing a staking mechanism.

Pegaxy was founded in February 2021 and has a team of over 50 full-time employees in various fields. The game was launched by its three core team members: CEO Ken Pham, CTO Steve Nguyen, and CMO Corey Wilton. Ken Pham has extensive experience as a Business Establishment Consultant and expertise in product development, business development, and international business relations. Steve Nguyen, the game's technical mastermind, previously served as the CTO of Appota Group and developed Gamota, a major Vietnamese game publisher. Corey Wilton, with over seven years of experience in digital marketing and customer service, is responsible for the game's marketing strategy, customer support, and brand design.

Pegaxy aims to stand out by providing a superior gaming experience. The races take place in slick 3D-racing arenas with a futuristic design, and the winner is determined by a random number generator influenced by factors like track attributes. The game features The Grand Dash Tournament, an annual tournament with monthly qualification rounds. Breeding and renting of Pegas, the game's NFTs, are also available. Pegaxy plans to introduce different NFT stadiums, gear, and food for Pegas in the future.

VIS is the game's utility token with an unlimited supply. It is minted for the top 3 of each race and burned during Pega breeding. The game's governance token is PGX, with a total supply of 1 billion.

Vigorus launched on Polygon, a layer-two scaling solution of Ethereum. Polygon uses a customized version of the Plasma framework built on proof-of-stake checkpoints that run through the Ethereum mainnet.

VIS is available on KyberSwap, QuickSwap, and UniSwap(V3). For more information on buying cryptocurrencies, refer to our guide.
