WolvesDAO, arguably the strongest, most well-connected gaming network in the entire crypto space, just launched $WOOF.
Their goal? To build the “aixbt of web3 gaming”.
In simple terms - it’s AI-powered gaming intelligence, and it’s launching on Avalanche.
But does it have real potential? Let’s see 👇
Overview
$WOOF sits at the crossroads of AI and gaming, aiming to "make crypto gaming great again" and serve as a home for those who believe in its future.
At the heart of this initiative is WoofXBT, an AI-powered gaming intelligence agent leveraging WolvesDAO’s proprietary three-year dataset and GamesLab’s analytics platform, which includes:
- 2,000+ tracked mints, TGEs, and playtests
- 500K+ Discord messages offering deep crypto gaming insights
- 3M+ wallets currently monitored
- 300+ APIs integrated across 7 blockchains at launch
WoofXBT isn’t just another AI bot spamming generic content. Instead, it delivers high-value gaming insights through:
- X (Twitter): Posting actionable insights and trends
- Telegram Mini-App ("Woof Companion"): Sending personalized gaming updates based on wallet activity (news, mint dates, playtests, etc.)
Tracking over 50+ key gaming metrics, WoofXBT aims to be a real-time gaming oracle rather than an AI that adds noise without value.
The team is clear on their vision: no AI slop.
This is the single biggest priority we have with building WoofXBT - ZERO AI slop. No churning out content just because, no littering peoples' replies with mindless garbage.Interesting and useful content only. - sparkc
So how do they ensure quality?
Their proprietary dataset isn’t just public information - it includes exclusive insights from partnerships and private Web3 gaming ecosystems that WolvesDAO has cultivated over the years.
This is their competitive edge: a network of relationships that provides access to deeper, more valuable intelligence.
The Wolves' Impact on Web3 Gaming
Beyond the what (technology), the who - WolvesDAO’s reputation and network - are what give $WOOF real credibility.
Since 2021, WolvesDAO has been one of Web3 gaming’s most respected and influential communities, housing:
- Top builders + VCs shaping the industry
- Elite gamers with deep expertise
- Sharp analysts tracking trends before they emerge
They’ve earned their spot in multiple ecosystem airdrops, and their purge system + 300-member hard cap ensures that only high-quality contributors remain.
We’re not a coin, we’re a culture.
$WOOF is simply the natural, financialized extension of their collective intelligence.
Why launch on Avalanche?
Deep relationships and aligned vision.
Avalanche has cemented itself as a top-tier Web3 gaming ecosystem, partnering with major studios like:
- Off The Grid
- MapleStoryU
- Shrapnel
Unlike chains that chase trends and have become more general-purpose, Avalanche has backed gaming through both bull and bear markets. Similarly, WolvesDAO has consistently provided top-tier insights to Web3 games, studios, and VCs - making them the perfect partner for Avalanche’s gaming ambitions.
Team
WolvesDAO is led by proven operators with deep industry experience, notably:
Founder:
- @paytkaleiwahea - Web3 gaming veteran and content creator with years of industry experience.
Co-Founders:
- @sparkcsays - Web3 gaming expert and analyst for Arete Capital.
- @samsteffanina - 2023 Content Creator of the Year and host of ‘Gamified’.

$WOOF Token & Airdrop Strategy
Despite bearish market sentiment, launching now is a calculated move.
Historically, bear-market launches tend to build stronger foundations for long-term success - avoiding the unsustainable hype cycles that often kill tokens launched in peak bull runs.
They reference successful launches like $KET and $WINK as proof of this strategy.
Airdrop Eligibility
WolvesDAO designed the airdrop to prioritize real gamers over speculators.
Who qualified?
- Top 2,500 accounts on the Infinigods Valhalla leaderboard (spanning 110+ connected gaming projects).
- Accepted applicants through WolvesDAO’s traditional selection process.
- Participants in Steam integration (details here).
- Users “rugged” by previous projects, as a form of redemption.
A full breakdown of the airdrop criteria.
Future Outlook
The launch of $WOOF is WolvesDAO’s proof-of-concept for how a gaming-native community can execute a high-quality token launch.
So far, the signs are strong:
- Avalanche’s gaming momentum is accelerating
- The Wolves community is more engaged than ever
- AI x Gaming is emerging as a major crypto narrative
Whats next?
- Future iterations of Woof Terminal in the Telegram app.
- Partnership activations, for example, with HoloworldAI to expand the WOOF IP.
Final Thoughts
WolvesDAO’s launch of $WOOF is a perfect fusion of a top-tier Web3 community and one of the strongest gaming ecosystems in crypto.
Their biggest advantage? Their elite network.
The biggest risk? Imo - execution and sector-specific momentum.
Good intentions don’t guarantee success - but the long-term bet is that WolvesDAO will continue building, regardless of market conditions. And if that’s the case, this might just be the beginning.
