The Zed Run borrowing system looks very similar to what we’ve seen with Riot Racers. The borrowers pick a Racehorse from the rental list, enter it into races, and thensplit the profits with the horse owner. No prior requirements involved for borrowing. Just connect your wallet, pick a horse from the Borrowing marketplace, and start racing!

May I Borrow a Racehorse?

Zed Run offers a safe rental system. The NFTs never leave the owner’s wallet. But, in a bit of a twist, Horse owners can only acquire Lending Permits by staking ZED tokens. Each Permit allows the holder to put one Horse up for rental. Owners who wish to rent multiple horses will need multiple Permits. Holders can turn in permits they aren’t using and receive their staked tokens back.

The staking component is an interesting design decision, as it forces the owners to be a little more engaged with the ecosystem and invest in ZED tokens as well as Horses.

Borrowing is as simple as selecting the horse you want and then clicking the Borrow Racehorse button. It requires signing two transactions, but neither one costs gas fees. Lending permits have a limited duration. Once the lending period is up, the Horse returns to the marketplace, or to the owner’s stable depending on their settings. Players can only borrow one horse at a time, to prevent someone from hoarding all of the horses. Rentals run for four days and currently default to a 50/50 split. Though hopefully, a future update will allow the owners to set their own percentages and rental periods.

When a borrower earns a prize payout from a paid race, their entry fee is refunded before the profits are split between owner and racer. This is a nice way to provide extra encouragement for entering the paid races!

Zed Head Nood Suit?

Zed Run recently made a collaboration with a project called Human Park. This resulted in the creation of special,’ Zed Head’ skins that are either beautiful or the stuff nightmares are made of, depending on your perspective.

Players can already equip and wear these suits in the Human Park demo client. Interested parties may mint their own suit at https://www.vhslab.com/?section=zedhead, or purchase an already minted one on Open Sea.

New mints cost ETH (0.05) or 875 Zed tokens. There are nine different designs available, and no mint limit, though this mint will only be available for a limited time.

For those uninitiated in the ways of Zed Run, know that every horse in this horse racing game is a player-owned NFT. The owners of these NFTs can race their horses in different competitions and win crypto prizes in the process. Victories are won based on horse statistics and a bit of luck.

Players have been buying all kinds of horses from the marketplace, and these are mostly pure-breeds. These tend to be the best horses available. Making money however, isn’t limited to racing. Players can also make their stallion available for breeding: resulting in new horses.

Keep in mind, Zed Run is deep into the horse breeding terminology. A virgin horse is either a colt (male) or filly (female). As soon as a horse as produced one offspring, the male becomes a stallion and the female a mare.

What is Zed Run?

In essence Zed Run is a blockchain-powered horse racing game. The game first launched on Ethereum and now made a successful jump to Polygon. Players can collect horses. Then they need to race in competitions. In addition they can breed horses, and create a legacy or strong bloodline. There are four different bloodlines in the game, for example the Nakamoto is generally the strongest performer, but the Buterin bloodline can be very impredictable. Overall the bloodline influences a horse’s abilities significantly.

In addition horses have a genotype. Breed two horses with genotype 10 and 25, then their child will have genotype 35. The higher that number, that less pure blood they are. This also means that they will perform less. Furthermore there’s a breed type, which only counts for genesis horses. It adds some extra spice to the rarity and performance. Horses will also have characteristic, ranging from distance they can run, to gate preference, handicap and fatigue.

Players can enter a race through the website. They select a gate, a horse, and then they will need to pay a fee to join. These Zed Run games offer a prize pool, making the game possibly profitable. However, there are also races that are completely free. These free races are often timed and event based.
