01 / WHAT IT BUILT
What the company did
Mythia was a US fintech startup founded in 2021. It launched 'a credit card for gamers, by gamers' in November 2020, whose app was designed like a game and rewarded every swipe with random prizes (free consoles, video games, Steam credits); Mythia 2.0, launched in July 2021, was billed as the world's first debit card with gaming rewards. The company later pivoted (end of 2021) to NFT discovery — 'Find profitable NFTs early' — and launched a lifetime-access NFT on Zeet infrastructure. Backed by Y Combinator and the co-founders of Tinder, Nerdwallet and Scale.ai, Mythia raised $130K over two rounds. No shutdown, bankruptcy or acquisition has been reported.
