BROUGHT TO YOU BY…

Throughout history, trivia has always been more than a game.

In ancient Greece, scholars tested each other’s wit in symposiums. In 12th-century Baghdad, thinkers debated questions in bustling libraries. Even in medieval Europe, monarchs used riddles and logic games to assess the sharpness of their advisors.

Today, a new chapter in that centuries-old tradition is being written — one that blends human curiosity with cutting-edge Web3 technology.

We’re proud to announce the launch of the MOT Solana Token on Raydium, the official utility token of the Masters of Trivia platform. Built on the Solana blockchain and backed by a thriving global community of over 200,000 players, MOT is the first step in transforming trivia into an economic, educational, and social engine for the 21st century.

👉 The Token is now live on Raydium — secure your tokens early: See MOT Token »

From Oak Park to Nobel Prize

🎙️ Marquee Event of the Day

On July 21, 1899, Ernest Hemingway was born in Oak Park, Illinois. Known for his minimalist prose, adventurous life, and complex persona, Hemingway would go on to win the Nobel Prize in Literature and leave behind some of the most enduring works in American letters.

📌 Why This Matters

Hemingway didn’t just write books, he changed the way we write. His terse, economical style became a blueprint for modern storytelling. His life, from WWI to Key West to Cuba, mirrored the action and conflict found in his fiction. He was both witness and participant in the defining events of his century.
