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 Token on GeckoTerminal, 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 DEX (decentralized exchanges): secure them tokens early: See MOT Token »

🎙️ Marquee Event of the Day

August 30, 2003 – Charles Bronson, star of Death Wish and cinema’s eternal tough guy, dies at 81

His legacy wasn’t built on charm, it was built on resolve. From westerns to vengeance thrillers, Bronson redefined the anti-hero and made quiet intensity iconic.

📌 Why This Matters

Bronson’s rise from poverty to global stardom reflects a different kind of American dream, one carved not through speeches, but through quiet, relentless presence. He became a symbol of power without privilege.

🎯 Something That Makes This Day Special

Bronson remains one of the most enduring male icons of 1970s cinema, especially in France and Japan, where he was revered as the ultimate symbol of strength through silence.
