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 »

The Day Paris Broke Free

🎙️ Marquee Event of the Day

On August 25, 1944, Paris was liberated from Nazi occupation during World War II. After four years under German control, Free French troops under General Jacques-Philippe Leclerc entered the city to widespread jubilation. The liberation was symbolically completed when General Charles de Gaulle marched down the Champs-Élysées later that day.

📌 Why This Matters

The liberation of Paris marked a turning point in the European theatre of World War II. Not only did it boost Allied morale, but it also paved the way for the final defeat of Nazi Germany. It was a powerful statement of French resistance and resilience, and a reminder of the city’s enduring spirit in the face of tyranny.
