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 »

The Revolution on Canvas

🎙️ Marquee Event of the Day

On July 19, 1834, Edgar Degas was born in Paris, France. Though famously resistant to being called an “Impressionist,” Degas was a cornerstone of the movement. His focus on dancers, theatre, and everyday scenes, combined with radical framing and bold technique, helped define one of the most important periods in art history.

📌 Why This Matters

Impressionism was more than a style, it was a revolution. It challenged centuries of academic painting and brought everyday life to the canvas. Degas, along with Monet, Renoir, Morisot, and others, helped usher in a new way of seeing that still resonates today.
