Moxy, a video game tournament and gamification platform founded by Nolan Bushnell, today announced a partnership with Skale Labs. Moxy will leverage and advance Skale’s invisible, gasless blockchain technology. According to the companies, the technology will help solve one of the major challenges for Web3 gaming: gas fees.
The Moxy team chose Skale for its speed and efficiency. The team is migrating the Moxy Token from Ethereum to the Skale Protocol, which they say will save Moxy $3.5 million per year in gas fees. Moxy plans to reinvest the savings into its ecosystem.
Jack O’Holleran, CEO and co-founder of Skale, told GamesBeat, “It’s estimated that roughly 30 million people play blockchain games. That’s an impressive number, but it’s only a tiny fraction of the more than 3 billion people playing games worldwide. SKALE and Moxy are partnering with the goal of merging these worlds and welcoming the next billion players to Web3. Through this partnership, we hope to bring more players and transactions onto the SKALE blockchain, ultimately expanding the industry’s footprint by orders of magnitude.”
“Our partnership with Skale is revolutionizing Web3 gaming. By eliminating gas fees and leveraging Skale’s fast infrastructure, we’re setting a new standard for what gamers and developers can expect. We now have the potential to bridge the gap between traditional and blockchain gaming, providing a seamless, rewarding experience for everyone,” Bushnell said in a statement.
