Nolan Bushnell’s Video Game Tournament Platform, Moxy, Joins Forces with SKALE Labs to Transform Reward-based gaming with Cutting-Edge Blockchain Technology, Removing Gas Fees
SKALE, the gas-free invisible blockchain network, is excited to announce a landmark partnership with Moxy, a pioneering video game tournament and gamification platform co-founded by Nolan Bushnell, a founding father of the video game industry and the co-founder of Atari. In the 1970s, Bushnell created the groundbreaking first computerized video game, “Pong.”
This collaboration marks a milestone in bridging Web2 games and gamers with a Web3 reward ecosystem. Bushnell is embracing and advancing SKALE’s gasless invisible blockchain technology, signaling a major shift in the gaming industry’s evolution.
Bushnell and the Moxy team chose SKALE for its unmatched speed and efficiency. SKALE’s recent Pacifica V3 Upgrade accelerated block mining speed by 108% and increased transaction throughput by 122%, solidifying SKALE as the world’s fastest and most efficient blockchain in the ongoing battle for modularity and next-gen performance.
“Our collaboration with SKALE is a game-changer for rewards in gaming. By eliminating gas fees and harnessing SKALE’s high throughput infrastructure, we are setting a new standard for how gamers can earn rewards through gamification,” said Nolan Bushnell, co-founder of Moxy. “We now have the potential to bridge the gap between casual and competitive gaming experiences, creating a seamless and rewarding experience for all users.”
As part of this partnership, Moxy will deploy on the SKALE Network and leverage SKALE’s advanced blockchain infrastructure. This deployment on SKALE will save Moxy users an impressive $3.5 million USD in transaction fees annually. Moxy Games will now have the opportunity to significantly elevate its competitive gaming environment and community reward system by integrating advanced features and innovative technologies that enhance player engagement and reward loyalty. This enhancement will not only enrich the gaming experience but also foster a more dynamic and interconnected community.
“Nolan’s influence on the gaming world is profound and enduring. Joining forces with Moxy under his leadership allows us to showcase the true potential of SKALE’s technology,” said Andrew Saunders, Chief Marketing and Growth Officer at SKALE Labs. “This partnership will not only drive innovation but also expand the reach and engagement of competitive gaming within the web3 space. As someone who grew up on Atari, we couldn’t be more excited to partner with such an iconic name and pioneer.”
This is further amplified by Moxy’s partnership with Overwolf, a platform with a vibrant community of 45 million active gamers.
The new partnership between Moxy and SKALE Labs tackles key challenges in blockchain enhanced gaming, such as high gas fees and slow transaction speeds. By leveraging SKALE’s advanced infrastructure, this joint effort represents a significant step forward in enhancing the gaming experience within the rapidly evolving blockchain landscape.
