[PRESS RELEASE – New York City, New York, May 24th, 2024]
PlayFi, an AI-powered data network and blockchain tailored for the gaming industry, today announced its plan to conduct an exclusive node license presale on Polygon PoS Network. This sale deployment on the Polygon network marks PlayFi’s entrance into the market, showcasing its commitment to integrating blockchain technology into the traditional gaming world.
“We believe that launching our node license presale on Polygon PoS points to a pivotal moment in how blockchain can play a role in creating renewed innovation in gaming,” said Franklin Mongiove, Head of Partnerships at PlayFi. “The blended vision of gaming and blockchain creates momentum where the two not only coexist, but can be used in tandem to create better gaming experiences. Our goal at PlayFi is to see cohesion among traditional gamers and game studios with web3, where instead of asking publishers to build on web3 rails, they build new layers with cutting-edge technology.”
Introducing PlayFi’s Modular Node License
As part of the presale, users on the Polygon PoS network will gain exclusive access to tier one pricing of PlayFi’s innovative modular nodes license, ahead of the tiered public sale coming later this summer. Node license holders will be eligible for rewards for helping run the PlayFi network by ingesting, validating and storing data from AAA and indie games in web2 and web3.
PlayFi will continue its synergy with the Polygon community by becoming the first zkSync hyperchain to join the AggLayer, creating innovation with cross-chain interactions for game builders and players.
