SANTA CLARA & SEOUL, US & Korea, March 21st, 2024, GamingWire
CARV, the modular data layer for gaming and AI, and MARBLEX, the gaming-focused blockchain company by Netmarble Corp., announced a strategic partnership today. Through this collaboration, MARBLEX will harness CARV's robust data layer to gain new insights into user behavior across web2 and web3 platforms, games, and devices, driving heightened global engagement and satisfaction among gamers.
MARBLEX's partnership with CARV promises multiple benefits. The South Korean gaming powerhouse will not only expand its formidable reach to web3 users through integration with CARV's ecosystem, encompassing 2.2 million gamers across key regions including Latin America, Southeast Asia, and Europe, but it will also gain deeper insights into user behavior and enhance service delivery through CARV's robust data infrastructure.
As a leading interoperable credential infrastructure, CARV bridges the digital divide between games and gamers with a user-centric data layer across mobile, PC, and console platforms. CARV uses its protocol and platform to offer gamers with all-in-one achievement display, semantic friend and game recommendations, and access to credential-gated gaming premiums. Games, meanwhile, can access comprehensive, compliant, and ethically sourced gamer data-a challenging feat for mobile games in today's post-IDFA era.
CARV has already notched partnerships with some of the biggest names in web3 including ecosystems like BNB Chain, Avalanche, Ronin, and Linea, as well as top games such as Shrapnel, Off the Grid, Apeiron, Pixelmon, and 600+ more, demonstrating a strong market appetite for data self-sovereignty in gaming.
Partnering with MARBLEX, a leading blockchain gaming company in South Korea, is yet another validation of CARV's innovative data layer. "MARBLEX is a gaming and blockchain pioneer and we're thrilled to elevate the company's data capabilities in the dynamic landscape of web3," said CARV co-founder Victor Yu. "Identifying the right audience-particularly in a compliant and ethical manner-is paramount for transitioning gamers from web2 to web3. We're eager to collaborate with MARBLEX in achieving precisely that," Yu said.
"Understanding our users is central to our role as game creators and ecosystem builders," said Jin Pyo-Hong, CEO of MARBLEX. "Partnering with CARV and its comprehensive data layer empowers us to provide personalized experiences through active data sharing, aligning our offerings even more closely with user preferences."
The strategic partnership caps off a period of great growth for CARV. In March, CARV received final approval from Ethereum for its revolutionary protocol, ERC-7231, which redefines data ownership and identity management in web3.
