Uprising L2: The First Multichain Native Yield Gaming Blockchain
Uprising Labs' flagship project is Uprising L2, the first multichain native yield gaming blockchain with access to $800 billion in liquidity. Uprising shares sustainable rewards at the protocol level with players, offering a secure, gas-free, brand-safe environment. This multichain approach enhances interoperability, allowing for diverse cross-chain interactions and expanded ecosystem capabilities. Players can earn yields through various in-game activities, creating a dynamic and rewarding gaming environment.
"Our main goal, beyond creating a sustainable token economy, is to share value back with our players. All game platforms exist in a symbiotic relationship with their players, and we recognize the need to include them in our successes," said Eric Vander Wal, Founder and CEO of Uprising Labs.
Current Problems with IMX and Other Gaming Blockchains
Existing gaming blockchains, such as Immutable X (IMX), face several challenges that hinder widespread adoption and user experience. These challenges include high gas fees, which can make transactions prohibitively expensive for players, and limited scalability, which can lead to congestion and slow transaction times.
Uprising Labs addresses these challenges by using the Oasys chain and Optimism L2 technology to create a gas-free, fast, and secure gaming environment. This solution effectively addresses the common drawbacks of blockchain gaming, offering a more seamless and engaging experience for players.
