[XPLA Telescope #9] YGG as an Initial Validator
XPLA is a tendermint-based, gaming and entertainment specialized layer1 Mainnet. XPLA is pleased to introduce our initial validator, Yield Guild Games (YGG), one of the largest Web3 gaming guilds with players all over the world! We’re anticipating forming a long and solid partnership and creating synergies in the blockchain gaming field.
*Initial Validators are among the first active validators for XPLA since its operation.
YGG Joins XPLA’s Ecosystem as an Initial Validator
As the leading Web3 gaming guild, Yield Guild Games (YGG) is taking a proactive role in helping to secure the future of the Web3 gaming space by joining the XPLA ecosystem as one of the initial validators for the XPLA blockchain. YGG, along with the other initial validators, will operate an XPLA node and will be responsible for authenticating each block and securing the transactions on the network. Beyond authenticating transactions, these validators play a crucial role in maintaining the network’s overall health and stability to ensure that it is running smoothly.
By taking an active role in helping secure the XPLA blockchain, YGG’s goal is to enable the gaming community to feel more confident with their assets as they play games within the ever-expanding XPLA ecosystem.
Yield Guild Games (YGG) is a Web3 gaming guild that provides enriching experiences for the next generation of gamers through quests, achievements, educational content and more as they enter the realm of Web3 gaming. To help provide more trusted interactions for its network of gamers, YGG is creating a comprehensive, chain-agnostic gamer reputation system to provide opportunities to players, create more tailored experiences for guild members and securely take their established identity to the gaming platforms where they play. This is one of the many initiatives that will build toward a stronger gaming ecosystem where players can be more confident in every interaction.
“As the blockchain gaming industry continues to evolve, it’s important that we recognize those who are making significant contributions to the ecosystem. YGG extends its full support to XPLA as they continue to innovate and grow,” said YGG co-founder Gabby Dizon. “As validators, we are demonstrating our commitment to innovation and to providing safer and more stable environments for our community to play.”
As part of the collaboration between the two organizations, one of XPLA’s leadership team, Paul Kim, presented at the Philippine Web3 Festival co-hosted by YGG in Manila last year in front of a global audience of industry leaders, consumers and the ever-growing YGG network of regionally focused gaming guilds across the world. Paul shared how XPLA are committed to building a sustainable ecosystem with a team of experts in the gaming industry to enable Web3 adoption through games. In addition, XPLA co-hosted a networking event at GDC with YGG this year, sharing great energies and visions about Web3 games!
What Propels YGG and XPLA Forward
YGG believes that when we play together, we unlock more opportunities together as a means to help each other level up both in games and in life. YGG’s dedication to creating cohesive blockchain gaming communities aligns with XPLA’s vision to foster a Web3 environment where communities can freely and confidently participate, with ‘Explore & Play’ value at its core.
XPLA values and respects the efforts and ownership of gamers, and strives to preserve the assets created by gamers’ long-time gameplays through the use of blockchain technology. XPLA recently announced the upcoming onboarding of three games on XPLA: Summoners War: Chronicles, Ace Fishing: CREW, and MiniGame Party, and hope to expand and integrate into gaming communities across the globe through cooperation with YGG!
With both YGG and XPLA aligned in their vision of what blockchain can offer gamers in terms of ownership and agency, it was a logical extension for the two to collaborate. In its role as a validator, YGG is committing to a more resilient ecosystem to benefit the XPLA gaming community for decades to come.
