IQ Protocol teams up with Thrust Network to Revolutionize the Gaming Industry
The rise of Web3 gaming is changing the way games are both created and played. Despite the innovative solutions that platforms have already introduced, the industry is still plagued with the challenges of fragmentation, scams, and user disengagement in the Web3 gaming world. For one exciting platform in particular, these challenges don’t require small changes to be made. Instead, what’s required is a complete rethinking of how the Web3 gaming world should operate. 😱
IQ Protocol is pleased to announce our partnership with Thrust Network!
Thrust Network
Thrust Network is creating fully modular decentralized hubs for the creation and enjoyment of gaming. As they describe it, “think Shopify marries Discord servers but for collectibles, rewards and public good.”
Made up of a team of veteran tech builders, Thrust Network knows they have to approach the challenges of Web3 gaming from more than one angle. Their aim is to make things as simple as possible for both studios and gamers. Moreover, Thrust Network makes it possible for every game hub to become part of a larger network.
For studios, creating game-specific hubs is as simple as setting up a Discord server, dramatically streamlining the process and fostering a more cohesive dApp environment. For users, the onboarding process is equally straightforward, enabling them to dive into their gaming experiences and interact with their collectibles seamlessly. This direct connection between game creators, their games, and the community is what makes Thrust Network stand out. The platform evolves in real-time, adapting to the needs and desires of its users.
Thrust Network is already working with some of the best in the Web3 gaming space such as Champions Ascensions, Avalon, Elemental Raiders, Kryptomon, Aavegotchi and Aether Games among many others. The network also features vibrant community hubs for popular projects like Otherside, Azuki, Illuvium, and Star Atlas, showcasing their extensive reach and impact in the gaming community!
IQ Protocol x Thrust Network
Both Thrust Network and IQ Protocol are dedicated to deepening their relationship, sharing resources and working together to foster a more interconnected and efficient gaming ecosystem. This collaboration signifies a shared vision for the future of gaming, leveraging the power of blockchain technology to benefit both game developers and players.
Specifically, IQ Protocol is collaborating with Thrust Network to revolutionize the gaming industry by developing innovative widgets on top of Thrust Network platform. This will enable gaming studios to seamlessly activate and configure NFT rentals directly within their Thrust Network hubs.
What does this mean?
Consider a simple example. Central to Thrust Network are the NFTs and other collectibles from different cohort members (i.e. Web3 games and platforms). Thanks to IQ Protocol, users of Thrust Network — both developers and gamers — will be able to implement or interact with a completely risk- and collateral-free marketplace to rent or lend-out their NFTs. Now, players will have access to items or aspects of a game they might otherwise be unable to reach. And developers can easily create and configure NFTs that best suit their vision and integrate them seamlessly within their game. How much easier could it be!?
Wow! This is all risk- and collateral-free? How’s that possible?!
Instead of giving the original asset to the borrower, IQ Protocol mints an expirable version of the NFT (which contains all of the unique features of the original). This NFT is then given to the borrower. This guarantees that the original NFT is always safe and can be returned to the owner after the agreed-upon rental contract has expired. Now, players can rest easy renting out their most valuable items.
