Game On: A Dive into Xode Gaming Blockchain
Xode is a brand new gaming parachain in the Polkadot ecosystem. It merges Web3 gaming, NFTs, and GameFi, paving the way for mass adoption by attracting a new wave of gamers and users. The Xode appchain is already launched on the Kusama network, with plans to launch on the Polkadot relay chain later this year.
Originating from the Philippines, Xode blockchain proudly holds the title of the “the Philippines’ first homegrown blockchain” marking a significant milestone. Also, it highlights the Philippines’ substantial role in driving adoption and welcoming new users to the Polkadot ecosystem from the South East Asian region.
Crypto Adoption in the Philippines and Southeast Asia
Donald Lim, the founder of the Blockchain Council of the Philippines, is optimistic about the country’s potential for blockchain adoption. In a conversation with Cointelegraph, Lim underscored the nation’s technological readiness and the promising future due to the young generation of Filipinos and talented individuals entering the industry both as users and as builders.
Combining Ethereum adoption and Polkadot tech stack
Ethereum is well known as the most popular among Web3 developers to build smart contracts and dApps using Solidity. However, it has a lot of limitations in terms of scalability, high fees and customization of dApps. Contrasting with this, Xode leverages the Polkadot SDK, which not only allows to deploy EVM layer bringing Ethereum smart contract and dApp compatibility, NFT interactions, and asset integration, but also embraces WASM for the development of more advanced gaming dApps and use cases. This combination positions Xode at the forefront of a new era of blockchain-based gaming, enhancing the user experience while fostering innovation and growth in the sector.
Joining the Xode ecosystem
Xode has already integrated with Xgame platform which allows hosting of Web3 games on Xode blockchain. This collaboration facilitates a robust infrastructure for game developers to deploy their games, tapping into the benefits of blockchain technology. The synergy between Xode and the Xgame platform has already a selection of immersive games currently live for enthusiasts to explore
In conclusion, Xode Blockchain stands tall with its multifaceted features — scalability, interoperability, customizability, shared security, and intrinsic governance. It is not just a cog in the Polkadot machinery but a significant driving force pushing the boundaries of what decentralized networks can achieve. As XODE continues to develop and integrate within the Polkadot paradigm, the horizon for blockchain technology expands, opening up new vistas of possibilities for developers and users alike. Stay tuned for more updates.
