The Mythos Foundation and Mythical Games announced a historic partnership with Polkadot to bring 5M+ players into the Polkadot ecosystem. With the help of the Polkadot governance, this alliance is achieved by exchanging tokens between Polkadot’s and Mythos’ treasury. This will make Polkadot one of the largest gaming chains in the world.
Mythos Migration Signals Blockchain Potential, Says Mythical Games CEO
This partnership is a major achievement for Polkadot and the Mythos ecosystem. The Mythos Chain was originally running as a permissioned EVM-based blockchain and will move to Polkadot as a parachain. Given the flexible nature of Polkadot’s EVM implementation, the Mythos Chain will remain EVM compatible allowing builders to benefit from the future-proof WebAssembly-based Substrate framework. This migration opens the road to technical innovations and general development based on Polkadot.
Mythos Chain has currently got over 750,000 active wallets while its user base comprises of over 5 million people which means this migration will increase the number of gaming ecosystem for Polkadot to that of one of the largest blockchain gaming ecosystems in the world. Furthermore, Mythos becoming the first project to migrate to Polkadot also gives a strong signal to other projects about what the blockchain can offer.
Mythical Games CEO John Linden was confident that this partnership will change a lot. He also believes that both ecosystems have huge potential for growth, especially in terms of the technology as well as the community.
Through the Mythos Foundation, Web3 gaming seeks to build an integrated and inclusive blockchain ecosystem. Mythos has received backing from the Mythical Games ecosystem and includes the promotion of decentralized gaming economies, multi-chain support, and NFT support in an effort to make development easier and improve player experiences.
