Paul Barron, in collaboration with the CoinSpeech team, recently discussed significant advancements in the realm of Web3 gaming. You can find Paul Barron’s new video below.
Mythos Chain Dominates NFT Sales Volume
One standout development is the rapid rise of the Mythos chain in the NFT sales volume rankings. Paul noted, “It’s over Avalanche now, overtaking even Flow,” indicating a significant shift in the Web3 gaming ecosystem. This growth suggests new dynamics as Mythos continues to gain traction.
Interoperability: The Future of Gaming
Paul highlighted the groundbreaking technology enabling games to interconnect seamlessly. Demonstrating this, he said, “I can actually walk through that portal and I’m in somebody else’s game.” This tech, developed by Mythos and PolyStream, promises a fully decentralized 3D internet, allowing players to move between different game engines effortlessly.
Efficient Edge Computing with PolyStream
PolyStream’s efficient edge computing is transforming the gaming landscape. Paul explained, “Not only can you run games and do it cost-effectively, our solution is about a tenth of the cost because we’re not using cloud GPUs anymore.” This cost-efficiency, combined with decentralization, signals a major shift in how games are streamed and played.
Consumer Onboarding Made Easy
A notable mention was the new process for integrating users into Web3. Paul showcased an example, “All I had to do was purchase a $7 toy at Target and scan the QR code and follow the instructions.” This simple, user-friendly onboarding method could pioneer widespread consumer adoption of blockchain technologies.
The Ready Player One Vision
Paul referenced the vision from the book “Ready Player One,” emphasizing a community-driven internet: “A group of upstart punks…took it upon themselves to take control of the internet…from something controlled by a giant corporation to something controlled by a community.” This mirrors the decentralized ethos of Web3 gaming Paul advocates for.
Future Prospects with XRPL and Futurverse
Looking forward, Paul hinted at promising developments with XRPL and Futurverse: “Get ready because all of this is happening in a couple of weeks, and this is where XRP is to start to reveal a bigger and more master plan around their gaming effort.” This anticipation builds excitement for upcoming innovations in the space.
