Proof of Play, a blockchain game developer, has announced the launch of Boss Chain, a second chain that will support the growth and scalability of their primary chain, Apex. The addition of Boss Chain will allow Apex to continue scaling as it has recently reached its maximum capacity. Boss Chain is set to launch later this week.
Boss Chain is the first of several chains that will be introduced to support Apex and process multiple transactions simultaneously. This will greatly benefit Proof of Play’s flagship title, Pirate Nation. Currently, Apex processes 2.5 million transactions per day, and with the implementation of interconnected chains, Proof of Play aims to further expand its multichain vision and optimize onchain gaming.
Amitt Mahajan, the founder and CEO of Proof of Play, emphasized the importance of distributed transactions across multiple chains to achieve significant scalability. Mahajan drew from his experience developing Farmville, where the management of 64 databases was necessary to support 30 million daily active users and prevent game crashes. This experience led Mahajan to build the multichain infrastructure for Proof of Play, as it serves as an advanced database that ensures seamless scalability for ambitious applications with a large volume of onchain compute.
One notable feature of Boss Chain is its market interoperability, allowing players on different chains to trade with each other. Users can already sign up to migrate to Boss Chain, and as an incentive, Proof of Play is offering exclusive skins and an achievement for those who make the switch.
This announcement by Proof of Play marks a significant step forward in the world of blockchain gaming. By addressing the issue of scalability through the implementation of interconnected chains, Proof of Play is paving the way for the future of onchain gaming and other ambitious decentralized applications. The launch of Boss Chain is eagerly awaited by gaming enthusiasts and industry experts alike, as it promises to provide a seamless and immersive gaming experience while supporting the growth and expansion of Apex and Pirate Nation.
