Bluzelle Upgrades to Stargate, Revolutionizing Decentralized Storage in Gaming

In the world of gaming, data storage is vital. Players rely on a secure and reliable system, from game saves to in-game assets, to store their progress and valuables. However, the traditional centralized storage systems used by the gaming industry have limitations regarding reliability, security, and control. With the rise of Web3 and blockchain technology, a new era of decentralized storage has begun, giving gamers more control over and security for their gaming assets.

Bluzelle’s recent upgrade to Stargate, the latest version of Cosmos, brings a new wave of features to users and developers, including a decentralized storage layer that boosts the capabilities of InterPlanetary File System (IPFS}. With this upgrade, Bluzelle offers a more reliable and redundant storage solution for Web3 gamers, providing them with the confidence that their gaming assets are safe and secure.

New Era of Control, Security, and Reliability for Web3 Gamers

Decentralized storage in gaming brings several benefits. Firstly, it gives players complete control over their data, with no centralized authority having access to their information. This gives gamers the power to own and control their digital assets, making the game more player-driven.

Additionally, decentralized storage is more secure, with data being stored across a network of nodes, making it more resistant to data breaches and hacking attempts. Lastly, decentralized storage is a more reliable and redundant solution that ensures data can always be accessed and retrieved, even if one node fails.

The future of gaming is decentralized, and Bluzelle’s upgrade to Stargate sets the stage for the next generation of Web3 gaming. With the addition of a decentralized storage layer, Web3 gaming becomes more player-driven, secure, and reliable. Players can now enjoy their favorite games with the confidence that their gaming assets are safe and that they are in control.

Collaboration with Cosmos to Revolutionize Blockchain Gaming

Bluzelle’s upgrade to Stargate is a big step forward for the Web3 gaming industry because it places decentralized storage in the spotlight. With player control, security, and reliability benefits, Web3 gaming is poised for growth and success in the coming years.

The Web3 gaming market is a quickly expanding sector that aims to introduce blockchain technology’s decentralized and trustless principles to the gaming industry. Web3 gaming seeks to give players more transparency, security, and ownership by leveraging blockchain. Even though the Web3 gaming ecosystem is still in its infancy, it has already garnered significant interest from game creators, gamers, and venture capitalists. In 2022, Web3 gaming projects received the lion’s share of the industry’s funding. 62% of all Web3 VC dollars are being invested in the gaming industry, according to a report by the Metaverse Post. The entire venture capital invested into gaming firms in 2022 was about $4.49 billion, a considerable sum compared to the number of gamers.

This reflects how much confidence VC firms have in the Web3 gaming industry. It’s worth noting, meanwhile, that only four significant venture funds account for most of Web3’s funding. In order, we have Paradigm ($2.5 billion), a16z ($2.2 billion), HiveMind ($1.5 billion), and Binance Labs ($1 billion).

  • Alliance of 314: The X314 contract is suspected to have a hidden additional issuance switch, developers should pay attention to verification

    Alliance of 314 issued a statement claiming that the contract of a certain 314 project has not been open-sourced on the blockchain. As for whether other platforms have open-sourced their contracts, there is a misconception that open-sourcing on other platforms is self-submitted and does not necessarily mean that the contract is deployed on the chain, so there may be unknown hidden issuance. Additionally, the said 314 project announced that it will soon launch a trading platform, and the first requirement for logging into a centralized exchange is to open-source the contract. Open-sourcing is the first thing that any project should do to ensure investor confidence. Referring to the open-sourcing of the 0.1, 0.5, and 0.9 versions before, it can be concluded that there is hidden code in the X314 contract, and therefore it cannot be open-sourced out of fear. The biggest risk warning: after decompiling and querying ethervm, it is highly suspected that a certain 314 has a hidden issuance switch to increase mining pool output and arbitrage. The field is as follows: 0x40c10f19mint(address,uint256). The risk alert level for this switch is the highest level, and generally, ordinary developers do not set this switch.
