Polkadot-Based GameFi Ajuna Network Using NFT Access Tokens To Build Communities

Cointime Official

Ajuna Network is a decentralized gaming platform that delivers real value to gamers, without compromising on gameplay. Ajuna Network integrates the leading game engines (Unity & Unreal) to the Polkadot ecosystem.

Ajuna Network is backed by Animoca Brands (leader in the Web3 Gaming space), OKX Blockdream, Fundamental Labs, CMCC, Master Ventures & many others.

Ajuna Network is a substrate based L1 blockchain built on Polkadots infrastructure, with the single purpose to serve the gaming industry. Ajuna Network has won both the Polkadot as well as the Kusama crowdloan and has therefore successfully obtained it’s parachains in the ecosystem. The $BAJU crowdloan has been the most successful Kusama crowdloan of 2022. Bajun Network is Ajuna’s canary network and its token is $BAJU. $BAJU is listed on MEXC (https://www.mexc.com/price/BAJU).  

The AJUN token acts as the Ajuna Network’s main utility token, enabling users to access its services and take part in staking and governance activities.

Additionally, owners of AJUN tokens have the power to shape the direction of the Ajuna Network and gaming franchises (one important component of their governance will be determining how Ajuna’s Treasury funds will be used).

Kusama’s corresponding token is called BAJU. The supply and distribution of BAJU’s tokens will be different from current token economic behavior in order to support the network’s distinct objectives and characteristics of fueling the engagement of the community.

Cedric Decoster (CEO & Founder of Ajuna Network) first started programming against the Bitcoin Protocol to encode logic in 2015. He is also the creator of Saberstone, one of the most famous AI simulators for Heartstone.

Cointime:What are your thoughts on GameFi or the trend of the Web3 game industry?

GameFi, as a subset of gaming and works by incorporating 3 key elements. Play-to-earn mechanics in a game, non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and decentralized exchanges. Creating mechanics by which players can earn NFTs, they can then either off-board to in marketplaces or trade their tokens on DEXs. Balancing these 3 key elements is both the challenge and opportunity. Up to now most implementations have been marred with either bad games, poorly designed economies and have attracted bad actors.

Overall, GameFi is an exciting new trend that has the potential to disrupt the traditional gaming industry by offering new incentives and new revenue streams to players, developers and creators alike. It also provides new ways for De-Fi protocols to reach a wider audience which can then fuel adoption.
