SINGAPORE, 26 APRIL 2024 - Mon Protocol, the publishing protocol for blockchain-native games and IPs, has officially announced it will bring its game and IP publishing support to the Solana ecosystem.
Mon Protocol will support projects with marketing campaigns and exposure to its community. This preferential community access will include the protocol’s selection process, which can greenlight games into becoming official partners of Mon, adding support to their development. With the help of the Mon team, partners, and games, these vetted projects will gain accelerated social awareness and maximize adoption. This stands to benefit individual projects and the entire Solana ecosystem.
“Working with teams in the Solana ecosystem will allow us to reach some of the largest user bases in web3, deliver high quality projects and maximize their potential,” said Giulio Xiloyannis, co-founder of Mon Protocol. “The web3 gaming space grows stronger with this connection. Many high quality games and IPs have already found success in Solana. A strong use case is Nyan Heroes, a Solana based Mech Shooter and one of MON’s earliest partners. Now one of the most wishlisted games on the Epic Games Store. We want to accelerate their progress through our support.”
Launched in 2020, Solana is one of the top decentralized blockchains, with millions of users interacting regularly. One of the biggest advantages of using the Solana chain is its fast processing times, with 400 millisecond block times, making it easier and cheaper to transact. This makes it so that projects on Solana are scalable, capable of completing thousands of transactions per second, along with a proof of stake network that minimizes environmental impact.
Solana has a strong web3 gaming presence, with ecosystem teams like Genopets, Star Atlas, and Nyan Heroes, among others.
Solana is the latest network supported by Mon Protocol, in addition to Seedify, Immutable, and Aptos.
Mon Protocol aims to be the leading publisher of blockchain-native IPs and gamers. Mon Protocol launched with the Pixelmon gaming IP as its founding partner and has since built a large community of web3-savvy gamers and fans. Its platform enables blockchain-native projects to reach larger bases of gamers and fans while building stronger IPs by rewarding loyal communities and including them in the IP’s long-term success through fractionalized ownership.
Mon Protocol’s investors include some of the most prominent VCs and builders in the web3 gaming industry, such as the Inevitable Gaming Fund, Foresight Ventures, Delphi Ventures and The Spartan Group, as well as angel investors and founders such as Gabby Dizon of Yield Guild Games (YGG) and Ray Chan of 9GAG.
