According to the press release, the company believes in the potential of the blockchain gaming space. This idea has led to the launch of a digital non-custodial wallet optimized for gaming. A non-custodial wallet ensures the safety of a user’s cryptocurrency by giving them unique control over private keys.
Play3, the SEA-based Web3 GameFi platform, acquired a strategic stake in Me3 last month to expand in the Web3 gaming area. EVOS Esports is a new partner for Me3 that garners mobile teams in games such as Mobile Legends, Free Fire, PUBG Mobile, Realm of Valor, and League of Legends: Wild Rift.
Me3’s Co-Founder Matthew Ainscow commented on the company’s strategy for the future:
“Our strategy is simple. Be an enabler by providing a set of tools that makes user acquisition simple for Web2 properties. Their users don’t have time to figure out cryptic concepts such as “wrapped ether” or “slippage” just to play a game. We simply take the friction and learning curve out of the equation.”
Hong Loon Gan, Co-Founder of Me3, shared thoughts about blockchain gaming:
“People are realizing that gaming may be the biggest real-world application for blockchain technology. Persistent worlds, item portability, and digital scarcity make a step change in the gaming environment and a consumer’s ability to be immersed in the games.”
Me3 states that this wallet will be an all-in-one solution, especially for users that are new to the Web3 space. The company shares that Me3 is designed for Web2 users, giving them a familiar experience that they would typically have in Web2 without the need to understand the complex structure of Web3.
