Pixelverse Has 13 Million Active Users
The transformation of Pixelverse’s Web3 gaming ecosystem focuses on leveraging the attention economy to create highly engaging experiences. Ryan You, partner and co-head of gaming at Galaxy Interactive, praised their ability to effectively manage both the economy and their community. You highlighted that the company has successfully addressed the critical challenge of disseminating their visionary concepts and products, greatly driving Web3 adoption around the TON ecosystem and attracting millions of players through their games and third-party titles on their platform.
Pixelverse has managed to integrate “tap-to-earn” mechanics with social features in their games, which has allowed millions of players to join mobile games featuring popular characters from both crypto and Web2 IPs. This approach has caught the attention of venture capitalists keen on tapping into the growing interest in the TON ecosystem.
This new funding will support Pixelverse’s growth as it prepares for its token generation event (TGE), scheduled for this summer. With the financial boost, the platform will continue to lead the industry and attract a massive audience to the Telegram ecosystem.
