Fyx Gaming’s Adam Kling talks about fixing blockchain gaming on the CoinGeek Weekly Livestream

That Bitcoin SV is undoubtedly the only blockchain that can scale unlimitedly to meet business needs is not in doubt, but if ever it was, CryptoFights proved it beyond doubt. The game has processed more daily transactions than the entire blockchain ecosystem, from Ethereum and Solana to BTC and Cardano, combined on many days this year. Adam Kling, Fyx Gaming CEO, was on the CoinGeek Weekly Livestream this week to talk about the blockchain game and everything else in the sector.

CryptoFights has grown over the years and is today synonymous with the growth that the Bitcoin SV ecosystem has experienced in recent years. But as Kling told host Kurt Wuckert Jr., it was terrifying when he decided to migrate from Ethereum to BSV. Back then, the BSV ecosystem wasn’t as big, and choosing it over Ethereum looked like a risky decision. Today, Kling is grateful that he was brave enough to take the leap.

Blockchain games have been around for a number of years. However, it feels like it’s just getting started. In the past, developers cared little about making games that actually work, and that can scale to accommodate millions.

“The game on the chain was very surface level. There’s a party going on, who cares about something that works?” Kling said.

That has changed in the last couple of years, with games like CryptoFights showing the world that a game can be completely on-chain and still scale seamlessly.

“We are ahead of the curve, and not just us [CryptoFights] but the entire BSV ecosystem,” noted Kling.

BSV has for a long time been the black sheep of the blockchain family and has been attacked mercilessly from all angles. Although painful, Kling believes this has been a blessing in disguise. It has allowed the ecosystem to focus on creating applications that work, not on hype or selling tokens.

CryptoFights has become the biggest game in the BSV ecosystem. With that has come the question of whether to license its technology to larger gaming companies or scale to become a giant in the industry itself. As Kling revealed, he leans towards the former. Since Fyx Gaming is one of the earliest players, it has had to build most of the infrastructure needed from scratch.

“…when they [gaming giants] have a solution, I want to be ‘how’ they can put a game on the chain,” he said.

For now, the company is focusing on making the gaming experience seamless for users. Kling revealed that he had expanded his team recently, bringing in new faces who previously worked at Ubisoft, the French giant behind Assassin’s Creed.

In a few months, “it’s going to be completely different. What you see now on CryptoFights is like a kitten compared to how massive the game is going to feel after this.”

Fyx Gaming is also “looking to start dabbling with its token marketplace.”

While most blockchain games struggle to attract an audience, Kling’s problem is unique – CryptoFights has more users than it can handle sometimes. Currently, Kling is focused on increasing the number of people who can play at once, revealing that the game sometimes has hundreds of people in the waiting room waiting for their turn to join the fun.

Aside from his own company, Kling is a big fan of TokenSwap, a platform that has brought DeFi to BSV. He also praised Xiaohui Liu and his team at sCrypt for their good work in pushing Bitcoin forward while paying special tribute to Michal Scislowski and his team at Soundoshi.

Kling believes that while the BSV ecosystem is growing, it still has a long way to go. The community needs to grow much more, which will allow entrepreneurs in the ecosystem to get the same benefits their peers in the other blockchain ecosystem have. As an illustration, he revealed that his company would have held a token sale at a BSV launch pad if enough companies went this route.
