SINGAPORE –News Live– Oasys
SINGAPORE – Media OutReach – 7 April 2023 – Oasys, a game-optimized blockchain, today announced that MIXI, Inc. (MIXI), Japan’s leading media powerhouse, has officially joined as the latest node validator on the blockchain’s network. The partnership is also expected to lay the foundations for further cooperation between the two organisations.
MIXI is known for its talented entertainment and sports offerings, including social network mixi, mobile game Monster Strike, which has grossed more than $9 billion since its launch in 2013, and their latest release TIPSTAR, a sports betting service. MIXI is now turning to Web3, primarily through DAZN MOMENTS, a sports-focused NFT marketplace, to enable consumers to interact and explore the digital world.
MIXI joins Japanese technology and telecommunications conglomerates SoftBank and KDDI, as well as one of the largest gaming companies, Nexon, as Oasys’ second group of validators announced this year, bringing the total number of Oasys Validators to 25. With extensive support from institutions, confirmed Oasys’ commitment to expanding its ecosystem and accelerating mass adoption of Web3 games, supported by a high-speed and stable architecture.
Yuko Nemoto, Senior Corporate Officer, Digital Entertainment Business Operations, MIXI, said: MIXI aims to enrich the connections between people by providing communication services, such as the social media platform “mixi”, and bringing close friends and families together with our smartphone game “Monster Strike”. Through our participation as a validator for Oasys, which creates new user experiences with its unique approach, we hope to improve existing communication channels and create captivating content for our user base.
Daiki Moriyama, Director, Oasyssaid: “The inclusion of MIXI, the company behind the blockbuster title Monster Strike that brought mobile gaming to mass adoption, as our validator is important for Oasys as we partner to enable the mass adoption of blockchain gaming. We believe this opens the door for many more collaborations to come, be it working with our Genesis Council or creating game content, and ultimately making significant strides to pioneer the future of blockchain gaming.
In just over a year since its formation, Oasys revolutionized the way players and developers create and interact on the blockchain. It recently achieved full decentralization with its original OAS token now approved for listing in both South Korea and Japan, and launched its mainnet blockchain protocol with over a dozen playable games available to the community. Oasys continues to advance its mission to bring blockchain gaming to the world, by encouraging mainstream adoption of blockchain technology.
