What is Ancient8 Chain?

Ancient8 Chain is a gaming, community-focused Ethereum Layer 2 platform powered by the OP Stack and powered by Celestia, built to solve the scalability and adoption challenges faced by web3 games and consumer DApps. Taking advantage of Optimism and Celestia, Ancient8 Chain focuses on speed, savings and providing developers with cutting-edge technology, especially for blockchain game development.

Ancient8 Chain is a blockchain built on the latest version of the OP Stack toolkit, which provides the basic module layers that make up the blockchain such as:

• Data Availability,

• Sequencing,

• Derivation,

• Execution,

• Governance Layer.

Additionally, Ancient8 integrates with Celestia to improve the data availability (DA) layer. This modular mechanism allows Ancient8 to easily make updates and changes as needed.

The central idea of ​​Ancient8 Chain is to empower the next 100 million citizens of the Metaverse.

Ancient8 Ecosystem

Ancient8 - is not just a few games or platforms, it's an entire ecosystem, which we'll talk about in more detail now.

There are 3 main group of projects in ecosystem:

• Growth Layer (Tools)

• Gaming

• Other Protocols

The main members of the first group (Growth Layer):

• Dojo Marketplace — decentralized platform for exchanging gaming assets.

• Space3 — tools for creating virtual spaces that empower developers.

• Ancient8 Gaming — support for developers in creating and promoting games on the blockchain, including financing and technical support.

• ReneVerse — NFT gaming platform emphasizing asset ownership and portability.

• A8ID — identity system for managing digital identity and assets across games (coming soon).

Developers use A8 Chain infrastructure to:

1. build games,

2. then promote/open for sale NFT sets on Dojo,

3. publish games through Space3,

4. enhance user identity with A8ID,

5. build game community connections players through A8 Gaming,

6. generate more revenue with in-game advertising from ReneVerse.

This is how the sequence of application of all the projects listed above from the first group may look like.
