Community

Blockchain-based gaming is a key pillar of Web3 innovation, allowing players to enjoy a whole new range of community-driven gaming experiences that leverage decentralized features such as tokenization of in-game assets, NFT marketplaces, crypto token rewards, and unprecedented interactivity. Aethir is dedicated to supporting Web3 gaming innovators and infrastructure providers who strive to create new gaming tools that developers can leverage to launch groundbreaking Web3 games. We welcome Unite to the rapidly growing Aethir ecosystem as a valued gaming partner focused on community-driven multiplayer experiences, leveraging Web3 technology. Unite is the first Layer 3 blockchain solution for Mass-Market Mobile Games, built using the Optimism Stack on the Base Layer 2 network. The Unite SDKs enable mobile game developers to incorporate Web3 functionality seamlessly, making it easier for mobile gamers to access Web3 and its benefits. Unite’s mobile gaming ecosystem has incredible momentum, with millions of downloads and hundreds of thousands of monthly active users.

Together with Aethir, Unite will enhance its decentralized cloud infrastructure, ensuring seamless and scalable gaming experiences. Built on Base, Unite is a new standard for Web3 mobile gaming. It's a mobile gaming infrastructure designed to smoothly onboard mobile game players through a streamlined blockchain network. Unite's mission is to create never-before-seen player experiences with in-game earning capabilities. Unite fosters a fully decentralized ecosystem that prioritizes trust and transparency. It empowers the gaming industry with a seamless mobile gaming UX and an abstracted wallet and account system for players.

Aethir's decentralized cloud computing infrastructure specializes in supporting gaming and AI use cases, which makes it an ideal match for Unite's ambitious blockchain gaming platform. Unite's customizable mobile wallet SKD and mobile gaming SDK enable gaming studios to easily build Web3 mobile games for Apple and Google Play App Stores and support essential development frameworks, such as Flutter, React Native, Unity, and HTML5. With Aethir as its cloud computing provider, the Unite blockchain has a trustworthy, streamlined, and highly scalable supply of GPU computing power. The Aethir DePIN stack provides flawless GPU processing services regardless of end-user location because Aethir's network is globally distributed in numerous locations, which gives Aethir a competitive edge over centralized cloud providers.

Gaming presents an enormous market opportunity for Aethir’s cloud solutions, and mobile is the gaming industry’s dominant platform, which is the strategic focus for Unite. By partnering with Unite, Aethir can accelerate its go-to-market, bringing its solution to more developers and bringing Web3 mobile gaming to more players by making games more accessible globally.

Decentralization allows Aethir to pool processing power from multiple GPU Containers simultaneously and channel the computing power to end-users, which is beneficial for both developers and cloud gamers, who can enjoy quality gaming regardless of their device’s hardware specifications. A network of 91,000 Checker Nodes is responsible for ensuring all GPU Containers in Aethir's network provide optimal service quality at all times. The network is entirely community-owned and distributed among 22,000 community members, which aligns perfectly with Unite's dedication to community-driven Web3 gaming projects. 

While Unite brings top-quality Web3 gaming expertise to our partnership, Aethir provides decentralized cloud computing resources. Together, we are creating a supercharged Web3 game development ecosystem that allows developers to seamlessly launch blockchain gaming titles for smartphones.
