Tested CROSS public chain: A lifesaver for game developers or a new sickle for suckers?
Written in advance
After three years in the mixed-chain gaming circle, I've been cut by ETH's gas fees and thrown up by BSC's crashes. I heard that CROSS created a "modular chain game dedicated chain", and as an old sucker, I directly rushed to the Gate Alpha test, and the result... is really great!
1. Modularization is not a gimmick; it is a quick remedy for developers.
Last month, I helped a friend with a blockchain game demo and it cost 200 dollars to deploy an NFT item contract on Polygon, with players having to pay for Gas to claim items. I was shocked after switching to CROSS:
- **The execution layer is self-managed**: Built a dedicated chain using Cosmos SDK, with TPS adjusted to 5000+, and cost reduced to zero;
- **Data Layer Offloading**: Game logs are handed over to the DA layer for processing, storage costs are 90% cheaper than Solana, and the money saved by the team is all invested in art.
- **Cross-chain smoothness is outrageous**: Players can buy NFTs on Arbitrum and switch to our game to fight in 3 seconds, no need to click on the bridge (*Note: Tested with Gate wallet auto-crossing*)
**→ Speak human language**: In the past, there were 3 out of 10 people in the development team working on underlying operations, but now they have all gone to focus on gameplay design!
2. Dual Token Mechanism: Suckers no longer have to be the bag holders.
I've seen too many chain games blow up: project parties aggressively pulling tokens → players taking over → economic collapse → the three-piece set of running away. CROSS has created an anti-routine design:
- **$CROSS only does dirty and tiring work**: Node staking, governance voting, inter-chain communication all use it, with a 0.5% fee burned from each game transaction (deflationary proof);
- **In-game Token Disabled**: All item transactions must be settled in USDC. Did the price of the coin plummet? Your dragon-slaying sword is still worth 50U!
**→ Personal Tested Anti-Cutting Guide**: Earned points by trading CROSS on Gate Alpha, directly exchanged for a whitelist of a certain chain game, and obtained an NFT worth 2K dollars at zero cost—this is a healthy ecosystem!
3. Players are ecstatic: Web3 games are not anti-human for the first time
As a veteran of making money in blockchain games, the fear of being controlled by mnemonic phrases finally comes to an end:
1. **Gas fees ignored**: Yesterday, I ran dungeons 107 times in the CROSS chain game, and the Gas cost was approximately half a pack of spicy strips;
2. **Gate Points in Real Money**: Accumulated Alpha points from trading CROSS on Gate, got 3 game beta testing qualifications for free (*Project team's Discord price is 99 USD*);
3. **Email login is crazy**: Register directly with Gmail and start playing, mnemonic phrase? Not existing!
To speak some hard truths
The CROSS operation this time can be described as precise:
- **Liberate developers**: Modularization allows small teams to create AAA blockchain games;
- **Equip players with armor**: The dual-token design locks speculative risks in the mining pool;
- **Empowering the Exchange**: Gate's Alpha points connect the "trading-gaming" dual-kill gameplay.
**The gaming blockchain has been suffering from poor public chains for a long time, this time I stand with CROSS!**
