Does a Web3 Game need a 'Portal' instead of a dozen different wallets?

What is Portal that has suddenly become popular online recently? In simple terms, it is a multi-chain gaming ecosystem aimed at connecting all Web3 games together through a single interface.

The problem Portal wants to solve

Currently, if you want to play a game on Polygon, then switch to Arbitrum to play another game, you must:

  • Turn off this wallet, turn on another wallet
  • Or suffer with bridge software
  • Buy tokens for each individual chain
  • Worries about gas fee

Portal says: “Folks, I'll handle this for you.”

Mechanism of Action

Portal built on LayerZero (multi-chain protocol). Token $PORTAL is a cross-chain token, not dependent on any specific chain. You create a unique account (can even use Twitter/Discord to login), then:

Play games on any chain without needing:

  • Transfer the string dozens of times
  • Purchase tokens separately for each chain
  • Confused with different UIs

In essence, the Portal creates a “home-cooked meal” that helps you easily transition to various “restaurants” (different games).

What is the $PORTAL token used for?

  • In-game trading: Use in the game to buy items
  • Cross-chain fees: Payment of transaction fees between chains
  • Staking: Stake to access hot NFTs/tokens from Portal Launchpad
  • Node: Buy a Portal node to participate in network validation
  • Network consensus: Stake into nodes to increase credibility.

Why is it important?

A few years ago, “bringing mainstream gamers to Web3” was the goal of every blockchain game project, but most failed due to high complexity. Portal's approach: minimizing friction, making Web3 gaming as… normal as playing regular games.

Bottom line: If you're tired of managing 10 different wallets to play games, Portal is the candidate solution.
