GameStop signs a partnership with Immutable X. GameStop has just confirmed that its GameStop Wallet will be supported by the Ethereum layer 2 protocol, Immutable X. Users will now be able to access the GameStop Wallet on Immutable X L2.
Indeed, it will be integrated with the Immutable X Link infrastructure. Its NFT wallet will also be compatible with the entire protocol.
GameStop wallet integrated with Immutable X
With the GameStop wallet integration, users will be able to access their wallets on the Immutable X marketplace. They will also be able to do so from Immutable X partner platforms that support Link infrastructure.
The wallet can indeed be used as a connection and exchange option. Immutable X is known for not charging gas fees, but also for creating an environment known to be carbon neutral.
It's worth remembering that GameStop is currently working on integrating Immutable X directly into its wallet extension. In the meantime, users can already access all the features.
This, even if the flow is slightly improved for the shares of Immutable X. What is certain, however, is that the fully integrated portfolio will soon be available. Access to the Immutable X ecosystem will also be even more fluid.
GameStop gets into NFTs
On February 3, GameStop said it wanted to launch its own marketplace. This is through Immutable X, the Layer 2 Ethereum platform. It's done since the GameStop wallet is now integrated with Immutable X.
For users, this means that it is now possible to buy, sell, trade, and own digital assets. This, without having to pay high gas fees, is particularly the case on the main Ethereum blockchain.
The American game company also announced that a grant fund worth $100 million will be released. This is in order to support game developers on web 3 and above all, to improve web3 in general.
Why did you choose Immutable X?
If GameStop chose Immutable X, it's not by chance. Immutable X is indeed the Layer 2 leader for NFTs. Fully secured by Ethereum, it is currently the only platform that does not apply gas fees for NFT minting.
This year alone, over 30,000,000 NFTs have been minted, all for $0 gas fees. It is also greener than most platforms since it is 100% carbon neutral. Since the beginning of the year, nearly 2,400,000,000 kWh of energy have been saved.
Besides GameStop, the second layer solution of Ethereum (ETH), works with several other well-known companies. Among them, we find in particular Marvel, Disney, VeeFriends, and even Rarible.
Also, remember that GaryVee also supported Immutable X during the launch of its Book games for VeeFriends. With hundreds of transactions expected every day, they needed an optimal solution.
One, which would allow its users not to have to pay gas fees for each transaction. Choosing Immutable X thus allowed him to maximize his profits, but also those who were doing quick flipping with his NFTs.
A long-term vision
Coming back to GameStop, by choosing to list their NFTs with Immutable X, the company thus ensures instant distribution on several marketplaces. In addition, it offers its users full control of their assets.
Finally, by launching its own NFT wallet, GameStop should be able to compete with companies like MetaMask. As a reminder, the GameStop wallet is a self-deposited Ethereum wallet that, according to Immutable X, gives the “power to the players”.
This slogan has also been shared many times during the campaign praising the partnership between GameStop and Immutable X.
