London, United Kingdom, March 3rd, 2025, Chainwire
Metacade, the leading onchain gaming ecosystem on Base, has announced a strategic partnership with Base, an Ethereum Layer 2 network developed by Coinbase, and Coinbase itself. This collaboration introduces a Layer 3 (L3) Appchain, designed to enhance scalability, reduce costs, and increase efficiency for onchain gaming.
Built on Base’s cutting-edge infrastructure, the Metacade Appchain aims to redefine onchain gaming by leveraging L3 technology to enable faster transactions, lower gas fees, and seamless scalability, accelerating adoption across the industry.
“Being chosen by Base and Coinbase to launch our own Appchain is a game-changing moment for Metacade,” said Russell Bennett, CEO of Metacade. “This innovation unlocks limitless potential—empowering game studios, enhancing $MCADE utility, and driving onchain adoption at scale. Together, we’re making gaming a key force in Base’s mission to bring millions onchain.”
The Metacade Appchain offers several advantages for game studios and developers, including:
- Faster Transactions: L3 architecture ensures seamless, lag-free gaming experiences.
- Lower Costs: Reduced gas fees free up resources for innovation and player rewards.
- Scalability: Supports thousands of transactions per second, enabling large-scale games.
Metacade’s soon-to-launch Tournament v2 platform will further drive engagement by allowing any Base token to be integrated instantly, without coding. By enabling tokens as native prize pools in live tournaments, Metacade provides a scalable way for communities to boost participation and incentivize growth.
With 25 ready-to-play games, the tournament platform simplifies hosting, making it accessible for both meme communities and emerging projects. Users can:
- Choose a game
- Set the prize pool
- Schedule the event
- Invite participants
This consumer-friendly approach aligns with Base’s mission to onboard millions onchain through accessible and engaging applications.
The partnership also strengthens the long-term value of the $MCADE token through:
- Token Burns: Every transaction reduces circulating supply, increasing scarcity.
- Gas Token Utility: $MCADE fuels the Appchain, driving ongoing demand.
- Growth Potential: Backed by Base and Coinbase, Metacade gains credibility and support to mobilize gaming studios onchain.
