We unveiled our strategic move towards a gasless blockchain future by partnering with Polygon and integrating Celestia technology, setting the stage for a revolutionary modular blockchain system named Meowchain. This collaboration aims to support the anticipated scale of Wilder World, accommodating millions of players and billions of on-chain objects by creating a blockchain that is fast, lightweight, scalable, decentralized, and most importantly, operates without gas fees. The move to a gasless system is seen as a crucial step in enabling true internet scale for virtual worlds, allowing seamless and cost-effective interactions for users.

Meowchain, developed in partnership with our sister project ZERO, leverages Polygon's Chain Development Kit (CDK) for its deployment, providing a hyper-scalable, ultrafast Layer 2 solution for Ethereum with the distinctive feature of gasless transactions. This is achieved by shifting the responsibility of gas fees to application and protocol providers, such as Wilder World, which will cover these costs through our Metropolis revenue model. The use of Celestia's modular data availability network ensures Meowchain's scalability and the ability to support expressive on-chain gameplay through Data Availability Sampling (DAS), paving the way for a new era of blockchain-based gaming.

The partnership represents a significant technological advancement for the Web3 space, introducing ease of deployment, enhanced privacy and security, interoperability, and ecosystem connectivity. This aligns with our vision of making our simulation, starting with our flagship racing experience Midnight in Wiami, as accessible as possible while fostering a robust and vibrant digital economy. Meowchain's introduction is a testament to our innovative approach to overcoming traditional blockchain limitations, aiming for a decentralized and immersive metaverse experience free from the constraints of gas fees​​.

This collaboration is driven by a shared ambition to realize a scalable, persistent, single shard simulation, marking a significant leap towards achieving a model of multi-player scale concurrency and parallelism that is unprecedented in the digital realm. After a thorough vetting process of potential partners specialized in mass scale concurrency, we found MetaGravity's technology to be unparalleled, prompting this pivotal alliance.

MetaGravity brings to the table its HyperScale Engine, which promises to shatter existing limitations by supporting over 100,000 players on a single shard. This capacity, with plans to scale up to 1-10 million+ users, not only signifies a technological marvel but also reflects MetaGravity's proven expertise in tackling massive challenges in multiplayer architecture. Their previous accomplishments include contributing to Eve Online’s historic Battle of B-R5RB, underscoring their ability to manage large-scale player engagements effectively.

The partnership prioritizes developer experience, offering seamless integration with leading game engines, such as Unreal Engine, to empower creators with the tools needed for innovation. This collaboration sets forth our ambitious goals, including scaling player avatars to 30,000 concurrent players within Wiami, supporting high-speed driving experiences with over 200 networked vehicles, and bringing the vast cityscape of Wiami to life with unparalleled detail. By eliminating traditional barriers to scalability, we are not just enhancing the player experience; we are also championing sustainability in metaverse infrastructure, aiming to reduce cloud operating costs by up to 99%.

This alliance signifies not merely a technical integration but a shared vision for the future of web3 gaming, promising to create a metaverse that is both immersive and expansive, offering creative and explorative freedom to its community​​.
