For gaming, Klaytn partners with Wemade’s partner, Wemade Tree. The company aims to connect Wemade’s market-proven popular game contents, including its diverse portfolio of IPs, with blockchain technology. The application of blockchain is targeted at redesigning in-game contents to work smoothly with the technology, and less focused on digital item trade. By working together with Klaytn, Wemade Tree will leverage the partnership to build a blockchain game ecosystem, while internally progressing its efforts to solve scalability and speed challenges.

From content industry, Piction Network is participating. As the next generation digital contents ecosystem that directly connects users with creators via blockchain-based web comics and web novels, Piction Network will first be applied to the webtoon platform Battle Comics. Serving over a million active users with a collection of a thousand IP’s, the platform will play a vital role in expanding Klaytn’s user base.
