GUStakes is the first decentralized application that allows for trustless peer-to-peer wagers to be placed on the NFT card game Gods Unchained. GUStakes leverages Polygon’s economical transactions to launch multiple contracts that are interlaced with one another in order to utilize the game’s API as the decision-making oracle for the dApp.
GUStake’s advantages to building on Polygon
Engineering an automated marketplace that removes all human interaction from the decision-making process is a challenge of its own, and building it on the blockchain is an even bigger one. GUStakes was designed to be built on the most cost-efficient blockchains as it requires the deployment of multiple contracts in order for the dApp to operate normally. Thankfully, operational costs on Polygon are minimal which is why the network plays a major role in the success of the GUStakes platform. Gods Unchained relies on Ethereum mainnet to transfer funds and by utilizing Polygon, GUStakes is able to bridge the gap with low transaction fees and premium play-to-earn games. Furthermore, the massive ecosystem fostered by Polygon will be tremendously useful as $MATIC can be acquired fairly easily from over 100 exchanges (including all the popular CEXs) which can be directly staked on the platform as the waging medium.
Features: GUStakes enhancing play-to-earn games
GUStakes beta is currently featuring two different play modes for users to participate in: “Classic Stake” and “Arena Match”. These two unique modes allow for players to create a stake and challenge each other in a 1v1 format. Check out the video tutorial on how create stakes: https://youtu.be/siKTyIxR950
In future builds, GUStakes plans to launch two more game modes. One allows for organizers to create tournaments of up to 128 players and the second allows streamers on Twitch to place prop stakes live for their audience to participate in. Their anticipate that these two new game modes will create an exciting new landscape for the community.
Integrating web 3.0 with web2.0 is something that is rarely discussed in the cryptoverse so this feature should be one of the first-ever to synergize the two technologies together to enhance the users and the audience’s experience. These modes are scheduled to be launched by the end of this year in order to conclude the full beta experience of GUStakes.
