Gaming-focused layer 1 blockchain Worldwide Asset Exchange (WAX), the 10th largest blockchain by activity, has signed an agreement to use Amazon Web Services (AWS) and integrate its network into the Amazon Managed Blockchain (AMB) service. The AMB service is designed to help developers create decentralized applications on both private and public blockchains. With AMB integration, WAX developers will be able to deploy nodes through the AWS console and use those nodes to build on the WAX blockchain.
The WAX blockchain’s native token is up more than 20% in a day, according to CoinDesk. The CoinDesk 20 Index, an overall measure of the crypto market, gained 1.6%. Following this announcement, WAX rose another 5.6% before falling back to $0.111. According to WAX CTO, the new partnership between WAX and Amazon Web Services is an important step towards mass adoption of Web3.
In the last 30 days, WAX has facilitated 141 million transactions with 666,000 unique active wallets, according to Dappradar. The network’s platform hosts 160 Web3 games, including Brawlers, a collectible card game that became part of Amazon Prime Gaming along with games like Apex Legends and Call of Duty.
