1/ Huge news for both the #blockchain and #gaming industries: @avalancheavax is partnering with one of the largest esports organizations in the world, @TSM.
2/This partnership marks a significant milestone for both industries and is a major win for #AVAX as a blockchain technology. #TSM is an absolute titan in the #esports world, with a massive following and a long list of achievements across various esports titles.
3/ For context: LSC is the 3rd most popular professional sports league in the US, behind the NFL and NBA. TSM's audience in 2021 reached approximately 105k peak concurrent viewers on Twitch with a whopping total of 201M hours watched.
4/ Okay, so why #AVAX ?
One rational on why #TSM #ChoseAvalanche is its customizability via #Subnets. This allows game developers to build their own custom blockchains on top of Avalanche, which provides greater control over things like transaction fees, speed, and security.
5/ This partnership is also a product of the leadership of @EdC, the head of gaming here at Ava Labs
Ed played a pivotal role in TSM recognizing Avalanche as a chain for gaming, with his wealth of experience he brings from his time at @EA where he worked with @PlayApex and #FIFA
6/ But it's not just about leadership - Ava Labs also has a world-class engineering, product, and legal team who have walked TSM along their way in scoping out their development and legal needs.
7/ This has allowed them to tailor their blockchain to the specific requirements of gaming, including fast transactions, low fees and a streamlined wallet solution via @CoreApp.
8/ The partnership with TSM is a massive win for Avalanche, not only because of TSM's reputation and influence in the esports world but also because it highlights just how much potential there is for blockchain technology in gaming.
9/ The fact that users will soon be able to buy, trade, and sell in-game digital assets on the blockchain, will be a giant leap in legitimizing how blockchain can enable a whole new tech layer for gaming. #crypto #Blitzgg #partnership #innovation #futuretech #esports @riotgames
