Kronoverse is the creator of the skill-based strategic game CryptoFights, which “utilizes the Kronoverse platform which replaces the games networking layer from traditional cloud servers to the BSV blockchain. This unlocks massive benefits for gaming by giving the eSports ecosystem a transparent and fair way to have game integrity.” CryptoFights is scheduled to have an open beta launch in Q1 2020.
Kronoverse uses blockchain technology on its platform to decentralize the network operations while creating a transparent multiverse system to make the game more efficient and more enjoyable for users. The platform makes it easier to monetize games by integrating several features, such as wagering, in-game advertising, and item transfer fees.
