PlayFi’s upcoming node sale is scheduled for late 2024, but the impressive performance of the testnet with over 70,000 transactions in just one week has created a sense of urgency for node activation.
PlayFi is a groundbreaking AI and data platform that enables developers to integrate Web3 capabilities into real-time content. The protocol facilitates the connection between content and actionable data, providing an infrastructure that enables studios and developers to effortlessly integrate blockchain primitives into games, streams, sports, and entertainment content. PlayFi’s AI models extract data from content in real-time, ensure its authenticity, and store it in a reliable data edge network.
The Genesis Node Sale is a major step towards achieving PlayFi’s goal of revolutionizing smart content. The nodes power PlayFi’s protocol, and with their testnet already handling significant traffic, it’s now time to launch their decentralized data layer.
Genesis Node Features:
- All PlayFi node licenses cost $400, 20% cheaper than the base price at the public sale later this year.
- All Genesis node operators will be rewarded with the amount they spend on the node in $PLAY token.
- All Genesis node runners will receive a guaranteed airdrop boost of 2,500 points, which can be tripled by simply joining the PlayFi Discord.
- In the lead-up to the official node sale, community members can participate in tasks via Discord and Twitter to earn a Genesis Role and maximize their airdrop points.
- Once the Genesis Sale ends, Explorer Nodes will be available for a limited time at a price of $500 and come with their own benefits.
“Over 50% of the world’s internet traffic is people watching and playing content. At PlayFi, we are committed to supporting developers and users through partnerships with industry leaders while rewarding our early backers,” says Ben Beath, founder of PlayFi. “One of our top priorities is to ensure users feel safe, comfortable and confident supporting our network, knowing they will be rewarded for being early adopters of PlayFi’s technology.”
 PlayFi’s modular nodes are responsible for powering the entire PlayFi protocol, handling everything from advanced AI processing to data storage. Each node is equipped with four distinct modules – Artificial Intelligence, Coordination, Zero Knowledge, and Storage – that operators can customize to their liking to improve both functionality and yield potential. To maintain a truly decentralized protocol, a portion of the total $PLAY supply, namely 20%, has been reserved for rewarding node operators.
In addition, PlayFi has established strategic partnerships with notable players in the Web3 space, including Aethir, MultiversX, and Polygon. These alliances strengthen PlayFi’s commitment to its community and cutting-edge technology that combines AI and Web3.
“Our goal is to increase network usage by demonstrating clear benefits to our node operators and sustain a massive and rewarding decentralized network for years to come. Ultimately, we want to create a future where content is not just consumed, but becomes interoperable with the power of Web3 primitives,” said Beath.
