SIDUS HEROES Joins Forces with ZK-Based Partisia Blockchain for Enhanced Gaming Experience

SIDUS HEROES, the first-ever WebGL, AAA-level, Play-to-Earn, NFT, and MMORPG game today announced a partnership with Partisia Blockchain, a zero-knowledge (ZK) Layer 1 blockchain protocol.

SIDUS HEROES Partners with Partisia Blockchain

The infamous blockchain trilemma of scalability, security, and decentralization seems to be nearing its final days with the launch of ZK-based blockchain protocols.

Accordingly, SIDUS HEROES, a blockchain game set in a space metaverse today announced its alliance with the next-generation ZK-based Layer 1 blockchain Partisia Blockchain.

For the uninitiated, Partisia Blockchain is a Web3-native, public, scalable blockchain that leverages zero-knowledge proofs to enable fast, feasible, and privacy-preserving transactions.

Essentially, Partisia Blockchain merges blockchain technology and ZK computations to develop a more secured protocol with a transaction finality as low as 0.5 seconds.

Partisia Blockchain can be leveraged to power a wide array of decentralized applications and protocols in the digital assets space such as DeFi, crypto wallets, NFTs, and the like.

Exploring Different forms of Cooperation

Notably, both SIDUS HEROES and Partisia Blockchain are taking their first strides toward launching the beta versions of their respective products. The partnership will serve as an opportunity for the two projects to test out different forms of cooperation.

Commenting on the development, Dan Khomenko, CEO of SIDUS HEROES, said:

“The SIDUS HEROES team is excited to witness and make a contribution to the development of Partisia Blockchain’s infrastructure and to test its capabilities in practice. We see great potential in in-game transactions being finalized in 500 millisecond time frames and adding an extra layer of security to them. We will maintain strong ties with the Partisia Blockchain team and are excited to see where this partnership will take us!”

Similar sentiments were echoed by Brian Gallagher, Co-founder of Partisia Blockchain.

He noted:

“Where blockchain games such as SIDUS HEROES are concerned, speed and finality are extremely important since they are engaged in minting hundreds and thousands of in-game NFTs. Even the execution of transfers between players’ accounts are dependent on these factors.”

Adding:

“The Ethereum mainnet’s infrastructure doesn’t currently serve this market and we couldn’t be more thrilled about getting hands-on with SIDUS, digging in and finding out where we can be most helpful in the long run. This applies not only to SIDUS but to the whole P2E blockchain gaming ecosystem in general.”

With the current boom in Play-to-Earn gaming, SIDUS HEROES is poised to provide an immersive and exciting gaming experience to its users. The game offers multiple gaming scenarios such as interstellar exploration, battles, settlements and political, social and economic development.

SIDUS HEROES has a closed economic system based on a limited emission of resources. The blockchain-powered game taps the Play-to-Earn model for all its in-game items and uses a two-token system.
