MoveChess's vision is to become a robust Chess platform on Web3, reaching out to users from Web2, providing them with comprehensive knowledge about Web3, and seamlessly transitioning them into the Web3 space.
While it's undeniable the entire crypto industry has seen unprecedented growth and adoption over the last few years, this explosive growth has been fraught with challenges. The “Gold Rush'' mentality that has defined the space has led to a toxic environment rife with scams and bad actors. Overall trust in Web3 is at its lowest point in years and many are turning away from the technology altogether. If the Web3 space wants to overcome this and achieve its full potential a major paradigm shift is required.
At MoveLabs we see this critical juncture as a unique opportunity to establish a foothold and redefine the space. Our Web3 business model offers a distinct competitive edge over traditional Web2 platforms in the realm of abstract strategy games. It also gives us the opportunity to emphasize the true potential of blockchain technology. The flexibility of the model means it can easily be adapted to many different games allowing us to establish both a Web3 gaming marketplace along with a robust portfolio of MoveLabs original games.
Our flagship project, MoveChess, is a perfect example of the flexibility and freedom our approach will offer. By taking a wildly popular game like chess and combining it with the latest in blockchain technology, a beautiful synergy emerges. One feature made possible by this combination our team is very excited about is a trustless skill based wagering system we have dubbed: Monetized Chess Matches (MCM’s). This MCM system will be at the core of the Phase 2 MoveLabs economy, as well as a staple of daily gameplay featuring PVP game options as well as regular tournaments.
Our Achievement: Web3 Village Hackathon 2023 Winner
The feature we will develop for this Hackathon is as follows: When participating in MoveChess, users can use their $AZERO to place bets between two parties. The winner will receive the $AZERO rewards initially wagered by the losing side.
In the future, we will also develop features to break down barriers between Web2 and Web3 users. This may include allowing Web2 users to log in with Facebook, Google, or Twitter to play with users using Web3 and Web3 Wallets.
