When you think about where maple story Was and what they were starting to do on Polygon and what they're now doing on Avalanche it's a pretty big deal so this Is of course next on the company that Produces maple story selects polygon Supernets for their Global hit maple Story this was back in March of 2023 Just so everybody's aware so that's a Year Later they were on and we've had polygon On the show talking about these uh Subnets of sort and these supernets I'm Just kind of curious if if this is the Reason they moved what was the issue why Were they mov moving so well we're going To find out couple of things that is Happening if you look at just where the Growth of Nexon is coming from you can Kind of see right here Korea is pretty Much one of the bigger Market well the Biggest market for them China 24% and You see the growth right here Asia Continues to be the market leader when It comes to gaming nft adoption and Really when you look at Avalanche this Could be one of these centers for where Their growth is going to come from I Want to also go over to a clip real Quick around what Nexon is listen in We're listed in Japan and within the Japan game industry Nexon ranked the Second in terms of uh market cap uh Placing it uh as a next biggest game
Company uh following Nintendo we've been Servicing over 50 games all over the World for uh past 20 years and we Continue to scale as we speak now right Now maple story has approximately uh 180 Million cumulative Global players among Which roughly 50 million account have Been active for over 10 years and from Uh Revenue perspective uh we continue to Demonstrate a rising curve as we grow in Size yearly maple story is now uh Expanding beyond the gamees space to Whole culture of its own every game Wants to achieve a such a decade long Sustainable life service but not every Game Can all right so that was the GDC event Last year March of last year 2023 You saw that 1880 million players second Only to Nintendo and now this company Moves into blockchain here's a clip on Maple story making the move listen in Maple story world and the other is maple Story SDK and these two will help in uh Building up a new relationship with uh Community uh with the help of blockchain Technology you can see the massive Amount of item bases uh which have been Been created along with the 20 years of Service millions of trillions of game Player have experienced the game play And as result of that uh they earn they Obtained the many of these item as a Reward these items will also be uh major
Goals for Community Creator as well We're going to do two things for this First we're going to open up the IP Assets to community creators and Secondly we're going to Distributing I am creating power to the contributors All right so this could be the largest Event that has happened in blockchain Gaming to date uh even greater than some Of the mergers and and programs that We've seen even going in from Web Two to Web 3 and and I don't know if you guys Caught that but the number they were Talking about in terms of ingame Assets In the dilians we were trying to Calculate that into billions I mean the Calculation alone is insane Union to Billion conversion point being is that When you look at the size of the Ecosystem with maple story this is by Far the biggest yet now I want to get Into another clip real quick that goes Into a little bit more around menting Examples and this is also talking a Little bit more about Asian Gamers they Affinity toward nfts listen it so the Rest of it the customization are all Still there right still have the Original maple story customization and This is a different one okay as you can See this is the one over here that's a Mint down here that's a link character They use this uh cryptocurrency over Here which is called neso so basically
At level 30 you will be able to Mint a Character to create it as an nft yes Then you can sell that character itself After meting you can participate in Various onchain activities such as Assigning a unique nickname activate Character tra functions so after Character meaning item can be minted and Enhan wow Hey imagine you get an aring shade in Like what five years time right you can Sell that arane shade and and you can Min it oh my God all right that's the thing I think You know when you look at Asian Gamers They they're starting to get it you know And I think the rest of the Gaming Community is now starting to get an Understanding especially when you see a Project like maple story making this Leap the opportunity here is pretty Significant when you look at their Twitter account this shows just how Quickly that they've got the marketplace Already in place that alone I think is Going to continue to be a pretty Interesting Advantage especially going Into Avalanche and that's where it's Going to get interesting I think let me Go to a clip real quick this shows In-game menting speed listen In All right so you can kind of so the only Way that that speed is going to be
Obtained you think about this not only In the gaming ecosystem let's just talk About all things um tokenized in essence Speed is going to be very critical one Of the ones that we know that is one of The fastest ones out there for this is Of course Avalanche Further into this if you want to compare And you look at transactions Pulsar is a Good example remember we've had Pulsar Talking about the total number of Transactions now almost a quarter of a Billion right now this is still a test Net this will become and when you look At some of the just the charts here this Is the growth right now it's continuing To climb this will be if not the largest One of the largest uh transaction pools Within the Avalanche ecosystem now with Maple story coming to this this could Get a little bit interesting they Themselves have a ridiculous amount of Ip already within this game remember This is a a Legendary game coming over From web 2 into this phase and I think This is going to be a a definite boost In terms of total transactions which is Going to equate to a lot of revenue for Avalanche hence you're going to see Avalanche move pretty aggressively let's Talk a little bit further around why These companies are choosing avac now Here's a good example Pulsar talks about This listen in if you want to play like
Sbox sbox has a huge headache with the Time that takes the transactions and Then uh when you want to transact Something uh that you bought in sbox you Need to pay maybe I don't know back in The days when the gas fee was super high Was like 100 or more dollars to send uh To him for instance my nft was like what The heck man this is unusable and slow Right and for us that was not an option Because if we need to to tell our users Go and buy to an exchange register Kyc all that mess man no in our subnet Is if you have whatever EVN compatible Uh token and even stable coins you can Meet our nfts and also uh having Everyone in the game working with one Token that was important so there was no Other choice right yeah not for us it Was a probably the best one yeah I try Cardano Solan Harmony the guys of phanto I mean was Was really hard to get answers all right So let's just kind of run through the The the shopping experience if you look At this let's go in and we'll just add One of these cats right here a starter Pack you go into the shopping cart you Can kind of start to see the pull down Opportunity so there they are all of That available of being able to go and Again this is in within Avalanche this Is again one of the big advantages that Avac and the subnets represent
