Miami, Florida, June 4, 2024, GamingWire
zkRace (formerly Deres), a leader in web3 horse racing games and the world's 1st ZK-roll infrastructure optimized for GameFi, has entered into a strategic partnership with Tranak, crypto's leading fiat-to-crypto payment gateway. This collaboration is set to launch Tranak's on-ramp solution for the ZERC token on the zkRace platform, a significant step towards wider gaming accessibility and mass adoption.
Although it is considered a niche in the wider blockchain gaming space, NFT horse racing games have attracted many users and have had a positive impact on the Web3 industry. These games offer a straightforward and practical use case for beginners to explore the space and advanced users to deploy their crypto capital.
zkRace stands out as the first horse racing game to use Zero Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs), a technology that increases security and efficiency. By incorporating ZKPs, zkRace ensures that transactions are not only faster but also more secure, setting a new standard in the blockchain gaming industry.
The integration of Tranak's on-ramp solution allows the zkRace community to easily purchase the necessary ZERC tokens to participate in the adaptive Web3 horse racing platform. By simplifying the process of acquiring ZERC for more than 20 payment methods, including Visa, MasterCard and Apple Pay, the partnership aims to remove barriers for non-crypto users and accelerate player onboarding.
Furthermore, the utility of ZERC tokens extends beyond horse racing. Also zkRace layer 2 zk-rollup will be used as a gas payment for other GameFi projects using the Validium infrastructure.
Adomas Judicius, founder and CEO of zkRace, emphasized the impact of this partnership, saying, “Integrating Transc on-ramp is a game-changer for zkRace. It not only increases the reach of our game, but also serves as a critical bridge to non-players. The ease of obtaining ZERC tokens will greatly help players get on board from the general public.”
The benefits of this partnership are clear:
Fast Player Onboarding: Streamlining the sign-in process allows new players to join the game faster. Accessibility for Non-Crypto Users: Transac's solution provides an easy entry point for those unfamiliar with cryptocurrencies. Mass Adoption of the Game: By lowering the barriers to entry, zkRace is set to attract a wider audience, increasing its user base and community engagement.
“At Transak, we strongly support the development of functional web3 games. This exciting partnership with zkRace is another significant milestone in our vision. With this collaboration, users can easily buy in-game assets with fiat currency on board, bringing zkRace and its web3 features to millions of users in 160+ countries. It makes it accessible to people,” said Sammy Start, co-founder and CEO of Transak.
This partnership reflects zkRace's commitment to making blockchain gaming more accessible and fun for a global audience, while also establishing its pioneering role in the GameFi industry. As zkRace continues to innovate and lead in this space, the community can expect continued improvements that will enrich their gaming experience and expand the reach of the game.
