Enjinstarter - enabling more creativity for game developers
Enjinstarter is an ecosystem focused on easing the process of creating and running NFT-powered games on the blockchain. It helps game studios focus on the game development process by simplifying the blockchain side of things. In addition, Enjin creates an end-to-end suite of tools that gamers and game developers can use to make the blockchain gaming process seamless. This includes a myriad of software development kits (SDKs) that allow users to easily build items and integrate them into games or applications.
The Enjin Network allows developers to build on Ethereum and leverage its security while avoiding the crazy gas costs through its scaling solution called ‘JumpNet’. Furthermore, the platform and its tools are completely free-to-use with the only condition of requiring some ENJ tokens for minting NFT assets. By providing these tools, Enjin has created a robust ecosystem and community of games, game studios and gamers all connected to each other through its token, the Enjin Coin (ENJ).
Enjin crypto is an ERC-20 token built on the Ethereum network. That means that the project brings the benefit of the blockchain to gaming and the benefits of smart contracts. One huge benefit being promoted by Enjin is that by bringing gaming onto the blockchain, they will be able to help gamers avoid the extremely high levels of fraud prevalent in the transfer of virtual goods.
The Enjin Smart Wallet supports Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Enjin Coin, and all the ERC-20 coins. Within the wallet, the users will be able to trade coins and virtual game items with any other Smart Wallet user. There is support for Transaction Requests that can be sent to other wallet owners, which they will then either confirm or deny.
Prakash Somasundaram and Alvin Tang are the co-founders of Enjinstarter. They have raised a total of $10M in funding.
