Team Vitality Inks Partnership With Tezos Ecosystem

Global eSports organization Team Vitality joined forces with Tezos to become the blockchain’s main technical partner. The alliance will help Team Vitality leverage Tezos blockchain for the next three years.

The organization will have its players and stars using the Tezos brand throughout the tournaments and collaborating with the blockchain ecosystem on educating fans as part of the gaming experience.

“This is truly a game-changing partnership for Vitality, which feels appropriate given 2022 is set to be the biggest year in our history. The opportunities Tezos can bring to strengthen the relationship between us and our fans is incredibly exciting, and we’re immensely proud to have Tezos join us on this journey,” Nicolas Maurer, CEO of Team Vitality, commented in the announcement.

Tezos and eSports

The partnership implies another blockchain step in its inception into the eSports industry, specifically for the Tezos ecosystem.

“(…) The decision from Team Vitality to choose the energy-efficient Tezos blockchain as a technical partner is another signal to the established and growing gaming vertical that low gas fees, forkless upgradability, and ease-of-use are the key factors driving the next wave of adoption for blockchain technologies. I’m thrilled to see Team Vitality join the Tezos community,” Mason Edwards, Chief of Staff of Tezos Foundation, stated.

Gaming Set to Make Fireworks Within the Blockchain Industry Soon

As FXEmpire reported last year, gaming is expected to be one of the biggest use cases for cryptocurrencies and the blockchain, while NFTs remains a burgeoning market segment.

MaticVerse is positioned right at the intersection of both of these trends, and its “NFT play-to-earn GameFi token” is starting to reflect that demand.

The MaticVerse ecosystem comprises the MVERSE token, an NFT marketplace, and a game. The project launched its BabyVengers game in early November, which the MaticVerse website describes as “a player VS environment battle card game.”
