When it came to launching BYORacer to the public, BYO sought a partner who could help us achieve more than just technological integration—we wanted a platform that could amplify our vision for the future of Web3 gaming. Immutable was the natural choice, and our collaboration has already laid the foundation for not just BYORacer but potentially everything BYO coming down the line.

Here’s why we chose Immutable and how it aligns with our ambitions for Web3 gaming.

1. A Thriving Player Base: The “Steam” of Web3

Immutable is rapidly becoming the Steam of Web3 gaming. With millions of active users and a growing ecosystem of games, the platform provides an unparalleled opportunity for BYORacer to:

Engage a large, established audience of blockchain gamers.

Expand visibility among Web3 enthusiasts already familiar with Immutable’s ecosystem.

Tap into cross-game synergies, and aligned quests.

This existing player base reduces the friction of adoption, making it easier for BYORacer to thrive in a competitive market.

2. Immutable’s Vision: A Partner for Growth

We didn’t just choose a platform—we chose a partner that shares our vision for the future of gaming. Immutable brings more than technology to the table:

Development Support: Their tools, SDKs, and APIs have streamlined BYORacer’s operations, enabling us to focus on creating a compelling game.

Funding Opportunities: As a partner, Immutable provides access to funding programs, essential to the scaling of upcoming releases.

Commitment to Innovation: Immutable’s focus on constantly improving its ecosystem aligns with our goal to push boundaries in Web3 gaming.

This partnership gives BYOPILLS the backing of a company that’s deeply invested in making Web3 gaming better—for developers and players alike.

3. Layer 2 Technology: Flexibility for the BYO ecosystem

The need for a Layer 2 blockchain was paramount for BYOPILLS to really introduce complex and compelling web3 experiences with proper earning mechanics. Immutable zkEVM ( powered by polygon) offers:

Low Costs and High Throughput: With negligible gas fees and the ability to handle massive transaction volumes, Immutable provides the infrastructure for BYORacer’s fast-paced gameplay. It's also Gas Free for players who sign up with Passport. (more on Passport coming)

Interactivity for New Experiences: Our upcoming Web3 experiences demand real-time, frequent interactions. Immutable’s Layer 2 solution ensures we can deliver this without compromise. Staking, crafting, upgrading, bulk minting and incorporating NFTs that can equip other NFTs are all possible with Immutable zkEVM.

Creative Freedom: With Immutable’s flexibility, we can build innovative Web3 experiences that would be impossible on traditional platforms.

This technological foundation not only supports BYORacer but also future games and experiences within the BYO ecosystem.

4. Passport

For those who already know us, you know the ease of onboarding was on top of mind. We did not want to scare off non web3 players, and built internal tech for it. When we saw Immutable's passport tech - the alignment was a no brainer. It powers up our login and more on how this will be integrated with your current BYOHUB accounts will be mentioned soon.

Immutable Passport is more than a non-custodial wallet—it’s a streamlined player identity solution that makes onboarding effortless for our community. BYORacer players will enjoy:

Instant Wallet Creation: Frictionless onboarding using Google, Apple, or email ensures players can jump straight into the action.

Enterprise-Grade Security: Immutable’s “Your Crypto, Your Keys” approach guarantees asset safety, with keys secured by Magic.

One-Login Convenience: Players can access all Immutable-powered games and marketplaces with a single login, creating a unified and seamless experience.

For BYORacer, Passport ensures players spend less time setting up and more time racing, crafting, and earning.

5. Building for the Future

Choosing Immutable wasn’t just about supporting BYORacer—it was about laying the groundwork for everything BYOPILLS plans to achieve in the coming years:

Expanding the BYO Ecosystem: Immutable’s infrastructure will power our ambitious vision of interconnected games and experiences.

Attracting New Audiences: As Immutable grows its user base, BYORacer will naturally benefit from increased exposure and adoption.

Driving Mass Adoption of Web3 Gaming: Together with Immutable, we’re working to make Web3 gaming more accessible, fun, and rewarding for players around the world.

Immutable as Our Catalyst

Immutable isn’t just a platform—it’s a partner that empowers us to create, innovate, and scale. With its existing player base, cutting-edge technology, and vision for the future, Immutable is the perfect ally for BYOPILLS as we build the BYOVERSE, launch TRYP, and continue to redefine what’s possible in Web3 gaming.

BYORacer is just the beginning. Stay tuned for what’s next, as we bring even more groundbreaking experiences to life with the power of Immutable.
