Balance.fun, developed by E-PAL, the world's largest gaming companion platform, is a Web3 social and gaming platform that combines blockchain and AI technology. By redefining social and gaming experiences, Balance.fun aims to become a key bridge connecting Web2 and Web3 users.

Background

The gaming companion industry has experienced rapid growth in recent years, gradually expanding from a niche gaming service into a global industry. By providing personalized gaming interaction experiences and deep social connections, gaming companion platforms have successfully attracted millions of players, becoming an essential part of the modern gaming ecosystem.

However, traditional gaming companion models also face some fundamental issues, including: low user retention rates and lack of long-term appeal; difficulty in ensuring service quality, which affects user experience; and the undervaluation of the labor of companions.

With the rise of blockchain and Web3 technologies, this industry is undergoing a significant transformation:

As the world's largest gaming companion platform, E-PAL has accumulated a vast user base and companion network over years of operation. Under the Web2 model, E-PAL primarily relies on commissions and service fees for profit. To address the limitations of traditional models, E-PAL is fully transforming to Web3 by introducing blockchain technology to launch the Balance platform, building an infrastructure centered around token economy and fan agreements, combining the traffic advantages of Web2 with the innovative potential of Web3 to create a new decentralized gaming platform.

Balance.fun Solution

Balance.fun, developed by the E-PAL team, aims to provide easy interaction and experiences for developers, creators, and users in a decentralized world by integrating AI-driven models, decentralized tools, and blockchain frameworks. Developers can easily build and promote games and applications using powerful blockchain and AI tools, while users can enjoy a more personalized, diverse, and interactive experience, driving the global mass adoption of Web3 technology.

To achieve a Web3 user experience infrastructure aimed at mass adoption, Balance.fun has launched a Web3 infrastructure composed of five interconnected layers, each enhancing the platform's functionality:

Based on this five-layer internet architecture, Balance.fun perfectly integrates Web2 and Web3 games, simplifying user registration, game access, and game asset trading and purchasing processes through NFT and DID identity systems. The Fans Protocol helps companions issue fan tokens to establish personal economic systems, enhancing social connections with players and long-term development. By introducing AI-driven systems as core elements, users can create personalized AI virtual companions that can participate in gaming, learning, entertainment, and even productivity tasks, adapting to individual preferences, behaviors, and needs, thereby significantly enhancing user experience and playability.
