GUNZ Token Expands Its Global Presence with Listing on BYDFi Exchange

The globally renowned crypto exchange BYDFi today announced the global listing of the GUNZ token($GUN), the native asset of the GUNZ Layer1 blockchain developed by German AAA game studio Gunzilla Games.

Global crypto exchange BYDFi is listing the GUNZ token ($GUN), the native asset of the Layer-1 blockchain developed by German AAA game studio Gunzilla Games. As one of the first crypto economies specifically designed for AAA gaming, GUNZ is quickly emerging as a standout Web3 project thanks to its strong institutional backing and groundbreaking infrastructure tailored for next-generation gaming experiences.

Unlike early play-to-earn experiments that were largely driven by hype, GUNZ is fundamentally different. It’s a chain designed to be embedded seamlessly into high-end gaming environments, ensuring true digital ownership of in-game assets while enhancing the player experience—without any compromise or disruption to the gameplay itself.

This vision has brought together some of the biggest names in gaming, finance, and technology to support Gunzilla Games in building GUNZ. To date, the studio has secured over $76 million in funding from leading institutions like A&M Capital, Kamet Ventures, and Web3 gaming fund Seven Sins.

The interest and support are evident in the impressive milestones achieved by the GUNZ ecosystem to date:

* 12+ Million Wallet Addresses Onboarded

* 230+ Million On-Chain Transactions Processed

* 8+ Billion GUNZ Tokens Circulating

* 150+ Countries Covered

The GUNZ Layer-1 blockchain is designed to support high-throughput transactions and handle the demands of a large-scale AAA game like Off The Grid. It features several innovations at the protocol level to optimize for both decentralization and performance.

The GUNZ chain uses a modified BFT consensus mechanism to ensure rapid block times and high throughput, which are essential for seamless in-game transactions and a smooth user experience. This is in contrast to Bitcoin or Ethereum, which can struggle with scalability at the protocol level.

In addition to the core chain, GUNZ is introducing a unique on-chain game state management system to coordinate and manage the massive amounts of data generated by Off The Grid, such as NFT mints, game events, and user actions. This system leverages smart contracts and a distributed ledger to maintain a transparent and immutable record of all game-related activity.

This capability is crucial for a AAA game that will generate a significant volume of on-chain activity. In contrast to small-scale play-to-earn games that have attempted to build Web3 integration, Off The Grid is designed from the ground up as a massively scalable game on a capable blockchain.

The game itself is a cinematic cyberpunk battle royale set in a sprawling open world. It combines film-quality graphics and high-fidelity storytelling with a competitive gaming experience that will appeal to a broad audience.

Off The Grid features a full-stack blockchain economy where players can earn, collect, and trade in-game NFTs—such as weapons, skins, and gear—directly on the GUNZ network. These NFTs will have real functionality within the game itself, in contrast to the speculative hype often seen in other Web3 projects.

This solves one of the key issues in traditional gaming, which is the lack of asset ownership and control for players. In traditional games, players' assets can be wiped out by the game developer at any time, and they have no say in how the game is developed or governed.

In contrast, Off The Grid is designed to give players complete ownership of their in-game assets, which they can earn through gameplay or purchase on the open market. They can also trade these assets with other players or sell them back to the game developer at any time.

The game will also feature a game token that can be used for various in-game purposes, such as purchasing items in the game store or upgrading equipment. The game token will have a clear use case and value proposition within the game itself, in contrast to many other game tokens that are designed primarily for speculation.

Overall, Gunzilla Games is taking a holistic approach to integrating blockchain technology into its AAA game to create a truly engaging and rewarding experience for players. The studio is combining its deep experience in game development with the latest Web3 technologies to build a game that pushes the boundaries of what’s possible in both gaming and blockchain.

As Gunzilla Games CTO Timur Davidenko said at the recent developer summit, “We are not trying to adapt an existing game to blockchain. We are building a game that is fundamentally designed for blockchain from the beginning.”
