Warp, a company specializing in blockchain-integrated game publishing, has initiated a sale of digital infrastructure components termed 'nodes' through the AvaCloud platform. The goal is to "bridge the gap between traditional and blockchain gaming."
Warp's nodes are offered in three distinct tiers — Enterprise, Pro, and Syndicate — with pricing set at $5,000, $500, and a combinable structure, respectively. Owners of the digital infrastructure components will enjoy benefits such as a share in network earnings, influence over governance, access to exclusive data, and early updates regarding the Warp ecosystem. According to the company's leadership, this initiative aims to decentralize the operational framework of its gaming network.
The underlying technology is built on a customized Avalanche blockchain, which is intended to support the development and integration of Web3 games. The sale is presented as a limited opportunity for early adopters to acquire a stake in the foundational layer of an emerging gaming infrastructure.
