Polygon has been one of the fastest-growing Dapp platforms for Ethereum scaling, rapidly becoming the de-facto standard for DeFi, NFTs, and Blockchain Gaming with 500+ Dapps, ~7M daily txns, and 1.8M+ unique wallets.

The rise of gaming on Polygon has been especially noticeable, with more than 100,000 blockchain gamers on Polygon and top Web 3 games, and Aavegotchi is one of them, building high-quality gaming experiences thanks to Polygon’s high speed and fast confirmation times.

This tight-knit and exponentially growing gamer community is what led to the creation of Polygon Studios: a brand new arm at Polygon that is focused on growing the global Blockchain Gaming and NFT Industry, and bridging the gap between Web 2 and Web 3 gaming.

Introducing Polygon August Adrenaline: an initiative to highlight and get to know the Gaming & NFT projects on Polygon a little better!

The next project in this series is Gaimin!

Please tell us more about your project and your team.

GAIMIN is a Gaming company and a Digital Powerhouse that have developed the world’s first AI Gaming PC Application which passively pays Gamers for the usage of their PC’s Processing Power. GAIMIN is the Airbnb or Uber for Gamers. The GAIMIN Digital Powerhouse taps into a global network of 3.1 Billion Gamers and aims to harness the unused GPU Processing Power of 1.5 Billion Gaming PCs. Once a Gamer downloads the GAIMIN Application their spare GPU capacity is then aggregated and utilized to power the Blockchain, which is the underlying technology of Cryptocurrency.

Where are you in the hype cycle for gaming and NFT’s?

Gaimin is in the early stages of gaming and NFT. Early adopters will reap the rewards when these two worlds collide, NFT popularity will skyrocket, and at the same time, gamers will start to see real usability and the key functions and features of each NFT in their favorite games.

Who are some thought leaders you follow in the space?

Alex Russman is one of the thought leaders whom we actively follow.

What are some best ways for newbies to get up to speed in space?

One best way for newbies to get up to speed in space is by joining their first NFT hype.

What is one thing that most people don’t know about your project?

We are one of the very few companies that have already been able to bring NFT’s into the gaming world. We facilitate the proper use of NFT’s, which are our in-game assets, where we provide true ownership, where our gamers can buy/sell/trade their NFT on our marketplace. Many people think NFT’s are mainly collectibles, Gaimin has usable NFT’s, our NFT’s have a function or feature built-in, our latest GaimCraft allows Minecraft players the ability to download and install our app, as we monetize their computation power of each machine, we will reward our users with free Minecraft NFT’s to use in the game, at no cost to the gamer, its all free, forever.

Why did you choose to build on Polygon?

Community, team, performance, and compatibility with other Ethereum chains are the factors that brought us to build on Polygon.
