Cayman Island, October 10, 2024 –– Gaming-focused Layer-2 Moonveil has shared details of its upcoming node sale and revealed a major investment from Polygon Labs. 50,000 nodes will be made available to the Moonveil community starting from October 22.
Of the investment, $1 million will be used to accelerate the growth of AggLayer-connected projects within Moonveil’s rapidly expanding gaming ecosystem. Moonveil’s newly unveiled Layer-2, built on Polygon CDK, will also integrate with the AggLayer, creating a seamless cross-chain connection that unlocks new levels of innovation in gaming.
“Moonveil’s innovative approach to web3 gaming aligns with Polygon Labs’ vision for the future of blockchain,” said Polygon Labs CEO Marc Boiron. “By supporting Moonveil nodes, we are reinforcing our commitment to advancing the next era of gaming through zk-powered technology and seamless interoperability, enabling true ownership and more empowering, interconnected experiences for players.”
“This investment is a testament to the potential of what we are building, reflecting where web3 gaming has come from and where it’s now headed,” said Moonveil CEO MJ. “With this fantastic support from Polygon Labs, we can turbocharge our mission to create a gaming world in which players and developers are able to thrive. I believe the growth of our builder grants program will help catalyze innovation and attract top developers to Moonveil.”
50,000 nodes are available to the public via a two-phase launch featuring a Whitelist Round (October 22) and a Public Round (October 24). Applicants can secure a whitelist spot by engaging in Moonveil campaigns, AMAs, and through partners’ campaigns.
Moonveil Nodes will play a vital role in the platform’s progressive decentralization strategy and will sync with Polygon CDK’s Gitbook updates. Node operators will contribute to decentralizing Data Availability, Proof Verification, and Transaction Sequencing.
Node activation is scheduled for Q1 2025 but 25% of node operators’ tokens will be unlocked after the TGE, leaving 70% to be distributed over three years. The remaining 5% has been provisioned for community rewards which will commence shortly after the TGE.
Moonveil’s L2 will support both proprietary and third-party games, leveraging its ZK-powered network to provide unparalleled player experiences.
