GameStop announces partnership with crypto exchange FTX.US and new DappRadar integration.
Earlier this year, well-known video game retailer GameStop launched its brand new Ethereum-based NFT marketplace to go along with its web3 wallet. The wallet, downloadable from their website, allows users to store, send and receive crypto and NFTs. The wallet enables gamers to send and receive in-game assets without having to leave their web browsers.
Immutable X and GameStop partnered to create the marketplace, which was built on the Ethereum blockchain. GameStop and Immutable X also recently launched a $100 million token grant fund to bring game developers onto the marketplace.
Now, GameStop is partnering with Sam Bankman-Fried’s crypto exchange FTX.US to promote interaction between the gaming and crypto community. The two companies will promote web3 e-commerce and marketing initiatives, while certain GameStop retail stores will carry FTX gift cards. GameStop is also being given the label of FTX’s “preferred” retail partner in the U.S. Further deal terms were not disclosed.
