Yeqinghui, the game I played in elementary school actually came to Web3
Mir4、Wemade、Wemix、Henry Chang, If you don't play games, you may not know what these words mean. The Legend series has over 500 million players, with Mir4 setting a Web3 game record of 1.4 million simultaneous online players.
Success blockchain, failure blockchain.

In 2000, when I was only 4 years old, Wemade was founded in South Korea, and the "Legend" series of MMORPGs became famous worldwide. Legend 2 and Legend 3 have attracted over 120 million users, with a peak monthly revenue of over 65 million US dollars, which is even more powerful than the money printing machine Pumpfun! I have been playing Legend 2 for 9 years and can still earn $20 million per month in China.
Wemade started using blockchain technology in 2020 and launched the Wemix platform, which was then known as the blockchain version of Steam. Its most popular game on the platform was Mir4. After the launch of Mir4 in 2021, it quickly reached 1.4 million simultaneous online players, with the most expensive character selling for over 300000 US dollars, and its popularity was short-lived.
Unfortunately, due to some controversies later on, the blockchain road failed to help Wemade take it to the next level. Henry Chang, the great hero behind Wemade and the godfather of South Korean blockchain games, also resigned as CEO at that time.
Now, he has returned with former Wemix technical leader HoEunOh as CTO, and other members of the team including well-known public chain core members such as Starknet and Klaytn. This time, they will be working on the big ticket:
CROSS @cross_protocol

Wemix , I personally think that user experience is indeed a big issue, as the technology of game public chains was not yet fully developed at that time. Now, Henry Chang positions CROSS as an Ethereum compatible Layer 1 game specific blockchain, which feels like not only a new chapter in his career, but also a summary and iteration of his lessons learned from Wemix.
Technical reflection: EVM compatibility and developer friendliness
CROSS's core technology design revolves around "game specific" and "interoperability", and compared to Wemix, it goes further in compatibility and developer experience. CROSS is fully compatible with the Ethereum virtual machine, and developers can use the familiar Solidity language and Ethereum toolchain.
In addition, CROSS provides an SDK toolkit that offers developers a modular, low code solution. For example, developers can quickly develop NFTs or token reward mechanisms without delving into the underlying technical logic.
CROSS has optimized transaction throughput and gas fees for high-frequency microtransactions in gaming scenarios, and supports interoperability across game assets, allowing players to transfer NFTs or tokens between different games and build a true 'mutual gaming economy'.
Model Reflection: An Open and Transparent Token Economy Model
Back then, Wemix was rumored to have been taken down due to issues with its token economy model. I don't know the truth, but the result was a sharp drop in coin prices. CROSS has learned lessons from the new economic model and also learned new things from CZ: destruction reduces circulation, token unlocking is linked to coin price. If the currency price rises well, it can be unlocked more. If the currency price is not awesome, it should be circulated less.
The total amount of CROSS tokens is fixed at 1 billion, without any additional issuance. The price across all channels is 0.1 US dollars, with 10.4 million private and 8.1 million public funds raised, totaling 18.5 million US dollars. The FDV is 100 million US dollars.
As a game blockchain, do you think this price is high?

CROSS is developing rapidly. This year, the main website has been launched, wallets have been released, the first game "Ragnarok: Monster World" has been launched, fundraising has been completed, and plans are underway to integrate 20+games such as Rappelz M and Rohan 2. This year, there will be NFT markets, ecological funds, and Web3 game incubators to be developed.
At this point, we must talk about tokens. Yes, TGE has launched Binance Alpha, and you can download CROSSx and connect your wallet in CROSSPLAY, which may bring surprises.
