Leveraging Blockchain and NFTs
Space Nation uses blockchain technology, NFTs, and tokens to provide true ownership over in-game assets. Players can trade or sell their ships, equipment, and other valuable items securely and transparently using Immutable Passport and Checkout. This integration means that time and effort invested in the game translate to real value.
Jerome Wu, CEO of Space Nation, envisions a dynamic space universe: "Our vision for Space Nation Online is to build a living, breathing space universe where people with different purposes can live, fight, socialize, and be proud of their accomplishments!"
In-Game Currency and Marketplace
Players must also manage the upkeep of their fleet. This includes repairs, upgrades, and crew salaries, which require a steady income. Various roles within the game, such as miners, fighters, explorers, and arms dealers, offer different paths to earning the in-game CHR currency.
Through mining, production, and trading, players can gather resources and craft powerful equipment to sell in the marketplace. These tokens not only enhance gameplay but also give players a stake in the game's governance and future development.
