Unity Games, known for its prominence as a software provider for game developers, controls a significant portion of the mobile gaming market with a 60% share.
The partnership sees the firm join Unity’s Verified Solutions program, offering a unique opportunity for this blockchain to be featured in Unity’s asset store and featured in promotional campaigns.
This foray into the gaming sector represents a bold step for Polkadot as it seeks to increase its visibility and presence in the Web3 space.
The Unity Asset Store is a platform used by over 1.5 million developers and is a key space in the creative economy for a wide range of applications, from animation to architecture.
The impact of this partnership on the price of Polkadot has been significant
Following the addition of three key figures to the Polkadot management team on November 25, the price of DOT has seen an impressive increase of 41%, rising from $5.32 to $7.55.
Experts predict that this rally could take the price of Polkadot to reach $8.01 by the end of December.
In the current market, DOT is trading at $8.04 with a market capitalization of $10.1 billion.
Additionally, the protocol has recorded a notable milestone with over 1,000,000 daily transactions, underscoring its ability to handle high transaction throughput.
This strategic alliance with Unity Games marks a pivotal moment for Polkadot, not only in terms of entering the gaming industry, but also in consolidating its position as a prominent player in the interoperable blockchain space.
