Oasys, a blockchain platform for games, has teamed up with SBI Holdings, a big Japanese bank, to make its Web3 gaming environment better. The goal of this new relationship is to make Oasys’ native coin more valuable and help the platform grow in the Japanese market.
SBI Holdings will invest in Oasys to make its coins easier to get and get more of. This will help fund and create new blockchain games. Chairman and CEO of SBI Holdings, Yoshitaka Kitao, was excited about the partnership and pointed out that Oasys could help blockchain technology get better in games.
Oasys has worked with big game companies like Sega and Ubisoft before, and this new agreement will make those relationships even stronger. The partnership includes help for new blockchain games that are set to come out in 2024.
The CEO of SBI VC Trade, Tomohiko Kondo, said that helping Oasys fits with SBI’s plan to help the Web3 business in Japan grow. He stressed that the relationship would help the two groups work together better and speed up the creation of new blockchain games.
Not only has SBI Holdings been involved in this relationship, but the company has also invested in Ripple and R3 in the past. As an example of its recent work, the company launched a crypto exchange-traded fund with Franklin Templeton. This shows that it is serious about incorporating digital assets into traditional finance.
