People do not come for the blockchain. They come for the game.

Sign in with the Cloud Wallet, you are playing in seconds. No extension, no seed phrase, no wallet popup asking for gas mid-fight. That is why studios ship here.

Brawlers hit the Epic Games Store in 2024, in front of the store's 230 million PC users. Alien Worlds has been running on WAX for years, with more than 10 million marketplace sales.

Four ways to put WAXP to work

Staking here is not just yield farming with extra steps. Staked WAXP is what pays for network resources, which is exactly why nobody gets a gas prompt mid-action.

Secured by elected block producers

No single company runs WAX. Blocks are produced by a set of independent operators, elected by the people who stake WAXP and reviewed continuously.

If one of them drops out, the schedule simply moves on to the next. No central switch, no single point of failure, just a chain that keeps producing a block every half second.

Frequently asked questions

  • WAX is a layer-1 blockchain built on Antelope, designed for games, collectibles and tokens. It produces a block every half second.

  • There is no per-transaction fee for the user. Network resources are covered by staked WAXP, which is why wallets can act without approving gas each time.

  • Yes. The WAX Cloud Wallet works without a browser extension or seed phrase, which is how most games on WAX onboard players in seconds.

  • Solana, Polygon, Base, TON, Ethereum and BNB Chain, for both tokens and NFTs, through the Cloud Wallet bridge.

  • 493M NFTs have been minted on the AtomicAssets contract across 111K collections. The figure is read straight from the contract counter.

  • Four ways: stake and vote for block producers, use liquid staking through WAXFusion, supply liquidity pools on Alcor or TacoSwap, or provide liquidity to the WAXP pool on Uniswap.

  • WAX states the chain is carbon neutral. The certifying body and the current reporting period are being confirmed and will be published once we have them.
