HappyChain: Promoting a New Revolution of Free Games on Ethereum L2

Today, we are pleased to announce the launch of HappyChain, a blockchain focused on simple and joyful gaming experiences.

What is HappyChain?

HappyChain is an Ethereum L2 blockchain designed to provide free games and a frictionless on-chain experience. On HappyChain, users can start playing games in seconds instead of hours. No wallet installation or gas fees are required: just log in with a social account to start playing immediately. This user-friendly feature allows even those unfamiliar with cryptocurrency technology to easily get started.

We have also introduced the concept of universal happy income: players can earn some $HAPPY tokens every day, allowing them to experience games with real value for free. This is not just free gaming, but a "play-to-earn" model.

For developers, HappyChain aims to be the ultimate user acquisition and distribution channel, providing players with the simplest way to try new games.

In the Web2 space, free games are the main channel for user acquisition, but this model is lacking in Web3. It is unreasonable to require users to pay high fees to try games. Our goal is to solve this problem and attract more Web2 users into the Web3 world in the process.

Technical Features

HappyChain provides a top-notch experience for developing innovative games and social applications. Our roadmap includes the following features:

• Synchronous randomness: Implementing functionality similar to Math.random() in Solidity.
• Private information support: Avoid submitting issues that disclose immediately.
• Event and state-based automation while maintaining a smooth on-chain user experience.
• Anti-Witch Technology: Provides additional benefits and targeted airdrops for verified players.
• Good support for off-chain computation and zero-knowledge proofs

In terms of technical architecture, HappyChain will use the OP stack and become part of the Optimism Superchain. We will use Celestia to provide data availability. These two projects are the most reliable infrastructures in the field, and they have generously provided us with funding to support our vision.

Why choose HappyChain?

HappyChain was born out of the contemplation of the ideal form of a game chain. We aim to focus on solving the practical problems developers currently face, rather than redesigning the entire tech stack or introducing unproven new technological solutions.

The fundamental issue with on-chain games is distribution: existing games are often difficult to get into, even some that are very interesting. Although technologies like social login and gas sponsorship already exist, these technologies need to be integrated at the blockchain level to provide users with a seamless experience.

On HappyChain, the user experience will be greatly simplified:

1. Register using a social account
2. Start the game directly
3. Easily make in-game purchases through the built-in fiat entry or standardized cross-chain bridge, or receive universal happy tokens to start playing valuable games for free.

Unique Features of HappyChain

We do not believe that zero-friction user onboarding is a brand new concept. Our goal is to bring engaging experiences online and on-chain: secure, trustless, and easy to use.

HappyChain welcomes all types of developers, whether they are large-budget studios or independent developers. We are committed to making HappyChain a breeding ground for experimentation, encouraging innovation and a permissionless spirit.

We are excited about the new experiences brought by blockchain, especially the possibilities offered by on-chain games. These open-source games are not only difficult to be banned but can also be forked, while providing creators with clear profit pathways. They also make it easier for users to generate content.

The philosophy of HappyChain is not limited to the technical level. We focus on a relaxed and enjoyable experience, which is significantly different from existing chains that focus on DeFi or ambitious gaming. On HappyChain, making money is just a secondary consideration; we are more focused on casual mini-game experiences and social interactions.

Finally, HappyChain will have its own unique, exclusive, and engaging content, setting it apart from those imitation chains that only contain clones of popular DeFi applications. Our style is light, gentle, and humanized, rather than the dark, neon green high-tech style.

Future Outlook

We are looking forward to the future of HappyChain, including:

• Develop more innovative features
• Implement powerful marketing strategies to build HappyChain into an efficient distribution platform.
• Expand the utility of $HAPPY token
• Design a fair token distribution mechanism
• Delve into the details of our technology
• Work closely with game development partners

We always maintain an open and straightforward attitude, taking our mission seriously but not too seriously. We believe that HappyChain will bring a new and joyful force to the field of blockchain gaming.
