A new BTC-based blockchain game platform is taking Bitcoin to exciting new heights beyond just trading and investing. This platform creates fun games on the BTC blockchain, where players can win real payouts and much more! New Bitcoin City, is the latest sensation that offers a variety of casual, board, and strategy games accessible on both web and mobile devices.
The best part? All these games operate on BTC, making it a unique and thrilling experience for Bitcoin enthusiasts. On top of that, the platform includes NFT auctions and a user-friendly marketplace.
Before, DeFi applications for BTC were only available as tokenized versions on different blockchains like Ethereum (ETH) or Solana (SOL).
But now, with the introduction of “Bitcoin Request for Comment” (BRC-20) standards, developers can create tokens and build DeFi apps directly on the BTC network. As a result, there’s been a fast growth in digital art and meme coins being developed on the BTC mainnet.

Can the Bitcoin BTC-Based Blockchain Game Achieve Success
While blockchain-based gaming has become popular in recent years, a game powered by BTC might face some challenges. One of these challenges could be slower transaction speeds on the BTC blockchain. Nevertheless, the team behind the game has come up with a solution to address this problem.
To make Bitcoin transactions faster, the team developed NOS, which is a layer 2 network built on top of the Bitcoin network using an Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). This allows for smart contract functionality similar to Ethereum.
Blockchain-based gaming has brought a fresh perspective to the gaming world. According to the developers, using blockchains ensures fair games and winnings, unlike traditional online games that often have hidden mechanisms preventing big earnings.
