Nakamoto Games’ 2023 So Far
Timeline of developments up to now and what’s coming in March
Nakamoto Games is positioning itself as the leading Web3 Gaming Platform, releasing over 150 games in 2022, the most extensive collection of games available on any blockchain gaming site. The project initially planned for only 100 releases over the course of 2022. Nonetheless 150 games were released, a testament to the team’s relentless work ethic and commitment to providing gamers with a versatile array of cutting-edge blockchain gaming options.
And we’re not stopping there. In 2023, we have already implemented groundbreaking new features, launched more than 30 games, launched massive multiplayer tournaments, and added novel ways to earn. 2022 was a year of over delivering and overachieving for Nakamoto Games. We will go above and beyond this in 2023. Here’s what we’ve achieved so far this year and what is in store to come.
January

We are pushing hard to get the application up and running. Again, we are pleased to narrow down a launch date to quarter two or quarter three of 2023. Development is quicker than expected, so keep an eye on our blog and socials to get updates on its progress.
Bitcoin Lightning Wallet integration - We plan to integrate the Bitcoin Lightning Wallet into our platform during Q2 or Q3 of this year. While we focus firmly on blockchain gaming and Web3, we aim to promote GameFi, where users have real ownership and lucrative earning opportunities, which aligns with Satoshi Nakamoto’s vision for decentralized finance.
Adding Lightning Wallet to our ecosystem will make Nakamoto Games even more complete and ready for a future where the best gaming platforms and cryptocurrencies work together to promote adoption.
Expanding the biggest Game Selection in GameFi, we’re aiming on 500 Games to be launched on the platform.
