HYCHAIN is being developed to offer a complete, first party suite of tooling for game developers to effortlessly build otherwise complex on-chain systems for their games. Through the technology and team of MetaFab now being exclusively folded into HYCHAIN, HYCHAIN will not only offer bleeding edge speeds and fundamentals with its chain, but also a proprietary layer of well-tested and developed technologies for partner game developers to take advantage of and leverage.
