GCash and Axie Infinity Team Up to Boost Web3 Gaming Experience
GCash, the Philippines' largest and most popular cashless ecosystem and banking app, is going to change the way blockchain technology is used. Through a partnership with Axie Infinity, the best Web3 game, GCash wants to improve the experience of playing games on the blockchain. Because of the partnership, the GCrypto part of the app now has a straight on-ramp and off-ramp portal.

Filipino Web3 gamers now have a safe way to move their Bitcoin from the Axie setting to GCrypto, thanks to this partnership. In addition, users can easily change their in-game funds into real money or Philippine pesos within the same app. GCrypto can also be used as a conversion hub for Pixels and other games in Sky Mavis's Ronin environment.
The project adds new safety measures for users while still following the strict rules for industry governance.
"This partnership is a big step toward our goal of releasing the full potential of blockchain technology and making it easier for more people to use," said Luis Buenaventura, Head of GCrypto at GCash. "By partnering with Axie Infinity and its Ronin ecosystem, we aim to overcome the financial and technical hurdles of crypto gaming, always with a keen focus on user safety."

The Philippines has become an important player in these games. Filipinos make up half of Axie's users, and more and more Filipinos are playing Pixels.
Ronin also runs Katana DEX, a decentralized market that lets people trade in-game tokens like AXS and SLP directly on the blockchain. As of right now, Axie, Pixels, and other network games use this software. Sky Mavis just recently brought Axie Infinity Classic back to life and opened a shop selling merchandise to bring more players to the game and bring a new generation to Web3.
A co-founder and chief growth officer at Sky Mavis named Jeff Zirlin talked about how meaningful the relationship was. "The Philippines is at the forefront of the Web3 gaming movement." GCash is the perfect partner to help this huge group of people become financially free and make the switch to our movement easier for the average person. They have more than 80 million installations across the country.
