Yuga Labs, the Web3 company behind Bored Ape Yacht Club, is bringing AI to blockchain with the launch of ApeChain, a new creator platform.
To future-proof our ecosystem, Yuga Labs has partnered with Wire Network, a universal layer 1 blockchain infrastructure designed for the AI agent economy. It is a near future in which “AI agents” will be able to take advanced actions in place of humans. The idea is to create a platform where creators can interact more easily and profitably with their fans.
ApeChain capitalizes on the momentum of Yuga Labs’ track record as the largest player in Web3 gaming. Yuga Labs says it provides a platform for entrepreneurs and builders to enjoy more creative freedom, driving a better overall experience for consumers across all forms of entertainment, from art to gaming.
Yuga Labs has been at the forefront of new technology. It was born with the acceptance of cryptocurrencies and non-fungible tokens. At OtherSide, we embraced the metaverse, built a gaming business, and are now betting on the intersection of AI and the creator economy.
As AI emerges to the forefront of conversation in the creator economy, this partnership aims to transform the way consumers and creators interact with AI agents, delivering enhanced and meaningful engagement across digital and virtual environments. said Yuga Labs.
In addition to its decentralized AI capabilities, ApeChain will also benefit from additional core strengths of the Wire Network, including free gas fees, seamless cross-chain operations, and ultra-fast transactions. These capabilities will be integrated into Yuga Labs’ diverse portfolio of digital assets and virtual worlds and made available to everyone who builds on ApeChain.
Wire Network CEO Ken DiCross said in a statement that the company sees this partnership as an important step forward in realizing the potential of AI.
“Yuga Labs is an established leader in building digital communities and pushing creative boundaries,” said DiCross. “Combining our scalable next-generation blockchain infrastructure with Yuga’s creativity and cultural influence opens up new possibilities for AI-agent interactions that are more immersive, seamless, and beneficial to everyone involved. Our collective goal here is to create a broader, more decentralized, user-driven metaverse.”
ApeChain will debut this week in conjunction with Yuga Labs’ flagship event, ApeFest, in Lisbon, Portugal.
