In its effort to advance blockchain based Defi applications, Enjin has announced the launch of Efinity, the first parachain on the Polkadot network dedicated to non-fungible tokens (NFTs). Over 100 blockchain-based games and applications are slated for Efinity’s ecosystem, including CryptoBlades, a play-to-earn NFT game with over a million users.

Enjin’s announcement comes as competing ecosystems to Polkadot’s new technology gain traction. Avalanche recently announced the establishment of a $290 million fund to foster NFTs and decentralized finance applications (DeFis) on its “subnets,” the first being the GameFi platform DeFi Kingdoms. Enjin also announced plans to roll out beta versions of its NFT.io marketplace and wallet by the end of March. Other projects expanded to Efinity include Lost Relics, Dvision Network, SwissBorg, MyMetaverse, Age of Rust, and the PlayNFT Twitch plugin.Author
