CARV Protocol is expanding its reach in gaming and AI, focusing on enhancing security, scalability, and governance. Recent partnerships with Base and EigenLayer aim to reduce costs, while collaborations with Monad and Nuffle are set to improve scalability and data management. CARV also integrates with XAI for decentralized governance and uses Avail’s data availability to strengthen its infrastructure.
CARV Play, the protocol’s AI-powered app, is gaining traction with over 9.5 million registered users and 1.3 million daily active users. It offers gamer profiling, social interactions, and game discovery. Collaborations with Gitcoin Passport and LayerZero improve security and cross-chain functionality, while Inferium AI’s platform enhances real-time data solutions.
CARV Labs, a $50M accelerator launched in September, is driving mass adoption of CARV’s data protocol. With backing from HashKey Capital, Consensys, and strategic support from Intella X, a web3 gaming platform by NEOWIZ, the accelerator is fostering innovation. Incubated projects are set to gain early funding and support through Intella X’s crowdfunding platform, Alphastarter.
The accelerator’s influence is already seen with BANANA, an idle game on the TON network, attracting 12 million users within a month. CARV is also strengthening its presence in the TON ecosystem through a partnership with Telgather to boost play-to-earn and social-to-earn models on Telegram.
