ATMTA Introduces Zink, an SVM Layer 1 Set to Introduce Decentralized Identity in Gaming

ATMTA, the creators of the hit blockchain game Star Atlas, have now launched a new Solana Virtual Machine Layer 1 blockchain known as Zink. As per the announcement, the update is set to bring innovation to Solana Virtual Machine digital identity and decentralized ecosystems. Zink made its way to the market at 12:00 PM PST and introduces a patent-pending zero-knowledge profile system.

The system offers users a high level of control, security, and ease of use. Much of the project’s details can be found in the now-live whitepaper, and according to the information provided, it could bring new forms of innovation to the Web3 ecosystem.

The key feature of Zink is its zProfile, described as a cutting-edge system that redefines how users interact with blockchain apps. It enables automated transactions without repetitive approvals, similar to moves seen in Star Wars, all while keeping assets locked tight. Furthermore, this zero-knowledge “player profile” lets users set global permissions across apps and streamlines high-frequency tasks without sacrificing security.

Leveraging Solana Virtual Machine for Efficiency

Zink leverages the Solana Virtual Machine for a fast, cost-effective, and scalable Layer 1 network. Zink’s interoperable ecosystem is designed to handle all major tasks, from gaming to designing, at high speeds. Powering the ecosystem is the ZINK token, whose utility lies in powering transactions, staking, consensus, and rewarding users and validators for driving the network forward.

Linear Roadmap to Create a Strong Gaming Environment

ATMTA’s roadmap has also generated quite a bit of buzz in the social space. Starting in September, XP tracking will begin, and users will start earning points through Star Atlas gameplay, the SAGE 4X browser game, or Holosim, a free-to-play SAGE port.

Players will also be able to collect experience points (XP) by locking ATLAS and POLIS in Star Atlas DAO lockers or trading on the Galactic Marketplace (the native marketplace of the Star Atlas ecosystem).

A massive crypto airdrop has also been planned for December, distributing 10% of ZINK tokens to early supporters. Zink’s mainnet genesis will also go live in the same month, which will lead to the Star Atlas game fully running on the network.

“Zink is more than a blockchain, it’s a vision where your digital identity shapes a decentralized world,” says Michael Wagner, ATMTA’s CEO. “Your avatar carries meaning, status, and value, connecting you emotionally to the network in ways today’s blockchains can’t match.”

Conclusion

The ATMTA Zink update is worthy of note. With the integration of the Solana Virtual Machine, the project is now set to evolve in a more unique, game-centric direction. How fast the project evolves will become evident when December arrives.
