2 hours ago Today French headquartered games company Ubisoft announced it is now a corporate baker on the Tezos public blockchain. What is a corporate baker? You’ve probably heard about minting new blocks on proof of work blockchains like Bitcoin or Ethereum v1. Well, baking is the equivalent on proof of stake blockchain Tezos. The games company is working with French Tezos developer Nomadic Labs, which is also indirectly involved in French central bank digital currency trials, as well as a new euro stablecoin. “We’re happy to be joining the Tezos ecosystem as a corporate baker,” said Nicolas Pouard, Ubisoft Blockchain Initiative Director. “Ubisoft believes that blockchain has the potential to bring new possibilities to players and developers alike, and this new collaboration will allow us to pursue our innovation efforts with an ecosystem that aligns with our environmental-friendly approach thanks to its proof-of-stake consensus algorithm.”
