Description

Pylons is a sovereign layer 1 blockchain, a mobile wallet app, and an SDK designed to enable web3 developers to build freemium, mass-market experiences. It aims to solve the user onboarding problem in web3 by allowing free-to-play mobile users to engage without needing to KYC or purchase tokens initially. The platform uses a commission-based model instead of gas fees, allowing users to make in-app purchases with fiat currency via a credit card. Pylons also functions as an interchain fiat gateway, with plans to partner with other chains like Stargaze to facilitate buying and selling of assets like NFTs for USD. The native token, Bedrock ($ROCK), provides economic incentives for validators and builders. The platform supports developers through a grant program and is a member of the Blockchain Game Alliance.
