About ImmutableX
Immutable has positioned itself as a pioneering layer-two scaling solution for Ethereum-based NFTs, with IMX serving as the native token on the Immutable X blockchain, focused specifically on gaming and NFT markets. Immutable X has established itself as a prominent blockchain for Web3 gaming, powering NFTs and in-game transactions for titles like Gods Unchained and Guild of Guardians.
The platform’s exclusive concentration on gaming and NFTs has attracted projects from other chains, such as Tatsumeeko and Star Heroes, previously hosted on Terra. Following the collapse of Luna stablecoin in 2022, Immutable gained favor, leading to migrations from projects like Delysium and Ember Sword from Polygon to Immutable.
In a recent development, Immutable sealed a significant partnership with Ubisoft, a gaming giant known for blockbuster franchises like Assassin’s Creed and Prince of Persia. The announcement of the Ubisoft partnership on November 9 triggered a market rally for Immutable’s native token IMX, resulting in a notable price surge of over 40% in the past week.
