As a seasoned crypto investor with a knack for spotting promising projects, I find the recent developments by Pirate Nation and Lombard particularly intriguing. The launch of Boss Chain by Pirate Nation is an exciting step towards their vision of supporting millions of players, leveraging the advantages of Arbitrum Orbit for scalability and interoperability. It’s a significant leap forward in horizontal scaling, which could pave the way for a new generation of social and consumer dapps.

They’ve described it as “the next phase in their multi-chain strategy aimed at accommodating over 100 million players.” According to the team, “Boss Chain, similar to the initial Apex, is an Arbitrum Orbit chain, providing effortless scalability and marketplace compatibility. This is a significant advancement for horizontal scaling, which is crucial for demanding applications with high on-chain computations, like upcoming social or consumer dapps.”
