Immutable (IMX) Passport Surpasses 1 Million Sign-ups, Eyes Further Growth

Immutable
(IMX)
Passport
has
recently
reached
a
significant
milestone
with
over
1
million
sign-ups,
according
to

immutable.com.
The
platform
is
poised
to
hit
1.5
million
sign-ups
soon,
marking
a
rapid
growth
trajectory
for
this
innovative
gaming
identity
and
wallet
solution.

Immutable
Passport
aims
to
solve
key
challenges
in
the
web3
gaming
space
by
making
games
more
accessible
for
mainstream
gamers
while
providing
developers
with
essential
tools
to
build
and
grow
their
web3
projects.
The
journey
to
1
million
sign-ups
took
six
months
to
reach
400,000
and
only
one
month
to
hit
the
million
mark.

Addressing
Developer
Needs

Two
years
ago,
Immutable
identified
a
recurring
issue
among
game
developers:
the
need
for
a
user-friendly
wallet
solution
to
onboard
mainstream
players.
Traditional
non-custodial
wallets
required
users
to
manage
complex
12-word
passphrases,
while
more
user-friendly
options
necessitated
games
to
take
custody
of
users’
funds,
a
responsibility
developers
were
reluctant
to
assume.

This
led
to
the
creation
of
Immutable
Passport,
a
non-custodial
wallet
designed
to
be
as
simple
to
use
as
a
social
media
login
while
ensuring
the
security
and
interoperability
required
for
web3
gaming.
The
solution
involved
eliminating
seed
phrases
and
complex
onboarding
processes,
ensuring
user
assets’
protection,
allowing
seamless
use
across
multiple
games
and
marketplaces,
and
supporting
millions
of
users
and
transactions.

Innovative
Partnerships
and
Technology

Immutable
partnered
with

Magic
Link
to
leverage
their
secure
key
management
solutions,
recognized
as
non-custodial
by
legal
experts.
This
collaboration
enabled
users
to
access
their
keys
through
familiar
login
methods
without
compromising
security.
Additionally,
the
development
of
Passport
Guardian
added
an
extra
layer
of
transaction
validation.

Proven
Impact
and
Adoption

Post-launch,
a
case
study
with
over
7,000
gamers
demonstrated
Passport’s
impact:

• Group
  A,
  using
  Passport
  for
  account
  creation,
  saw
  over
  double
  the
  completion
  rate
  compared
  to
  Group
  B,
  which
  used
  a
  traditional
  email
  and
  wallet
  creation
  process.
• The “Create
  a
  Passport”
  call-to-action
  was
  nearly
  as
  effective
  as
  the
  simple “Enter
  Email”
  prompt,
  with
  only
  a
  3%
  difference.
• 70%
  of
  gamers
  who
  chose
  the
  Passport
  flow
  signed
  up
  using
  their
  Google
  accounts.

The
launch
of
Immutable
zkEVM
in
January
2024
further
accelerated
Passport’s
growth,
creating
a
conducive
environment
for
exponential
adoption.
The
recent
launch
of
Guild
of
Guardians,
one
of
the
world’s
first
AAA
mobile
web3
games,
has
also
been
a
significant
catalyst
for
Passport
adoption.

Current
Offerings
and
Future
Prospects

Today,
Immutable
Passport
offers
several
key
features:

• One-click
  social
  logins
  for
  easy
  onboarding
• Automatic
  wallet
  creation
  upon
  signup
• Seamless
  in-game
  transactions
  without
  disruptive
  pop-ups
• Cross-game
  asset
  and
  currency
  management
• Enhanced
  security
  through
  multi-layered
  protection

Additionally,
Passport
now
enables
gas-free
transactions
for
players
on
Immutable
zkEVM,
allowing
games
and
marketplaces
to
sponsor
gas
fees
for
users.
This
removes
a
major
friction
point
in
web3
gaming,
treating
these
costs
like
traditional
server
expenses
and
potentially
increasing
player
adoption
and
revenue.

Immutable
Passport
aims
to
become
the
industry
standard
for
gaming
wallets,
with
over
300
games
signed
up
to
use
its
ecosystem.
The
platform’s
success
in
reaching
1
million
users
marks
just
the
beginning
of
its
journey
to
bring
web3
gaming
to
the
masses
by
solving
challenges
around
user-friendliness,
security,
and
interoperability.

As
more
games
launch
and
the
ecosystem
grows,
Passport
will
continue
to
evolve,
striving
to
make
web3
gaming
accessible,
secure,
and
enjoyable
for
everyone.
The
future
of
gaming
is
here,
powered
by
Immutable
Passport.
