GAIMIN February 2025 Ecosystem Recap: A Month of Evolution

February was another great month for GAIMIN, filled with transformative changes, cutting-edge product launches, high-profile partnerships, and widespread industry recognition. Here are the key highlights of what happened in the GAIMIN ecosystem this past month.

Leadership Evolution: A New CEO Takes the Helm

Lisbon HQ Meeting

The biggest news last month for most people in our community would be the change in leadership at GAIMIN. In a significant organizational change, GAIMIN saw a new CEO stepping in to steer GAIMIN toward the next phase of its growth, focusing henceforth on enhancing our product offerings and expanding GAIMIN’s impact in gaming and Web3. Our new CEO, Nokkvi Dan Ellidason, formerly GAIMIN’s CFO, got to work on this new phase for GAIMIN immediately, holding his first board meeting barely a day after the official announcement. Our former CEO, Martin Speight, remains a key figure in the company as he now upsteps to an Executive Chairman role for GAIMIN, where he will be helping GAIMIN drive high-impact initiatives and build huge partnerships, with his years of entrepreneurial experience. For more information on how GAIMIN has strengthened its leadership structure with this strategic organizational change, read the official announcement article here.

Groundbreaking Product Updates

The Launch of the GAIMIN Smart Wallet (GSW)

One of the biggest product highlights of February was the launch of the long-awaited GAIMIN Smart Wallet (GSW), which was also featured by top media outlets like CoinTelegraph and CoinMarketCap. The GAIMIN Smart Wallet is a seamless and secure gateway to the future of gaming and Web3; a wallet that incorporates key Web3 features in a Web2 user-familiar interface. Designed with simplicity and security at its core, the GSW enables gamers to interact with Web3 assets without the complexities of seed phrases and secure access. Learn more about GSW here.

SSO Migration Period Ends

Leading to the launch of GSW, GAIMIN announced the launch of SSO, a key feature for our Smart Wallet redefining account access across our entire ecosystem. On February 28, GAIMIN concluded the Single Sign-On (SSO) migration process, simplifying asset migration between pre-SSO GAIMIN accounts and the new one to be created by the user post-SSO launch. With the SSO  migration period expired, users who did not migrate but wish to retrieve their assets must now do so manually.

Community Engagement: More AMAs internally and externally

GAIMIN’s community engagement remains strong with more insightful AMA sessions, including a newly launched “GAIM Time” series, where we spotlight one of our game partners on the GAIMIN, featuring them in a collaborative “Live Play” session. Our AMAs in February include:

  • CEO AMA: We held a mega-AMA with our new and former CEOs to share insights into GAIMIN’s future, after these major organizational changes. Watch the full AMA here on YouTube, where our CEOs played each other with the guest CEO of Katana Inu, the game of the day (also available on the GAIMIN platform).
  • EFAS AMA: We also had another GAIM Time AMA which introduced another game on the GAIMIN platform, Earth From Another Sun (EFAS), to our community. Tune in here to watch the full AMA, if you missed it.

The GAIM Time AMA series is also a call to gaming projects to launch on GAIMIN to get a chance to access a new community of over 500k ready-to-play gamers and get a free opportunity to further introduce your game to them LIVE. Check out our Game Dev Portal (GDP) to launch your game today to a massive community for free!

With a new leadership direction, powerful new tools like GSW, and expanding industry recognition, GAIMIN continues to lead the charge in revolutionizing gaming, cloud technology, and Web3.

Key Takeaways from Our “CEOs Live Play & Chat” AMA

Last Thursday, we hosted our first-ever "Play & Chat" AMA in style with CEOs (former and current). This was a special live session during which our community got to hang out with our new CEO, Nokkvi. We then dived deep into the GAIMIN ecosystem and the world of Gaming, with the CEO of Katana Inu in attendance. The CEOs played Katana Inu LIVE while discussing the key subjects and answering the community’s burning questions.

Why Web3 Game Launchers like GAIMIN are the Future of Game Distribution

For years, game developers have relied on traditional distribution platforms like Steam and the Epic Games Store to reach players worldwide. Rightfully so, these platforms have delivered hundreds of thousands of games for developers worldwide. While these platforms provide essential visibility, they also have several drawbacks: high revenue cuts, discoverability challenges, limited engagement tools, and, most increasingly, a higher barrier to entry/launch.

Introducing the GAIMIN Smart Wallet (GSW): Your Gateway to the Future of Gaming and Web3
