The situation

MatchNet is a platform for peer-to-peer skill challenges and sponsored tournaments on the TRON blockchain. Players, tournament creators and game developers earn daily revenue from tokens they mine and gather, and sponsors gain a loyal community.

What we did

We analyzed competitors, the market and similar solutions, and walked imagined users through every stage, from onboarding to winning a challenge. We built the app with a user-focused interface and engaging content, gamification to improve the experience, and a flexible, consistent UI system that makes future interfaces simpler to build.

Players can create challenges and admins can create tournaments with prize pools provided by partners and advertisers. Users track wins, rankings and tournaments, and join communities.

The result

MatchNet gives players a personalized gaming experience and gives sponsors a way to reach engaged communities.

About the business

MatchNet is a TRON-based App for skilled P2P challenges and sponsor tournaments. Users can earn a piece of the daily revenue as they engage with the platform. Game developers and players gain daily income based on mined and gathered tokens.

TRON blockchain uses the TRC-10 token. Delegated Proof of Stake makes TRON more scalable and reduces transaction fees within the network. By playing a TRON-based game, users can make transactions quickly and cheaply.
