Beamable has announced the launch of the Beamable Foundation, an independent organization focused on transforming the gaming industry through open-source technology and a Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network (DePIN).
By open-sourcing Beamable’s proven backend technology and leveraging blockchain, the Foundation aims to create a scalable, secure, and community-owned infrastructure for game development. “Open-source software is frequently higher quality, more secure, and better supported than closed-source alternatives,” said Jon Radoff, CEO of Beamable, underscoring the mission to advance innovation through collaboration.
The Beamable Network’s DePIN is a groundbreaking infrastructure model, enabling participants to contribute computing power, storage, and network resources in exchange for token-based rewards. Unlike other DePIN projects, Beamable starts with a thriving ecosystem, boasting millions of users and billions of API calls already utilizing its backend. Designed for both blockchain-based “Web3” games and traditional “Web2” games, the network bridges accessibility and innovation, making it a versatile solution for an industry projected to generate $200 billion in revenue by 2025.
With a focus on community ownership, enterprise-grade reliability, and interoperability, the Beamable Foundation aims to deliver a next-generation virtual hyperscaler for games. Its open-source ecosystem will streamline game development and encourage global collaboration, ensuring developers can innovate while leveraging robust backend services.
