Crypto Industry News:

The international IT company Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) has joined the Blockchain Game Alliance and has entered into two new partnership agreements to help use technology in the industry.

The published press release revealed that the chip giant is working with Blockchain Robot Cache and ULTRA technology providers - both are working on developing and servicing Blockchain-based online gaming markets. These markets aim to establish new, secure purchasing options and distribution channels for game publishers and users.

Blockchain Game Alliance (BGA) is an organization involved in adopting Blockchain technology in games by promoting the creation of common standards, facilitating networking and knowledge sharing, and encouraging collaboration and implementation of best practices.

AMD is reportedly the first major hardware manufacturer to join the Alliance, which owns the token creator Enjin Fig and veteran of Blockchain EverdreamSoft games.

According to the press release, both markets will integrate AMD graphics cards and processor technology for a variety of purposes, including back-end servers and Blockchain infrastructure. Apparently, AMD Ryzen processors and Radeon graphics cards have been designed to ensure optimal cryptographic computing performance.

AMD claims that its processor and GPU technology will serve as a powerful engine for Blockchain and gaming loads. The hardware manufacturer will also provide solid security protection that will help protect digital content from a range of online attacks.
