Avalanche has enjoyed a blistering performance since the year began, and March has been one of its best months. To increase its userbase, Avalanche welcomed multiple new projects and struck a series of partnerships to further its community.
As the Avalanche community prepares for its Barcelona summit in a few days, the scalable blockchain platform recently witnessed some updates. Here are some of the key events that took place on Avalanche during the third week of March 2022
1) Defy Trends Expands to Avalanche
Defy Trends, an AI-powered analytics platform, announced its plans to expand to Avalanche. The platform, which uses 1M+ sources of data, will offer its users a chance to earn from their research contribution and learning about crypto. To evaluate sentiment, Defy Trends uses both on-chain and off-chain data, including monitoring viral social media channels like Reddit and Twitter.
Furthermore, Defy Trends intends to assist traders and investors in making more informed investment decisions based on statistics.
Imge Su Cetin, CEO of Defy Trends, noted that the platform chose Avalanche’s network due to its fast contract and low fees for its users. He said: “is attractive for our users, as our audience is mainstream crypto adopters who are looking for tools that can be used in a simplified way, at low cost.”
Finally, Defy Trends is currently accepting beta testers. The project will be completely operational at the end of Q2 2022.
.@Defy_Trends, an AI-powered analytics platform and research hub with 1M+ sources of data, is expanding to #Avalanche! Users will soon be able to earn rewards by both contributing their own original research and learning about crypto subjects.https://t.co/p57KWy53I5

2) Wildlife Studio Signs for the Multiverse Program
Avalanche announced its Multiverse initiative last week, and several projects seem interested in the scheme. Wildlife Studios is one of the world’s foremost game developers. The gaming platform announced plans to branch into Web3 gaming by launching on Avalanche. As a result, players of its hit game, Castle Crush, will enjoy a series of benefits and opportunities.
Also, one of the product directors at Wildlife Studios, Fernando Sette, explained why the game developers chose to launch on Avalanche’s network: “The high performance and deeply customizable nature of Avalanche has removed the obstacles to making Web3 games that excite, intrigue, and engage our players.”
Wildlife studios will capitalize on Avalanche’s features to improve the overall gamer’s experience. Castle Crush players can now use trade and sell cards and earn from them. Ava Labs President John Wu believes subnets would advance blockchain gaming, and Castle Crush will be a prime example.
.@wildlifestudios, one of the 10 largest mobile game developers, is joining the #Avalanche Multiverse program and expanding into #Web3 gaming on its own subnet! @playcastlecrush players will soon be able to use, trade and loan card #NFTs, and earn tokens.https://t.co/Kcg7gLa8pk
