GUN Token Expands to Solana | Off the Grid Doubles Down Amid Tough Crypto Gaming Climate
-
Hey folks,Big news from the Off the Grid team — the GUN token is officially expanding from Avalanche’s GUNZ network to Solana!
This multi-chain move is all about improving accessibility, market reach, and keeping up momentum in a gaming space that’s seen its fair share of turbulence lately.
Why the Expansion?
With the GUN token now available on Solana, it’s clear that Gunzilla is pushing for broader adoption and lower friction for new users. The goal? Tap into different ecosystems, grow the player base, and offer more flexibility across chains.
Yeah, the token’s price has dipped recently (CoinGecko shows a notable slide), BUT that hasn't slowed down the in-game economy. The marketplace still pulled in $666K+ in NFT sales over the last 30 days — including high-ticket skins like the $5,499 Tacoma Pioneer. Demand for rare, flex-worthy digital assets is still very real.
What’s Next? OpenSea Integration + Bridging
Existing GUN tokens on Avalanche will still work as usual. A bridge to Solana is rolling out to allow seamless transfers. And — perhaps the biggest move — OpenSea integration is on the horizon. Expect more visibility, liquidity, and new opportunities for skin trading. 👀🔥
This kind of interoperability is key to long-term sustainability in Web3 gaming.
🧨 Industry Still Shaky, But Some Are BuildingThe bigger picture? 2025 hasn’t been easy for crypto gaming:
OpenSeason (meme battle royale) shut down last week. Mighty Action Heroes and Random Games also pulled the plug. Legal drama still ongoing around projects like CryptoZoo.
But there’s light too:
Bravo Ready Games scooped up Solana's Honeyland. Remix raised $5M from Archetype. Wilder World x Lamborghini sold 600 NFT cars in record time. 🚗💨 Mythical Games, LumiWave, and Revolving Games are all rolling out new drops and tokens (NFL Rivals Y3, Samurai Shodown R, RCADE on Arbitrum, etc.).
🧠 TL;DR
GUN token now live on Solana. NFT sales still booming, even with market dips. OpenSea integration incoming = more exposure + liquidity. Industry's tough, but serious builders are still pushing.
Let’s see if GUN and Gunzilla can ride this wave.
