• NFT music platform creating an intertwined distributed ecosystem • Polygon to provide additional software support and potential funding to emerging musicians on the Token||Traxx platform • Token||Traxx to have cross-chain bridge with existing partner, Zilliqa
Polygon, an Ethereum scaling platform onboarding millions to Web3, today announces a partnership with NFT music platform Token||Traxx™ ahead of its Token Generation Event (TGE) this month. The collaboration will allow Token||Traxx to leverage Polygon's low-cost and interoperable infrastructure to build out its music NFT marketplace.
Polygon Studios — the NFT and gaming arm of leading Ethereum scaling protocol Polygon — will also be offering grant funding to Token||Traxx's new, independent music creator economy which is set to make a seismic paradigm shift within the music marketplace. The Polygon foundation will support the development of the Token||Traxx software and their emerging artists as they continue to grow their Web3 creator economy.
Token||Traxx is a new marketplace that redefines and enhances the value of music, by supporting and financially benefiting the entire music community using Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) technology.
Token||Traxx will be multi-chain, using Polygon along with other networks including its strategic founder partner Zilliqa which it will bridge to later this year.
"NFTs have the opportunity to positively disrupt the music industry, providing creators with a greater share of the distribution rights while conveying verifiable ownership to fans. By leveraging Polygon to accomplish this goal, Token||Traxx unlocks the full potential of the Web3 creator economy and sidesteps the prohibitive transaction fees and latency associated with Ethereum," said Ishan Negi, Chief of Staff, Polygon Studios.
“Token||Traxx is delighted to join forces with Polygon,” said Tim Gentry, Chief Operating Officer and co-founder of Token||Traxx and formerly global revenue director at the Guardian. “Polygon's sustainable and ultra low-cost blockchain and interoperable ecosystem presents the perfect launchpad for the project. With cross-chain technology and cross-chain bridges in place Token||Traxx will run with increased elasticity, providing users with freedom of choice.
“Through Polygon's novel Ethereum scaling solution, we will be getting excellent user experience with high-speed transactions, near-zero gas fees and superb community governance. Cross-chain capabilities will also maximise secondary NFT markets for us,” summarised Gentry.

Blizzard has shared new details regarding its plans for Overwatch 2, which include getting the PvP component of the shooter into players' hands while it continues work on the PvE side. That will begin with a closed alpha today, followed by a beta that includes a wider pool of players starting in April.
Game director Aaron Keller shared the information as part of a new developer update video. The main takeaway is the "decoupling" of the PvP and PvE aspects of Overwatch 2, which is meant to "get new PvP content into your hands sooner, while we continue to work on PvE," according to an accompanying blog post.
The closed alpha test for Overwatch 2's PvP that begins today will likely not be something you can participate in. It will feature Blizzard employees, Overwatch League players (OWL was already set to use Overwatch 2 for its upcoming season), and "a few other select groups" ahead of a beta that will start in "late April" for PC players in all regions.
That April test will be a closed beta, but you can now sign up to request access to it on the game's official website. Access will come in waves, so even if you don't get in right away, you may still be allowed in later.
More details on what to expect from the beta are still to be confirmed, but Blizzard did say it will feature the new Push game mode, four new maps, a new Damage hero (Sojourn), and reworks to various heroes. It will also, of course, feature the new 5v5 gameplay style being introduced for Overwatch 2. When it does arrive, the PvP mode will integrate with that of the first game, allowing Overwatch 1 players to use new heroes and play on new maps.
Overwatch 2 does not yet have a release date. Alongside Diablo 4, Blizzard delayed its release late last year, and we may not see either game launch until 2023. All of this comes amidst the ongoing Microsoft acquisition of Activision Blizzard, which itself follows disturbing reports of a toxic work environment at the company.
