Pixotchi: A New Era of Onchain Gaming on Base

Pixotchi has expanded its onchain casino with a new game option. The v1.6.6 update introduces **BlackJack** to the Casino building, joining the previously released Roulette game. **Key Features:** - Play BlackJack using **$SEED** tokens - Fully onchain gameplay on Base L2 - Available in the Casino building within your town The Casino building was first introduced in the v1.6.5 update in January, allowing players to construct it on their land using $PIXOTCHI tokens. The development team is asking the community for input on which game should be added next to the Casino. All casino games operate with $SEED, Pixotchi's native token with a fixed supply of 20 million. The games run entirely onchain, maintaining the project's commitment to transparent, decentralized gaming on Base.

Pixotchi has released version 1.6.5, introducing a **Casino building** that players can construct on their land using $PIXOTCHI tokens. **Key Features:** - Fully onchain **Roulette game** with $SEED token betting - Additional games and betting tokens planned for future releases - Bug fixes for the SpinLeaf minigame - General app improvements The update builds on recent improvements from v1.6.47, which restored ambient soundtracks, grouped marketplace items by function, and added daily ETH reward statistics. Players can now enjoy gambling mechanics alongside their digital gardening experience on Base. [Play Pixotchi](http://mini.pixotchi.tech)

**PIXOTCHI** is preparing to launch its creator coin with launch details now visible in-game for asset holders only. **Key Features:** - Deflationary tokenomics - Deep in-game utility integration - Staking capabilities - Ecosystem governance functionality **Anti-Sniping Strategy:** Launch timing is exclusively shared with players who hold in-game assets, reducing external speculation and bot activity. The project aims to **redefine creator coins** by focusing on gaming utility rather than social influence metrics. Access the game at [mini.pixotchi.tech](http://mini.pixotchi.tech) to participate in the upcoming launch.

Pixotchi released app update v1.5.99 focusing on **security patches and infrastructure improvements**. **Key Updates:** - ERC-8021 integration for onchain transaction tracking - Faster RPC handling and improved load times - Updated Next.js and React to patch security vulnerabilities - Stricter claim flow with manual CONFIRM step **Future Groundwork:** Foundation laid for native **$SOL and $ETH support**, which will bypass $SEED swaps for smoother user experience. Additional bug fixes and stability improvements included.

**Pixotchi** has developed a custom integration with the new **Base ↔ Solana bridge**, allowing players to interact with their Base app directly through native Solana wallets. **Key Innovation:** - Eliminates traditional multi-step process (bridge funds → switch chains → swap → interact) - **Single Solana transaction** handles: bridge/relay $SOL → swap → call game contracts → return results - Claims to be potentially **first-of-its-kind** integration in the space **For Builders:** - New primitives offer significant opportunities to expand userbase - Solana described as "great soil to grow into" - Base remains the foundation for building - Warning against missing real opportunities amid market noise The integration represents a **zero-friction** approach to cross-chain gaming, streamlining user experience significantly.
