🛠️Blockchain Infrastructure: Powered by Immutable zkEVM

emoji™ Marble Dash runs on Immutable zkEVM, a zero-knowledge rollup that combines Ethereum-level security with high-performance scalability optimized for games. This infrastructure supports fast, gasless, and transparent on-chain interactions, while keeping the blockchain layer invisible to players who simply want to race.

☑️ Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT)

All $EMJ tokens and digital assets in the emoji™ Marble Dash ecosystem are issued, transferred, and stored using industry-standard blockchain technology.

How DLT Works in emoji™ Marble Dash

Issuance:

• $EMJ tokens use the ERC-20 standard. • Marbles, Ability Cards, emoji™ Boosters, and Skins follow ERC-721 (NFTs) or ERC-1155 (SFTs), depending on their rarity classification.

Transfers: All on-chain actions, such as racing entry fees, prize pools, marketplace trades, and minting, run through audited smart contracts. Transactions are public, transparent, and immutable.

Storage: Minted assets are held in user-owned, non-custodial wallets. The platform integrates with Immutable Passport for streamlined wallet creation.

User Access: Players interact with blockchain features through an in-game interface. Transactions are gasless for users, and private keys remain fully under their control.

☑️ Strategic Advantages

Gasless Transactions

Immutable zkEVM uses a gas-sponsorship model that removes the need for players to purchase ETH or pay gas fees. All blockchain actions, including Ranked Mode entry fees, prize payouts, NFT minting, and marketplace trading, are completely gasless. This eliminates a major barrier for traditional gamers and keeps the experience smooth and accessible.

High Transaction Throughput

Immutable zkEVM processes thousands of transactions per second, far beyond Ethereum mainnet’s capacity. This is essential for a competitive game where:

• thousands of races finish simultaneously, • each race triggers prize distribution, and • players are constantly minting, upgrading, and trading items.

The network ensures blockchain operations never slow down gameplay or limit platform growth.

Ethereum-Level Security

As a zero-knowledge rollup, Immutable zkEVM inherits Ethereum’s Proof-of-Stake security. Transactions are batched and verified off-chain before submitting cryptographic proofs to Ethereum. This provides strong protection for in-game assets that hold real value, ensuring fair competition and tamper-proof prize payouts.

Immutable Passport Integration

Immutable Passport provides a secure, game-focused wallet with social login (email, Google, Apple). Players can race casually, then move into Ranked Mode or the marketplace without dealing with seed phrases or manual wallet setup.

KYC is the only additional step required to unlock all blockchain features.

Unity SDK Integration

The Immutable Unity SDK brings native blockchain support directly into the game client. This eliminates the need for custom networking code and ensures smooth performance on mobile and desktop platforms.

☑️ Environmental Impact

Immutable zkEVM inherits Ethereum’s Proof-of-Stake consensus mechanism, which reduces energy consumption by over 99.9% compared to Proof-of-Work systems. Zero-knowledge rollups further lower per-transaction energy use by batching and compressing transactions before sending proofs to Layer 1.

While the system has a small carbon footprint, Immutable offsets emissions through sustainability initiatives and maintains a commitment to carbon neutrality.

☑️ KYC Verification for Blockchain Features

Players must complete a one-time KYC process before entering Ranked Mode or accessing the marketplace. This age (18+) and identity verification ensures compliance with regulatory requirements related to competitive rewards and anti-money-laundering rules.

Once verified, players gain permanent access to all blockchain-enabled features with no further interruptions.
