This new hardware aims to simplify user engagement with Web3 technology, making it easier for gamers to interact with various blockchain applications.

Thompson noted that gaming serves as a 'sandbox' for exploring these technologies, highlighting that the focus extends beyond gaming itself.

Cheng also pointed out the advantages of blockchain for gamers, including item provenance, authenticity, and enhanced anti-cheat measures.

Acknowledging the historical challenges of onboarding gamers to Web3 systems, Thompson expressed optimism about improving the user experience.

Mysten Labs has announced the SuiPlay0X1 device, set to be delivered in the first half of 2025, which will allow users to play games on the Sui blockchain and PC.

Christian Thompson, chief information security officer at Mysten Labs, emphasized the importance of gaming as a platform for experimenting with technologies like AI, DeFi, and NFTs during the Future Blockchain Summit in Dubai.

Evan Cheng, CEO of Mysten Labs, believes that a breakthrough moment for crypto, akin to a 'ChatGPT moment,' is imminent, driven by innovation and meeting developer needs.

To enhance accessibility, Mysten Labs is developing a method for users to create wallets using their Facebook or Google accounts with a single click.

A recent survey by Elympics revealed that over 10% of gamers find the complexity of crypto wallets a significant barrier to engaging with Web3 games.

Despite being a new Layer 1 blockchain, Cheng is confident that Sui's unique approach will expand the overall market rather than just compete for existing market share.

Cheng described the SuiPlay0X1 as a 'software play' that emphasizes deep software integration, rather than being merely a hardware product.

Preorders for the SuiPlay0X1 have already begun, positioning it as a superior product for Web3 gamers due to its advanced software capabilities.
