Biomes Is Readying for Autonomous Worlds Domination
Biomes, an autonomous world project, is preparing to mount a major onchain challenge to Minecraft.
Redstone, an Ethereum Layer 2 centered around autonomous worlds and onchain games, has experienced a recent activity surge, much of which can be explained by the rise of Biomes.
An autonomous world project, Biomes is a fully onchain virtual environment, and its alpha release kicked off in October 2024. The vision? Become the virtual world with the largest GDP, i.e. economic activity.
