Metacade is building a decentralized gaming ecosystem on the Base network, offering an all-in-one platform for game discovery, competition, and development. Its infrastructure includes a no-code tournament engine and voice-enabled tooling, allowing users and devs to launch and play games seamlessly. This positions Metacade as a Web3-native gaming hub rather than just another GameFi token.
Through its partnership with Coinbase and Base, Metacade is launching a dedicated Layer‑3 Appchain tailored for onchain gaming. This Appchain uses $MCADE as its native gas token, enabling low-cost, high-speed transactions optimized for gaming environments. It reflects a strategic shift from dApp to infrastructure provider in the Web3 gaming stack.

Metacade’s governance revolves around Metagrants, a community-voting mechanism to fund new games with $MCADE. This approach decentralizes the creative direction of the platform while reinforcing token utility. It blends DAO principles with incentive-driven game development.
