Web3 & Enterprise·January 05, 2024, 5:15 AM

Streamlining game development

Hive allows developers to focus on content development by providing functions for game launch and operation in a single software development kit (SDK). It covers all systems needed to run a game, including billing, gameplay across multiple platforms, global login and verification, compliance, support, analytics, promotions, push notifications, community management and blockchain middleware. It is utilized in over 150 games and 41 corporate clients with some 100 million annual users.

 

Robust security measures

To receive the ISMS-P certification, companies are evaluated based on 101 different criteria, including organizational structure, management of employees and facilities, security of information processing systems and more areas related to handling personal information.

 

"Com2uS Platform and Hive have established and promoted world-class security policies," said Choi Seok-won, CEO of Com2uS Platform. "We will continue to do our best to create an environment where users and customers worldwide can safely enjoy our content."

 

Com2uS Platform also revealed that it runs an office dedicated to information protection, which manages data from Com2uS games and external clients. The company also strives to improve its technological capabilities for enhancing security and conducts annual company-wide training for all employees to raise security awareness.

 

Since 2017, Com2uS Platform has retained its ISMS certification – similar to the ISMS-P but without personal information security standards – to safeguard the information of its users and customers.

FTX Japan Moves Towards FTX 2.0 via Hiring Drive

FTX Japan Moves Towards FTX 2.0 via Hiring DriveFTX Japan, a subsidiary company of the collapsed FTX crypto exchange business, is embarking on a hiring spree to bolster its team and drive the FTX 2.0 initiative forward.News of the new recruitment initiative broke via a tweet from Seth Melamed, FTX Japan’s Chief Operations Officer. Melamed wrote: “FTX Japan is hiring! Our team is exploring the leading edge of technology including AI to develop new crypto tools, non-custodial CEX trading, Proof of Solvency, and leading crypto derivatives products.”On the firm’s careers page on its website, FTX Japan details that it is looking to hire a Flutter Engineer to work on mobile applications, customer service staff and a marketer. Additionally, the company is looking to offer an internship.Photo by Tianshu Liu on UnsplashAdvancing FTX 2.0This latest recruitment initiative comes on the back of news that broke last week that the FTX Debtor led by bankruptcy specialist John J. Ray III, had decided not to follow through with the sale of FTX Japan. Most FTX creditors have been calling for the relaunch of the exchange business, dubbed FTX 2.0. Monthly expense filings have shown that various advisors to the Unsecured Creditors Committee (UCC) and professionals working for FTX itself have been spending quite a lot of time working on that possibility.Such a relaunch has as yet not been officially confirmed. However, it is looking increasingly likely that there’s a strong commitment to advancing the FTX 2.0 initiative, and with that, FTX Japan is actively seeking new talent.A restructuring plan is expected to be filed before the end of the month. This will likely move the notion of FTX 2.0 from a matter of speculation to something more tangible. That said, even if it forms part of that plan filing, due to the cumbersome workings of the US bankruptcy process, it’s unlikely that the overall international business will be relaunched until 2024. FTX Japan is solvent and so, it could be back in operation well before then.FTT token speculationEarlier this week, a beta version of a claims filing system was put online, although not officially launched. News of this development led to speculative interest in FTX’s exchange token, FTT.On Tuesday, the token increased in value by 26% within a matter of hours. Pricing has since cooled, and at the time of publication, the token had a unit price of $1.52. Crypto certainly garners speculative interest as this price action demonstrates. It remains to be seen until further clarification is provided by the FTX Debtor and the bankruptcy court in Delaware in the United States as to whether FTT will even feature in the future plans of a restructured business.FTX was very much the standout black swan event within crypto in 2022. However, it’s clear that its story remains unfinished. In the months ahead, we’re likely to hear more about the future plans for the business, in what could become quite the redemption story.
