#BuilderSeries: Powering the Onchain Gaming and AI Stack on The Root Network with Gen3
A Trio of Products. One Unified Vision.
Gen3 is the team behind three of the most critical and visible products built directly on TRN:
🔹 Tradeverse – A purpose-built NFT marketplace and native DEX interface that streamlines the trading of onchain gaming assets and AI-powered NFTs. With a focus on speed, usability, and community alignment, Tradeverse is rapidly becoming the go-to platform for digital asset liquidity on TRN.
🔹 aigent.run – A no-code AI agent and token deployer that dramatically lowers the barrier to entry for building on TRN. Users can spin up functional AI agents or deploy tokens using $ROOT, all without touching a single line of code. It’s the kind of onboarding layer that can transform curiosity into real onchain action.
🔹 Zerpmon – A collectible creature card game inspired by nostalgic battle mechanics, now fully reimagined for the blockchain era. With NFTs and native tokens tied directly into gameplay, Zerpmon offers an accessible, yet deep gaming experience native to The Root Network.
Why Build on TRN? A Strategic Shift from XRPL to the Future of Onchain AI + Gaming
“We chose The Root Network because of its native XRP support, in-built AI infrastructure, and Futureverse’s commitment to creating a truly optimized ecosystem for onchain consumer and gaming applications,” says Shen.
Coming from XRPL, the Gen3 team saw a clear opportunity: to evolve into an ecosystem that not only preserves the utility and liquidity of XRP, but also supercharges it with next-gen infrastructure. With TRN’s multi-token gas economy, AI-native functionality (like the NFI pallet), and deep integration with the Futureverse metaverse stack, the decision wasn’t just about technology—it was about alignment.
“We're not just deploying products,” Shen adds. “We're building the rails that allow users to interact with and benefit from this ecosystem in powerful new ways.”
Gen3’s Role: Infrastructure, Innovation, and Iteration
Gen3 is more than a product studio. It’s an ecosystem enabler.
Their infrastructure supports the most fundamental needs of a thriving onchain economy:
Trading both NFTs and tokens via a native marketplace and DEX
Deploying agents and tokens without technical knowledge
Delivering immersive, token-native gaming experiences
But what truly sets Gen3 apart is their ethos: build in public, iterate fast, and stay embedded within the community.
“We’ve been active in TRN since day one. We listen, we build, we ship. Whether it’s feedback from gamers or needs from developers, we pride ourselves on delivering quickly and meaningfully.”
That community-first approach also extends to Gen3’s broader impact on TRN’s developer ecosystem. The team actively supports developer relations for the network, working hands-on with builders—large and small—to resolve technical issues, navigate integrations, and bring new ideas to life. They are also consistently sourcing and onboarding new builders into the network, expanding TRN’s reach and depth across the Web3 space.
What’s Next: AI Agents, Onchain UX, and the Return of Untamed Isles
Looking ahead, Gen3 has no intention of slowing down. The team is preparing to launch a new generation of AI agents capable of performing complex onchain actions across TRN with simple natural language prompts—bringing the dream of “prompt-to-function” closer to reality.
They’re also working on the highly anticipated revamp of Untamed Isles, a richly detailed, open-world MMORPG that will now feature deep integration with The Root Network. This marks a significant step in bringing immersive, mainstream-level games into the fully onchain world.
“We believe Web3 games shouldn’t just live on blockchain—they should thrive on it. And that means giving users seamless access, real utility, and experiences worth coming back for.”
🚀 Gen3 is not just building on The Root Network. They’re building for it—and with it.
Whether you're a gamer, a trader, or a developer, chances are your journey on TRN is already touching something Gen3 has built. And from the looks of it, that’s just the beginning.
