The Beam ecosystem is a community-driven chain and ecosystem where gamers and developers collaborate to shape the future of the gaming industry. Beam Network is an open-source sovereign blockchain network focused on gaming. BEAM token is the native currency used within the Beam Network to pay for transactions and interact with smart contracts on the Beam Network, facilitating a seamless, immersive gaming experience.

Momentarily, Beam operates as an Avalanche subnet. In its developer preview mode, Beam employs a reputation-based Proof of Authority (PoA) consensus mechanism, enhanced with the Snowman protocol, which entrusts a selected group of reputable authorities to authenticate transactions and ensure the integrity of the blockchain.

In its developer preview mode, Beam operates under a reputation-based consensus method termed Proof of Authority (PoA), implying that one needs to acquire specific rights to build on it. These rights are provided by a 4 out of 8 multi-signature spread across various contributors of The Beam Foundation.

Beam (BEAM) is available on various centralized exchanges? such as Binance or Gate.io. Our Beam Markets page provides live BEAM prices, historical data, and market insights for informed trading.

What sets Beam apart is its compatibility with Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), a highly advanced computational emulator that supports smart contract coding in Solidity. This cross-platform alignment allows developers to seamlessly port Ethereum-based applications onto Beam, opening a world of possibilities in building immersive, engaging games.

BEAM tokens can be stored in Bitcoin.com Wallet or Metamask. A hardware wallet such as Ledger is a great option for those looking for enhanced security.
