Immutable X joins forces with ESL Gaming for CS:GO NFT collection

Layer-2 NFT solution Immutable X has partnered with ESL Gaming to bring “carbon neutral and gas-free trading” of the ‘ESL Pro Tour NFTs’ collection.

ESL Gaming will build upon Immutable X’s NFT platform to bring an NFT platform for global esports enthusiasts to buy, sell and exchange their NFTs on the ESL Pro Tour.

Immutable X will provide the “needed scaling infrastructure” and introduce users to the platforms main selling point – carbon-neutral, gas-free minting and trading of NFTs.

Bernhard Mogk, SVP Global Business Development at ESL Gaming, commented on how the partnership will help develop the esports and NFT industries further.

“The Immutable team has gaming in their DNA and we share the same vision for the future of NFTs,” he said.

“We could not be more excited to launch on Immutable X the best possible community-driven and fan-centric collectable platform to buy, collect and own some of the most memorable moments in EPT history.”

Immutable X has grown in popularity due to its viability as a Layer-2 rollup solution that provides NFT collectors instant trade confirmation, better scaling and zero gas fees on their NFT purchases.

The platform has also committed to offsetting its carbon footprint via a certified climate-conscious partner, Trace and Cool Effect – According to Immutable X, this will make “every NFT on its Layer 2 100% carbon neutral.”

Speaking of the partnership, Robbie Ferguson, co-founder of Immutable X, said:

“We are thrilled to partner with a leader like ESL and look forward to a great partnership in the years to come.”

Esports remain a relatively unexplored industry for crypto and NFTs, with further growth expected due to the popularity of ‘metaverse’ type environments and the rise of NFT and blockchain gaming platforms such as Axie Infinity.
