Abey is a Layer 1 blockchain platform managed by the Abey Foundation, a non-profit organization based in George Town, Grand Cayman. The platform is designed to support interactive, cross-application data sharing and is compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). [1]
The Abey blockchain was launched in 2018 and is described by its foundation as an "Inter-App Blockchain." This core concept is designed to facilitate interactive data sharing between different applications built on its network. For instance, an achievement or item earned in one game could unlock features or be recognized in another unrelated application within the Abey ecosystem. The platform is built to support projects in sectors such as decentralized finance (DeFi), GameFi, and the Metaverse. [1]
It operates as a nonprofit organization that serves as the steward for the Abey chain. Its primary mission is to foster the growth of the ecosystem by providing funding and support to developers through a grants program. The foundation emphasizes achieving user adoption through simplicity and ease of use for both developers and end-users, rather than focusing exclusively on technical metrics like transactions per second (TPS). The project's stated goals include achieving fast transaction finality and enabling seamless functionality across different blockchain ecosystems. [2]
The Abey ecosystem consists of a network of dApps and supporting platforms, cultivated through the Abey Grants Program. This program provides funding and resources to developers and teams building on the Abey chain. The foundation actively promotes these projects through its official channels. The community maintains a presence on platforms like Discord, which had over 5,000 members as of late 2025. [2] [3]
Key projects within the ecosystem include:
The native token of the Abey blockchain is integral to the network's operation, security, and governance. The foundation promotes the ARC-20 token standard, which is designed to simplify the process for developers to launch new tokens on the Abey chain and across different ecosystems
The governance model for the Abey blockchain is based on its Delegated Proof-of-Stake (DPoS) system. Token holders have a direct role in the network's governance by participating in the election of a committee of delegates. This elected committee is then entrusted with the responsibility of maintaining the ongoing operation of the blockchain, including transaction validation and blockchain production. This model delegates the day-to-day network maintenance to a smaller group chosen by the broader community of token holders. [1]
The Abey Foundation collaborates with external partners for infrastructure support and actively promotes projects building within its ecosystem.
In addition to these infrastructure partners, the foundation supports and collaborates with various projects building on its chain, including InterWorld, XRacer, and Fantase. [1] [2]
