[PRESS RELEASE – Tel Aviv, Israel, March 16th, 2026]
Playnance, the Web3 infrastructure company behind the growing GCOIN ecosystem, has announced the launch of GCOIN Staking, a new mechanism designed to strengthen long-term participation in the platform’s expanding Web3 entertainment economy. The program is now live on PlayW3, the flagship Web3 social gaming platform within the Playnance ecosystem, and 250M tokens were locked within hours.
The launch introduces a new opportunity for GCOIN holders to actively participate in the ecosystem through staking and receive rewards distributed through the platform ahead of the upcoming GCOIN Token Generation Event on March 18, expanding the economic layer of the Playnance ecosystem.
The staking program allows GCOIN holders to lock their tokens and participate in ecosystem-driven rewards while encouraging long-term token alignment, reducing circulating supply through voluntary locking, and supporting the sustainability of the GCOIN token economy. Users can stake GCOIN through smart-contract staking pools with a minimum participation threshold of 1,000 GCOIN across four durations of 6, 9, 12, and 18 months, where longer lock periods carry higher reward weight. Rewards begin accumulating 24 hours after activation and can be claimed once the staking period reaches maturity, while early withdrawal remains possible with rewards forfeited.
“Staking allows our community to grow together with the Playnance ecosystem,” said Pini Peter, CEO of Playnance. “As adoption expands, GCOIN holders can take a more active role in the network’s long-term evolution, participating in the ecosystem through staking rewards.”
Playnance introduces a staking mechanism that connects users’ rewards directly to the ecosystem’s operations. Instead of relying on fixed emissions or inflationary rewards, staking rewards are distributed through an ecosystem allocation linked to ecosystem activity, including the social casino and other ecosystem products. As the ecosystem grows and more users participate, rewards are distributed to stakers through an ecosystem allocation, aligning incentives between platform growth and community participation. GCoin holders can stake their tokens to support the ecosystem’s gaming liquidity pool and receive proportional incentive distributions derived from the platform’s daily performance.
GCOIN powers a growing Web3 entertainment economy spanning social gaming, prediction markets, trading environments, and next-generation social casinos. Playnance is leading a structural shift toward decentralized entertainment economies, bringing the global entertainment industry on-chain, all powered by GCOIN. Through staking, community members can participate in the long-term evolution of the ecosystem while contributing to greater stability and sustainability across the Playnance network.
