Today we’re announcing a huge milestone in the evolution of GalaSwap, designed to revolutionize the way users and developers interact with GalaChain.
GalaSwap now empowers users to easily swap, create and manage GalaChain tokens through on-chain dApps without the need for a Gala account.
New Ways to Connect
GalaSwap is growing, and the broader Gala ecosystem is evolving toward greater decentralization than ever. This latest update has the potential to massively boost the GalaChain user base, opening access to the wallet features of GalaChain without requiring the creation of a Gala account.
Users can now create a GalaChain wallet and interact with GalaChain tokens using an existing Ethereum wallet, enabling a smoother experience that is more intuitive and less centralized.
For some time Gala has offered users the ability to connect an Ethereum wallet to their account, simplifying processes like bridging and interaction with Ethereum-based secondary markets like OpenSea.
Users can now establish an initial connection using their Ethereum wallets alone. By signing a transaction in Metamask, you can create a brand new accountless GalaChain wallet.
This new system will be especially beneficial for third party GalaChain creators building dApps from a variety of industries, giving them the freedom to customize their user experience more deeply and interact with their audiences without Gala (the company) acting as an intermediary. They will enjoy the power and function of GalaChain, wrapped in a user interface that they are free to customize as they see fit.
New Features
Features included in the recent update will enhance any web3 user’s experience and access to GalaChain tokens, whether or not they have a Gala account.
Existing Gala accounts can create a new web3 wallet via Metamask.
Existing Metamask users can generate a GalaChain wallet address with no Gala account.
GalaChain tokens can be viewed and managed within GalaSwap.
Evolution of GalaSwap
As part of this exciting development, GalaSwap will soon rebrand to GalaConnect, further emphasizing our commitment to connectivity and ease of use. As it continues to evolve with more streamlined features, this platform will serve as the new hub for all your GalaChain interactions.
Empowering Users and Developers
GalaSwap is more than just a platform for swapping tokens; it’s a gateway to freedom for our users and developers. By allowing third parties to develop their own GalaChain dApps with easy onboarding, we are fostering a more inclusive and expansive ecosystem.

FAQ
Is a new GalaChain wallet created when I login to GalaSwap with my Ethereum wallet for the first time?
Yes, GalaChain wallet creation is required when using the web3 wallet login option.
Can I log into Gala Games, Gala Music and Gala Film with the GalaChain wallet created via web wallet login?
No – The GalaChain wallet created in this way is only for GalaSwap. To use the core Gala platforms you will need to create an account.
If I log into GalaSwap using the same web3 wallet that is already linked to my Gala account, will it still create a new GalaChain wallet?
Yes. Even if you log into GalaSwap with a web3 wallet that is currently linked to your Gala account, a new GalaChain account will be created for use on GalaSwap.
Join the Revolution
The vision of GalaConnect is a leap forward in our mission to empower users and developers and expand the GalaChain ecosystem. By simplifying interactions and enhancing possibilities, we are paving the way for a more connected and decentralized future.

Today we’re announcing a significant update to our ecosystem— the rollout of a new gas fee system on GalaChain. As part of our ongoing commitment to enhance the efficiency, security and sustainability of our network, we are implementing gas fees for various transactions and actions across our platforms, including Gala Games, Gala Music, Gala Film and GalaSwap.
What’s Changing?
As the result of approval of this recent Founder’s Node governance vote, fees will now be applied to the following actions on GalaChain:
GalaChainToken Transactions:
BatchFillTokenSwap
BatchMintToken
BurnTokens
FulfillMint
FulfillMintAllowance
MintToken
MintTokenWithAllowance
RequestTokenBridgeOut
RequestTokenSwap
TerminateTokenSwap
TransferToken
User Actions (1 $GALA fee per action):
Minting currency from mint allowance
Minting NFTs from mint allowance
Bridging out currency (note: existing fees apply, future dynamic fees are in development)
Sending currency
Sending NFTs
Paying for orders by transferring funds
Paying for orders by burning funds
Why Introduce Fees?
The implementation of transaction fees serves multiple objectives:
Ecosystem Health: By increasing the amount of burnt $GALA, we aim to ensure the long-term health and sustainability of our ecosystem.
Resource Allocation: Efficient allocation of network resources encourages optimal and responsible usage, crucial as we expand the ecosystem to include greater numbers of third party developers.
Spam Prevention: Deterring spam and other undesired behaviors helps maintain the integrity of individual channels and the GalaChain network as a whole.
Channel Founder Incentives: Founders of new GalaChain channels will receive a portion of fees collected within their channels.
Node Operator Incentives: Providing ongoing benefits for node operators supports the decentralization and robustness of GalaChain.
Referral Incentive
As approved by the Gala Founder’s Node ecosystem in THIS VOTE, all $GALA burned as gas fees qualifies for a direct referral incentive reward. The direct referrer receives 8-10% of the burnt $GALA as a mint allowance, and the 2nd degree referrer (referrer of referrer) receives 2%.
Initial Launch and Future Rollout
The initial launch of the new system will apply only to transactions on the asset channel. This means many game NFTs and $MUSIC, which are not currently on the asset channel, will not have fees at first. However, it is essential to mention that fees for these channels are coming soon, ensuring a comprehensive rollout across the entire Gala ecosystem.
Aligning with Traditional Practices
While GalaChain is a permissioned blockchain and does not use miners like Ethereum, our fee structure borrows from traditional practices to streamline operations and provide ongoing opportunities for node operators. This hybrid approach allows us to maintain the benefits of decentralization while we continue to grow, ensuring the efficiency and reliability of our network.
Looking Ahead
Our commitment to innovation and community engagement remains steadfast as we continue to develop and refine our platform.
We appreciate your support and understanding as we implement these changes to enhance the Gala ecosystem. Together, we are building a more sustainable, efficient and secure future for all GalaChain users.
Stay tuned for more updates, and thank you for being a part of our journey!
Playing the games in our growing tApp (Telegram mini app) ecosystem is more rewarding than you may think.
Sure, when you play Music Coin you’ll position yourself for seasonal and daily $TREZ distribution (more details in the $TREZ Litepaper). But there is more to the Music Coin reward system than that.
$GALA on TON
We bridged a nice pile of $GALA over to TON (4 Million $GALA to be precise) where it’s now designated as the Music Coin referral reward pool. The bridged version of $GALA on TON is called $TGALA, and you can view the wallet containing the 4M $TGALA on TONviewer at the link below:
Collecting $GALA through referrals is almost a game of its own within the already rewarding world of Music Coin.
As you invite new users who join the game, you will continue to build up $GALA rewards, in addition to the standard in-game rewards that will determine your share of the first seasonal $TREZ distribution.
As you unlock new levels, you’ll have a chance to collect even more $GALA per referred user.
Once wallet integration is complete, you’ll be able to get your accumulated $GALA rewards out of the game and use them however you like in the Gala ecosystem!
But you’ve been warned… Once the 4M $GALA referral reward pool runs out, no more $GALA rewards will be available for Music Coin players, so hurry and invite your friends to ensure you get reward credit!
Music Coin Tips
When you build up a lot of Music Coin, don’t forget to use it on the various Quest options, upgrading your Lifestyle, Location and Instrument skills to enhance your passive profit per hour!
Always check for new reward opportunities in the Rewards tab. These amount to quick and easy Music Coins in-game and they update frequently! And remember to check in and claim your Daily Streak reward, also found in the Rewards tab and worth up to 200K Coins!
Challenge your friends as often as you like! There are no penalties for losing a challenge and it’s all automatic.
Greetings Captains! Hopefully your battles in Season 6 are going well. The first Conquest is just behind us, but there’s always a battle raging in the arena!
We’ve discussed arena tactics and team composition in the past, but today we’re going to talk about the shifting landscape of teams in PvP within Eternal Paradox. What may work in one season may not in another. You’ve got to be in touch with the meta strategy to really be competitive within the arena.
Arena Meta
The arena meta is somewhat flexible. Unlike other games that have shifting rulesets, Mercenaries are pretty consistent in their abilities in the arena. You can reliably assume that your team from last season will fill about the same role in the next, and battles themselves don’t really change.
There are, however, a few reasons that the meta strategy shifts over time. First, there’s season features. Each season, three Mercenaries have a huge boost to their stats. This makes them exceptionally suited to winning in the arena.
In the case of Season 6, Laila, Laction and Bianca are all boosted for the season.
That 100% bonus is pretty significant. For Bianca, that represents more attack than she’ll get from a 7* Weapon. Laction has incredibly powerful crits this season as well, and Laila’s boosted HP makes her shields a HUGE factor in arena combat.
In addition to these seasonal buffs, there are also the season special features that can influence the balance of power within the arena.
In season 6, this means a significant attack speed boost to all water mercenaries. Definitely more in favor of Bianca and Laila here.
Team Evolution
While the abilities of Mercenaries are consistent from season to season, the buffs and features of each season combined with the appearance of new Mercenaries can slowly shift what teams are popular.
In season 1 and 2, you were very likely to see a lot of the following strategy at the top levels of arena combat:
That fast Val meta is definitely still around. As more Mercenaries are introduced though, new strategies arise to combat the reigning teams.
Just a few seasons ago, you were far more likely to see battles that started like this:
When Jin Ryu entered the battle as a new Mercenary, his leader skill with a full team stun after their first hit changed the arena meta entirely! This strategy is still incredibly useful, but the evolution of the game has also brought new tactics.
The Laila Meta
This season Laila has 100% increased HP. She also has this monster of a leader skill. It definitely gains more power from that seasonal buff:
So right away at the start of the battle, your team gets a shield as big as Layla’s health and almost guaranteed evasion from attacks. That’s big. The one hit KO Val strategy is stopped in its tracks entirely by this gambit.
Throw in Laila’s ultimate skill on her first move, and you’ve got an even bigger defensive bulwark. Even if you’ve chiseled away that shield to damage one opponent, they’re getting a full heal. That’s not even mentioning the two hit barriers or the debuff immunity – that puts a serious limit on strategies like Alex’s bombs or Laction’s stacking debuffs.
Suddenly, the meta starts to look a lot like this:
It’s not impossible to fight to victory against a Laila team with a different team composition, but the fast KO strategies of previous seasons have definitely been slowed down.
The rise of Laila makes a lot of other Mercenaries useful in ways they weren’t before. Lucas or William’s shields can refresh or match up to Laila’s, giving you as much endurance as your enemies! Getting a sleep or stun across with Zarkhan or Wang could stop Laila’s ultimate skill before that second set of shields… in fact, why not hop in with Camilla and just silence everyone from the start?
Fighting for Victory
The arena is calling, Captains! How will you fight in this season’s meta?
Get out there and try different combos. See what works with this season’s popular teams. Who knows? Maybe you’ll find a new OP combo that dominates everybody!

FAQ
How can I find my Gala wallet?
Once you have created your new Gala account through GALACoin, access your GalaChain wallet address at Games.Gala.com in the upper right corner, where you can copy your wallet address (beginning with client|). You will receive GALACoin $GALA withdrawals at this address.
Can I accumulate $GALA rewards before creating and verifying my own Gala account?
Yes, but you will not be able to withdraw them until you create an account and hold at least 100 $GALA in your GALACoin account.
What are the requirements to withdraw $GALA?
In order to withdraw your accumulated $GALA rewards to your GalaChain address, you must first create a new Gala account through the link within GALACoin (found on the Quests page and the Rewards menu Withdraw button). Additionally, you must have a minimum of 100 $GALA accumulated to make a withdrawal.
I created my Gala account without using the in-game link and my account creation was not recognized by GALACoin. What can I do?
If you created your account in any way other than the provided link within GALACoin, the Gala account creation is not recognized by the reward system. However, you can permanently delete your Gala account through the Security section of your Gala Account options (found at Games.Gala.com) then create the account again through the in-game link to solve this problem.
How do I access my $GALA in my Gala account?
Shortly after the purchase is complete, you’ll receive your $GALA as a GalaChain allowance that you can convert through your Gala account on your Balances page.
Before you’re able to move your $GALA onto the blockchain, you must set up a transfer code for your account, a necessary security measure that will work for all future transactions on GalaChain.
Under your Account Settings, go to GalaChain Transfer Code
Create a transfer code and certify that you are at least 18 years old.
Follow the instructions to view and write down your account recovery phrase.
After acknowledging you’ve written down your recovery phrase, prove it by answering a few questions about your recovery phrase. This recovery phrase is necessary to recover or change your transfer code.
Your transfer code is then ready to use.
Creating a transfer code unlocks your ability to transact on the blockchain.
Once your transfer code is added, go back to your GalaChain Allowances page within Balances and convert your $GALA. Finalize with your transfer code and your $GALA will appear shortly in your GalaChain balance, where it is spendable and transferable.
What will I receive for my accumulated GalaPoints in GALACoin?
At launch, GalaPoints do not equate to $GALA rewards. With future releases, additional rewards may be issued based on the accumulation of these points, such as upgrades to potential $GALA rewards for referrals or bonus items from the various Gala ecosystems.
Can I connect an existing account wallet for GALACoin rewards?
No, GALACoin $GALA rewards are only for new accounts created through the links provided within GALACoin.
