Creators building audiences. Users proving performance.
Excited to bring Lowlife Forms to even more users using the Shaga tech, in particular to players who don't necessarily have the means to buy high-end hardware. Their low-latency streaming tech running Lowlife Forms must be seen to be believed!
ATTA is excited to collaborate with Shaga to bring decentralized game streaming to life. In a world where products like Star Atlas captivate a global audience, technological accessibility is essential. We aim to connect players from every corner of the globe, and our partnership with Shaga will play a pivotal role in delivering this MMO and Metaverse experience seamlessly to every platform and device, with unmatched simplicity and convenience.
We are excited to support Shaga in their mission to make gaming accessible to all. A talented, hackathon-winning team going after one of the hottest verticals in the market, DePIN x Gaming, will be a sight to behold!
Partnering with Shaga is a total game-changer for TRIB3. Their Sharing Economy tech lets us reach way beyond the traditional gamer audience-allowing anyone with a mobile or laptop to experience the same high-octane gameplay you'd get on a tricked-out PC. I tested it myself on my Android, and it was insane. This is exactly what we envisioned for TRIB3: breaking barriers and delivering hardcore gaming to everyone, everywhere

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about Shaga Foundation and our
decentralized gaming infrastructure.
decentralized gaming infrastructure.
What is the difference between Shaga Foundation, Shaga Labs, and Play on Shaga?
The Shaga ecosystem operates through three distinct entities. Shaga Foundation governs token economics, distribution, and on-chain governance mechanisms. Shaga Labs focuses on AI research and enterprise data operations, while Play on Shaga operates the consumer gaming platform and node infrastructure.
Each entity maintains operational independence with distinct governance structures.
Each entity maintains operational independence with distinct governance structures.
Is Shaga already operational?
Yes. The network has streamed 701,000+ gaming hours through 817 active nodes. Platform performance delivers 24ms ultra-low latency gaming.
The network is operational with invite-only access while scaling infrastructure.
The network is operational with invite-only access while scaling infrastructure.
What makes Shaga different from other DePIN projects?
Shaga operates across dual markets: consumer gaming subscriptions and enterprise AI data licensing. Most DePIN projects (Helium, Render, Akash, Theta) depend solely on enterprise infrastructure contracts.
Shaga’s full-stack integration creates compound network effects where gaming demand generates data that increases enterprise value, which funds infrastructure growth. Competitors achieve linear scaling where more nodes only increase capacity.

What’s the AI world models connection?
Shaga’s gaming infrastructure generates authenticated human gameplay data that AI companies need for training world models. Real player behavior data cannot be replicated through synthetic simulations.
Shaga Labs manages enterprise AI data licensing, creating a B2B revenue stream alongside consumer gaming subscriptions. This dual-revenue model differentiates Shaga from pure infrastructure projects.

Why does dual revenue matter?
Dual revenue streams create network sustainability through diversification. Single-revenue DePIN projects face concentrated market dependency and cyclical enterprise sales pressure.
Consumer subscriptions provide predictable baseline revenue while enterprise operations create additional revenue opportunities. The Foundation governs token economics designed to align with activity across both streams.

How does the token connect to network activity?
The token serves two functions: rewards for node operators providing infrastructure and governance participation for token holders. Node operators earn tokens for hosting sessions and contributing computing capacity.
Token holders participate in governance decisions around network development, protocol upgrades, and strategic direction. The Foundation manages distribution mechanisms as network operations scale.

How does Foundation governance work?
The Foundation is actively developing governance mechanisms that will enable token holder participation in network decisions. Governance frameworks are being designed to cover token economics, network proposals, treasury management, and protocol upgrades.
The Foundation is committed to transparent, on-chain governance. Detailed documentation will be published as governance systems are finalized.
