Startale | YOAKE Entertainment: Redefining Entertainment in web3 on Soneium

At Startale, our mission has always been to "Unleash the Potential of Humanity through the Open Internet." Today, we’re thrilled to announce a partnership that aligns with our mission: Startale is collaborating with YOAKE entertainment, an innovative entertainment dApp that’s ready to reshape the boundaries of web3. It’s a platform building on top of Soneium, an Eth L2 by leveraging the OP Stack and Superchain developed by the Optimism Foundation. Together, we’re not just imagining the next era of entertainment; we’re building it.

Entertainment as the Catalyst

The entertainment industry has always been about connection—about creating moments that bring people together. That’s what makes it such a natural driver for web3 adoption. With YOAKE, the potential for participatory, transparent, and boundary-breaking fan experiences is limitless.

  • Bringing Fans and Creators Closer: YOAKE is designed to bridge the gap between fans and creators. Using blockchain technology, it introduces innovative features that allow for real engagement—where fans can actively participate, not just consume.
  • From Japan to the World: Deeply rooted in Japanese pop culture, YOAKE’s global vision extends into anime, gaming, live events, and beyond. It’s not just entertainment—it’s a movement that resonates across cultures and geographies.

Why YOAKE Matters

There are countless entertainment platforms out there, but YOAKE stands out because it’s not just about technology—it’s about people.

  • Backed by Industry Leaders: With the support of some of the biggest names in entertainment, YOAKE has the credibility and resources to push the boundaries of what’s possible.
  • A Participatory Ecosystem: Fans and creators aren’t just interacting; they’re collaborating. Blockchain transparency and smart features make YOAKE a space where participation is meaningful and rewarding.
  • Where Culture Meets Technology: YOAKE is at the intersection of art and innovation, creating experiences that feel both groundbreaking and deeply personal.

Shaping the Future of Entertainment

This partnership with YOAKE is about more than launching a dApp—it’s about redefining how we think about entertainment in this new era. It’s proof that when creativity and technology come together, we can unlock entirely new ways to connect, innovate, and grow.

"At Startale, we focus on entertainment applications. While Web3 is established as the financial layer of the next internet, its user base remains limited. We believe entertainment applications are crucial for onboarding billions of users, as Web3 entertainment has the power to integrate seamlessly into people's daily lives." - Sota Watanabe, CEO of Startale Group.

“YOAKE is rooted in Japanese pop culture, a global phenomenon that is increasingly resonating across borders. Partnering with Startale allows us to scale this cultural impact globally, making it more interactive, inclusive, and rewarding through the power of our shared domain expertise.” - Sota Moriyama, CBO of YOAKE entertainment

Startale’s Role in Building the Future

As a partner to YOAKE, Startale is doing what we do best—helping visionary projects bring their ideas to life through a vertically integrated web3 ecosystem. We’re not just providing tools; we’re enabling transformation.

  • Holistic Support: From designing robust tokenomics to guiding YOAKE’s go-to-market strategies, Startale is ensuring that this platform doesn’t just launch—it thrives.
  • Simplifying Innovation with Startale Cloud Services: Using Startale Cloud Services (SCS), we’re giving YOAKE access to frictionless blockchain infrastructure. SCS seamlessly connects platforms like Soneium and Astar Network, ensuring developers and creators have everything they need to innovate without roadblocks.
  • Account Abstraction for Seamless Experiences: At Startale, we believe that web3 should be accessible to everyone—not just tech experts. By simplifying blockchain interactions (like wallet management and gas fees), we’re paving the way for YOAKE to deliver user experiences that feel intuitive and inclusive.

The Journey is Just Beginning

The collaboration between Startale and YOAKE entertainment is another step forward in building the open internet—one where opportunities are shared, creativity is celebrated, and technology becomes an enabler, not a barrier.
