In 2014, "Catch the Crazy Cat" produced by Egret Technologies took the social media by storm and initiated the first year of HTML5 games. After four years of development, the HTML5 game market has grown from the $50 millions in that year to the $6 billions of today, achieving a 120-times growth and validating the existence of a vast blue ocean market for HTML5 technology.

At the same time, Internet giants have also publicly embraced HTML5 technology. For instance, Facebook has released its H5 technology-based instant game in its Messenger with more than 1 billion daily active users; Google has launched PWA, which advocates the concept of search and application and applies HTML5 technology to apps and search; WeChat published mini-games and has ignited a boom in games that are click-to-play and require no downloading; its "Take a hop" mini-game has over 100 million active daily users. HTML5 technology has been recognized globally as a cross-platform, cross-terminal and cross-industry solution. Its annual global market scale is expected to reach $100 billion US dollars.

HTML5 Industry Embraces Blockchain. Both Opportunities and Challenges Exist

While the HTML5 industry has been rapidly developing, we notice that there are still many obstacles regarding its business model, user size, and market size. For example, there is a lack of copyright protection mechanisms and fairness mechanisms to protect games and applications, and a lack of unified and secure trading platforms for virtual assets. The reason for this is because of problems such as the vulnerability of HTML5 game code to plagiarism, the lack of transparency in the probability drop rate in-game tools and the difficulty of circulating virtual assets between games. Blockchain technology is highly respected for its decentralization, security, transparency, non-destructibility, traceability and other characteristics and is naturally suitable for solving the pain points of the HTML5 industry.

However, a seemingly perfect answer still has many problems that reality must confront. The existing blockchain has disadvantages such as low performance and high technical barriers that hinder the integration of HTML5 industry and blockchain technology, and these are preventing HTML5 developers from creating applications that can widely distribute on the blockchain. Egretia Lab is a platform created for the era of blockchain + HTML5. It will solve the fundamental pain points of the HTML5 industry and bring practical, far-reaching significance to the development of the industry.
