The post OVERTAKE Marketplace Prepares for September Launch with Web3 Innovations appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Tony Kim Aug 26, 2025 13:43 OVERTAKE, a new venture from Asia’s leading gaming marketplaces, is set to launch in September, offering secure onchain escrow and a creator-first storefront for gamers and developers. OVERTAKE, an emerging marketplace from some of Asia’s largest gaming secondary platforms like ItemBay and ItemMania, is set to revolutionize the digital asset trading landscape with its official launch in September, according to Sui Foundation. These platforms, which facilitate a substantial $700 million USD in annual trades, are now entering the Web3 space, leveraging the robust infrastructure and security of the Sui blockchain. From Closed Beta to Official Launch OVERTAKE’s journey began with a Closed Beta Test (CBT) in May, which recorded $63,000 in trades from 195 deals.

This phase saw the introduction of various innovative features, including onchain escrow, zkLogin for seamless onboarding, personalized storefronts for sellers, gas fee subsidies, and fiat top-up options through Banxa. By August, the marketplace had attracted over 1,500 users, facilitating more than 500 trades and generating approximately $120,000 in trading volume.
