DeepLink has partnered with Marlin Protocol to enhance the security and performance of AI-powered gaming. This partnership will bring Marlin’s Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs) into DeepLink’s Decentralized Cloud Gaming Infrastructure. The integration will provide confidential and verifiable AI-driven rendering for immersive and real-time Web3 games. Marlin’s Oyster compute layer allows the development of complex workloads with confidentiality and integrity.

With TEEs, DeepLink can provide serverless inference and persistent game logic without compromising the privacy of the input. This enables gaming applications to scale optimally without compromising the privacy of data. The move will provide advanced functionality in competitive gaming, XR experiences, and on-chain platforms.
TEE-Powered Infrastructure for Confidential Processing
Marlin provides two compute deployment options: Oyster CVM and Oyster Serverless. Oyster CVM offers exclusive, private VMs that can be rented at any length like classic cloud services. Meanwhile, Oyster Serverless enables developers to offload compute tasks to a set of always-online nodes, billed for execution time. Both options provide uptime guarantees and monitoring features.
The protocol allows secure networked calls and relaying of on-chain contracts, thus enabling it to integrate into Web2 and Web3 environments. Besides, Marlin provides tools such as Nix-based reproducible build, key-management service, Docker support, and remote attestation-based TLS. These tools make it easy to deploy secure applications without developers having to learn TEE-specific ways.
Enabling Decentralized Gaming and Compute Scale-Up
Marlin improves the scalability of blockchain by offloading computation off the chain while producing verifiable results. It allows access to off-chain APIs and multi-chain compatibility. Developers can process data safely and expose web endpoints while not undermining on-chain trust and keeping users private using Marlin.
The DeepLink partnership uses these capabilities to establish a secure base for real-time AI-based workloads in gaming. The partnership proposes a safe and efficient model for next-generation gaming applications by combining DeepLink’s decentralized infrastructure with Marlin’s privacy-first design.
This strategic alliance has been a considerable milestone in the secure use of AI and Web3 gaming, which will herald more sophisticated and privacy-focused user experiences.
