Why Blockchain Gaming is the Next Big Thing in the Digital World?


Blockchain gaming is changing the way we think about games as players and stakeholders. It integrates fun and finance, creating opportunities for gamers to earn real value by playing in games. When we add in NFTs or decentralized ownership, players can actually own their digital assets, trade their assets across ecosystems, generate income through play-to-earn (P2E), etc. It is erasing the lines between play and pay, who knew you could monetize time in-game!
As opposed to traditional gaming, blockchain game players retain ownership of their items, characters, and progress even if the game itself is shut down. Players own all of their assets, minted as NFTs, which can be resold or used in other games because of interoperability across chains. Transparency is another example of how blockchain gaming differs from traditional gaming. A smart contract is the logic of the game, and the developer or publisher cannot change it without consensus, since players are a part of the network or ecosystem. In addition, players can influence the direction of their game through communities and community-driven DAOs!
