Blockchain gaming is gaining popularity and raises questions about its future, especially concerning digital ownership and NFTs. In late 2024, blockchain gaming provides real ownership of in-game assets on the blockchain, allowing trading of assets and creating new economic opportunities. Early reactions to NFTs were mixed, with concerns about scams, environmental impact, and sustainability.
The NFT craze of 2021-2022 brought visibility to digital ownership but also skepticism due to its speculative nature. Blockchain gaming still faces skepticism, and efforts are being made to integrate blockchain features naturally into games. Major game publishers are hesitant to embrace blockchain technology due to traditional revenue models, concerns over brand reputation, and technical and regulatory uncertainties.
The potential for players to earn a living through ownership-enabled games is acknowledged but remains a distant prospect, requiring a balance of engaging gameplay, sustainable economies, and fair earning opportunities. For more insights, visit the original article on Gala News.
