The recent surge in the blockchain gaming sector! Is it a scheme to exploit or the rise of Web3!
To conclude, the true value of Web3 games is not in solving the 'problems' of Web2, but in providing a new toy for specific groups (tech geeks, speculators). However, to say it's the future of the gaming industry, it currently resembles an unfulfilled bet.
As a blockchain practitioner for 8 years and a gaming enthusiast for 25 years, I completely fail to understand the necessity of Web3 blockchain games from my perspective.
The pain points of Web2 that it claims to solve are not serious enough to require blockchain for 'redemption', and the advantages claimed by Web3 (ownership, governance) are either hollow or overly exaggerated niche demands in reality. I present the essence of the problem as 'game assets are useless without leaving' and 'governance is nonsense': there is a significant gap between the idealized narrative of Web3 blockchain games and their actual implementation.
What are Web3 blockchain games
Web3 blockchain games mainly apply blockchain technology to aspects such as asset management, trading, and ownership verification in games. Blockchain, as a decentralized technology platform, provides a secure, transparent, and trustworthy infrastructure for games. Specifically, this combination is reflected in the following aspects:
Digitalization of assets and ownership: Blockchain transforms virtual assets in games (such as items, characters, currency, etc.) into verifiable digital assets through smart contracts and non-fungible token (NFT) technology. Players can truly own these assets and record their ownership on the blockchain. Decentralized trading: Players can freely buy or exchange these assets on the blockchain without relying on intermediary platforms from game developers. This trading record is public and transparent, and cannot be tampered with.
Essentially, the core of this combination lies in leveraging the characteristics of blockchain to provide game assets with safe storage, trustworthy transactions, and the possibility of lasting existence, thereby changing the operational model of traditional games.
So whether blockchain games are a trap set by the dealers or not! As long as you are not greedy! Secure your gains! You will definitely benefit!
In this market, opportunities and risks are proportional!
