After having explored digital identity and artificial intelligence in the crypto world in our previous articles, we now move to one of the most exciting sectors: GameFi.
🚀 What is GameFi?
The term GameFi is a combination of Game + Finance, simply meaning blockchain-based games that give players the opportunity to earn through playing.
Instead of just being entertainment, you can now earn cryptocurrency or non-fungible tokens (NFTs) that have real value.
🕹️ How does GameFi work?
1. Play-to-Earn: You earn digital rewards for achieving milestones within the game.
2. Digital assets: Such as weapons or characters are bought and sold as NFTs.
3. Internal economy: Games have mini-markets, where players buy and sell assets using crypto currencies.
🌍 Social and economic impact
In some developing countries, GameFi has become a real source of income for many young people.
It has given games a new dimension, where the player has also become an investor.
However, there are risks such as price volatility of currencies or weak game models that quickly collapse.
🎯 Major GameFi projects
Axie Infinity: The first massive game in this field.
The Sandbox & Decentraland: Blending games with the metaverse.
Illuvium: A high-quality game similar to traditional video games.

💡 Summary:
The GameFi sector opens the door to a new revolution in the gaming industry, but it is still in its infancy and needs more sustainable models.
❓ And now the question is for you:
Do you see blockchain games as capable of changing the future of the gaming industry and becoming part of our daily lives, or are they just a trend that will fade over time?
