AFRIGUILD GAMING COMMUNITY
AFRIGUILD GAMING COMMUNITY
In the beginning, games were pay-to-play, built with arcades in mind. Later, through experimentation and pioneering business models, we had free-to-play, which also monetises through an in-game economy of digital goods and these were tightly controlled by the game developers.
But play-to-earn is a new paradigm, it is based on creating real-world value out of in-game assets and other forms of digital goods using non-fungible tokens, cryptocurrencies and other blockchain technologies.
So, instead of buying a game, the game pays you to play it and rewards you with built-in incentives for your time.
A blockchain game (also known as a NFT game or a crypto game) is a video game that includes elements that use blockchain technologies. Blockchain elements in these games are most often based on the use of cryptocurrency or non-fungible tokens (NFTs) which players can buy, sell, or trade with other players, with the game publisher taking a fee from each transaction as a form of monetization. In some cases, players of blockchain games have earned enough to pay for costs of living, making these games also known as play-to-earn games. While blockchain games have been available since 2017, blockchain games have only gathered the attention of the video game industry in 2021, with several triple-A publishers having expressed strong intent to explore their potential, as well as criticism from players, developers, and companies within the game industry.
