Too Long; Didn't Read

The concept of Play to Earn games has made me recoil in horror, but I now believe they’re a more important proposition than I realised. Game developers have actively worked against players monetising their play, whether that’s through gold farming, account selling, or currency trading. The arrival of blockchains are leading to a rethink towards player-lead economies by a new wave of developers, as well as a few old hands prepared to take the leap. The core way to monetise gameplay is through. non-fungible. tokens (NFTs) which the player can own, share and trade outside of the context of the original game.
