Huobi Research: GameFi apps boost interest in blockchain gaming

 


GameFi initiative have seen strong growth since July 2021. This is due to the reduction in transaction costs and the better user experience.


The research branch of the Huobi crypto exchange called Huobi Research has found that interest in blockchain gaming has increased as a result of the GameFi initiatives. GameFi means that central financing (DeFi) and blockchain gaming offer users incentives as part of a play-to-earn model.



According to Huobi Research, the on-chain data suggests that GameFi initiatives have seen strong growth since June 2021. This is due to the significant reduction in transaction costs and a better user experience.


From the research that popular block Chain games like CryptoKitties shows in November 2017 a maximum of 140,000 daily active users and 180,000 daily transactions recorded. But within a few months, user interaction fell by over 90 percent:


However, the blockchain gaming industry made a comeback with the integration of NFTs, DeFi, and other play-to-earn elements. The NFT game Axie Infinity grossed $ 9.72 million in a single day in June, beating Tencent's record at the time.


"The DApp ranking shows that five of the nine leading apps are GameFi apps. At the beginning of December, the number of weekly active GameFi users rose to 9.21 million, a record."

Based on the above findings, Huobi Research concluded that transaction costs are of great importance in the new institutional economy. While the gaming industry has already introduced play-to-earn capabilities, "society tends to choose the system with the lowest transaction costs".


The study also highlights three fundamental aspects that distinguish GameFi from other existing game models: the free trade in game material, the free trade in and pricing of game currencies, and the protection of property rights. In addition, GameFi developers have the advantage of being able to leverage private property rights over NFTs at a lower cost:



"Not only is this an advantage traditional game developers never had, but it also reflects the intrinsic value of blockchain technology in the gaming industry."

The 5 largest platforms for non-fungible token (NFT) collectibles

  Since the beginning of 2021, non-fungible tokens (NFT) have had no holding back and the sector is setting new records almost every day.  More and more artists, stars and brands are realizing the potential - NFT are well on their way to catapulting the crypto space into the mainstream.  But which collectibles are currently the most popular? What are NFT? NFT are unique tokens that cannot be exchanged one-for-one for an equivalent token.  Any asset that is tokenizable can be an NFT.  This includes, for example, (digital) works of art, trading cards, game items and crypto domains.  Theoretically, however, real estate or securities can also be mapped as NFT. NFTs can be used to transparently map ownership structures on a public blockchain.  This allows them to store value just like real objects, even if additional copies are easy to make.  For example, the original picture of the Mona Lisa is significantly more valuable than a photo, as everyone kno...

CARDALONIA: THE CARDANO METAVERSE OPENS THE GATES!

  Have you ever been to Cardalonia? With these words, the Cardano Metaverse called Cardalonia starts the gates. In this 3D world, developers and users can interact with each other. First of all, users have to create an individual character with which they can move online. After that you can enter one of the worlds built by developers with this character. You can also purchase your own land in the Cardano Metaverse via the marketplaces in Cardalonia . This is secured by Cardano's blockchain technology and therefore offers a relatively secure transfer of ownership. Since these are only digital plots of land, it is not yet entirely clear when the plots of land are purchased whether they can also be sold again in the future. A possible profit cannot be estimated at the moment. In Cardalonia, the cryptocurrency Lonia is used. The maximum amount of tokens in circulation is 100,000,000. The team consists of Alice Sand (Co-Founder), Vasil Air (CTO) and Dustan Water (Fullstack Developer). T...
