Why crypto gaming is not the future
I’ve had quite a bit of fun playing Gods Unchained which is like Hearthstone but on Ethereum. What does that actually mean? The cards are NFTs so you can buy and sell them. You can also buy card packs with regular micropayments like other TCGs. However because you can sell cards it suddenly becomes a lot more interesting - you can make real money from your legendaries. Not much but I heard earlier in the year people were making $50 a week. The market for high value cards is driven by people wanting to get win streaks for more packs to unlock rare cards to sell, people buy packs from the store because it’s a TCG and that money is in the ecosystem to invest in new card designs&#x2F;run tournaments&#x2F;etc… it genuinely works quite nicely and I’m against microtransactions in general because you can get it back out again.
