Interesting, but Bitcoin/etherium near nonsense lingo aside what’s the draw for players? A safe place to compete? How many people want to pay to play each other since someone always loses? Any bundled scaled payout play where hedging/protective betting can occur?

I would not expect the challenge to be the tech. Steam has proven people will jump through vast hoops for betting and money play and item trading. The underlying reason must be compelling enough or the transaction tech is irrelevant.
