In-Game Investments: Virtual Land, Collectibles or Both?(August 20th, 5PM CEST)
The Blockchain Game Alliance invites you to participate in our online conference In-Game Investments: Virtual Land, Collectibles or Both? happening on August 20th, 2020 at 5PM CEST.
The communities around the development of Blockchain Games have been investing and supporting multiple types of in-game economies to create a sustainable turnout and return on the capital invested. In this panel conversation we will be discussing types of token economies driven by the players and the investors in blockchain games and platform marketplaces.
If collecting NFT assets has been a niche phenomenon for the past year or so, the interest around this rapidly growing new economy is attracting non-crypto capitals into the space. During this conversation our speakers will be asked which assets they consider worth investing in and why. What are the economies around NFTs we should expect to see flourishing within blockchain games ecosystems in late 2020 and what is their strategy in attracting new investments into this space.
NFTs enthusiasts are waiting for big corporations to take part in this game; why hasn’t this happened just yet? Does the technology lack trust or is it just a matter of time before global gaming companies will announce their blockchain based games?
Listen to speakers Mick Morucci, Sebastien Borget, Jeffrey Zirlin and Richard Rivera to find out more about their journey into the blockchain games industry and investment history.
This event will be live streamed on YouTube and Twitter on the Blockchain Game Alliance channels on Thursday 20th at 5pm CET. We will be hosting a live Q&A session as part of this event.ACCESS TO THE STREAM (August 20th at 5PM CEST)
