How Gaming is Driving Crypto Adoption and Why You Should Get Into It
The gaming industry is about to become the driving force behind cryptocurrency adoption and you’d better get into it.
If you’re like me, you learn best while having fun. We learned finance, money, and life skills by playing Monopoly. Today, with emerging technologies like AI, IoT, 5G, AR, blockchain, and all that jazz, gaming is entering an entirely new phase where we can’t even begin to imagine what’s possible. So what better way to make new concepts and technology more accessible, fun, and smooth to operate than through games?
Blockchain is complex and most people don’t know how to use it or where to start, so they don’t even try. That’s where games come into play. Through them, #blockchain is democratised, more digestible, and a click away from the masses. Like from the toilet. Yeah, more than 50% of #gamers play mobile games while in the bathroom (Mediakix).
Now let’s get personal.
According to this Newzoo, the gaming market will continue to grow in the following years, and the primary driver of the global market #growth across the world is mobile, which will generate revenues of $103.5 billion this year (53% of the market), representing growth of +5.1%. Music to my ears.
So what does having fun and making money while waiting for the bus sound like? Fucking great.
The traditional gaming scene has been taken over by #GameFi. It was a pretty huge thing in the hardcore gamers community, but things are shifting to a more casual sphere. According to this report, in 2021, 3.6 billion #downloads were for hyper-casual games, making this the most successful quarter to date. Plus, on average, hyper-casual mobile gamers download ten times more games than other players. (VentureBeat).
So why not merge #hypercasual #gaming with #p2e? Mind blown. That’s what #WAM does, easy-to-play games with a crypto twist. We’re pushing crypto and #NFT adoption, reaching crypto noobs that never thought about owning a digital wallet before and for whom reaching to the moon has a whole new meaning. And you’re welcome to join. It’s not just that the gaming industry is taking off — it’s that hyper-casual mobile gaming is taking off. And with it comes a whole new world of #opportunities for players, developers, and publishers alike.
#Crypto games are going to change everything. I’m not just saying that because I’m biased (though of course, I am), or because I have a vested interest in seeing the crypto market grow (though of course, I do). I’m saying it because it’s true. Patience is a bitch, but we can’t do without it. When crypto started to pop off, it was mostly just nerds who understood what all this new technology meant, and they were excited because they were going to be able to make a lot of money from it. So it took time to reach this point. The crypto space is like an iceberg: you only see the tip, but the rest of it is t underwater. The same goes for crypto adoption. It will gradually, but steady, come into more widespread use over time. But there’s no going back from here.
The #Web3 gaming #revolution has just begun. Casual gamers can now make real earnings, anytime, anywhere. Now is the time to come and have your cake and eat it too. Fantastic antidote against FOMO. And I’m pretty bullish to say that the crypto revolution starts from Transylvania.
