Web3 gaming platforms are transforming the gaming industry by introducing true digital ownership, play-to-earn models, and decentralized governance, contrasting sharply with traditional gaming's centralized nature. Unlike traditional platforms where players have limited ownership and monetization opportunities, Web3 platforms leverage blockchain and NFTs to enable players to own, trade, and profit from in-game assets. This shift is underscored by the rapid growth in blockchain gaming, which saw daily unique active wallets soar to 7.4 million by the end of 2024, marking a 421% increase from the year's start. Leading platforms such as Axie Infinity, Decentraland, The Sandbox, Illuvium, and Planet IX are at the forefront of this transformation, driving the adoption of decentralized gaming models.
