Since the demise of the ICO market around 2017 and the approximately two-year cooling off period of cryptocurrency hype, the Crypto investment community has seen a comeback moment. Developers and tech entrepreneurs have created new industries aimed at generating investor interest. If the ICO market is dead, the Crypto market will have to create entirely new risky asset classes if it is to move beyond the boundaries of a few blockchain platforms such as BTC and ETH. Decentralized financial and pledge markets are one, and new blockchain protocols are another.

And over the past few years, GameFi has become the newest category in the crypto economy.

Of course, it's not just designed for gamers only. If only gamers were involved, the space available for investment would be limited. But there are already enough blockchain games and backed projects in the NFT space to give investors a new place to gamble the dollars in their Coinbase accounts.

GameFi, like cannabis ETFs or venture capital funds, is not an investor's prank. Consistent with the creation of new businesses, some projects are bound to fail.

This is a real marketplace with billions of dollars, designed primarily around the massive rise of blockchain-based video games in the Web 3.0 universe (or Web3), where developers can enter and create their own worlds. And make money that way. If you don't know anything about it, they call it "play to earn".

GameFi has a market cap of over $11.6 billion and daily trading volume of about $2 billion, although that number is dropping fast due to a general market sell-off.

Imagine this: you're playing Minecraft, you create your own worlds and characters inside Minecraft through the creator's engine, and then you sell them for a profit. That's GameFi in a nutshell.

Games are also important." I should feel disembodied and drawn to stay because I enjoy playing the game, not just because I can earn Tokens," said Arunkumar Krishnakumar, chief growth officer at Bullieverse in London. They have their own creator engine for serious gamers who want to build their own worlds and monetize their creations in Bullieverse games.

"As a gaming platform, the immersive experience allows players to become more invested in the game. When they feel more engaged, they tend to promote the game and become ambassadors for it," he says." That's where we are right now."

There are approximately 3 billion online gamers worldwide, with Asia accounting for 55 percent of that market. By 2024, the mobile gaming industry is expected to generate $116 billion in revenue from players' online spending.

There are 2.5 billion online gamers in the traditional Web 2.0 world, compared to an estimated 5 million or so in the Web3 world. Web3's gamer base is thought to be rising rapidly due to the developer and consumer incentives Web3 offers. In terms of gaming experience, Web3 games still lag behind what we are used to on the X Box, but that will change and if GameFi is part of the game, then the growth story will begin.

The Web3 model of playing to earn is all about creating and expanding the games that others originally made. Many games are still figuring out the right economic model to achieve the mission, a model that will accrue more value to gamers, especially loyal, high-quality gamers, and bring investors to their token.

"On a macro level, GameFi is a fusion of video games, gambling and investing that will become a new form of entertainment," said Dan Nisanov, co-founder and CEO of Florida-based Silks, "Silks is an online horse racing aerie in the style of GameFi." We are building a spin-off game - a money-making meta-universe - that mirrors the real world of thoroughbred horse racing. Our vision is to provide the real economic experience of owning a racehorse in real life ...... Just in the meta-universe. When your horse wins a $100 jackpot prize in real life, the owner of that horse, NFT, wins the same prize.

Nisanov says game theory and token economics drew him to GameFi a few years ago. he earned his degree in economics from California State University in Northridge. He's also a gamer." I've dabbled in some games like Zedrun and Axie Infinity," he says. "I don't know of any major traditional game publishers yet that offer games to make money, but I can tell you they're trying to figure out how to reinvent themselves and their business models to incorporate GameFi before they get left behind. think about what Netflix did to what Blockbuster has done." He said

He likes Axie (AXS) and Pegaxy (PGX), however, both companies have been on the decline lately. PGX was trading at about $0.20 a month ago. Now it's about 1 cent. AXY was trading at about $67 a month ago and is now closer to $30.

"The value of an investment can go up and down depending on the popularity of a game and its ability to attract new players while retaining existing ones," said Vijay Pravin, CEO of BitsCrunch in Munich, Germany, a blockchain analytics firm that provides solutions for the NFT ecosystem.

Pravin's favorites are AXS, True Flip Token, Sandbox and Decentraland , and he owns Gods Unchained, AXY and MANA, none of which are in any category for immediate revenue.

"These games allow users to earn their playtime by acquiring rare items or creating powerful characters with unique looks," said Pravin, which also includes Silks horse racing." It's a potentially lucrative industry. It just needs to fine tune how deliverables are exchanged between buyers and sellers."

What is GameFi and is it a profound industry? It's a real industry that blends with one of the most lucrative industries in reality - video games. Some games will fail, but others won't. Investors will have to pick their spots, and there will undoubtedly be plenty of gambling in GameFi.

GameFi is a more streamlined model for making money in games that allows gamers to easily connect with other gamers on blockchain networks and gamer platforms that are dedicated to trading in-game assets - whether they are virtual lands, weapons, or thoroughbreds.

The big publishers of traditional games have items for sale in their games, but mostly only as an add-on for the publisher, and perhaps the platforms themselves might get a cut - Microsoft's X Box, for example.

And blockchain games that allow players to create characters, scenarios, and perhaps even entire games will allow for monetization.

For example, I play golf on X Box's 2KSports. I made a golf course in São Paulo, Brazil. In GameFi, in theory, I could sell the course or charge people for it if it was popular enough. But 2KSports obviously doesn't allow me to rely on this to make money. The type of user creation is free, although that may change afterwards.

"We're still in the early stages of GameFi," Nisanov said." The game is one-dimensional and the experience is complex, and there's a lot of conflict, because it's not easy to get players who have never bought Crypto before on board. That will change in the next few years as the tools become more streamlined, applicable and understandable, which will drive a rapid rise in demand, separating the winning programs from the losers and giving investors a return on their investment," he predicted.

"I think we're going to see a massive explosion of GameFi next year, Nisanov predicts." Watch for major acquisitions in the gaming space."
