2025 will be a year for “blockbuster breakthroughs” in the crypto gaming sector. This was what the Blockchain Game Alliance (BGA) 2024 State of the Industry Report expressed.
Appreciating the player reward models of crypto games has been seen in the past year.
- Many crypto games launched a “play-to-airdrop” campaign, where gamers will earn tokens as rewards for playing the game during its TGE season.
- Telegram games were also born, where “tap-to-earn” games allow players to earn tokens by just collecting crypto points.
We have witnessed crypto natives experiencing their “paldo” season. But does that end there? Definitely not.
