Monetization for gamers in the form of cryptocurrency and non-fungible tokens (NFTs) is one of the most exciting gaming developments recently.
Since play-to-earn (P2E) games usually have crypto and NFTs as integral parts of their system, they possibly raise the stakes and excitement.
Furthermore, in-game earnings could be used to buy new characters, weapons, and even real estate in the gaming world. Selling or trading all of these assets could be a real possibility further enhancing the excitement factor.
