In Web2 gaming, in-game marketplaces allow players to trade in-game loot and gear using play money which has no real value.
Web3 gaming ties in-game currency to cryptocurrencies, turning the marketplace into a real-money economy for players and developers.
Every trade in Web3 gaming involves real value transactions, with a percentage tax that contributes to a reward pool, developer income, and game vault.
Monetizing in-game item transactions without restricting player freedom creates a revenue-generating profit center that benefits from the player base's growth.
