Many people feel there's great potential in play-to-earn (P2E) games. One outstanding example is Pixels, a game similar to Stardew Valley but with blockchain-based rewards. I spent a morning playing, and wanted to share my experience and takeaways.
There's definitely appeal to P2E games in the current economic climate, particularly among younger generations attracted by crypto's promise against inflation. The game is also interesting from a technical standpoint, using the Ronin sidechain to facilitate faster, cheaper transactions for games built on Ethereum.
Ultimately, while you can earn tokens from playing P2E games, I would only play for fun. Investing directly in Ethereum (ETH) is the more straightforward strategy to benefit from the ecosystem's growth. However, P2E games could be huge drivers of that growth. |
