BlackPool Bulletin #35

We are quietly heading into 2023. No drama this week, two massive blockchain games coming to mobile phones… How will the industry react to this step? Mobile phones are the most used gaming platform, so the war will be intense. After all, blockchain games will only have to convince people already playing video games, so is this the mass adoption we are waiting for?

The next step is clearly the no-wallet experience, so we want a mass adoption of something invisible? Isn’t the adoption more on the developers and studio territory? Or an excuse because the pay2play era is coming to its end?

Let’s dive into this evolving industry for 2023, where cash will be more king than ever.
