The number of active video game players worldwide has risen from 1.99 billion people in 2015 to 2.81 billion in 2021. And that number is projected to increase to 3.07 billion people by 2023. While it is an understatement to say that the computer gaming ecosystem is booming, we can say that twice over for Decentralized Finance (DeFi). DeFi has grown faster.
In 2020, the space saw its number of users doubled. And within a year (April 2020 to April 2021), the Total Value Locked (TVL) had also increased by 74x to $178.5 billion. Looking back now, it was only a matter of time before smart developers thought about mixing two industries that have had tremendous growth in the last year. I'm sure you're nodding and smiling now as you see how this could be the next grand leap.
The mixture of gaming to decentralized finance has been well accepted in the industry and it has taken off. Gamers and crypto enthusiasts are loving the idea as you might have seen with how play-to-earn games like Axie Infinity and the likes have been accepted. The demand for these games right now is crazy high. One of such platforms that have been developed is the YAY Games.
YAY.games is a fully decentralized gaming marketplace developed for gamers, traders, and crypto farmers. The game has an innovative in-game mining system for participants of the network while allowing them to play games in a fully decentralized manner. Therefore, YAY Games appeals to those who want to do two things in Defi. Have fun while earning crypto at the same time.
Participants on the platform earn crypto in three ways:
Governance — YAY games will prioritize community voting for future developments, game releases, and partnerships.
Game Mining — each game on the platform contains a $YAY allocation. This is mined and distributed to users based on the following qualities: league ranking, amount of $YAY in the wallet, activity, milestone reaches, stats, and social media sharing.
Exclusive access — Holders of the $YAY token holders can unlock games, tournaments and are eligible for additional rewards and Airdrops.
