I remember getting BTC for in-game achievements playing Lineage nearly a decade ago. Stupid me spent it all on a cheap-ass X7 mouse (it's still with me tho)
Atleast you've enjoyed that mouse and last for many years. Don't regret, people like you are lucky enough to earned so much BTC at start but those people who hold it for long term are the luckiest.
I don’t play video games very often, but my boyfriend adores this activity. Sometimes I just play minecraft and it’s really cool that by playing the game you can earn Bitcoins. I play and thereby make money, it's exciting!
No one can beat the fact that you're earning BTC and at the same time having fun playing games.

That is actually the perks with games integrated with crypto. Most of them are enjoying to the point that they won't know the long hours that they are spending with this activity. Gaming industry is really a good industry to inject crypto. In some way, some of the games have their own currencies already. So just switching it to bitcoin or other alts won't do any big difference. The difference is that they can convert it to their fiat, so in the process they are earning money instead of just spending money on it. Which is a very attractive feature for those gamers.
Yeah, additional to it that most of the gamblers nowadays are gamers. They want to earn money in the way they can bet to their favorite teams and at some point, it's a support.

So the integration of bitcoin to gaming platforms will definitely hit the market but some aren't really capable of it like steam, who don't like its volatility.
The gaming industry is very huge now the same as cryptocurrency so it'll be a good match.
