Africans at large are not taking this ecosystem serious, the Philippinos are far ahead of us and are making a living out of it. Most Philippinos have taking play2earn gaming as a means of livelihood.
Games like Axie infinity is the future, because you're not only playing to have fun, you're also being paid to do so.
I myself is a bit late as I started playing last two months as a scholar (You play for someone who invested money and the proceeds gets shared 50/50 after every 14days)
But even as late as I am I have made up to 350$ in just two months without any risk of being rugpulled.
There are lots of games coming out, some of which you only need small capital to start playing and eventually make money.
This is a perfect side hustle. Its the future.
Are you playing for the money or because of passion(something good you love doing)?
I don't think it's good to drag people into something even when they don't like or enjoy it. It could make them sick, and miserable.
And I hope the games are safe/good for players. It should also serve useful purpose else it won't be sustainable
