I'm not sure but the pandemic might bring this one. Gaming developers make this chance to give a job the jobless people. Play2earn gaming platform gives them the chance to survive from the current situation and to guess who is benefiting from this? Both the developer and the gamers.
The Axie Infinity is an example of this, many people got the interest and put their money. They are making money, of course, and apparently happy with the result and many are going to follow. It is a thing to expect that more gaming sites will offer the same and adopt crypto in the coming years.
There's no doubt that pandemic was one of the reasons why most people even newbies were being caught in their attention to start investing in cryptocurrency or in play to earn feature games to create money while not going outside of their home. Actually, there's a lot of play-to-earn games that were created and promise to give a reasonable profit for the investors like Axie Infinity but sad to say only a few games are legit. Axie Infinity is the only game with P2E that running and operating now in the long run with lots of investors.
