Gaming tokens are really interesting and I think a lot of people are sleeping on them. It's still really early and immature for blockchain games and there's a lot of trash on the market right now, although a small percentage like Axie Infinity and The Sandbox for example, have shown how successful they can be.
People aren't sleeping, they are aware of the potential of gaming tokens. That's why tokens of Axie Infinity and Sandbox were trending previously, a lot of people bought these tokens. Sadly, many scammers made gaming projects, they sold the tokens as well. Many people became the victims because of many shit gaming projects, they lost a lot of money. This decreased the interest of people to buy gaming tokens, but still many people continue to trade gaming tokens. However, with many cases of shit gaming projects, people become more selective. They will learn and analyze deeply every new gaming project. Sure, it is still in the early phase and very immature, but it always grows up.
