People keep saying Web3 gaming has failed, but they’re using the wrong metric. If you measure success by token pumps, sure, it looks dead. But if you measure by infrastructure progress—wallet-less onboarding, gas abstraction, on-chain item ownership, interoperable assets—gaming is actually where most innovation is happening. The problem was never the technology—it was that early crypto games were designed around tokens, not fun. But now traditional studios are coming in, and they’re building real games with optional crypto layers. Once players realize they can actually own and trade items without shady marketplaces or account bans, the shift will be irreversible. The winning model won’t be “play-to-earn”—it’ll be “play-and-own.”
