The "Play-to-Earn" (P2E) model in "cryptocurrency + gaming" has disrupted traditional gaming by shifting revenue from publishers to players. Unlike conventional games reliant on in-app purchases, P2E leverages blockchain and NFTs, enabling players to earn tradable assets like Axie Infinity’s AXS or Illuvium’s ILV. This challenges the $200B gaming industry’s centralized model, as seen with Axie Infinity’s $4B+ NFT sales peak in 2021, drawing millions from regions like the Philippines. However, sustainability falters when token inflation outpaces new player influx, as Axie’s decline post-2022 shows. Illuvium, with its AAA RPG promise and $5M funding, targets richer gameplay, potentially stabilizing value. Investment-wise, Axie’s established base offers recovery potential, while Illuvium’s pre-launch hype signals high-risk, high-reward prospects.
