Around US$100 billion is spent annually on virtual items, yet consumers often lack true ownership of these digital assets. However, the emergence of blockchain gaming is changing this landscape by allowing players to acquire tokenized in-game assets, which grants them full rights to their digital property. Traditional gaming platforms typically retain control over virtual items stored in private databases, enabling developers to make unilateral decisions about these assets. This shift towards tokenization not only enhances ownership rights in gaming but also addresses broader issues related to digital economies.
