Our niche, Gaming has always been a story of evolution. From the early arcade cabinets that brought competitive fun to local arcades to the revolutionary home consoles of the 80s and 90s, the gaming industry has consistently pushed the boundaries of technology, engagement, and accessibility. The transition from single-player experiences to online multiplayer changed how we interacted with games, while the rise of mobile gaming made entertainment more accessible than ever. Today, we are witnessing another fundamental shift—one that redefines ownership, player autonomy, and economic participation in gaming. This shift is often referred to as "Web3 gaming".

Last Thursday, we hosted our first-ever "Play & Chat" AMA in style with CEOs (former and current). This was a special live session during which our community got to hang out with our new CEO, Nokkvi. We then dived deep into the GAIMIN ecosystem and the world of Gaming, with the CEO of Katana Inu in attendance. The CEOs played Katana Inu LIVE while discussing the key subjects and answering the community’s burning questions.

For years, game developers have relied on traditional distribution platforms like Steam and the Epic Games Store to reach players worldwide. Rightfully so, these platforms have delivered hundreds of thousands of games for developers worldwide. While these platforms provide essential visibility, they also have several drawbacks: high revenue cuts, discoverability challenges, limited engagement tools, and, most increasingly, a higher barrier to entry/launch.

Gaming Meets Web3 The gaming industry is no stranger to innovation, consistently pushing the boundaries of technology and culture. From the rise of online multiplayer platforms to the proliferation of in-game economies, gamers have embraced new paradigms faster than most industries. Now, the Web3 economy—characterized by blockchain technology, decentralization, and digital ownership—is poised to revolutionize gaming yet again.
