Takeaway
In this session, attendees will discover how fully on-chain games are changing the landscape of gaming by putting everything—characters, items, and game rules—directly on the blockchain. We’ll discuss how this approach gives players true ownership of their in-game assets, creates fairer economies, and ensures a more transparent gaming experience. Attendees will walk away with a better understanding of the benefits and challenges of these games, including how they can create more lasting, player-controlled worlds and new ways for communities to shape and grow their games.
Intended Audience
This session is tailored for game developers, blockchain engineers, and creators interested in the unique challenges and opportunities of fully on-chain games. If you’re looking to understand how to design games where every asset, action, and rule is recorded directly on the blockchain—ensuring true ownership and permanence—this session is for you
