List of Things You Need to Do to Succeed in the Web3

Contrary to widespread assumption, interest in web3 gaming is growing. The popularity of video games is increasing. Web3 gaming is a primary driver of new early-stage crypto investments, according to Galaxy's Q2 2022 VC report.

Leading firms, Galaxy Interactive and Immutable, have raised $1.5 billion to invest in web3 game businesses. Nonetheless, most casual gamers dislike NFTs and blockchain integrations, even at the concept stage, or are at least uninterested in the general notion.

Stash Has Launched a New Protocol

That golden sword? Yes, you can use it for free | Stash SDK is out!

Stash focuses on renting game assets and merging what is known as "Scholarship" in the Play-and-Earn environment with the marketplace notion. It may appear to be a curated intermediary marketplace listing the NFTs of collaborating games. Still, once Early Access is done, it has an ideal vision that any game company can employ their idle NFTs by opening them up for rent, increasing circulation and volume in the ecosystem.

Stash has introduced a protocol that can serve as the access layer for NFTs in web3 games, allowing studios and developers who join the marketplace to implement financialization options such as NFT rental, lending quickly, and "Buy Now Pay Later" into their games. The platform allows for simple implementation via SDKs for reward shares, paid rentals, and BNPL, resulting in a simple, fast, and safe solution in four stages. Do you want to learn more?
