PlayFi

In recent years, decentralized gaming has taken the industry by storm. This is due to the fact that it provides a new dimension for studios/developers to engage with their players and offers more benefits to players such as digital property rights and second-market liquidity. Moreover, it incentivizes gamers to play and earn financial rewards. However, the downside of this new economic model is that it becomes harder to manage the economy due to the tokenization of in- game assets. It also entices speculative extractors to join solely based on the fact that they can generate financial rewards rather than a genuine interest in the game.

''Ultimately, crypto is primarily going to serve as the backend accounting engine that facilitates ticketing, payments, player NFT contracts (on-chain reputation), automated tournament bounty smart contracts, and so on.'' - Delphi Digital

The Crystale core team strongly believes in a model in which extractors cannot simply buy their way to success or rewards but rather have to actively engage within the Crystale Verse in order to progress. We are strong advocates of the PlayFi model as described by Delphi Digital as it suits the Crystale vision seamlessly. As Delphi Digital states: The correlation between the increased difficulty of the game and the increased economic opportunities/participation is at the root of PlayFi. Similarly, this is also at the root of Crystale, however, there will be more on this in the upcoming player reward chapter.
