Overview of GameFi and In-depth Analysis of YGG

The concept of GameFi originated at the Wuzhen Conference at the end of 2019, combining decentralized finance with gaming. Its core feature is "play to earn" (. Through blockchain technology, GameFi transforms traditional game assets into on-chain NFTs or FTs, endowing games with financial attributes. This gives game items uniqueness and collectible value, and players also gain ownership of the related data.

Putting game assets on the blockchain is beneficial for both game companies and players. Game companies can collect taxes in the secondary market, while players can earn profits through the games. This reduces the intermediate circulation of funds and items, maintaining the game ecosystem. As user participation increases, the game content will continue to enrich, forming a virtuous cycle.

Currently, GameFi faces challenges in playability and the sustainability of capital circulation. However, games remain the preferred choice for blockchain applications to break through barriers, and the decline in popularity helps purify the user base, prompting project parties to address real issues. At the same time, the GameFi ecosystem is relatively healthy, with DAOs like YGG integrating resources to form a community of healthy competition. The full-chain game narrative represented by Dark Forest is also gradually unfolding.

In July 2021, it completed a $24 million financing, and in February 2023, it raised another $13.8 million for the development of its reputation Token. YGG Japan also completed a financing of approximately $2.95 million in January 2023. This indicates that capital is optimistic about the GameFi market and the blockchain gaming community.

YGG native token economic model

YGG token is an Ethereum ERC-20 standard token that has multiple functions within the community:

  1. Participate in governance decisions, voting on community rules, investment strategies, etc.
  2. Distribute community earnings
  3. As an incentive mechanism, encourage members to participate in games and community activities.
  4. Free trading on the exchange, providing liquidity.

As of August 8, 2023, the value of YGG's treasury assets is $185.74 million, primarily derived from native tokens. Recently, benefiting from the Ethereum Cancun upgrade, the price of YGG tokens surged, significantly boosting the value of the treasury assets.
