Until recently video games could only provide rewards to players who remained within the
games environment. However, developers are now looking into new avenues for monetizing
the digital value generated within the gaming universe. Some new monetary models have emerged
in the gaming industry because of the use of cryptocurrency and NF Ts. Some of these
models allow gamers to potentially earn money simply by participating in their favorite
video game activities. These types of games are referred to as play, to earn games. Disclaimer,

only. Hey everyone, welcome to crypto trends
In today's video, we'll talk about play to earn crypto games and how to make money from
them. So make sure to subscribe to the channel so you don't miss out on any of our videos.
So without further ado, let's get into it. What are play to earn games overall play to
earn games are those that allow players to enjoy them. In terms of gameplay, such as
conducting battles, breeding their in game characters, completing quests, or completing
various other tasks, they will receive some form of in game currency that can be used
to purchase NFTs later, Ron, or they can transfer the currency directly to a cryptocurrency
wallet where it can be sold or traded for tokens or currencies that can be used to make
real world payments such as Bitcoin. This is the method by which players are compensated
for their participation in these crypto games.
And it is one of the primary incentives for players to participate actively in these games.
Hence the enormous growth in popularity of games that require players to play, to learn.
As a result, we will be discussing some of the most popular cryptocurrency games, which
are worth millions of dollars. In some cases, even billions of dollars and are traded on
a daily basis. Number one, ay infinity on August 8th, 2021, ay infinity became the first
Ethereum based NFT game to achieve a million dollar sales milestone. More than a million
people are currently playing the game. A Vietnamese company known as sky Mavis developed this
most popular NFT game on the market. Right now, it is one of the most lucrative games
available on the entire blockchain network. Ay, infinity is essentially a Pokemon inspired
game in which you can create a team of creatures known as axes that you can use to battle other
players in the arena mode or fight enemies in the adventure mode.
In the arena mode, you can battle other players while in the adventure mode, you can fight
enemies. There are two cryptocurrencies in the game, the ax infinity token or AXS, which
is the primary currency and the smooth love potion or SLP, which is a secondary currency.
The AXS currency can be obtained by placing high on the PVP leaderboard. While the SLP
currency can be obtained by completing adventure mode levels and winning arena matches it is
necessary to have both tokens in order to breed a ay and this a process that can only
be completed. If you already have two, a axis, each ay is an NFT with a unique set of body
parts that determine its skills as well as its rarity. They are typically sold for around
$101,000 with extremely rare ones, selling four hundreds of thousands of dollars, such
as ay. Number 1,733 known as venom was sold for 110 ether on March 23rd, 2019.
And then for 104.25 ether on September 25th, 2020, despite the fact that the ay infinity
is a play to earn game, it continues to attract NFT collect because a axis can sell for a
significant amount of money. According to DAP radar, it is the fourth largest marketplace
in the world. On the other hand, the AXS token is trading at $136 and 65 cents with a market
cap of $2.9 billion. Ay, infinity is a game that require is three axes to begin playing
to get started. You must purchase three axes from the marketplace. However, it is worthwhile
to invest time and effort into the game because it does indeed pay well in a variety of ways.
Number two decentral land, there is a good chance that cryptocurrency investors and enthus
theists have heard of the decentral land's mana coin before this project was one of the
first of its kind having been launched in 2017 through an initial coin offering that
raised 24 million decentral land is a virtual world game that runs on the Ethereum blockchain
in which players can create and monetize various types of content and applications such as
plots of land in order to earn money, the land can then be moderated with features that
distinguish it and make it more appealing to other players, potentially allowing it
to be sold for a higher price to them in the future.
At the end of 2021, a plot of land on decent land was sold for more than two point for
3 million. Additionally decentral land has a second token in addition to its native manana,
much like ax, infinity. Yeah, I'm talking about land. It's basically ERC 7 21 tokens

games has a similar gameplay like decentral land, a utility token known as sand can be
used by players to transact in the marketplace and to trade digital lands. The gimmick of
sandbox is in fact, the limited supply of 166,464 lands, which drives up demand while
making it prohibit inevitably expensive to acquire them on the subject of graphics and
interface players in the sandbox will be able to create their own methods of monetizing
content while reminiscing about the classic Minecraft experience in which scenery and
items are presented in block form trading lands and objects, as well as completing in
game tasks are the most effective ways to earn money in the sandbox.

On the other hand is a trading card game in which players compete against one another
using a deck of cards that includes core cards and Genesis cards. Core cards are the cards
that you earn for free simply by playing the game and completing objectives.
There are however card packs that players can purchase. If they want to avoid the tedious
process of grinding. These were sold prior to the games release and are no longer available
for purchase or use. Therefore, if you intend on using them, you will have to purchase them
from another player. The imutable X marketplace is where players can buy and sell any of the
cards that are available in the game. This marketplace accepts Ethereum as a form of
payment, which means you'll need a meta mask wallet or another supported wallet to participate.
Each card has a unique set of stats and rarity. The more rarer card is the higher the price
at which it can be sold. In fact, on December 6th, 2019, more than two years ago, a God's

God's tokens to craft NFTs, to purchase packs from the gods Unchained marketplace, and to
earn even more rewards by storing the tokens in imutable X, all of which can be done with
the tokens. This token also serves as a voting power, allowing you to participate in governance
proposals that have the potential to influence the games development in the future. The God's
Unchained is a game worth playing because the God's token is currently trading at $2
and 21 cents making it one of the most valuable gaming tokens available in the crypto world

Number six, ELU ELU is a 3d RPG open world game that runs on the Ethereum blockchain
and features auto battle mechanics. The primary goal of the game, similar to old school RPG
gameplay is for players to win battles, complete quests and advance through the ranks with
the primary award being I L V tokens, which are digital assets, NFT alluvial is, is a
creature with a variety of skills which players can collect and upgrade in order to win battles
against other players. When trading in the Eluvia marketplace players can use real world
money to purchase both NFT alluvials and in game items, similar to how they do in other
NFT games. The integration of Ellum with imutable act, the protocols of layer two solutions
for NFTs with zero fee charges has increased the visibility of the company to differentiate
itself from other Ethereum blockchain based gaming platforms.
ELU is able to provide its community with free peer-to-peer trading, which eliminates
the need for a gas fee. According to expectations, ELU will allow gamers to enjoy gameplay and
trading across a range of defi platforms when it will release in the first quarter of 2022,
which implies very soon. Number seven plant versus unad. In addition to being extremely
versatile plant versus UADs farm mode keeps you engaged by providing you with the opportunity
to earn light energy, which in turn results in P tokens, having NFTs as control over your
in game plant versus unad assets provides you with a means of earning money. All you
play the game, this is what distinguishes it as a play to earn game. So basically this
is a game in which players manage their farm and to produce light energy or Le, which is
the in game currency. Currently these light energy tokens can be exchanged for the cryptocurrency
token known as plant versus unad token or VU, which can be used to fight zombies.
And afterwards, this token can be traded on a variety of decentralized exchanges to earn
you'll need to harvest seeds, complete daily quests, such as watering the plants of other
players, and generally do anything else that is required with the farm or surrounding area.
The plant versus undead token or VU has a value of 7.45, 9 cents making it a valuable
token to earn. And one that if AMAs over a long period could result in a substantial
payout. Aside from that, you can sell NFT plants on the marketplace where common NFT
plants sell for around 10 P tokens and rare NFT plants will sell for more than 100 P tokens.
So some players can simply plant plants and earn light tokens that can be converted into
VU while others can concentrate on selling NFT through marketplaces, the game runs on
the BSC or bin smart chain. You can however, use a meta mask wallet.
If it is connected to the BSC, if you prefer how much money can you make from play to one
games, the amount of money earned through play to one games varies. But for most players,
it is unlikely to be enough to allow them to quit their day jobs. Income potential is
determined by variables. So such as the game in question and its current popularity demand
for any NFTs or tokens offered and the general state of the crypto market, while some NFTs
earned in games have sold for hundreds of dollars. This has not been the standard thus
far players that spend longer time in the game may have a better chance of earning more,
but there is no assurance owing to the other factors listed. However, some people in underdeveloped
nations where the us dollar is more valuable than the local Fiat money have been able to
replace their unemployment benefits by playing play to games.
Final thought. Historically, the only method to monetize anything linked to video games
was to sell an account in games like world of Warcraft. For example, some new players
may be willing to pay for an account that already contains established characters at
high levels and sophisticated goods. Newer pay to win games are now a part of the expanding.
