The next generation of gaming platforms removes those barriers where you can play, earn and own all of your in-game assets which today are being experienced by over three million players on some of the most popular and newest platforms who have raised billions of dollars in venture capital money in just a few short years. Statistics have also shown us that gaming is a hugely fun and engaging experience however it can be an expensive hobby and as soon as you leave or complete the game - you no longer have access to those assets or avatars you purchased throughout the experience.
