NFTs or whatever we call them in the long run will probably be important. I started working on an Ethereum game dApp in 2017. My NFTs are actual assets in a game that also runs on-chain. By following the ERC721 standard, I don't have to build a marketplace for my game assets. Gamers can just use any marketplace they like. I'm also going to have an ERC20 token that is just the in-game currency. It doesn't have to be ERC20 but by following the standard, again, I get the benefit of being able to trade the currency using most wallets. We're definitely heading towards a new kind of ecosystem where the concept of tokens are going to play a huge role. But I think we're also still pretty early in the cycle of innovation. Exciting times imho.

That sounds like a user experience that's going to be pretty prohibitive for most consumers though. Only hardcore crypto enthusiasts who also want to play your game are going to be willing to set up a wallet and figure out how to trade your NFTs.

Sounds like when gaming companies said that micro-transactions and pay-to-win were exciting times because they allowed people with less time to still play as if they had wasted lots of time.

Except here it sounds like just being able to be part of groups.
