In 2024, the crypto industry has shown strong signs of revival. This isn’t just a simple rebound but a comprehensive process of continuous development, diversification, and maturation. The foundation of this resurgence is a wave of innovation that continuously expands the boundaries of possibilities in the blockchain and crypto fields. Each narrative marks a step towards a more interconnected, efficient, and accessible digital future.

When blockchain technology collides with the gaming industry, a revolution called GameFi quietly emerges. The rise of GameFi is not only a revolution in the gaming industry but also a significant development in the DeFi (decentralized finance) sector. By integrating the principles of DeFi into the gaming world, gaming platforms provide players with more financial freedom and control. Here, players are no longer just consumers but co-builders and beneficiaries of the gaming world. Games are no longer closed entertainment but open, continuously evolving economic systems. INTO protocol, as a highly open, flexible, and user-friendly platform, connects the worlds of on-chain and off-chain, inside and outside games, economics, and social aspects. It provides game developers with rich tools and resources, reduces development costs and barriers, promotes the birth and promotion of more high-quality games, and thus injects sustainable growth momentum into GameFi. It opens up a realm of possibilities for innovation in GameFi.

The inevitable path of upgrading blockchain game interaction

GameFi, as an innovative form of blockchain gaming, is undergoing a crucial period of transition from quantity to quality. More and more traditional gaming studios are beginning to explore the transformation into blockchain, and an increasing number of native blockchain games are emerging. However, when we examine the current development status of GameFi, we can easily identify some underlying issues that hinder its further breakthrough.

Firstly, there is still a sense of fragmentation in the gaming experience of GameFi. Many GameFi projects overly emphasize the elements of blockchain and token economy, neglecting the entertainment and immersion of the games themselves. Players frequently switch between games, wallets, and NFT markets, lacking coherence and integration in their experiences. This fragmentation not only reduces players’ enjoyment but also hinders the virtuous cycle of the blockchain gaming economy.

Secondly, the economic model of GameFi is still relatively immature. Many projects simply copy the gameplay of DeFi, blindly pursuing the rise in token prices, while lacking fine-tuned designs for the in-game economy. This has led many GameFi projects into the dilemma of a “stagnant water” economy: token prices fluctuate wildly in the short term, assets lack long-term value support, and the entire gaming economy struggles to achieve sustainable development.

Thirdly, GameFi often lacks meaningful community interaction. Games are supposed to be highly social mediums, but many current GameFi projects are weak in social interaction. Players lack the ability to establish lasting social relationships on-chain, weakening their sense of belonging and stickiness, and hindering the co-construction and co-governance of the blockchain gaming ecosystem.

Looking deeper, these problems reflect the inherent deficiencies of GameFi in infrastructure. The disconnect between traditional games and blockchain stems from the gap in underlying logic and technical architecture; the immaturity of in-game economies stems from the lack of a unified value circulation layer; and the lack of community interaction stems from the disconnect between on-chain identity and social relationships. To fundamentally address these issues, it is not enough for individual game projects to rely solely on their own efforts. We need to find breakthroughs in the underlying Web3 infrastructure.

This is where INTO plays a unique role. INTO, as a highly open, flexible, and user-friendly protocol, naturally connects the two worlds of on-chain and off-chain, inside and outside games, economics, and social aspects. INTO provides GameFi with a new interactive paradigm, a Web3 gaming infrastructure that bridges economics with communities, virtual with reality. This infrastructure will reconstruct the technical architecture of GameFi from the ground up, upgrade its interaction mode, and inject sustainable growth momentum into GameFi. In this transformation, INTO plays the crucial roles of “empowerer” and “connector”.

INTO Perspective: The Rise of GameFi and Empowering Players

INTO has paved a new path for the upgrading of interactive experiences in GameFi. At the core of this path is the deep integration of blockchain technology and social protocols, building a secure, efficient, and flexible underlying operating system for value circulation and community interaction in GameFi. Specifically, INTO’s fusion initiatives in GameFi can be summarized by three keywords: identity, assets, and governance.

Firstly, INTO provides GameFi players with a unified on-chain identity. Through the INTO wallet, players can easily create and manage their own Web3 identities, seamlessly connecting them to various blockchain games. This identity is not just a string of addresses or IDs but a player’s “digital avatar” in the blockchain gaming world. It records the player’s gaming history, achievements, assets, social relationships, and all other on-chain traces, serving as a complete mapping of the player in the Web3 gaming world.

Players can use this identity to freely navigate between different games, carrying data and assets with them without the need for repeated logins and authentication. More importantly, based on INTO’s social relationship chain technology, players can also link and migrate social graphs inside and outside games. Friendships and community affiliations established in one game can seamlessly carry over to other games, achieving “social relationship chainization.” This unified identity mechanism will fundamentally connect the user systems of GameFi, enhancing players’ immersion and continuity experience in the blockchain gaming ecosystem.

Secondly, INTO has built a multi-chain, multi-asset value circulation network for GameFi. Through tools such as cross-chain bridges, on-chain payments, NFT markets provided by INTO, GameFi can realize the free circulation and trading of game assets across different chains, games, and domains. This means that NFT equipment from one game can easily traverse to another universe and integrate into new gameplay; a player’s token earnings can be cashed out across chains at any time or invested in more promising blockchain gaming projects.

Finally, INTO’s asset layer will establish a “value internet” connecting multiple GameFi projects, forming a large-scale loop of the blockchain gaming economy. In this economic system, each game transitions from being a closed island to an open, interconnected economic entity.Games can achieve optimized resource allocation and amplify the network effects of value. This will greatly promote the prosperity and sustainable development of GameFi’s internal economy, injecting continuous innovative vitality into the blockchain gaming ecosystem.

Identity and assets, these two key initiatives are intertwined and mutually reinforcing, collectively forming the “internal logic” of INTO’s integration with GameFi. It can be foreseen that as the INTO protocol continues to develop and refine, the integration within the gaming ecosystem will become increasingly profound and comprehensive. INTO provides GameFi with a new interactive paradigm. Through its open architecture and rich functionality, INTO breaks down the boundaries between economics and communities, virtual and reality, creating a more diverse gaming experience for GameFi. Users can freely trade virtual assets in games and receive tangible rewards, thereby stimulating more participation and creativity.

Beyond Entertainment: INTO Expands the Economic Prospects of GameFi

The revolution of GameFi is not just a transformation of gaming forms but a profound change in production relations. The integration of INTO with GameFi will not only be a simple technical connection but also a paradigm shift, a reconstruction of production relations. Under this paradigm, blockchain games are no longer a simple combination of “Game + Token” but a true “gaming metaverse,” a brand new form of gaming civilization led by players, born for players, and thriving because of players.

The Ghost Warlords project within the INTO ecosystem is a typical case of successful integration. As a rising star in the gaming finance field, Ghost Warlords has won widespread acclaim since its inception for its innovative concepts and community engagement. Through deep integration with the INTO ecosystem, Ghost Warlords achieved remarkable results within just two months, with a user base exceeding 20,000 and NFT sales surpassing $5 million.

Specifically, Ghost Warlords adopted the following strategies in integrating with the INTO ecosystem:

Firstly, Ghost Warlords “designed to be open to INTO” in its underlying architecture. From the outset, Ghost Warlords was designed with the intention of linking and interoperating seamlessly with the INTO ecosystem, choosing blockchain and development frameworks compatible with INTO, reserving interfaces for connection to the INTO asset layer in economic model design, and setting governance rules to consider the overall interests of the INTO ecosystem. This enables Ghost Warlords to seamlessly integrate with INTO at the architectural level, laying a solid foundation for deeper integration.

Secondly, Ghost Warlords actively utilized the development tools and components provided by INTO to achieve rapid iteration and innovation. Based on the SDKs, APIs, and smart contract templates provided by INTO, Ghost Warlords significantly reduced development costs and deployment thresholds, realizing rapid development and deployment of game features. This not only improves the efficiency of Ghost Warlords’ deployment but also allows it to invest more resources in game innovation and community building.

Additionally, Ghost Warlords fully leveraged INTO’s advantages in cross-chain interoperability to achieve cross-domain circulation of game assets. Through the cross-chain bridges built by INTO, Ghost Warlords’ NFTs and other game assets can freely move and be used across multiple mainstream public chains such as Ethereum, BSC, and Polygon. This significantly broadens the scope of Ghost Warlords’ asset circulation and attracts player communities from different chains, greatly expanding Ghost Warlords’ user base and influence.

Lastly, Ghost Warlords places high importance on brand building and community operations within the INTO ecosystem. Ghost Warlords actively embraces the core user community of INTO, allowing INTO users to deeply participate in the design, testing, and feedback of the game through various forms such as airdrops, joint activities, and experience sandboxes. For example, Ghost Warlords recently collaborated with the global gaming community alliance, Tide Gaming Guild (TGG), to hold the highly anticipated Tide Connection event on Phu Quoc island in Vietnam. This event brought together many well-known TGG agencies from India, Turkey, South Korea, China, Malaysia, Vietnam, and other countries around the world, not only promoting exchanges in the gaming industry but also creating important opportunities for Ghost Warlords to connect with the global gaming community.

It can be said that the successful practices of Ghost Warlords provide valuable experience and insights for other GameFi projects to integrate into the INTO ecosystem. It demonstrates a development path of integration through open architecture, tool utilization, cross-chain interoperability, ecological linkage, and community operations.

INTO not only empowers game players and developers but also connects the gaming world with the blockchain world, driving further development and growth of GameFi. With the continuous improvement and development of INTO, GameFi is poised to embrace a brighter future.It can be foreseen that as more high-quality GameFi projects join, INTO will become a fertile ground for blockchain gaming interaction and innovation, expanding the scope and capabilities of GameFi.
