Panel: Blockchain and gaming – The winning combo?
summary
Panel argues that blockchain’s game use is practical: a studio creates a power token and a trading platform so Facebook and Twitter users can hold and move currency across titles, but Apple rules force in‑game purchases to be separated and regulators push ICOs toward security‑style compliance. Examples include a live token sale, heavy community management with developer diaries, and plans for a decentralized exchange for items. Main surprises are investor short‑termism, persistent scams, and that utility vs security token classification drives fundraising, listing and legal risk.
