Panel: Web2 or Web3 Gaming - Who is Going to Survive?
summary
Panel asserts adding web3 increases revenue without cannibalizing IAP and even decreases CPI, but converting regular web2 players remains “almost impossible.” Examples: Blast Royale ships on app stores with NFT integration; skill‑based minting experiments (Yuga Labs style) aim to boost retention. Practical problems: App Store friction, stolen NFTs and bot farms tracked via on‑chain analytics, and players convert better when crypto is hidden in UX or presented as collectibles/hub rather than “wallets.”
