Learn this concept: GameFi Trilemma 🧵👇
The #GameFi trilemma is composed of ● playability
● profitability
● accessibility.
The problem arises when games only can optimize two components at any given time.
● profitability
● accessibility.
The problem arises when games only can optimize two components at any given time.
Eg.
Web 2.0 games give up profitability for players.
Most Web 3.0 games have given up accessibility by charging a hefty price for NFTs.
And for each component in the trilemma, there are existing problems and we'd like to highlight some potential solutions. 💡

1/6 Part of the disagreement between pro and anti #blockchaingames people stems from different definitions of what a ‘game’ is
2/6 Traditionally - a video game is the piece of software that players interact with to get a sense of fulfilment. To ‘have fun’.
Given this definition, it’s not surprising that some say ‘blockchain doesn’t do anything that we can’t already do!’

-Having a financial stake in the game you love, and getting a feeling of excitement when it grows in popularity
