Blockchain in Gaming Market
Dublin, July 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The “Blockchain in Gaming Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report by Game Type (Role Playing Games, Open World Games, Collectible Games), Platform (ETH, BNB Chain, Polygon), Device (Android, Web, IOS), and Region with Growth Forecasts, 2025-2030” report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.
The Blockchain in Gaming Market was valued at USD 13 billion in 2024, and is projected to reach USD 301.53 billion by 2030, rising at a CAGR of 69.40%. The market’s growth can be attributed to the growing shift from traditional games to blockchain-based games, driven by the demand for actual ownership and control of in-game assets, transparency, and new monetization opportunities.
In traditional games, players do not truly own their in-game assets and are subject to the rules and decisions of the game developer. However, with blockchain in the gaming industry, in-game assets are stored on a decentralized blockchain, providing players with full ownership and control over their assets. Additionally, blockchain technology provides a transparent and secure platform for gaming, reducing the risk of fraud.
Gaming metaverses are virtual worlds built on blockchain technology, providing a fully immersive and decentralized gaming experience. These virtual worlds are expected to be a significant trend in the blockchain gaming market in the coming years, providing new opportunities for gaming, socializing, and commerce. In a gaming metaverse, players can explore, interact, and participate in various activities within the virtual world.
Blockchain-based game providers are integrating Decentralized Finance (DeFi) protocols. By integrating DeFi protocols into blockchain games, game developers can provide new opportunities for monetization and investment in the gaming market. Players can earn cryptocurrency rewards by participating in the game, which can be used to purchase other in-game assets or traded on decentralized exchanges for other cryptocurrencies. This allows players to monetize their time, and skills and can create a more engaging and rewarding gaming experience.
