Bitcoin NFTs are still “primitive”
According to Jeff Zirlin, co-founder of Sky Mavis, the company that created the Ronin network, more NFT usage is beneficial. The CEO stated to Cointelegraph that while they are competitive with blockchain gaming ecosystems, they have yet to concentrate on Bitcoin. Zirlin stated:
“We haven’t been paying too much attention to Bitcoin NFTs because they are still primitive and unrelated to gaming. In general, more adoption of NFTs is good and we’re more competitive with ecosystems that focus specifically on gaming.”
According to Zirlin, video games are currently “in a state of evolution.” The co-founder of Sky Mavis clarified that the rising expense of acquiring new users has caused techniques that used to be effective for game companies to start to provide declining returns.
Zirlin continued, “Web3 offers an alternative path that creates longer-lasting games via ownership-based revenue models and incentive alignment with your core audience.”
