What is a blockchain or cryptocurrency game?
A blockchain or crypto game is a video game using blockchain technology in their gameplay mechanics, often in the form of rewarding players in some manner with in-game money, or perhaps with NFTs. Blockchain technology includes cryptocurrencies, like Solana, Bitcoin & Ethereum, and is the use of a distributed and decentralized ledger for the accounting of data.
