India seems to be having an NFT renaissance with blockchain gaming. More and more crypto guilds are looking to grow their numbers with each day, and host events to spread awareness on titles that boast the play-to-earn model.

G-Donkey Esports is one such growing guild who feels that NFTs are not only here to stay but will be second nature to everyone in a couple of years. In a conversation with Abhishek Mallick of Sportskeeda Esports, they opened up about the future of blockchain gaming in a region like India and South Asia.

They talked about their NFT esports event, Axie Yudh, and what their future plans are for the region.

Here is an excerpt of the conversation.

Unlike traditional games that are centralized, where the game developers control all assets and currency, blockchain games are decentralized. They aim to distribute in-game assets (NFTs) to their players, and these assets have value beyond the games.

Players gain full ownership of these assets, which can be traded and sold in the secondary markets. Blockchain-based games have the advantage of making the process of online game assets trading more transparent.
