While blockchain-based gaming is certainly gaining traction, I remain skeptical about how quickly it will completely disrupt traditional gaming. The transition from centralized platforms to fully decentralized games faces significant challenges, such as scalability, regulatory hurdles, and mainstream adoption. Traditional gaming giants have their entrenched user bases and the infrastructure to support massive player networks, so integrating blockchain into these games could be a slow and cautious process, at least in the short term. The future might see blockchain more as a supplementary feature, like in smart contract casinos, rather than a complete shift to decentralized gaming. However, platforms like
CoinPoker show that blockchain can offer exciting alternatives in the gambling space, providing provably fair games and increased transparency. As for the broader gaming space, the next decade might see gradual adoption of blockchain in specific niches, but it may not fully overhaul traditional gaming models as some envision.
