What problem is the product / project solving?
In many ways, the gaming industry is turning into a "recurring revenue model" and capitalizing on increased demand. Samantha Greenberg, ex vice-president at Goldman Sachs said: “The initial purchase of a game is just the beginning of a game's monetization". While this is true and the gaming industry is generating billions of revenue, many gamers do not have a real incentive for their plays and time spent ingame.
To be able to earn some rewards from a video game, the player can for the best, get into a team of pro-gamers and start a career in esports. Those esports gamers are the new rockstars and they are becoming traditional sports celebrities, yet the odds of becoming an e-sport athlete are very low and for the most gamers it isn’t possible to realize that dream.
We see blockchain technologies and Steem as an imminent part of the gaming world, incentivizing daily users, trading gaming assets, and as a converter of a wider audience to the new technologies.
By giving an alternative and complementary way to reward gamers, DrugWars incentivizes gamers to earn from their passion. Such an incentive system not only encourages gamers to feel rewarded after their gaming sessions but also opens the way to a new era of gaming on the blockchain.
