LBank establishes GameFi Fund

LBank, a cryptocurrency exchange platform which has an LB Labs Fund based out of UAE has established a dedicated GameFi fund to support sector development. GameFi is a hybrid of blockchain gaming and DeFi, changing the gaming industry with “play-to-earn” models that differ from traditional “pay-to-win” models. LB Bank Group CEO Allen Wei is based in the UAE leading the LBank Labs Fund.

GameFi is allowing users to seize character cards and lands in games in the form of NFTs. Parts of DeFi are also transferring to GameFi, such as staking. Users can store their tokens and gain an annual interest or secret rewards.

Recognizing the potential of this field, LBank is paving way for GameFi projects by dedicating funds to their development. All Wei told UNLOCK, " We are investing in various blockchain projects and not just gamefi."

The platform has established a dedicated GameFi fund in order to support early-stage projects and expand their influence in the blockchain space. Many projects listed on LBank have already surged in popularity. Here a few notable gainers.

Future of GameFi

What makes GameFi truly special, is the potential of financial freedom. Instead of gaming and letting the game developers rake in your earnings, blockchain incentivizes users by paying them for their time. Tokens and NFTs give the financial power back to the users, giving them more reason to continue their presence in the decentralized universe.

From anywhere on the planet, a user can game, win, and cash their virtual assets in real life. This gives anyone with a computer and internet access the potential of making a living online. A freedom that has until now been reserved for only a limited group of people.

As NFTs and Defi become increasingly mainstream, so will GameFi. For the growth and development of this early-stage hybrid creation, much support is needed. Only with the devotion of users, exchanges and communities alike can we develop GameFi into greater things that might change our lives in the near future for good.
