The companies in the sector, in fact, have raised investments totaling 1.1 billion dollars, recording an increase of +314% compared to the previous quarter.
Among the highlights of the report, DappRadar states that blockchain gaming is leading in the Web3 sector, representing 28% of all dapp activity and attracting 2.8 million active wallets every day.
Blockchain Gaming Web3: the first dapp is Ronin with 1.9 million new daily wallets
Leading the Blockchain Gaming Web3 scene is Ronin, the Ethereum sidechain for the Axie Infinity ecosystem.
Ronin has attracted over 1.9 million new daily wallets, with a 100% increase compared to the previous quarter.
Other Blockchain Gaming development platforms that have recorded significant activity this quarter are Immutable zkEVM and opBNB. Specifically, Immutable zkEVM has recorded an increase of 715.136%, while opBNB has seen an 80.459% rise.
Not only that, in terms of unique active wallets in the gaming landscape, there is also Pixels which has attracted 48 million UAW (Unique Active Wallet) throughout the entire quarter.
On the contrary of all these increases, the collections based on metaverse NFT have instead recorded a decrease in Q2 2024. The trading volume dropped by -29%, while sales by -21%.
The 2023 report and the decline of metaverse projects
On the contrary to the present report on blockchain gaming that shows the growth of sector interest, other previous reports from DappRadar have instead shown changes in the scenario.
In fact, just last year, DappRadar had published a report stating that projects in the metaverse were experiencing a decline in interest among investors.
In fact, it seems that in Q2 2023, the trading volume of metaverse projects had decreased by 80%, reaching 56 million dollars.
This decline in interest was interpreted by DappRadar as a change of scenario, leading the public to turn their attention to other topics such as meme tokens and Artificial Intelligence (AI). In any case, the metaverse, at that time, accounted for 43.68% of investments in the Web3 sector.
