Web3 projects are taking over the earlier P2E gaming, offering game-first launches with tokenization at a later date. Overall, NFT sales and token offers are becoming less aggressive, and NFT are used as prizes. The crypto market retains relative stability, which has helped some of the tokenized projects. But in 2023, there are also well-financed teams offering new games. Blockchains and platforms realized Web3 is here to stay, and 13 crypto chains and scaling solutions were added as Approved Unity SDK providers.

Upcoming Airdrops and Giveaways
NFT mints remain an important part of Web3 adoption. Projects are looking for easier tools to bring in as many users as possible. Free or earned NFT are displacing high-priced collections with a barrier to entry.
The best approach is to designate a separate project for new mints, and store other items more safely. Avoid following links from direct messages. Minting gas and relisting fees may vary by collections and platforms.
