Games are getting a boost from both a newly active crypto market, and signs of growth in Web3 solutions. With BTC reviving above $30K, all related projects may regain interest. However, Web3 gaming is trying to branch out on its own based on merits and fun games. Interest in P2E and NFT games is also shown by the latest Axie infinity statistics, showing an uptick in PvP matches for the latest Origins season. Other games are also active with special events and giveaways.

Leading games remain in their usual range, with the added bonus of Axie Infinity: Homeland starting its next pre-launch season this week.

The market cap of all P2E tokens recovered to $4.6B, adding $600M in the past week as BTC moved closer to $31,000 and ETH returned close to $1,900. Niche game tokens are still risky, but gaming benefits from a more bullish crypto market.
Upcoming Mints, Airdrops, and Giveaways
NFT airdrops may lead to owning rare and valuable items, depending on the goals of each collection. However, it is important to avoid spam NFT and use new wallets for some of the mints. Mints not related to games continue to be popular, with more Web3 tools for detailed, real-time resale statistics. Data-driven NFT trading is taking off, based on collection popularity.
