Leading Games by Number of Users

Leading games have short-term shifts, as in the case of Sunflower Land reaching the top position briefly. Depending on the game model, some Web3 features require more on-chain interactions. Other games shift their transactions off the blockchain, or boost participation during tournaments, special events or airdrop campaigns. Axie Infinity retains under 10K users, despite running Origins Season 4 and a new season of Homeland. The game relies on free players and off-chain battles, still marking record engagement in terms of matches played.

P2E Token Price Action

The market cap of all P2E tokens retreated to $4.41B, as BTC still survived above $30,000. However, tokens remain range-bound, as games switch to Web3 ownership and are more conservative about trading.

Upcoming Mints, Airdrops, and Giveaways

• Daren Market Minting Now
• Dorkz Minting Now
• Pandilla Net from July 15
• Timemium Collectibles from July 23

NFT airdrops continue to be an important part of Web3 marketing and potential adoption. Collectibles still seek a wide reach, relying on peak activity. NFT detailed data are key to the more active niche trading, despite the passing of peak NFT hype. Games retain the token standard successfully, though with less active trading and more as a loyalty tool to retain players.
