If Web3 Adoption Is Going To Be Driven by Gaming, We’re Going To Need Better Tools
TL;DR
Solana just launched 'GameShift,' which is a unified API designed to make developing Web3 games way easier.
Just because a team of developers knows how to code together a game, doesn't mean they know how to code/integrate blockchain-based in-game items/currencies. Unified API's like GameShift help to solve that.

Up-bup-bup! Don't scroll away.
We know that listing this story under '🔎 This seems important' might feel like a stretch - but hear us out!
We believe the gaming space is going to be a big (dare we say, main) driver of crypto adoption in the coming years, because gamers already spend hours collecting digital items and in-game currencies, for fun!
Giving those items/currencies real-world value feels like a logical next step in growing the industry - and crypto is the way to do it.
Now. Here's the problem...
Just because a team of developers knows how to code together a game, doesn't mean they know how to code/integrate blockchain-based in-game items/currencies.
That's a steep learning curve!
Unified API's like GameShift help to solve that.
Think of it like building a house from scratch (no API), vs. building a house using pre-fabricated modular pieces (with an API).
You still need experience in building and construction to do either, but the latter is a whole lot easier and faster!
