Polygon (MATIC) Co-Founder Praises Gaming As A Huge Opportunity

Polygon co-founder is praising gaming as a massive opportunity. Check out the latest reports about this below.

During his recent Reddit ask-me-anything (AMA) session, Sandeep Nailwal, co-founder of Polygon (MATIC), an Ethereum (ETH) layer-2 scaling solution, shared his belief that the future of cryptocurrency is in the gaming industry. He also answered questions about his project and the crypto space in general.

When asked about potential real-life use cases for the blockchain, the Polygon co-founder said he thought gaming represents the “largest-scale opportunity for crypto.”

“And gaming adopts new technology in hoards. There are some top games launching in Web3 in the next 6-18 months and it would be very interesting to see if some of them are able to crack the crypto code.”

He continued and stated the following as per the online publication the Daily Hodl:

“Last year itself there was $2 billion+ in funding for Web3 games. Polygon combined with its ecosystem players like ImmutableX (IMX) got the lion’s share in terms of those funded games. Fingers crossed for some of them to go big!”
