In-Game Asset Trading refers to the exchange of virtual items, characters, or digital currencies within video games, often possessing real-world monetary value. This activity is increasingly facilitated by blockchain technology, enabling true ownership and verifiable scarcity of these digital goods as non-fungible tokens (NFTs). Such trading allows players to monetize their time and skill. It creates secondary markets for digital collectibles.
