Virtual World Economy

Definition

A virtual world economy is a self-contained economic system operating within a digital environment, where participants create, exchange, and consume virtual goods and services. This economy involves its own currencies, marketplaces, and value propositions for digital assets. It can range from centralized systems controlled by game developers to decentralized models powered by blockchain technology. The dynamics of supply, demand, and perceived value govern transactions within these digital realms.
