The gaming industry is on the threshold of significant changes that are connected with blockchain technologies implementation. In 2013 there Hunter Coin regarded as the prototype of blockchain games appeared. Since then the sphere of blockchain gaming has been rapidly developing and leading blockchain platforms strive to conquer the industry understanding its future perspectives.
Why blockchain games are the future of gaming industry?
On the one hand contemporary games are thoroughly worked out and ‘equipped’ by ultra graphics and extended functionality. On the other hand blockchain games provide the quality people are mad about since ancient times. That is about uniqueness, individuality. Playing traditional games the users have certain functions package therefore the principle of uniqueness is excluded while blockchain offers completely different approach. In 2017 the Canadian company AxiomZen released the first fully-functional blockchain game Crypto Kitties. The game became extremely popular all over the world within a short period of time.

Who are the main competitors in blockchain gaming industry?
Numerous companies are going to launch platforms for blockchain games observing the current growth and future perspectives of the industry. But nowadays Ethereum and TRON are regarded as the main competitors for the blockchain gaming industry throne.
Ethereum is the most respected blockchain platform due to its status and reputation. The first blockchain game Crypto Kitties was launched on Ethereum platform but it has two essential
disadvantages. Foremost gaming industry is not among the project priorities despite of the fact that more than 80 games have been already launched on Ethereum. On the other hand Ethereum transaction rate is lower than competitor’s one.
The principle advantage is that most large blockchain gaming platforms like WAX or Play Bets use ERC-20 standard on the Ethereum blockchain. Moreover TRX tokens were also launched using ERC-20 standard.
Meanwhile TRON took a distinct course towards blockchain gaming industry leading offering better conditions than Ethereum.
Why TRON is expected to conquer the blockchain gaming industry
According to BlackBall experts, in the nearest future TRON is expected to become the dominating platform in blockchain gaming industry. The reasons are the following: The industry is regarded as priority. In the project’s White Paper the entertainment industry was indicated as the main one.
TRON is providing migration from ERC-20 standard to their own standard TRON-20 becoming independent from Ethereum network.
TRON offers high transaction rate (up to 2 000 transactions per second in comparison with 15-25 transactions per second in Ethereum).
The company announced fund establishing for blockchain games developers planning to invest $100 ml there in the next three years.
TRON-20 uses Solidity, the same software language as ERC-20 use therefore TRON is able to drain away blockchain gaming market participants who now use Ethereum
