According to a report by ChainPlay, 93% of GameFi projects have failed, resulting in token prices dropping by an average of 95%. GameFi, which combines gaming with decentralized finance, initially surged during the 2022 crypto bull run but has since experienced a sharp decline. The report also highlights that GameFi projects have an extremely short lifespan, lasting on average only four months. Venture capital involvement in GameFi has also been inconsistent, with 58% of VCs experiencing losses. However, top-performing VCs like Alameda Research have continued to see returns. Despite the downturn, the GameFi sector still attracts investment, although with more caution. VC funding for GameFi in 2024 decreased by 13% compared to 2023 and 84.6% from its peak in 2022. The report suggests that future success in the sector will depend on delivering solid gameplay experiences and building lasting ecosystems.
