The Integration of Decentralization Social and Gaming: Sketching the Future Blueprint of Web3

1. The Essence of Decentralization in Social Networking

Social interaction is a fundamental human need, but traditional centralized social platforms face issues such as data monopoly and privacy breaches. Decentralization in social media aims to enable users to truly control their own data and identity through blockchain technology, allowing for freedom of choice and data portability.

However, Decentralization social is currently facing bottlenecks such as insufficient traffic and lack of application scenarios. Games, as an important carrier of social interaction, are expected to become a breakthrough.

2. The Integration Direction of Social and Gaming

1. User-Centric GameID

Aggregate user data across various games to form a complete gaming identity profile. Representative projects include Carv, DeQuest, and others.

2. Cross-platform social tools

Provide social components for games to enable cross-game and cross-platform communication, such as XMTP, Web3MQ, etc.

3. Supports NFT interoperability in games

Allow users to bring their own NFTs into the game for use, expanding the application scenarios of NFTs. Such as Arcade, Worldwide Webb, etc.

4. Mini games based on existing social relationships

Similar to early social games like QQ Farm, but based on Web3 technology. Such as the game module in the Mask plugin.

5. AI-driven Virtual Relationships

Utilizing AI technology to create intelligent NPCs or virtual pets to enrich social interactions, such as rct AI and Mirror World.

3. Future Outlook

The integration of social and gaming is expected to become an important scenario for breaking through the traffic bottleneck in Web3. With the advancement of technology, more innovative models will emerge, reshaping people's social interactions and virtual world experiences.
