NFT Play to Earn : the future of games (Axies Infinity, Ember Sword, Sandbox, Aavegotchi)

Hello, or rather good evening.

I've found something I've invested myself quite a while ago. But I've never saw any mention about it on Steam. So here the reason why, I've decided to make one instead. Enough with the teasing, I will explain how Play to Earn works. And before we start sorry for my passable english and dyslexia. Geez this is gonna be messy, sorry if there is some confusion.

"What you can get paid while playing game ?" Even if you're not streaming or a pro player, yes indeed now you can.
This games are based on Web3.0 aka metaverse in interaction with crypto and blockchain.
All the mentionned games in the title are NFT games (Non Fongible Tokken) meaning there are unique and no other same exist. So it's like a collection, no one except you own it. This notion of OWNING is very important.
Let's make an example in regular game : WoW, Fortinite, Overwatch, PUBG, CS, LoL and so on... On all of this game you play with skins, weapons, heroes, comestics, pets, which you've sometimes bought via in game money putting real money to convert it into the money of the game. But your account belong to you yes, but not completly if the company of the game (Blizzard, Epic, Riot) decide to withdraw a skin, weapons, pets or whatever you can't do anything about it. Because even if you own it, you own it on server ruled by a company who can choose to do as it wish as the ruler. This is call Centralisation when one entities decide what is possible or not.

Hence the point of NFT is Decentralisation aka DeFi (Decentralised Finance), you own it completly, you own a piece of the games which cannot be takken from you unless you choose to sell it.
"Yeah ok bro but why does it matter to me ? I play the game I like" Yeah but you do not decide on anything on it and that is fine as long as you're okay with it.
On DeFi games, you can own a tokken which bring you governance decision on what should be done or not and with the other users of the games which as well own tokken you choose the future, destination, roadmap of the game.
Every project on crypto has a WHITE PAPER (except scam) where everything about the project is explained if you wanna dive into it deeper to know what you're getting into.

So in these games you can own items, lands, pets, skill and so on. Where you got the privilege to speficaly own it and thus manage it the way you want. Sound complex to understand I know, I'm not very clear sorry.

For example on Axies Infinity you need 3 Axies to start the game which you must bought in the marketplace from the players not the company because they own these Axies (little monsters) as NFT. They've got the KEYS to use or sell it.
In game you own SLP a crypto which allow you to breed your axies to make a new one (you need some AXS as well to breed) for playing with it reselling it for money, your decision, your choice.
You can choose to resell the SLP you earn by playing the game 1SLP(Sweet Love Potion) is fluctuating around 0.15 to 0.29€ it might go lower of higher, welcome to crypto hahaha ^^.
You can earn 150SLP or 200SLP each day if you're good at it. Do the math 150SLP x 0.21€ (the current price 30/07/21) = 31.5€ made in one day (I'm not very good at the game and manage to do it between 2 to 3hours) by playing a game sound to good to be true right ? Yet it is, you're not dreaming or reading it wrong. But remember to get started you need to get started by buying 3 Axies from players. The current price is 0.1 ETH (Ethereum) for the lowest one but the price is climbing. So 0.1 ETH x 3 = 0.3 ETH needed to get started if you've got the money. If not they're still the possibility to play by becoming a schoolar, meaning someone lend you his axies and you play instead of him and both share the revenue made with the SLP earned.

On this link you can check the price for ETH (Ethereum) and do your math https://coinmarketcap.com/

If you want to start on Axies Infinty, below is what to do, be serious, don't joke around, no one will be able to help you if you make any mistake !

"Yeah ok bro sound cool, but how the fuck do I buy this ETH or whatever ?" You need to make an account on crypto exchange such as Binance, Kraken, Coinbase and so on.
Or you can get it from a DEX (Decentrilised Exchange aka Uniswap on ETH network, Pancakeswap on the BSC network, or Quickswap on Matic, don't know well enough about DOT, SOL blockchain) but this is already hard enough to explain, let's not add to many things.

Once you've made an account do a deposit from your bank to the exchange and you're ready to go an buy ETH. After you've got your ETH you need to withdraw it from the exchange but to where ?? To your personal private wallet where you own your keys aka code to your crypto. Metamask is the reference as of now not the best thing, but a tool that does it job. Metamask is chrome, firefox extension that you need to add to your browser. And then create an account.
Don't joke around with your seed phrase don't share it to anyone this your password / key to your money. If you share it your money will get stolen, pictures forbidden, nothing on drive, or internet write it on paper and hide it. Metamask is hot wallet, not the safest one if you want the safest you will need a cold wallet such as Ledger or Trevor.

Brief recap, so far you've made an account on an exchange, did deposit, bought some ETH, made a private wallet.
After that check your ADDRESS of your private wallet, once you find it copy it into the exchange to withdraw your ETH. You MUST always verify is the address you've entered is the correct one if there is one wrong character, boom your money is lost an no one will be able to help you recover it since you send to the void or an other private wallet but not yours. There is no way to cancel it once you've send it so be very carefull with it.

Now you've got your ETH on your private wallet and you're getting closer to buying your Axies to play the game. Since the update Axies Infinity made it's own sidechain where you need to use the "Ronin wallet" same as metamask, this is a private wallet. Write your seed phrase, once again don't joke around do it carefully don't make any mistakes while writing it and don't share it.
So now use the bridge from the Ronin Wallet via Axies Infinity website to transfer your ETH from Metamask to Ronin. Same thing before sending it, check the is the address you're sending your ETH is the correct one.
And there you are last step is to buy the 3 Axies from the marketplace aka players reselling their NFT call in this game as Axies. Once done download the app connect your account via Ronin wallet to Mavis launcher to start the game. AAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNDDDDDDD you're in !!! The only left is to learn how to play the game.
Congratulations on joining us on the metaverse !!!!

If you find this meaningfull or helpful, I might explain how some other NFT / DeFi games works but as of now I need to go back and farm my SLP.
SEE YA'LL INTO THE METAVERSE LIL' FELLAS
