"Diǎomáo Web3 GameFi is used to grab Airdrop. Once the tokens are released, it becomes a thing of the past with no one playing."
To be honest, I always thought so before, until the coin name $ATH piqued my interest and I looked up relevant information.
➣ What is Aethir
- The Aethir team is also talented. Setting the ticker as $ATH leaves others no way out. With a financing of $9 million, it skyrocketed to a current market value of only $2.7 billion after 24 years of TGE.
➣ How does Aethir do it and what is the relationship with GameFi
1️⃣ The game mode of "play first, download later"
- Web3 games are known for their high barriers to entry and lag delays. There have been cases of step-by-step interaction before, and often the deployment of the game stumps many players. Only professional Airdrop studios can barely cope.
- The emergence of Aethir has changed this situation. Simply put, users can instantly play games through the cloud without downloading, which not only increases game engagement, but also significantly reduces user acquisition costs.
2️⃣Cross-device seamless experience
- Aethir supports Web browser playback on PCs, mobile phones, smart TVs, and other devices, eliminating the reliance on high-end hardware, allowing more players to easily enter the gaming world
- In theory, a device that can illuminate and connect to the internet can achieve the minimum threshold of Aethir deployment, as all rendering calculations are done in the cloud.
3️⃣ Platform commission may become history
- Typically, platforms extract 30% of revenue, while Aethir returns this portion of profits to game studios, enhancing developers' income capabilities.
- Compared to the high outbound traffic fees of traditional cloud computing, Aethir adopts a pay-as-you-go billing model, allowing developers to flexibly adjust resources according to actual needs and reduce operational costs
4️⃣ Efficiently Utilize Idle GPU
- By tokenizing GPU, Aethir integrates idle computing power globally to provide low-cost, high-quality streaming services, achieving optimal resource allocation.
- Therefore, Aethir can be understood not only as the Infra of the GameFi track, but also as a DePIN mine where GPUs can be deployed to generate revenue.
➣ What incremental interest might Aethir's future attract
1️⃣ Web3 Game Studio
- Deploy and distribute games quickly on decentralized networks, reaching players worldwide
2️⃣ Mobile game developers
- Lower hardware barriers and increase the accessibility of games in emerging markets through cloud technology
3️⃣ Long-term operation type games (such as MMO, SLG)
- Cloud gaming mode reduces player loss caused by device limitations and extends the game lifecycle
4️⃣ AI-driven interactive games
- Aethir's GPU computing power supports AI games and promotes innovative interactive experiences
