Can blockchain and gaming exist in the same space?

Phil Ingram, CEO of Lepricon

This is the question I pose to the new CEO of Lepricon Phil Ingram, can blockchain and gaming exist in the same space? Lepricon is celebrating its first birthday and Ingram takes on the CEO mantle with a hill to climb.

“We’ve achieved a lot in the first year but now we need to tackle the elephant in the room – if gaming is going to be the first killer to on ramp people for mass adoption, then we have to make blockchain gaming more like video gaming,” says Ingram.

“Blockchain is all about owning assets and that they can’t be taken away from you unless you leave your private keys at a bus stop. This is the point that enables a subtle shift from publisher first economies to player first.”

Ingram makes a distinction between Play2Earn (P2E) and blockchain gaming. It’s not the same according to him.
