## **The Problem With Web3 Gaming**

Konvoy, the VC company that has invested in web3 gaming projects like Sky Mavis and Ready Player Me, dropped a piece outlining some of the problems with crypto gaming.

\
Here's what we learned:

\
**1/ Growth has been slow.**

\
The unique active wallets have grown only 21% since Q3 2021.

\
This is a little underwhelming, considering that blockchain gaming has attracted a ton of talent and investment ($3.4 billion in 2022.)

\
The current active wallets are 912k which is not a lot given that there are 3 billion gamers online.

\
But Konvoy points out that blockchain gaming as a concept is only 18 months old, so it's still early.

\
**2/ The web3 gaming content is underwhelming.**

\
Without solid gameplay, nobody would start playing blockchain games regardless of the tech.

\
Given the talent pool in web3 gaming, Konvoy is optimistic that we will see successful web3 titles in the coming years.

\
**3/ All infrastructural projects share the same vision.**

\
All projects want to be the "Steam of Web3."

\
So they are solving problems for users that don't really exist yet because web3 gaming doesn't have the scale.
