According to Robbie Ferguson, Immutable’s co-founder (@0xferg), the traditional model where gamers purchase in-game items without true ownership is becoming obsolete. Ferguson asserts that the shift toward blockchain-based NFTs will soon make true digital ownership standard, leading to major changes in how digital goods are traded and valued (source: Twitter, May 7, 2025). This trend is expected to boost demand for gaming-related crypto tokens and NFT platforms, providing new trading opportunities and liquidity for digital asset markets.
