The research company Delphi Digital has published a report covering the current state of the blockchain gaming applications (DApps) market. In 2023, the Optimism and Starknet platforms emerged as leading networks for the development and launch of gaming projects. According to Delphi Digital's forecasts, the total capitalization of gaming DApps over the past 12 months has fluctuated between $4 and $7 billion, which is 86% less compared to 2022.

Despite the decrease in capitalization, the infrastructure for gaming DApps continues to expand, with about 1.2 million active wallets conducting from 15 to 25 million transactions daily. Blockchain games are most popular among users from Nigeria, Pakistan, the Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, Vietnam, Hong Kong, China, and the UAE.

In 2024, an increase in competition is expected between second-level blockchains (L2), aiming to become leaders in the gaming applications sector. Fortune Business Insights predicts that by 2030, the capitalization of gaming projects will reach $614 billion. Active investors in this area are funds from the USA and Canada.
