Reshaping the NFT and Gaming Landscape in China
The world of video games — including highly competitive and lucrative e-sports — has experienced rapid growth over the past several years. Nowhere is this clearer than in China. More than 665 million gamers spent billions of dollars just last year. Mobile games led the charge with $32 billion in revenue, while e-sports raked in $20.8 billion. The demand for gaming is so high that e-sports spectators fill an increasing number of large, purpose-built stadiums. Investors recently pooled $900 million to build the Shanghai International New Cultural and Creative E-Sports Center, an arena that will host thousands.
Conflux has actively demonstrated its commitment to supporting the development of decentralized gaming. As a member of the Blockchain Gaming Alliance and the DeFi Gaming Coalition, we encourage the entrance of traditional game developers into the blockchain gaming space. We are also independently supporting blockchain gaming developers through our $2.4 billion CFX grants program.

What Everyone in Crypto Gets Wrong About China: A View From the West
Crypto markets have been roiled in recent months as China has appeared to clamp down on mining, exchanges, and other activity. Those watching from other countries — and indeed, from within China itself — have been feverishly trying to interpret Beijing’s actions. But this frenzy of prognostication almost invariably misreads the situation due to incorrect notions of what the goals of the Chinese government actually are.
China can seem like an enigma to outsiders, but the reality is the government’s actions are much less mystifying than they may seem at first glance. Its goal is self-preservation and the flourishing of its people; in fact, it views the two as mutually dependent.
These truths apply to the CCP’s approach to crypto as well. When we understand this, we can start to see the logic, and the human decisions, behind the superpower.
