Interest in crypto video games as an instrument of choice to overcome economic crises has increased exponentially in various Latin American territories, driving the increase of several projects that seek to attack this scourge.
On December 7, Crypto Gaming United (CGU), an idea that is described as "the largest league of games Play to Earn (p2e)", made it known that they were helping several Cubans to join the crypto-gaming industry. through scholarships from Axie Infinity.
According to the league report, the growth in the interest of Cubans who wish to enter this industry has been growing exponentially in the territory, increasing monthly by well over 500%.
As a result, CGU increased the proportion of Axie Infinity scholarships awarded to Cubans by well over 300% per month to replace their hasty demand.
The Cuban economy was one of the hardest hit in the world during the years due to the economic blockade imposed by the US, however, this has caused the adoption of cryptocurrencies and projects associated with them to increase considerably.
Crypto Gaming United tiene más de 5.800 jugadores
While the number of 5,800 scholarship players worldwide may sound a bit small compared to other monumental Axie Infinity academies, it should be noted that CGU is only 3 months old.
This increase is due in important part to the fact that CGU has a fundamental financing from monumental allies in the technology sector such as: LaboxX, TimeX, SwitchMaven, MHCDF, Pacifica Solutions, among others.
In addition, Crypto Gaming United has its own token so that all those who want to favor the world society of p2e players, can do so through its CGU token, which after a month of being launched already manages a market cap of almost a a million dollars.
Los criptojuegos son una opción económica en América Latina
Sergei Sergienko, co-founder of CGU, mentioned that Blockchain as displacement has continually tried to bring economic decentralization to individuals by offering them a totally new possibility that was previously not allowed by classical financial systems.
In addition, he referred to Cuba as a territory that over the years was "oppressed by the regime," so this new choice that crypto-games give can help the Cuban people to win extra money that is not controlled. For the state:
"Hablando de Cuba, en las últimas dos generaciones, fueron continuamente oprimidos por el sistema. Y de repente, tienen la posibilidad de lograr algo por sí mismos en lugar de ser controlados por el estado. Es bastante glorioso, y mi voz comienza a temblar cada vez que hablo de ello. Como es realmente un paso impresionante hacia las libertades individuales, que la blockchain y la perspectiva de Satoshi nos trajeron en 2009 ".
Axie Infinity was the exclusive crypto game until then to preserve a sustainable economy, which allowed many people to obtain monthly income better than $ 300, than in territories such as Venezuela where the minimum wage is 1.5 dollars according to the Dollar BCV (Central Bank of Venezuela) are of enormous help.
