Thinking about it, I want to pick some non-sensitive topics to discuss. During the EOS era, what pushed EOS forward were Ponzi schemes and gambling games. I won't talk about Ponzi schemes, but many predecessors of PlusToken started from EOS. As for gambling games, TRX copied them for a long time. In that era, many people were already researching "games" + "blockchain."

As a professional in the gaming industry, I had the fortune to participate in many EOS chain games (not gambling games) design. Due to the limitations at that time, we designed a method in 2018 that calculated on the client side and then recorded the results on-chain. This method is still used by many GameFi projects today.

I might be getting off-topic, but what I want to say is that at the beginning of the internet, many people also used the nature of the internet to set up gambling and pornography. This is hard to avoid in human evolution, as the essence is all about mating rights, and the (partial) essence of gambling is also an extension of mating rights.

Many people might think that the greatest creation of blockchain is not Bitcoin, but USDT. Although Bitcoin was used as a trading tool before Silk Road, it was actually USDT that truly linked the gray market with blockchain. After all, USDT has less volatility, simpler redemption, and higher opacity, solving a significant problem in the transfer of funds in the gray market.

By the way, in 2022, Tether's CEO mentioned that about half of USDT is used in the cryptocurrency field.

Returning to the question itself, the answer is both yes and no. Chain games are not suitable for the gray market, or rather, chain games are not applicable to gambling. Why? Because blockchain cannot generate true random numbers; it can only generate pseudo-random numbers. Therefore, true gambling giants have no reason to delve deeply into this field, at least with the current technology, it is not sufficient for them to enter.

For those who have doubts about this, you can first check out G2E (Global Gaming Expo). Currently, saying that blockchain is a casino is actually incorrect because the essence of a casino is House Advantage, which is about 2.5%. Cryptocurrency or blockchain involves distribution and insider mechanisms, and there is still some distance from being a casino.
