Blockchain tech is here to stay, and 2023 is shaping up to be its biggest year

The year 2023 is going to be the greatest year for blockchain technology, which is obviously here to stay. As a result of the Ethereum merger and the broad use of NFTs in a variety of industries, blockchain is no longer a niche issue but rather a common and subtly disruptive technology.

In 2023, I think we should pay closer attention to a few so-called blockchain trends, such as those in gaming, art, and culture.

The gaming industry has got to be one of blockchain technology's major growth sectors in 2023. The broader games industry has toyed with the idea of incorporating blockchain into current game monetization structures for a number of years, most notably in the form of NFTs.

I enjoy playing several different games, including Axie, Gods Unchained, Splinterlands, etc.

In 2021, when NFTs first became popular, many of the newsworthy articles concerned their varied uses in the fields of communication, entertainment, and the arts.

Take a look at projects like ReelStar for example of how NFTs may help artists access a far wider and more tech-savvy audience while simultaneously making it incredibly simple for them to track resales and automatically collect royalties.

Global media producers have been attempting to come up with a workable way to monetize their works in the digital age for the past 20 years, but thanks to blockchain technology, we now have all these options.

We may anticipate that these tendencies will persist in 2023 as producers and collectors continue to assess the true worth of digital goods, which have long slipped under the funding community's notice due to the requirement of their medium.
