Solana Foundation President Lily Liu: Blockchain Gaming is Dead and Won't Return

Odaily News



Solana Foundation President Lily Liu posted on X, stating that "gaming on the blockchain is not coming back," and declared that blockchain gaming is dead. Liu's comments were prompted by a Polymarket post earlier this week, which claimed that Mark Zuckerberg's Meta is abandoning its metaverse vision after investing $80 billion. The report noted that while Meta's vision does not explicitly include blockchain or crypto assets, its strategy shares similarities with various blockchain-based web3 gaming concepts. The report mentioned that blockchain gaming projects like Star Atlas and Stepn are built on Solana; meanwhile, Mythical Games is still advancing mobile games for the FIFA and Pudgy Penguins brands, and Gunzilla Games' shooter Off the Grid makes on-chain interactions optional.
