• Our constant market analysis and research

What Is Castle

You may be aware of the recently launched marketplace, but Castle is much more than this option. We are growing into an all-in-one ecosystem with a marketplace and an aggregator, decentralized rental and mortgage solutions, a launchpad, and DEX. Meanwhile, being a completely decentralized platform, we guarantee gamers complete security and transparency without complex integrations or approvals. To learn more about Castle, let's define its other vital characteristics.

Non-custodial

As a non-custodial platform with a marketplace and rental solutions, Castle does not store or access any users' funds. This approach significantly increases the platform's security. For instance, rented assets are kept in individual Safe Vaults accessible only to their owners. In other words, all the data is stored on-chain, and Castle serves as a technology provider that ensures direct transactions between borrowers and lenders or between sellers and buyers. Consequently, no third parties can steal assets, trace transactions, or change them.

Decentralized

Castle rentals and mortgages do not require integration on a dApp or game level. Thus, their features can be adapted to ongoing products that meet Castle's criteria.

Collateral-free

Castle rentals and mortgages are collateral-free. Meanwhile, the security of deals is guaranteed on a programmatic level and backed by our smart contracts.

Simple

Designed by gamers for gamers, the marketplace has a unique asset discovery system with detailed filters. As a result, users can find the needed NFT in a few clicks. 

Aggregator

Castle serves as a delivery agent that aggregates order books from internal marketplaces. Thus, it enables players to acquire multiple assets from different games in one payment. 

 

Prospects Of Blockchain Gaming

Analyzing the potential future of blockchain gaming, we figured out that the current market is full of similar simple projects inspired by popular games. However, with the development of technologies and the increasing complexity of users' needs, Next Gen games will reshape the industry, broaden its audience, and attract more resources. The thing is that the new projects, designed by gamers for gamers, will enable users to explore new unconventional plots, aesthetics, graphics, and genres. 

We believe Next Gen games will attract gamers from traditional Web2 gaming. Thus, we are going to be a link between Web2 players and Web3 games. We do not just build a Steam-like platform with all-inclusive content about games but seek to comfort players unfamiliar with the crypto industry and introduce them to Web3 gaming.

Importantly, we also see that the Play-to-Earn mode is turning into Pay-to-Play and Invest-to-Earn options. Currently, most Web 3 projects bring comparatively small income to most casual players. However, even the "unprofitable" games, such as Alien Worlds or Splinterlands, benefit because such casual players can be defined as "spenders", not as "earners", and don't choose games for profit. Instead, they focus on the fun side of playing, including meaningful gameplays and fancy graphics. 

Meanwhile, a well-designed economy is a must: a robust system encourages players to make transactions required to evolve in games. The more transactions are made, the higher the value of a game token. The higher the value, the more investors are interested in joining an ecosystem. Thus, the further strengthening of a game's economy and the growth of a token value are to follow.

 

Constant Market Research 

To design a fit product, we have analyzed the current market according to such critical criteria as the number of Web 3 players, distribution of assets, evaluation of projects, users' profit, strategies to earn, gameplays, and genres.

However, our research is not limited to users' needs only: we work to raise crypto awareness of Castle users and boost their understanding of GameFi and DeFi. For this, we will provide the most accurate and recent data for gamers and investors.

There are gaming portals that have information on earnings and minimum investments needed. We also follow this direction by developing an all-inclusive game catalog. However, considering that all such data is approximate due to fast changes in the costs of native tokens, gaming NFTs supplies, and demand dynamics, we want to improve it by analyzing and aggregating raw blockchain data.

Thus, we are specifically interested in collaborating with games that can enable Castle to keep our catalog up-to-date by constantly tracking their contracts and allocating resources.

Meanwhile, we will provide game projects with convenient tools to create and maintain their pages on Castle. This opportunity will help them to broaden their user base, attract the most engaged and loyal gamers, and convince investors of their potential.
