The impact of this partnership between Aethir and Magic Eden
NFTs are considered fundamental to blockchain gaming. As in, they support gaming mechanics and in-game economies by tokenizing items like assets, characters, abilities, avatars, equipment, and more. All of this is done with NFTs in Web3 games.
At the same time, the GPU requirements for videogames are increasing. For instance, AAA games are moving towards using advanced technologies like VR/AR and ray tracing for better graphics. In fact, we are reaching a point where it’s becoming difficult to differentiate between real footage and photo-realistic game footage.

All of this requires extensive GPU power for real-time computations. The revenue of gaming consoles and equipment all over the world is already increasing according to a Statista report.
Aethir is aiming to support such developments in Web3 games by providing GPU cloud computing infrastructure to studios who want to leverage the power of blockchain in video games. Of course, there’s still a long way to go.
Big studios are slowly starting to become interested in incorporating Web3 elements in their games, and partnerships like these are bound to improve accessibility of GPUs for new gaming studios in Web3 that lack resources.
