Blockchain game pitches are flooding into game VCs

Blockchain game pitches are flooding the inboxes of investors. That comes as no surprise, but the scale of the change in gaming entrepreneurship is pretty stunning considering a year ago such pitches were almost nonexistent.

It was perhaps no surprise to see blockchain-related game companies receive a third of all game startup funding — with 128 companies receiving $1.2 billion — in the first quarter, according to investment bank Drake Star Partners.
