Polyient Games has teamed up with automated esports tournament platform Community Gaming to launch a $100,000 tournament series as a way to introduce mainstream gamers to cryptocurrency and blockchain.

Polyient, the parent company of Polyient Games, has invested heavily in non-fungible tokens (NFTs), which use blockchain, a secure and transparent digital ledger, to verify one-of-a-kind items. NFTs can verify the authenticity and rarity of digital collectibles and in-game items. Polyient will draw attention to both mainstream esports games and blockchain games.
