If you still think YGG is just a 'gold farming organization,' then your understanding is at least two years behind.
Recently, I delved into the architecture of YGG and discovered an astonishing fact: what YGG is building could be a cross-game 'digital economy operating system.' It does far more than just help players earn money; it is redefining the production relationships in virtual worlds.
Today, let's put aside the superficial 'earning money by playing games' and see what YGG is actually doing at its core.
First layer: turning game equipment into 'production tools'
What is traditional game equipment?
A sword, a piece of armor, a skin - once used, they are worthless, and when you leave the game, they have no value.
What is YGG doing?
Transforming game equipment into 'on-chain production tools':
Ownable: Equipment is NFTs, forever belonging to you.
Rentable: Can be rented to others, earning rental income.
Combinable: Different equipment can create different strategies.
Transferable: May have interchangeable value across different games.
It's like turning a hoe into a tractor - not just an upgrade of tools, but a revolution in productivity.
Layer two: SubDAO is not a branch, it's an 'economic special zone'.
YGG's smartest design is its SubDAO system:
Philippines SubDAO.
Focusing on casual mobile games.
Localized training system.
Suitable for beginner players.
Brazil SubDAO.
Specializing in competitive games.
Professional in organizing competitions.
The community atmosphere is enthusiastic.
Hardcore MMO SubDAO.
Specializing in complex games.
In-depth strategy research.
Efficiency-first culture.
Each SubDAO is like a small 'digital economy':
Has its own treasury.
Has its own strategy.
Has its own community.
But sharing YGG's underlying infrastructure.
This is not centralized management, but federal cooperation.
Layer three: YGG is the 'central bank of games'.
Imagine this:
The equipment you earn in Game A.
Can be exchanged for startup funds in Game B.
At the same time, gain special permissions in Game C.
This is the cross-game liquidity network that YGG is building:
Asset routing system.
Monitoring economic data of various games.
Automatically allocating assets to the highest yielding places.
Like Gaode Map, telling you where to 'mine' the most profit right now.
Risk hedging mechanism.
Not putting all your eggs in one basket.
Multiple games are being laid out simultaneously.
If one game fails, others will compensate.
New game incubator.
Providing early players for new games.
Helping design economic models.
Reducing game cold start risks.
YGG Token: It is not a speculative asset, but 'economic fuel'.
$YGG token's real role is seriously underestimated:
Governance rights.
Voting to decide which new games to support.
Deciding asset allocation strategies.
Influencing the development direction of SubDAO.
Usage rights.
Access to advanced training courses.
Priority participation in new game testing.
Obtaining rights to lease scarce equipment.
Right to profits.
Sharing the growth dividends of the entire ecosystem.
Receiving profit sharing from SubDAO.
Participating in special task rewards.
It's not 'buy and wait for appreciation', but 'use it to gain value'.
Data: Proving that this system is operational.
Don’t look at the coin price, look at these real indicators:
Player data.
Over 100,000 players earn income through the system.
Average player retention time continues to grow.
Skill improvement curve is significant.
Economic data.
Managing assets worth tens of millions of dollars.
Cross-game asset flow is becoming increasingly frequent.
New game onboarding speed is accelerating.
Ecological data.
Developers actively seek cooperation.
Community-organized activities are increasing.
Players have transformed from 'participants' to 'builders'.
Why is it particularly important now?
In 2024, the gaming industry is experiencing a critical turning point:
Dilemmas of traditional games.
Players are merely consumers.
Equipment has no long-term value.
When the game shuts down, everything returns to zero.
Web3 gaming opportunities.
Players become stakeholders.
Assets truly belong to players.
The gaming ecosystem is sustainable.
But one link is missing: How to organize? How to coordinate? How to manage?
YGG fills this gap.
Challenge: This road is not easy to walk.
Technical complexity.
Cross-game asset interoperability is extremely difficult.
Economic model design requires deep experience.
System security requirements are extremely high.
Regulatory risks.
Global policies on 'game income' vary.
Tax and compliance issues are complex.
Competitive pressure.
Traditional gaming giants are beginning to awaken.
New competitors are emerging continuously.
User education.
It takes time for players to understand complex economic systems.
Future: If successful, what will YGG become?
Possibility one: The 'Amazon Web Services' of the gaming world.
Providing a full set of economic infrastructure for new games.
Including players, assets, liquidity, governance tools.
Possibility two: The 'New Oriental School' of digital talent.
Starting from game skill training.
Expanding to programming, design, operations, and other digital skills.
Becoming a talent cultivation base in the digital age.
Possibility three: The 'UN Development Programme' of the virtual world.
Helping underdeveloped areas escape poverty through digital skills.
Building a global digital collaboration network.
Promoting digital equity.
Regardless of the type, YGG is trying to answer a question: How should we organize production in the digital age?
Inspiration for ordinary people.
If you are also paying attention to this field:
As a player.
Don't just think about 'mining' anymore.
Think about what skills you are accumulating.
Establish your digital identity and reputation.
As a builder.
YGG ecosystem needs various talents.
From community management to economic design.
From technical development to education and training.
As an observer.
Pay attention to whether this experiment can succeed.
Understanding new organizational forms.
Thinking about the future of the digital economy.
Because in the future, the most important thing may not be what game you play, but in which digital economy you are.
Finally, let me say something from the heart.
In the crypto world, we've seen too much:
Projects that rely on hype to rise and end in zero.
Ecosystems with technology but no users, and users but no income.
Short-term excitement, long-term desolation narrative.
YGG has shown me a different possibility: rooted in real needs, serving real people, solving real problems.
It may not be perfect, but it is being built seriously.
And in an industry filled with short-termism, building seriously is a rare quality in itself.
Sometimes, it's not the coolest technology that changes the world, but the most practical systems.
What YGG is trying to build might be such a system.
