YIELD GUILD GAMES — PLAY THAT PAYS, WHEN IT’S BUILT WITH CARE
Yield Guild Games turned play into possibility by pooling capital to buy in-game NFTs, mentoring players, and running scholarship programs so people can earn without the upfront cost. When it works, it’s a generosity engine: treasuries buy assets, scholars play and share rewards, and the loop funds more opportunity. But the model’s fragile edges matter — game crashes, token volatility, weak custody, or vague scholarship terms can turn hope into hardship — so transparency, audits, clear contracts, diversified treasuries, and affordable cash-out rails are essential. With careful governance and real-world supports, YGG can be more than a trend: it can be a pathway from play to dignity.
