If you still think YGG is just a gaming organization, then you're wrong. It’s more like a digital revolution that emerged from the grassroots—allowing an ordinary player with only a broken phone and living in a small room to earn real money through their skills and passion. The beginning of this story is particularly simple: why should good equipment and profitable NFTs only be affordable for the wealthy?
From 'Unable to Play' to 'Earn Together': The Guild's Road to Counterattack
A few years ago, when blockchain games first became popular, it was truly 'a playground for the rich'. An NFT could easily cost tens of thousands of dollars, and ordinary people couldn’t even touch the entry ticket. At that time, many people complained: is this even a game? It’s clearly asset speculation!
But the founders of YGG thought: what if we pooled money to buy NFTs and then rented them to people who can play but don't have money? Players earn money and then share it with the guild—doesn't that lower the barrier to entry? With such a simple idea, they created a 'scholarship' model that forcibly pulled ordinary players from places like the Philippines, Indonesia, and Brazil into the Web3 economy.
Let me tell you, the warmest part of this matter is not the cool technology, but the real human stories. There are young people from rural areas in the Philippines who earn three times more than local workers by renting the guild's NFTs to play games; there are single mothers who take care of their children at night and earn a living during the day through gaming. These stories are passed around in the community, and YGG has slowly changed—it no longer feels like a company but more like a family banding together for warmth.
Not just 'renting accounts': YGG's theory of evolution.
Of course, if YGG only knew how to 'rent accounts,' it would have been crushed long ago. Its intelligence lies in: helping grassroots players make money while simultaneously upgrading its technical framework.
YGG today is no longer just a 'gaming guild.' It has developed a complete ecosystem:
SubDAOs: Just like branches in different regions, focusing specifically on certain games or areas, for example, Filipino players focusing on Axie, Brazilian players specializing in FPS. This localization is deeper, and players can manage themselves.
Treasury system: All NFTs and tokens are collectively owned by the guild, with members voting on how to utilize them—this is equivalent to players acting as their own 'fund managers.'
YGG tokens: Not only can they be traded, but they also represent voting power. The more tokens one holds, the greater their voting rights on game investments and profit-sharing rules.
To put it bluntly, YGG is doing something very forward-thinking: it has turned game assets into 'digital real estate,' where players are no longer just cash cows but co-owners.
Challenges are always present, but the moat is deep enough.
However, this path is not easy. The updates in blockchain gaming happen faster than flipping a book; the hot game today might cool down tomorrow; NFT prices follow the roller coaster of cryptocurrencies, with earning today and losing tomorrow being the norm. YGG's greatest pressure is: how to ensure players make stable profits?
So you see their strategy has changed over the past two years—they are no longer frantically chasing after 'gold farming masterpieces' but are instead investing in virtual land, funding gaming studios, and even participating in game design. This move is quite clever: short-term popularity is unreliable, but 'land' in the digital world and quality IP are always valuable.
But to be fair, YGG's deepest moat is actually those tens of thousands of real player stories. No matter how good your technology or how brilliant your business model is, you cannot replicate that genuine connection of 'this is how my family makes a living.' This trust is the foundation for YGG to boldly claim, 'We are not a company; we are a community.'
Where is the future? When gaming meets 'common prosperity.'
YGG's ambitions have long surpassed merely 'making money through gaming.' It now resembles a decentralized investment platform, where the investments are all game assets. Players here are not just 'workers'; they are also shareholders, decision-makers, and co-builders of the ecosystem.
In the long run, if the metaverse truly is the next generation of the internet, then game assets are the 'prime real estate' within it. YGG is currently accumulating NFTs, hoarding virtual land, and nurturing player communities, all to secure their position in advance. When the big companies finally get Web3 games up and running, YGG will hold two hard currencies: a group of extremely loyal players and a bunch of market-tested assets.
The true significance of this has actually surpassed gaming. It probes the question: can wealth in the digital age be distributed more equitably? YGG's answer is very straightforward: yes, as long as we are willing to pool resources, set rules, and trust every serious individual.
YGG's story is still being written. It may not be perfect, but it points to a very practical path: technology should not just be about creating idols; it should learn to build bridges—allowing those sitting in small rooms to reach out to the future.
