Xsolla President Chris Hewish presented a forward-thinking approach to gaming commerce at Consensus Miami 2026, emphasizing the potential of Web3 to transform player engagement. He envisions a more equitable economic model where players receive direct compensation from gaming companies, shifting transactions onto blockchain technology. This approach enables genuine data ownership and rewards based on real participation, offering a transparent and targeted alternative to traditional user acquisition strategies.
With nearly two billion gamers already connected through Xsolla’s platform, the company is well-positioned to facilitate the evolution of a decentralized gaming economy. By leveraging blockchain, Xsolla aims to create an ecosystem where both creators and players benefit from increased fairness and direct interaction, potentially onboarding the next billion users into the Web3 space through gaming.
