In little over a year, the concept of ‘X-to-Earn’ gained a strong foothold in the cryptocurrency and Web3 space, and has already evolved into numerous different incarnations.

Play-to-Earn (P2E), Move-to-Earn (M2E) and Watch-to-Earn (W2E) are just some of the ideas blockchain developers have come up with to incentivize the use of their products while at the same time rewarding the end user for their participation.

Yet of the three ways to earn cryptocurrency mentioned above, some have shown more likelihood for staying power than others, and each has their own unique quirks, features and potential shortcomings.

Play-to-Earn

Because of the in-built financial apparatus native to NFT technology, blockchain games have emerged as a way to onboard new users to the Web3 space while also compensating them for their time and attention.

These games typically see players earn cryptocurrency rewards for playing and winning against either the AI or other players. In-game items such as weapons, armor and personal avatars can often be owned outright by the player and then traded on the open market.

P2E’s popularity can be seen in the thousands of games that are currently live in the blockchain gaming space right now, but very few have succeeded in creating immersive gameplay. The vast majority of P2E games involve relatively little gameplay, and instead see players engaged in simple one-click routines that have more in common with yield farming than actual gaming.

P2E projects like Soccer Crypto allow users to earn rewards from activities such as playing with AI matches in the ability to take part in 12 matches at a time or participating in tournament matches. Users are encouraged to make the most money possible while playing thanks to the straightforward gameplay and a variety of settings.

Move-to-Earn

On the surface, Move-to-Earn would appear to be a noble effort at stoking engagement in the Web3 space by incentivizing users to engage in physical activities to earn cryptocurrency rewards.

What’s more, just like a new gym membership in the first week of January, the initial excitement of M2E apps often fails to be sustained. Expecting internet users to don their running shoes for any meaningful amount of time may just be asking too much in the long run.

Watch-to-Earn

Contrasting with the Move-to-Earn concept, the Watch-to-Earn sector doesn’t make undue physical demands of users but instead looks to reward them for something that most internet users do every day.

In the past few years, video content has emerged as the main communicative medium on the internet, but until now, the only people to be included in its revenue model are content creators and platform owners.

W2E also benefits content creators themselves, who can generate additional earnings on top of their YouTube ad revenue by fostering greater engagement with fans.

The ‘X-to-Earn’ space in the cryptosphere continues to grow, and we’ll no doubt see yet more iterations of the concept emerge in the coming years.
