According to a report published by the global dapp store platform, Dappradar, blockchain games barely felt the impact of the recent FTX collapse and the crypto market carnage that followed. Dappradar’s Blockchain Games Report indicates that the number of daily unique active wallets (dUAWs) participating in blockchain games fell slightly to 800,875 UAWs in November, down from just over 900,000 UAWs registered over the past two months. Also, Dappradar says that blockchain games accounted for “a healthy 46% of all blockchain activity.”

Report: Blockchain Gaming Shrugs Off FTX Collapse With More Than 800,000 Daily Unique Active Wallets

A study published by Dappradar and shared with Bitcoin.com News shows that despite the recent FTX fallout, blockchain gaming has remained steadfast. Currently, a significant amount of decentralized apps (dapps) from dappradar.com’s top dapp list are blockchain games such as Alien Worlds, Splinterlands, Farmers World, Benji Bananas and Planet IX.

Dappradar’s report states that the most popular blockchain in terms of blockchain games was Wax, and the BNB chain was the second most popular blockchain. Wax averaged 344,284 daily UAWs, while the BNB blockchain averaged 171,269 dUAWs.

The BNB blockchain took a hit after the FTX collapse, as the number of average dUAWs dropped by 35% in November. Dappradar’s study says Solana took a much bigger hit as November gaming activity via Solana dropped 89.42%.

Solana’s dUAW statistics indicate that it fell to “2,326 daily UAWs, the lowest number it has recorded so far,” the Dappradar researcher noted. “The Wax-based Alien Worlds managed to grow its user base by an impressive 25% to emerge as the most played game of all, with 212,000 dUAWs,” the report details.

Splinterlands was the second most played blockchain game with 169,000 dUAWs, explains Dappradar. “​Upland, the AR-mobile Estate play, continues to be on a downward trend in activity, reaching 31,595 dUAW in October,” Thursday’s report highlights.

“The mobile game Trickshot Blitz had an astonishing 70% increase in activity month over month. The casual game on the Flow blockchain reached 23,086 dUAW. The report also shows that interest in Axie Infinity continues to decline. The report states:

Axie Infinity continues its downward trend: in October they averaged 19,434 dUAW, down 21% from September. Nevertheless, they announced the release of Axie Infinity: Raylights, their first third-party product that uses existing Axie NFTs in a new way.
