A decentralised autonomous organisation (DAO) that invests in NFTs and virtual gaming assets across multiple play-to-earn blockchain games, renting these assets to players (scholars) who share their in-game earnings with the guild. Founded in 2020, Yield Guild Games pioneered the scholarship model in the Philippines during the Axie Infinity boom, enabling players without capital to participate in play-to-earn gaming. The YGG token provides governance rights and exposure to the guild's portfolio of gaming assets.
Example
“Yield Guild Games onboarded 5,000 new scholars for its latest partner game, providing each with the NFT characters needed to start earning in-game tokens.”
