 <p class="is-style-lead">Colleen Sullivan, who is in charge of Brevan Howard Asset Management’s crypto-venture arm, recognizes the potential of <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="blockchain" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/blockchain.html">blockchain</a> technology in the <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="gaming" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/gaming.html">gaming</a> industry. However, she also acknowledges the current technological limitations. </p> 
 <p>In particular, she highlights concerns about the public ledger’s throughput, particularly in networks such as Solana, which can only process approximately 2,000 user transactions per second. This capacity, in her view, falls short of what is required to host high-quality gaming experiences.</p>

 <p>Despite internal and customer reservations, the sentiment was strong when crypto peaked in 2021. However, as the digital asset market declined, some, including Sonic the Hedgehog creators Sega, abandoned plans to incorporate <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="blockchain" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/blockchain.html">blockchain</a> into their <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="gaming" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/gaming.html">gaming</a> projects. </p> 
 <p>Horizon Blockchain Games received $40 million from Sullivan and Brevan Howard Digital in October 2022, but Sullivan cautioned that the technology’s maturation process to accommodate large-scale games would likely take several years. </p>
