 While <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="investment" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/investment.html">investment</a>s in the space show that stakeholders still recognize the potential in the blockchain <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="gaming" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/gaming.html">gaming</a> space, the amount invested into Web3 <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="gaming" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/gaming.html">gaming</a> this year is a lot lower compared to last year. DappRadar analysts highlighted that the amount invested this year is only “30% of last year’s fundraising activity.”
 In addition, compared to the third quarter of 2022, which drew $1.2 billion in investments in blockchain gaming, the third quarter of 2023 recorded about 50% less in the amount invested. This means that while there are still funds coming into the space, it has gotten significantly lower compared to the previous year.&nbsp;
