Over 150,000 viewers witnessed! Runesoul ignites the industry, GameFi 4.0 and SocialGameFi become the focus of the Hong Kong summit.
With only one day left until the highly anticipated "Web3 Leaders Summit," the online AMA "Talking Web3 Top 100 KOL Special" hosted by one of its main organizers, Runesoul, was successfully held on July 27, with the total number of viewers across all platforms, including Binance, exceeding 150,000, igniting the entire Web3 community. This AMA not only released significant information about the summit in advance but also, through an in-depth interpretation of GameFi 4.0 and Social GameFi, clearly announced to the market: a disruptive industry revolution is imminent.
GameFi 4.0: Breaking the Industry Consensus of the 'Death Spiral'
During the AMA, Sky, the representative of the Runesoul Chinese community, deeply analyzed the current dilemmas of the GameFi industry. He pointed out that the "Play-to-Earn" core of the GameFi 1.0 era has exposed fundamental bottlenecks of a fragile economic model and lack of gameplay, leading to the "death spiral" becoming a common phenomenon, and the entire industry urgently needs to evolve.
As a solution, Runesoul officially defined the three core pillars of "GameFi 4.0" in this AMA:
High-quality gameplay: Returning to the essence of what makes games "fun", which is fundamental for attracting and retaining users.
Sustainable economic model: Build a robust framework that ensures long-term ecological prosperity.
True digital ownership and community governance: returning rights to players, thereby consolidating the soul of consensus.
This new concept has quickly gained widespread recognition within the community, being seen as an inevitable path to breaking the current deadlock and leading the industry towards maturity.
SocialGameFi: How does Runesoul monetize "social" assets?
If GameFi 4.0 is the blueprint for the future, then "SocialGameFi" is the core engine to realize this blueprint. Sky emphasized during the AMA that the biggest differentiating advantage of Runesoul is that it no longer sees social interaction as an accessory, but rather innovatively transforms the "social relationships" themselves into "assets" and "revenue."
Specifically, Runesoul will achieve this revolutionary concept through three major directions:
Guild Economy: The guild will operate as an independent economic entity, and the results of team collaboration (such as rare NFTs or token rewards) will directly benefit every member.
Social Influence Mining: A cutting-edge concept where players' reputation, credibility, and other "social capital" within the community will be quantified, potentially impacting their economic returns in the game.
Team collaboration benefits: Top game rewards must be achieved through seamless teamwork, which mechanismically affirms the economic value of "successful social collaboration."
Sky concluded: "In Runesoul, your friends, your guild, and your reputation are no longer virtual relationships, but rather a part of your real, rewarding 'on-chain assets.'" This statement perfectly underscores the core concept of "Play to Social."
Sustainable Economy: Unveiling the Runesoul Dual Token Model
In response to the economic model issues that the community is most concerned about, Sky has also provided a detailed explanation. The core design concept of the Runesoul economic model is "isolation" and "circulation."
RST is likened to a "coin", primarily responsible for the daily economic cycle within the game, with its supply and demand being precisely regulated to ensure a stable player experience.
$RG and $RUC are likened to the "stocks" and "dividends" of the entire ecosystem, deeply tied to advanced gameplay, community governance, and long-term value, serving the deep contributors to the ecosystem.
The most critical aspect is the multi-layered, systematic deflation and destruction mechanism that runs through all tokens, which will ensure that the value of the tokens is positively correlated with the prosperity of the ecosystem, fundamentally breaking the "mine-sell-withdraw" death spiral.
Industry Barometer: Assessing the Value of the Hong Kong Summit from the Popularity of AMA
This AMA with over 150,000 people online is undoubtedly the best proof of market sentiment. It indicates that the "Web3 Leaders Summit" to be held on July 29 in Hong Kong will not just be an industry conference. As Sky mentioned in the AMA, the arrival of top institutions such as a16z and Sequoia Capital marks a "two-way rush" from the entire industry towards the new direction of "SocialGameFi".
As the summit enters its final countdown, Runesoul's final slogan "The Myth of Ten Thousand Times is About to Set Sail" has resonated throughout the community. This grand event, co-hosted by Runesoul, IGC, IGT, AIFortuna, and Fei Xiao Hao, will become the focus of global attention, witnessing the true dawn of the GameFi 4.0 new era.
