I remember staring at the screen, watching people play games. It was enjoyable and fun but that was all it was. I was just one of the millions of fans, contributing my attention while holding no ownership, no value and holding no real impact within the ecosystem.
eSports started as small competitive gaming in local cafes and online lobbies with players showing off their love for the game competing for pride, bragging rights and to show off their skills.
Today, eSports is a massive industry with professional teams, major sponsors and millions of viewers worldwide. You can now build a full-time career around gaming, but this growth has left loyal fans distanced and lost among the millions, unable to meaningfully participate in the value they help create.
