About Yield Guild Games

Yield Guild Games (YGG) is a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) that acquires NFT assets from blockchain games and lends them to players, sharing the yield. YGG invests in in-game NFTs like Axie Infinity land and characters, then scholarships players from developing countries who can't afford the upfront costs. The YGG token governs the DAO treasury and determines which games and assets to invest in. At its peak in 2021, YGG had over 4,500 scholars in the Philippines earning income through Axie Infinity, pioneering the play-to-earn economic model.
