The thread tweet talks about a new subdomain by GameStop that can be related to the marketplace.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Big Names Affecting the Market<\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">When big companies come to the blockchain world, it almost always results in more users coming to the platforms. They sometimes launch blockchain-based products that attract their users to spend money on the new system.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> New products always need cryptocurrencies to be able to serve customers. It results in more buying of a coin that ultimately increases the price. The host blockchain benefits from these decisions, too, because it sees an influx of users that may become attracted to other products on the network as well.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">GameStop is one of the biggest game companies in the world, with many products and a huge fan base. If companies like GameStop launch blockchain products, it can attract a considerable amount of users to the ecosystem. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The new prediction by \u201ccroissant\u201d on Twitter suggests that GameStop may be working on a previously canceled NFT marketplace. The news about this marketplace was published back in July, but there were no actual products since then. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">According to the tweets, the company has created a subdomain for NFTs and may be working on the project again. This project can be connected to the newly joined manager, Ryan Cohen, and big investments that increased GameStop\u2019s value to $1.3B. The long <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">threaded tweet<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> by \u201ccroissant\u201d details the plans.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">A massive surge of users are about to come to <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/search?q=%24ETH&amp;src=ctag&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">$ETH<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Why?<\/p>\n<p>The news of GameStop launching an NFT platform broke back in July, but after digging a little deeper I\u2019ve connected the dots to something even bigger<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ll detail this information in the thread below\u2026 \ud83e\udd50<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; \ud83d\udc68\u200d\ud83c\udf73.eth (@CroissantEth) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CroissantEth\/status\/1433195248348549125?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">September 1, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Part of it says:<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cIntegrating NFTs with GameStop would provide for an extremely useful application with unique benefits. It signifies the companies\u2019 deep dive into the blockchain &amp; their effort to go digital. NFTs are the perfect step, and $GME may onboard millions of users to the network this way.\u201d<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-40097\" src=\"https:\/\/crypto-economy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/blockchain-team.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"699\" height=\"250\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Although there is no actual announcement by GameStop about the NFT marketplace, the signs show that this company is considering this product seriously. The subdomain nft.gamestop.com says that they\u2019re building a team. It surely will be an NFT-focused team. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Besides, recent hires by this company are mostly focused on blockchain technology. If GameStop continues the project and launches an NFT marketplace on the Ethereum blockchain, we can see an influx of users to this platform. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">But it may change the plans, and their engineers may suggest other blockchains as well. In this scenario, the destination blockchain may receive huge attention from the market.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr>\n<div class=\"td_block_wrap tdb_single_content td_uid_54_61309b4b08744_rand td-pb-border-top td_block_template_1 td-post-content tagdiv-type\" data-td-block-uid=\"td_uid_54_61309b4b08744\">\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong><em>If you found this article interesting, here you can find more&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/crypto-economy.com\/cryptocurrencies\/ethereum-news\/\">Ethereum News<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new plan by GameStop may result in an influx of users coming to the Ethereum blockchain.
