Investment in Blockchain Games (Q4 2022 → Q1 2023)
| Quarter | Investment (USD) | Investment (Bn USD) | % Quarter‑over‑Quarter Change | |---------|------------------|----------------------|--------------------------------| | Q4 2022 | ≈ $654.5 million | ≈ 0.655 Bn | – | | Q1 2023 | $739 million | 0.739 Bn | +12.95 % |
How the numbers were derived
The report states that Q1 2023 saw a 12.95 % increase over the previous quarter and that the Q1 2023 total was $739 M. To back‑calculate the Q4 2022 figure:
\[ \text{Q4 2022 Investment} = \frac{\text{Q1 2023 Investment}}{1 + 0.1295} = \frac{739\text{ M}}{1.1295} \approx 654.5\text{ M} \]
Converting to billions (1 Bn = 1,000 M):
\[ 654.5\text{ M} \approx 0.655\text{ Bn} \qquad 739\text{ M} = 0.739\text{ Bn} \]
Key take‑away
Q1 2023 investment in blockchain gaming and metaverse projects reached $739 M (0.739 Bn), marking a robust 12.95 % quarter‑over‑quarter growth from the ≈ $654.5 M (0.655 Bn) invested in Q4 2022. This upward trajectory underscores the accelerating capital interest in the blockchain gaming sector.
