[QUOTE="Admin, post: 56699, member: 1"] At EVO 2022, PlayStation is asking players through a survey about what kind of NFTs they would be interested in purchasing. On Twitter, user snorlaxownz posted a screenshot of a survey they received from PlayStation asking, “Which of the following NFT/Digital Collectibles would you most be interested in purchasing?” The answers include EVO-branded collectibles, favorite music artists, favorite esports players and teams, PlayStation items, and favorite game characters. IGN confirmed the survey ourselves at EVO, suggesting at the very least PlayStation is gauging user interest for NFTs at the event. PlayStation previously addressed NFTs before. Last month, Sony launched a new [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/sony-introduces-new-loyalty-program-playstation-stars']PlayStation Stars loyalty program[/URL] that allowed players to earn digital collectibles such as figurines of its iconic characters. However, Sony [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/playstation-stars-rewards-definitely-not-nfts-sony-says']clarified that these digital collectibles in the program are not NFTs[/URL] as they do not utilize any blockchain technology. Niko Partners analyst Daniel Ahmad [URL='https://twitter.com/ZhugeEX/status/1555600355341238273']notes that this survey at EVO[/URL] isn’t related to the PlayStation Stars program and that the term “digital collectibles” is only just a term that is commonly used interchangeably with NFTs. The gaming industry has been vocal against NFTs.
