I think there actually is a nugget of something there. Platform owners want to keep players on the platform and don't particularly care what they're playing.

I think there actually is a nugget of something there. Platform owners want to keep players on the platform and don't particularly care what they're playing. So Sony wants playstation players to give money to them but don't really care which game they're playing - and if Timmy is tired of Fortnite and is thinking of moving to Apex Legends on PS5 or Escape from Tarkov on PC, they would rather give a little and let Timmy bring a Fortnite shirt into Apex instead of losing him forever. But then I don't think "web3" has any use here, it's just a business decision "oh you own item X on fortnite and you're a ps5 player? well now you also own item Y in apex if you play it on ps5".
