The report stated:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe ease of onboarding new users to the world of NFTs by Reddit could be seen as one of the biggest events for Web3 this year.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Reddit\u2019s new digital collectible avatars are NFTs based on the Polygon network, but very little education or marketing material was released by Reddit referencing the blockchain technology behind the products.<\/p>\n<p>Reddit also avoided the term \u2018wallet\u2019 which DappRadar defined as a \u201cpotentially off-putting term.\u201d Instead, the social platform uses the phrase \u2018vault\u2019 to entice users into its new digital initiative.<\/p>\n<p>DappRadar\u2019s Head of Research, Pedro Herrera, exclusively told <em>CryptoSlate.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn these social platforms, you see a lot of resistance toward NFTs. So it was really exciting to see the way they approached this. They didn\u2019t mention the word NFTs, and they claim the process was really smooth as users didn\u2019t have to get out their MetaMask or set it up and so on.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The DappRadar report stated, \u201cReddit\u2019s accomplishments in this instance are impossible to overstate.\u201d Given the success, the blueprint could become a catalyst for web2 companies to move into web3 with a solid strategy to engage their audience, which may be non-native to crypto products and terminology.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The rise in popularity of Reddit NFTs has tied in with a general excitement in blockchain technology within the developer community. Amid the downturn in price action within crypto, the development and activity on-chain has never been higher.<\/p>\n<p>The report sourced data to confirm that \u201cthe deployment of smart contracts climbed by 40% compared to the first quarter of the year, with each month of the third quarter reaching a new all-time record.\u201d Another spike was also seen following the Ethereum Merge when there was a spike of 14% in smart contracts deployed to the chain.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAlmost 36% of all smart contracts ever published and confirmed on the blockchain were executed in 2022. That\u2019s a total of nearly 118,000 smart contracts compared to the over 323,700 contracts ever executed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Conversely, following the crypto crash of 2018, there was a 45% fall in smart contract installations. The juxtaposition of the data indicates that the current bear market is an entirely different beast from the ones that have gone before.<\/p>\n<p>Source: Alchemy<\/p>\n<p>Other aspects of blockchain development, such as web3 gaming, were also covered in the report. It highlighted issues in adopting web3 gaming, including a lack of awareness among traditional gamers and decreased Twitter mentions for web3 metaverse terms.<\/p>\n<p>Concerning web3 gaming, Herrera commented that<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is still a lot of work to be done when we think about gaming economies. There still needs to be a project that cracks the code in order to achieve long term sustainability instead of short term growth.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>However, Herrera is bullish on the future of gaming in web3 from projects which \u201chave a plan\u201d and are \u201cthinking long term.\u201d Games that are for people to \u201cplay for the sake of entertainment as opposed to farming a token\u201d are the ones he is the most excited about.<\/p>\n<p>The report also touched on the rise of women within the web3 space, with an increase of 6.16% compared to 2021. However, the split remains roughly 75\/25 in favor of men within the space. The U.S. still dominates the industry, followed by India, Indonesia, Russia, and Ukraine.<\/p>\n<p>DappRadar\u2019s report concluded that the industry appears to be \u201con an upward trend in terms of regulation,\u201d but that \u201cnew legislation and the enforcement of already existing regulations will most likely have a positive impact on the industry.\u201d DappRadar contended that regulation will \u201cgive more legitimacy to cryptocurrencies and foster their adoption.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The full report from DappRadar can be found in their research section and is available to all users from noon UTC on Oct. 28.<\/p>\n<h2>Get an Edge on the Crypto Market \ud83d\udc47<\/h2>\n<p>Become a member of CryptoSlate Edge and access our exclusive Discord community, more exclusive content and analysis.<\/p>\n<p>  <strong>On-chain analysis<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>  <strong>Price snapshots<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>  <strong>More context<\/strong><\/p>\n<p> Join now for $19\/month Explore all benefits<br \/>\n<br \/><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\namzn_assoc_placement = \"adunit0\";\r\namzn_assoc_tracking_id = \"totafreearti-20\";\r\namzn_assoc_ad_mode = \"search\";\r\namzn_assoc_ad_type = \"smart\";\r\namzn_assoc_marketplace = \"amazon\";\r\namzn_assoc_region = \"US\";\r\namzn_assoc_default_search_phrase = \"bitcoin\";\r\namzn_assoc_default_category = \"All\";\r\namzn_assoc_search_bar = \"false\";\r\namzn_assoc_title = \"\";\r\namzn_assoc_rows =\"1\";\r\n<\/script>\r\n<script src=\"\/\/z-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/onejs?MarketPlace=US\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/dappradar-deems-reddit-blueprint-for-nft-launches-one-of-the-biggest-events-for-web3-in-2022\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Reddit may have cracked the formula for onboarding new users into web3, according to a new report released by DappRadar on the behavior of the blockchain industry.
