Atlas Reality filed 1 patent in H1 2026, covering Monetization (1).
The filing describes a system for applying cryptographic assets similar to NFTs to video game progression, enabling players to own and retain in-game items. This approach allows items to persist even after game servers are shut down.
On the Monetization side, 1 patent takes aim at a long-standing tension between blockchain ownership and how games traditionally handle paid content. The filing describes a system where cryptographic assets, functioning similarly to NFTs, are tied directly to in-game progression rather than serving as standalone collectibles. Players would be able to hold onto those items even if the game's servers go offline, something conventional purchases through content or in-app payment systems cannot guarantee. The approach layers blockchain ownership on top of familiar Monetization structures, creating a hybrid model where the two coexist within the same game system.
