About KGeN:

KGeN (Kratos Gamer Network) is building a multi-chain gamer network that aims to become the home of global gamer data, owned by gamers. At the heart of it is the revolutionary Proof of Gamer (P.O.G) Engine that allows gamers to build, own & monetise their reputation. This data framework allows game publishers to engage with precise gamer cohorts, engaging in deep value exchange through our product stack.

Our model is fundamentally different from the current P&E, P2E and the Guild models as the focus is not on extracting income from in-game economy. Instead, we aim to create a win-win situation. The Game Developer gets engaged, curated Gamers across the game lifecycle and the Gamer in return gets to convert their play time and skill into monetary value. This monetary value is accrued from within and outside the game economy.

Essentially, KGeN is an endeavour to reduce mortality of Games while ensuring Gamers partake in the economic value they create in the ecosystem.
