# Competitor Analysis: Blockchain Gaming

Blockchain provides a safe and secure environment for game developers and entrepreneurs. If you are a game developer, you can help players by enabling them to make in-platform payments and purchase assets in cryptocurrencies. Players will not need to wait for 3rd party payment providers to process their fiat currency transactions, instead, they can buy game collectibles instantaneously. The system is decentralized, which means that the game is not owned and controlled by a central authority, but rather by the users, who possess digital assets and game objects. Blockchain start-ups are already noticing this opportunity.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://support-168.gitbook.io/cypher-blockchain-whitepaper-v1.0/competitor-analysis-blockchain-gaming.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
