Despite how much we love gaming, we do occasionally become struck by the thought that we could be doing something more productive. We spend all this money on the best gaming PC, the best mouse, the best keyboard, all of it, but we never truly capitalize on it.

Yeah, you could become a streamer or a YouTuber, monetizing your hobby that way, but that’s a lot of work, time, and investment. Additionally, you run the very real risk of turning your once-loved hobby of gaming into a daily grind indistinguishable from the office job that you’re trying to escape.

If only there was a way to utilize the process of gaming itself, making it actually profitable to play games. Well, luckily for you, dear reader, GAIMIN can do just that.

What is GAIMIN?

gaimin.cloud is a decentralized computing network, which is essentially a network of multiple computers working together. It’s not a new concept, however, GAIMIN is the first company to identify gaming PCs as a source of decentralized networked processing power.

It makes sense, too, as gaming PCs are extremely powerful these days, but all this power isn’t often utilized, as it’s rare that any game or application can truly take advantage of all the resources available.

So, while you’re gaming, a lot of your GPU, CPU, and RAM is being used to create all those lovely particle effects, ray-traced reflections, and other marvelous visuals. Unfortunately, there are gaps left, amounts of resources left untapped.

That’s where GAIMIN comes in. It fills the gaps left by these games and applications, instead dedicating the unused power to gaimin.cloud which monetizes the available processing power for activities, such as rendering and processing of blockchain computations, and very soon, the provision of supplementary processing power for AI-based applications. These services are monetized by GAIMIN, returning cryptocurrency rewards back to users allowing their devices to participate in gaimin.cloud.

So, while you’re gaming, GAIMIN utilizes the spare processing power of your PC to perform these services in the background. However, if you have a lower-performing device, GAIMIN allows you to determine how much of your GPU can be used for monetization, which ensures there’s no lag on gameplay but you still earn some rewards. But how does this reward you?

How does GAIMIN earn you rewards?

Unfortunately, it’s not quite as simple as that, however, it’s not far off. As you’re gaming, you determine how much of your available GPU is used for monetizing. GAIMIN sends “data processing jobs” to your device and pays you a proportion of what GAIMIN earns for the job based on how much of the job your device delivers and how many other users share the processing of the job.  You build up rewards in GMRX, which is GAIMIN’s cryptocurrency. GAIMIN receives payment for the jobs in a number of different cryptocurrencies and fiat, so it’s easier to consolidate into a single payment mechanism. GMRX will be listed soon on crypto exchanges and so will have a tangible value. Until listing, the rewards are converted into USDC, which is a stablecoin. You can withdraw USDC to your crypto wallet and use it for purchases or sell it in an exchange for fiat. 

If you retain your USDC as GMRX you can use it within GAIMIN’s marketplace for in-game asset purchases. Certain games actually support the purchase of GMRX to purchase in-game currency, meaning that you could be getting Apex Coins or V-Bucks for Fortnite for essentially free. It’s worth noting here that GMRX is not currently listed on any exchange, meaning that you can’t yet trade it for other currencies or fiat. As far as we know, this is the lowest-effort solution to monetizing your PC gaming habit.

You can then trade this for GMRX, which is a deflationary token. This means that unclaimed tokens are deleted from the blockchain periodically, meaning that it potentially increases in value.

When listed, GMRX will be a deflationary cryptocurrency, which means GAIMIN will be taking positive steps to maintain and possibly increase the value of GMRX in the open market. 

How to set up GAIMIN

Despite the complexities surrounding cryptocurrency and the slightly confusing description above, all that stuff is managed behind the scenes for you, by  GAIMIN’s PC-based application.

Luckily, setting up the GAIMIN application is super easy, requiring about the same amount of work as installing Steam or Origin or something like that.

Simply head over to www.gaimin.gg and click the download button. Within a few minutes, your download will finish and you can install the application from here.

After you’ve opened the app and set up an account, you’ll be redirected over to Venly, where you set up your wallet and copy your Venly wallet address into your GAIMIN account Anyone already familiar with Cryptocurrency will know how simple a process this step is.

After that, you’re all done! Simply sit back, play games just as you always have, keep an eye on your other monitor, and watch as the live counter tracks your estimated earnings in real-time.

Do you need a powerful PC to earn rewards with GAIMIN?

No, you can earn rewards with virtually any system. As we mentioned, GAIMIN works by taking advantage of otherwise unused computational power. Even older systems won’t be fully utilized by games, meaning that there will always be overheads that GAIMIN can use. You can even select the processing power available to GAIMIN if you are seeing lag in your gameplay. You have control!

Obviously, the rate at which you earn rewards will increase with the power of your PC, so someone with an i9 13900K and an RTX 4090 will earn faster than someone with a 4770K and a 980Ti.

However, the principle remains the same, unless you’re using GAIMIN, you’re leaving performance on the table, so download GAIMIN and put an end to the waste.

How can you use the GMRX that you’ll earn?

At present, GAIMIN already has piloted blockchain and NFT integrations with a few of the most popular PC games out there. We’re talking GTA V and Minecraft, and many more will be added. If you play Fortnite or APEX Legends, you can use your earned rewards for Fortnite V-Bucks or APEX Coins by purchasing gift cards with your GMRX, giving you “free” currency for use in these games.

GAIMIN is actively working with games developers to allow GAIMIN blockchain and crypto technology to be incorporated into games by releasing API and SDK technology to games developers to allow them to modify their games and convert Web 2 games to Web 3. 

Over time, GMRX could become the in-game currency and support the in-game economy, GAIMIN’s approach to re-suable in-game assets (based on NFT technology) will enable a player to build up an in-game inventory which they own, even when changing games. Using GMRX to purchase these in-game assets will enable GAIMIN to enhance the attributes and characteristics of NFTs when GMRX is used. 

GAIMIN’s approach allows you to retain ownership of your in-game assets. If you change games, you will not lose any of your investment as the in-game assets are held outside the game, in your wallet, allowing you to use, sell and rent them – generating more rewards from typical commercial activities! Also key to this approach is all in-game assets will be managed through smart contracts. This means if you rent an NFT to someone else for 2 weeks, everything is automatic – you receive the agreed payment in your wallet, the other person receives the NFT for 2 weeks and at the end of 2 weeks, the asset is automatically transferred back to you.

Why you should download GAIMIN right now

After all the talk of NFTs, GMRX, decentralized computing networks, and a million other complex-sounding topics, we feel the need to reiterate the simple and profitable benefits of using GAIMIN on your very own gaming PC right now.

It boils down to the facts. No game uses your PC to its full potential, no application does that either, so there is always unused performance going to waste. Additionally, as we mentioned, there are real-world benefits waiting to be taken advantage of, and with some of the most popular PC games being supported right now, there is no reason to not use GAIMIN to maximize your computing productivity.

After all, if you spent all that cash on the GPU, CPU, RAM etc, you haven’t made your money’s worth without GAIMIN.  and put your PC to work in the background, while you kick back and continue gaming, with GAIMIN.
