Well, a key barrier to entry for players to start working and earning in the metaverse has been the need to invest money in NFTs. CGU, offers members CGU as their microfinancing partner. This makes the initial NFT investment to give qualified players the opportunity to new income streams in exchange for a part of their earnings.
Also, CGU is unique in the P2E space as its tech ecosystem uniquely includes a crypto exchange (TimeX) and a crypto labor portal (LaborX) that together allow custom player financing capabilities and player monitoring systems.
At CGU new players are not required to pay anything to start playing. CGU itself funds all NFTs costs through a scholarship, which can be upto $4,000 per player.
