Summary

Yield Guild Games (YGG) is a Philippines-based web3 gaming guild and decentralized autonomous organization that gained prominence during the 2021 Axie Infinity play-to-earn boom. The YGG token launched in July 2021, reached an all-time high of approximately $11.27 in November 2021, and subsequently lost over 99% of its value as the play-to-earn economy collapsed. The project has since pivoted toward multi-game community coordination and game publishing under the YGG Play brand, backed by major investors including a16z Crypto and DWF Labs.
