In some decades ago, pursuing a career in game development was considered a non lucrative career path compared to a carrer in mainstream entertainment industry. Most people didn’t consider gaming to ever have a high stake in the entertainment industry. And worse, if you were one of the pioneers in the eSports space, you were condemned for dedicating your future to the pursuit of professional gaming. Even today’s famed YouTube personalities and social media influencers were seen as unserious fellows back then before we started to feel the true effects of the technology boom and its influence in our social life.
Fast forward to 2018, and according to the forecast released by Newzoo, 2.3 billion gamers across the globe will spend $137.9 billion on games in 2018.

Even after marketing and selling their game contents, they always face difficulty in cashing out their funds as they have to go through some rigorous processes of money transfer that take could take weeks or months before conclusion.
