I have never been able to figure out the answer to this, so maybe someone here knows: exactly how does one implement blockchain technology into a game, and what's the purpose of doing so? Like in terms of actual gameplay, what's it supposed to achieve? Is there a valid reason you'd want to include it?

Most of the supposed benefits of blockchain in gaming would either never actually be realized due to the infeasibility, or would be just as easily implemented using alternative, pre-existing methods.
