Claims20
A gaming system, comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- computer memory coupled with the processor, the computer memory comprising data stored thereon that, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to:
- receive, from a gaming device of a player of a game of chance, a request to redeem a gated Non-Fungible Token (NFT), the gated NFT providing an exclusive token gated benefit from the gaming system available only to an owner of the gated NFT;
- authenticate that the player owns a digital wallet identified by the player;
- when the player is an authenticated owner of the digital wallet, determine from the digital wallet that the digital wallet contains the gated NFT;
- and
- when the digital wallet contains the gated NFT, provide the exclusive token gated benefit to the player.

A gaming system, comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- computer memory coupled with the processor, the computer memory comprising data stored thereon that, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to:
- determine that a predetermined event has occurred in the gaming system;
- and
- in response, changing a value of a use counter associated with a Non-Fungible Token (NFT) associated with a player, wherein the use counter determines a number of possible token redemptions for the NFT.
