Gamescom hosts gaming industry giants like Microsoft’s XBOX, Bethesda, and Blizzard among the attendees. Beam’s showcase in Gamescom will eventually drive the mainstream gamers to be interested in the crypto gaming scene, perhaps even leading to big partnerships with the big shots like how Immutable secured a partnership with Ubisoft for a blockchain-based game back in 2023.

Gamescom 2024 will be held in Cologne, Germany on August 21.
With Beam’s continuing innovation for its platform, it will disrupt the crypto-gaming space becoming one of the major players in the industry long-term. In terms of how it will affect BEAM’s price movement is still a mystery.
BEAM Slightly Dims As Market Slows Down
As of writing, the token is still on the green, attempting to break through the $0.01444 ceiling in the short term with a sharp uptick in price. This breakthrough might not happen today as the bulls lose steam. This won’t hurt gains in the past 24 hours, but it will affect long-term gains if the token loses its momentum.
Two things can happen in the next couple of days: BEAM breaks through the $0.01444 ceiling flipping it to support, or the bulls fail to secure the latter price ceiling and then stabilizes on the $0.01273 and $0.01444 price range.

If the breakthrough continues, investors and traders should aim to settle on $0.01685 for the long term, giving BEAM strong support for further upward movement. However, if the opposite happens, the token might dive below $0.01444, settling in the $0.1054-$0.01273 price range.
However, investor confidence in the platform and token is high. With their attendance at Gamescom being the biggest driver of retail investor interest, we might expect more movement once we enter the next week. Investors and traders should keep an eye on BEAM as its mainstream entry will have a significant effect on retail perception on the crypto gaming scene.
