1. A method for use with a client device that includes a processor and a memory, the method comprising:
receiving, at the client device, an application launch request for user's play of a game via a game application having a game non-fungible token (NFT) associated therewith, the game application configured to determine if the user's play of the game is permitted based on ownership of the game NFT;
generating, via the game application and in response to the application launch request, launch metadata;
sending the launch metadata to an NFT wallet associated with the client device, the NFT wallet containing a private key associated with the game NFT;
receiving, from the NFT wallet, a launch response that is generated based on the private key;
generating, via the game application and based on the launch response, an ownership check;
sending the ownership check to a blockchain client device that stores the game NFT;
receiving, from the blockchain client device, an ownership validation response that indicates whether user's ownership of the game NFT is verified; and
enabling, via the game application, the user's play of the game via the client device when the ownership validation response indicates the user's ownership of the game NFT is verified.
