some games manage to do this - EVE Online has a play-to-earn model, and those who grind to earn become gameplay elements for other players (the whole game is PVP non-consensually).

EVE definitely doesn’t have a play-to-earn model. It has a way to pay your “subscription” via the in-game currency but this transaction is still one way and you can’t redeem the playtime token outside of the game for real money (without breaking T&Cs). The play-to-earn elements are the same as all MMOs, in the meta-game with gold farming which CCP still crack down on heavily.
