"A new and exciting gaming currency that will revolutionize in-game purchases and bring developers a monetization based on fair-play rules"

There is a server called buxville that utilizes an economy with dynamic prices. I don't think it is still up, but essentially, there were several towns throughout the map that each had a handful of items players could sell to. One town traded farmables, one traded ores, etc. Everything had a starting price, but prices were entirely dependent on how much other products were being sold to the server. For example, if someone sold 100,000 carrots, the price of carrots would drop a considerable amount, let's say from $3 to $1.8. In addition, the prices of everything else, from diamonds to potatoes, would increase proportionally. Diamonds might go from $45 to $45.5 and potatoes might go from $3 to $3.10.

The benefit to this is that it encourages diversity among players, and establishes niches. Through a normal server shop, prices are stagnant, and players will quickly realize which few products have the highest payout. Everyone will farm those specific items, as they are most profitable. This wouldn't be the case, since the more of a single item that is sold, the less that item is worth. When I played on there, I specialized in selling steak, leather, and wool. I also sold enchantment tables and obsidian from time to time. Other players worked as traditional farmers and miners, and some others grinded more niche items like prismarine.

In this situation, it would be a little different for two reasons: 1) A Drug server offers a single shade of economy: farming. That's just what the gameplay is. 2) The currency is finite.

Now, could such an economy work with this set up? I suppose it could. The way I would do it would be to make the price of each drug fixed to a variable percentage. What I mean by this is cactus, sugarcane, etc. will have a % attached to it, and will be bought by the server for that percent of the total wallet. These percentages could be dynamic with selling, so that the more each crop is sold, the lower the percentage of that crop, and higher of others. For example: let's say there are three drugs that can be sold to the server: sugarcane, carrots, and cactus. Sugarcane will have a value of .0005%, carrots will be .001%, and cactus .0025%. One player sells his sugarcane to the shop, and as a result, percentages change to .0004%, .00105%, and .00255%. (actual numbers could vary). Prices will fluctuate with server balance and in respect to most commonly sold commodities.

Of course, this is not something that could be done with chest shop. It would most likely have to be manually coded.

However, there is still a glaring problem with this formula. The nature of drug servers is that players earn more the more they play. As players move up the ladder, they unlock new perks, expand their operations, and earn significantly more than those at the start. Couple that with the fact that players are going to be looking to withdraw their earnings, and you are going to see a wallet that will be rapidly depleting, barring new players from the game and thus destroying the server. Here's why I think such an event would be reality:

At the start of the server, the wallet will be at its highest balance. Some early players may use exchanges to give them a boost, and everyone at the start will be competing to reach the top. Once they do start to get closer to the top, they are going to continue selling, but now also withdrawing. Not everyone will put in what they take out, which will mean the server wallet will continually decrease. Even when players purchase ranks and perks, it is highly likely that high ranking players will suck the wallet dry whenever it is refilled. New players will not be able to make any significant income without spending outside crypto, which most players will be unwilling or ignorant to do. As a result, it will be hard to get new players on board. Established players will see diminishing returns and the lack of players at the start means even less money going back into the server wallet. This would ultimately lead to a dying server.

Of course, this problem would be nullified by the dynamic economy listed above, but such an economy would not erase it completely.

I'm not trying to shit on this idea, because I've played on a few servers that operate on crypto economies and I absolutely love the concept. I just don't see a plausible outcome for a traditional drug server to be successful while operating on a real world economy.

Yes, it takes an influx of buyers, plenty of FOMO and market euphoria to induce that rapid escalating price movement. Taking the DotCom bubble as an example, Joe Public was piling into all manner of Internet Stocks convinced that the boom would never end and that all these on-paper companies were destined to be global behemoths. Similar with the housing boom / MBS debacle; Average Joe started flipping houses and traded their careers in to become property developers.

Bitcoin has had its baby bubbles. We've had innovators/techies/libertarians & relative early adopters/dark marketers. So next time, like the famous anecdote goes, if the taxi drivers / shoeshine boys ever start talking up bitcoin, its probably a sign the top is near. All that VC money will start producing products this year & next - maybe the timing will co-incide?

So there is a GARGANTUAN problem with a crypto economy on a drug server. The way that drug servers work is that people grow crops (drugs) that they sell back to spawn in order to rank up in the game. You said that the economy will be player to player, but a large, large majority of transactions will be the server selling Trapcoin (in game currency) to the players in exchange for these drugs. Where will this Trapcoin be coming from? If it is being generated at will, there will be a massive hyperinflation of the currency, because making money on a drug server becomes exponentially easier over time (the more time you put into the game, the more money you can earn and the more your profits are increasing).

Now, if the economy truly is player to player, and there is no server shop to buy/sell from, you run into the problem that players aren't going to exchange trapcoin with one another. Farming crops is insanely easy, nobody is going to purchase any drugs from one another when they can easily hoard them.

There are other issues with the set up (/fly on a pvp/anarchy server is insanely unbalanced) but the main problem is that I just don't see how you could make such an economy work. One way that COULD work would be for the server to have its own wallet, and every rank up or perk purchase sends all coins into that wallet. Server shop has fluid prices based off of the size of the wallet and prices will depreciate/appreciate as the server bankroll decreases/increases. However, people will be trying to hoard their crypto more than they will try to spend it, so it's a very real possibility that in such an economy, server shop prices would eventually depreciate to 0.

Let me end this by saying I, too, have been playing Minecraft for quite some times. I've been heavily involved in a multitude of servers, including playing an active role in one server from its inception, to its appreciation to the #1 most popular server (back in Beta 1.8 ) to its ultimate demise. I have also designed server economies. I love Minecraft, and what I love in particular is the economic aspect. I know exactly what does/doesn't work. If you need any advice or would like some help, feel free to let me know.

The problem isn't the method of exchange, the problem is the type of server that trapcoin is to be implemented on. As far as Minecraft servers go, an in game currency that represents some denomination of the crypto is an absolute must. Things happen fast in MC. It takes only a simple chat command to send any amount of money from one player to another.

The problem is that drug servers typically operate on command economies: players farm drugs and sell them to the server (which is typically an entity with infinite spending). Players accumulate money and then buy upgrades and rank ups from the server. This is fine for a server where the in game currency has no real life value. In this instance, however, it's hard for me to believe that OP could foster an environment that isn't unplayable or suicide for the crypto.

Anything new and exciting with this coin the past few weeks? Still holding onto a sizeable chunk of GMC, but haven't been keeping up on it too closely. Definitely stoked for when a fully functioning game is fully released that uses a GMC economy. That is going to be awesome!

Okay, that makes more sense.

Will Steem Dollar earnings be withdrawn as Steem? And if so, does that mean there is no difference between Steem Power and Steem Dollars once they are liquidated and removed from the site?

There is no way this will be sustained for more than a few days. Tons of Promising ICOs are taking place soon. LISK in a week of course, WAVES a little further down the road. A lot of the Ether traders who are just going for the profit margins are going to at least diversify into some of these new, similar coins.

Thank you!!

I can't seem to find any link to an exchange. Does this mean facilecoin is not yet being traded?

I already sent paid request to yobit. I am checking now ccex.

When you say '104 weekly payments' does that mean your Steem Power will take two years to fully withdraw? I have a hard time believing there is any practical reason to lock up earnings for such an insane amount of time...
