CALL OF DUTY Launches Game with Virtual Currency

[DarkDays]

It's unclear whether this cryptocurrency is actually based on blockchain tech, or if it's just a virtual currency as is quite common nowadays?

Searching online, I can't find any information about which platform the token is launched on, or if it even has a decentralized ledger behind it?

Seems like this would be the most important information, but its completely omitted.

Is this a news? I mean as long as it is not a blockchain based virtual currency, almost ALL games have a currency don't they?
I mean World of Warcraft has been around for maybe close to 20 years now and they have their own currency, every single game has a currency. It is titled either gold, coins, diamonds, tokens, tickets or whatever you want, everything is basically a money form in these games.

I do not see this as a thing that is news worthy if they are not using a cryptocurrency just made for this game. Now THAT would be awesome, you would literally have a crypto currency that you can only earn by playing and you can sell it to make money, people could either earn it or they could simply buy it from you or directly from the game owners, basically all a new economy based around a game.

Is this 💯 legit news? I tried to find such news using Google search but no luck so far, how legit is this news ? It seems it's upcoming, not something that's already up and running

The game peaked to 6 million players within 24 hours. It's more of a hype and I think a game changer which will replace PUBG soon.
I just don't under the concept of "virtual currency". It's same as ingame money or gold.

I really hope it's tradeable and also not a way of leeching funds otherwise im not touching it.

i got the same question in my head but btw do you visit the link ? i havent yet but the link should provide some details or you already visit them but still cant find answer to your question .

you are right that games have a common currency like for example gems  . you can earn them rarely or you can buy them using your prepaid load or other payment option such as credit card  , paypal , etc  . but maybe they are using some kind of crypto related currency and only be relaodable via crypto transaction too .

Personally, I am no longer surprised at such news. Now everyone will want to attract more customers to their product and different methods will be used for this, including blockchain and cryptocurrencies. All this is associated with large changes in international politics, economics and finance. More and more companies are moving away from accepting fiat money, and creating their own digital ones than making their offer unique and attractive.

Lmao these shit-tier crypto journalists can't do basic fact-checking - there's no cryptocurrency here, "virtual currency" doesn't mean crypto or blockchain. This is just centralized in-game currency, the same that already exists in countless other games. Big gaming companies have zero interest in blockchain and crypto, it has no benefits for them, it creates more problems than it solves. No wonder that crypto market falls so easily if so much of it is built on lies like this article.

Cool, I don't understand why so few companies accept cryptocurrency, they can sell crypto at the exchange rate and pay taxes, and it will be more convenient for users.

I'm so happy to see this, millions of people around the world are playing this game and implementing crypto currency is cool, something that I've been dreaming about for a very long time now, imagine playing games and using crypto to upgrade weapons

[fuer44]

that's very good, I hope games like pubg also get support from game developers and crypto so that they can top up using crypto. I think it will be effective, and for all online games you can use it too.

It's very pity that I can't download it on my PC((( It's too old and I can't play even on minimal. I'll go and cry to my Mom to buy me a new PC. I can't stay and wait till the next year because they promised that in 2021 they will buy me a PC. All my friends have performed PC's and they are playing  CALL OF DUTY Warzone with cod warzone hacks. You can't imagine how interesting it is. Really, it works perfectly on their PC's and it's very pleasant to play the COD. I hope that my parents love me and will buy soon a new PC for me.

Where can I find some more feedback?
