I do not think there is any intentions for Pokemon to give rewards in bitcoin. Because as the article speculated ,I saw this morning a video for someone is playing the game using a drone and mirrors his screen on the laptop. So it is very easy to cheat in the game. The rest of the article is just talking about a faucet !

I have read that article and as far as my understanding goes the article was just a speculation or a "what if ?". It tries to merge pokemon and bitcoins and you may get tokens while playing. The idea was not out of hand since there are a lot of online app games that gives price to players by just playing it. Its not new in the online apps but what makes the story interesting is the popularity of pokemon go at this time.

I think its a good idea but there are cryptocoin also to used aside from bitcoin. If this happen that game will be using bitcoin, it will give a bost to bitcoin and will propel the demand, and hopefully will push also the bitcoin pricẹ Hope that it will happen soon

pokemon GO just got the popularity instantly and have nothing to do with bitcoin,adding faucet or getting paid by playing seems just useless thing they don't want to do,and evne without it the game still being played by so many people,so i think these speculations just far to be realized

Too good to be true, and game isnt that much reliable with his anticheats deal with issues, you just need a fake gps app (a paid one) and some nice pics on your screen to get all the pokemons you need..
and lets say they make it anti-cheatable you gonna need a shitload of cpu/ram power in order to run the game & the blockchain, things will get messy,
I believe this speculation was made to create some hype, and BTC fans get involed with pokemon

[cjrosero]

its just an idea but its a good one. .lets just pray that they will integrate it soon enough while pokemon go is on heat. when it does its a good opportunity for bitcoin community this is a great chance that bitcoin will get know by other people.

If this story really true the it is going t be a great thing for Bitcoin because that Pokemon Go game is too popular at the moment.
If they are going to implement Bitcoin in the game then that is also going to be allot more popular.

Cant see anything to do with pokemon go having Aany positive affect on bitcoin.  No one is going to use bitcoin to make purchases on it unless it's the only option.  Everyone is already happy using Playstore money.  The only way this would work is if it was offered as the only payment because the dev was a bitcoin enthusiast,  which i doubt he is.

Pokemon GO has already famous without bitcoin because in my country almost all smartphone users playing these game but if in the future they put in bitcoin as new feature i think indirectly these will make bitcoin more popular too because for those who not using bitcoin but playing Pokemon GO they will start to using bitcoin to buying new particular items on Pokemon GO

It would be great for pokemon fan and bitcoin enthusiast at the same time if this stuff happen, but the article is just saying the stating a "what if" scenario.  There is no confirmation anywhere from the article about pokemon Go integrating Bitcoin in it.  Though there was a statement about some pokemon game not pokemon Go already using Bitcoin faucet in their game and the other one that accept Bitcoin as donation.  The article is all about the idea of playing the game with cryptocurrency bonus

The idea is the same concept as the game already but rather than just catching virtual Pokémon with the app each creature could have an asset based crypto-token that could also be traded via the Bitcoin blockchain. Just as Spells of Genesis works with tokens integrated with trading cards, Pokémon Go could be issued through the Counterparty network or another blockchain that issues backed token creatures.

this is very cool if implemented!

Only if Nintendo and Niantic decided to allow high level pokemons to be traded among players then we could be talking about purchasing and selling pokemons for Bitcoin privately. Otherwise I don't think that Apple or Google will allow Bitcoin payments on their app stores because this would be direct competition for their payment solutions they already have.

Pokemon Go is taking down twitter tinder and some other popular apps with its high users activity, integrating bitcoin there will be a great boost for the bitcoin, but how people can earn bitcoin through pokemon go?

Agree, u can't have 1 popular thing and add bitcoin to it for instant success.
There are far more suitable things that could benefit from bitcoin, and its of course not pokemon go game

What are you means, why must hacker to do that. I sure it's too fast for pokemon to think about bitcoin. they have a lot of homework for their system and needed an improvements.

[Kakmakr]

Pokemon interaction will be very good for Bitcoin, if they can link the two together. I heard that they will have some sort of transmitted hidden somewhere and if you pass the location, it would award you a Pokemon character. I think it would be good if they link that to a monetary reward, that enables you to buy the figurine. ^smile^

Bitcoin.com is not a reputable news source (it's controlled by banker lobbyist and big block fanatic Roger Ver). I consider this article pure click bait, because it doesn't report any facts - it's pure speculation.

In my view it is highly unlikely that Pokémon will integrate Bitcoin anytime soon. The simple reason is that Bitcoin is still a niche currency with a comparatively small user base. Paying out Bitcoin to the app's users might confuse the majority of them, since they do not know enough about BTC. So (at least for today) I don't think it's a viable marketing strategy for the app.

Instead of speculating on new non-essential services accepting Bitcoin, I would be pleased to see real businesses from the primary sector accepting BTC. Farmers and producers of raw materials accepting Bitcoin for payment would bring us much further in terms of a native Bitcoin closed-loop economy than applications in the entertainment sector.

ya.ya.yo!
