Would U like to see Bitcoin implemented in Pokemon Go?

[The Sceptical Chymist]

I don't know or care about exactly what this is, but I'm hearing about it everywhere.   It's the latest fad to distract people from all the terror attacks and shitty political candidates.   So if bitcoin can somehow crowbar itself into the game and thereby create a rising tide that lifts all our boats...bring it on.  Then we're all going to wake up with a dirty whore (Trump) in our bed and wonder how the hell we didn't get sober sooner.

Would u like it if Pokemon Go had Bitcoin implemented in it?

So u can go to some Pokespots and earn the Bitcoin?

Also trade some Pokkemons for some Bitcoin?

~CfA~

Who would be the sender? If pokemon team then why spending extra money on something they don't have any benefit, because bitcoin can not be used to buy PokeCoins because that part is managed by third party like Appstore for iOS and PlayStore for Android devices. We are optimist but when things have no logic I don't agree on them.

I think he is correct. I think, it would be better if google and apple accept bitcoins so that it can implement purchasing game credits using bitcoin. So all apps in android and ios can be accept bitcoins. But I think that idea is still far from reality.

Yeah maybe it can happen, because it is not a little too bitcoin users who play pokemon GO. maybe it will attract investors and create it. Currently it is already rife pokemon trading account with bitcoin, I think this is a sign that bitcoin will be integrated with pokemon go. hehe

I dont play pokemon go but im a pokemon fan since i was in grade school. If bitcoin is implemented in the case i would turn my real job to hunt pokemon and trade them to bitcoin.

[BossMacko]

If this will happen with Pokemon Go i will going to play it again. One of my favorite games when i was a kid is playing all version of pokemon. It is nice to earn Bitcoin while playing your favorite game. But sadly this will not happen in the future. Unless some dev will create his own pokemon go version that can use Bitcoin transaction.

why not bitcoin is famous now what if bitcoin implented pokemon go? as they travel they will earn bitcoin for free it's for loots for example  and if that happen someday i will play pokemom go so that i can also earn bitcoins for free and another thing that you can sell your poken or you can sold you poken into bitcoin thats awesome for sure

I don't play Pokemon Go myself, but of course I would like to see Bitcoin implemented in it or in any pop culture thing. What bitcoiner wouldn't want that? It would definitely be good. Anything like this would help reduce the stigmata of bitcoin only being associated with bad things.

There would be some points before taking this leap.
Imagine you are the owner. What will you do if suddenly one wallet site requested you to do this. You can use them as your own wallet for people who will buy then it will be advertisements for them. Then more questions will come. Profits, movement of bitcoin, the risks if it falls and a lot more.

For the most part people are talking about getting paid to play pokemon in bitcoins and I don't see this as a realistic idea.. If Pokemon Go implements bitcoin it would simple be to accept payments.

Unless of course they were using the BTC for advertising purposes or to attract new players, but that is the least of their worries right now. They have too many players for their undermanned company.

[BellaBitBit]

Absolutely.  This would be one of those "bringing crypto to the masses" situation.  So many people are addicted to that and imagine if somehow bitcoin was integrated.

Yeah, but then you have to step-back and ask yourself.. What is Niantic getting out of integrating bitcoin into their game? They have enough trouble keeping their servers up, I doubt they'd do anything revolutionary for something that may not benefit them at all, but it is a nice thought. I think "the masses" know about bitcoin for the most part by now. Now the only tune that needs to change is the level of acceptance

As posted in the other Pokemon Go thread:

Pokemon Go was developed by Nintendo, Niantic, and Google. Pokemon Go is nothing more than an augmented reality version of Google Maps. The simplest way to implement Bitcoin would be adding Google Wallet into the app and having BTC as an accepted form of payment. This could be done virtually overnight.

Google wallet will never play in the same sand box as Bitcoin. They are pushing their own technology, not Bitcoin. I would like to see Bitcoin working directly with Pokémon GO and not some third party

App... If they do not want to accept Bitcoin or incorporate it in their game, then our community should develop a Bitcoin version on our own. I would much rather search for little Bitcoin treasure chests,

than these little Pokémon's. So who will be first out to market with this?

That would be the fuel that bitcoin would need to go completely mainstream toward a mass public recognition.
But alas that is not going to happen. Nintendo toting bitcoin is just a unicorn that is made from fantasy.

It definitely would make a lot of people think about and look at earning Bitcoin, but I don't know whether or not it would actually change anything. Maybe some people would be interested but unless it was changed to be the primary payment method I don't think it would do much.

But it's true, there is no way Nintendo would get involved with Bitcoin.

Does Nintendo actually have anything to do with Pokemon Go? I thought Niantic was a company branched off from Google. I'm curious, how would they implement bitcoin in a sustainable way other than just accepting it as payment?

No too sure about that Bill. I thought all this time that google supported their maps services used in game. And this Niantic company offered the GPS trajectory needed in the game.
I could not tell you because I have not played the game yet. No phone w/internet to use to play it.

[spazzdla]

I would like to see that happen however... Nanitc is currently dealing with the biggest shit storm to cross a mobile game soo.. ya lol

Nintendo has a 12-33% share of Niantic.. Honestly not sure which as everyone source likes to tell me different amounts.

Yea that would be cool, if decent amount will be given out i'm sure everyone will run around to collect free bitcoins. in the meantime we would have to be careful from folks who could beat us and take our account/coins lol.

I'd like to see nobody above the age of 16 playing Pokemon Go to be honest. It's for kids not adults.
