What if POKEMON GO let people earn Bitcoin?

[danherbias07]

That won't be of any effect to bitcoins, but yeah, will possibly get this game some great exposure to bitcoin's community as we are too game-ogenic people who love to play Pokemon GO...

Game-ogenic eh?  Millions of users got hooked with this game at first but I think now it is getting less due to being bored of the game. There is not much in it. So what could have happened if they used bitcoin here. They pay and played now what? The blame will be at bitcoin again. They will say they paid for a game that is not worth it.

if bitcoin will be integrated in pokemon go, it will be the biggest promotion in the bitcoin history. And what if there will be registration fee during tournament in the form of bitcoin and also the reward for the competition will be bitcoin. It will be a very big hit. Soon millions of people will add to the population of the bitcoin community and soon are saved bitcoins will skyrocket in price.

Sounds like a marriage made in heaven: A trackable service tying the knot with a trackable payment mechanism. They're placing the portable signs in 3-LAs offices as we speak - Caution! Wet floor! I'll leave it to your imagination as to how the floors got wet. A hint to those lacking imagination: think zipper.

I think it was good . it must be not only pokemon I hope all of the game let us to earn bitcoin. I have a game that let me earn btc from it but there is just small amount of btc. That is get borring. But if pokemon let people to earn bitcoin it will be such as trading.

[drwtsn32]

As of now, there is a new feature created in the Pokemon GO app where you can send pokemon to anyone.
The only thing that's left is an escrow feature, right? But I don't think of the possibility as of the moment because bitcoin is not that much popular today for Niantic to consider integrating it.

[JITENDERPAR3]

pokemon go is a very adventurous game what will happen if we buy by the exchange of some btc for the only fun of a game . we will not get any money . is there any way to get more btc by buying amd after that selling in online.market .

[daneranon89]

POKEMON GO integrating bitcoin could be a new chapter for both POKEMON GO and for bitcoin. I think it can rapidly increase the user base for both pokemon go and bitcoin. Bitcoin will have new demand and this may increase the price and later it can even bring better stability to the price as we get new users. Not just pokemon go, If other apps start adopting bitcoin and introduces BTC to their users, it an lead to an exponential growth for the bitcoin community. This seems interesting I am looking forward to it.

[lawnmowerIO]

Awesome idea! Reminds me of the Cryptomon project.

[luxuryvilla]

If they implement bitcoin earning, I think many bitcoiners will download and play, I don't play pokeman go now, but if it has btc earning feature, I will play it.

i playing pokemon go just for fun, but great idea if it can earn bitcoin

this game is not popular again before it makes all the panic state use the service GPS looking pokemon especially the military many died due to landmines and now I hear Cryptocurrency name pokemon Is that true make everyone mad game from Japan I would not get carried away

[lanhotkia]

just remember when people start selling account that played by bot , and they can be rich if Pokemon-Go let user sell pokemon to get real money.

Yeah, it seems that if the bitcoin is added there, the game will be full of abusers.

[Betwrong]

Just wanted to mention that, while it might be fun discuss these 'What if ...' scenarios, the chances of this being implemented are close to zero.
And I think there have been other topics that basically asked the same question, so I don't really see the point in having this discussion again.

I don't know, looks like an interesting idea to me. I think Nintendo should be contacted and they will decide what to do with the idea. They might change it a bit but still adopt.

my friend have bad experience during playing these game because he almost hit by a car when he was catching pokemon also i had feel that these game isn't popular any longer because lack of good feature so bitcoin integrated with pokemon go this is just discourses and will never happened

[drwtsn32]

Yes, this seems to be one of the major problems if this happened.
There is still a lot to consider but I don't think Niantic will be careless about this.

yeah it is dangerous and if they were accepting it to be honest in my opinion then it would be even dangerous

[bitdumper]

It is risky but it is crealy profitable  infact we know how a busness works and if bitcoin combined with pokemon got then its actully better advertisement and maybe it can increase the supply more than we are gussing

That doesn't make sense to me.PokemonGo and bitcoin both are two separate technologies with different business modals,wait bitcoin doesn't have a business modal!Integrating bitcoins with PokemonGo is a severe disadvantage I believe.People who are actually into gaming would not bother using bitcoins and the crowd which is already using bitcoins would not bother installing PokemOngo for a few satoshis.What architecture you expect the game to have in order to make money/bitcoins from it ?

I agree,it's fun earning bitcoins while walking around catching pokemons but who'd sponsor it ? Imagine,1 million users playing pokemons at the same time earning a few satoshi's every hour.Where do you think all the bitcoins are falling from? Sounds as stupid as company paying people to forcibly play the game.The business will never work out.

It would function best on an external marketplace where people could meet, exchange btc in escrow, make the trade, then release the payments.  I don't think an in-app feature would be useful or plausible.  If an enterprising person made all the above happen, they could make a pretty penny on service fees
