There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

This is a good idea but honestly, I had read some ICO before about a gaming site wherein you can also get Bitcoin. I don't know if it is now open for use. I hope that there will be more game developers to do the same. That would be a healthy competition and it will be nice o have lots of varieties of games wherein you can earn Bitcoin as the same time while playing it.

in my opinion it is never good to mix games with real money. that will always lead to taking all the fun out of the game because there will be farmers all over the game who will try their best day and night to "farm" items, use any exploit,... and fill the market with those items and earn money from doing so.

but if the items are like a secondary thing to the game, like just cosmetics then it is ok. and there are currently marketplaces (like the steam marketplace) that already do this but with the account balance which is money but not-withdrawable.

It's a HORRIBLE idea because Bitcoin's supply is limited and can't be used in games such as MMORPGs where inflationary currencies that come from infinitely-spawning enemies are necessary.
It can't be used in addition to a game's main currency either because the value of the items will constantly fluctuate based on Bitcoin's prices which is what everyone would hate.

It's true if the game company pays the Bitcoins.There were a couple faucet like flash game sites that paid their users in Bitcoin and most of them ended up failing. On the other hand if you create a marketplace that users can sell their items in Bitcoin and game devs. gets a fee from every item that has sold, I don't see a problem.If users loses many because bitcoin price has changed that will be their challenge and they won't hold it in the market too much. Same principle just like Steam market but you don't have to risk your money by withdrawing 3rd party services with huge cut like %10.

I think I've seen on this forum, someone share a link that show games that produce bitcoin. But after I try some of them, we've just earn a little bitcoin, just like faucet and other ppc.

This idea is great but wont really happen since those companies wont really bother to give out bitcoin for the sake of farmed items but eventually you can purchase in-game items or credits with the use of bitcoin. It do works on opposite way, just like on steam they do accept bitcoin as a payment but not on making bitcoin out of the game.Maybe there are some that i missed but im sure that you would able to earn little amount of satoshis and im sure its not MMROPG.

That would be a good idea. But there are already tokens which are used for online gaming. MobileGo, steemit, gamecredits and skincoin for example. Also it's not wise to use bitcoin because of it's fee. Transaction is so expensive than the given examples. Also i don't think someone will use their bitcoin just for online games. Bitcoin is very expensive these days. Anyway, you can buy online games with bitcoin that's all i know.

That would be a good idea but if the MMORPG site will not do that. Instead to gain more profits they will launch their own coin and sell it on the market that way they can get more bitcoins at their disposal. This will mean more income and profit to the site.

I guess, I just have to wait for a Game Developer at the same time bitcoin user to produce a game and use BTC as currency, thus payments on item purchased will go to his wallet :-) I may be too old to play already if I will wait because it might take a long long time ;-)

I think there are now some groups who are exploring this very idea but many of them opt to have their own digital currencies rather than use Bitcoin though their currencies can be bought using Bitcoin. I have seen some ICO project specializing on gaming and there can be more as we all know that gaming is very lucrative and is now a worldwide phenomenon. They are even popularizing the term e-Sport.

Nice idea it can help our transactions more faster and lot easier and i think many gamers will adopt to bitcoin or any other coin because people enjoy gaming so much if this happens We just need to wait for people or a company starts to add this feature to the games that we are playing, a coin that can be used to gaming it can help a lot.

BitDice casino just started ICO and they are accepting cryptocoins. BTC, Ethereum, DOGE and more. I'ts quite interesting how blockchain gets into the gambling industry. There is my post about that company. https://golos.io/bitdice/@romanpetrush/bitcoin-captures-the-game-industry-market-bitdice

I would not set it up like a faucet.
I think it could have some kind of success if players are able to compete against each other.
Maybe something like a tournament.
While training is free everybody who wants to participate at the tournament must pay an admission fee.
70 % of those fees are given to the top five players as a price in bitcoin.
The rest is profit for the business.

  It's me!!!
