BITCOIN AS PAYMENT FOR ONLINE GAMES

[nrvasquez]

I think that's a very good thing, because with it will make it easier for gamers to do a transaction. and I think if bitcoin is made into the main currency for gamers, I think they will also agree.

I need your opinion about having bitcoin for payments in online games, it is good or nah?

Using bitcoin as payments for in-game items and upgrades is very useful since many people are capable of technology devices though bitcoin and online games are done by computers.

I thinks its very efficient for me as a gamer and a bitcoin user to have a transaction or payment like that.

i am a gamer even not really be casher but bitcoin payment in my game is very helpful for me because with current rate $ to my currency + fee really different with if pay with bitcoin

[AtheistAKASaneBrain]

It's a great addition of course. That's why Steam, the biggest gaming platform, already enabling wallet top-up with Bitcoin. The industry revolving around online gaming like in-game item trading, match betting, gambling, etc also use Bitcoin as the main payment (withdrawal and deposit) method.

Im not sure if he is talking about that. Steam does allow you to buy in-game items? Im not really a gamer but I like playing some games and I buy them on Steam with bitcoin, mostly thanks to small jobs I do for some extra income that are paid in BTC (some come from the sig campaign for example, which is a reason why sig campaigns are important and other jobs like that, they stimulate the bitcoin economy) and I like to buy the games there but I have never bought items.

I think in-game trading means buying inside the game without the Steam GUI. This will be possible once we have payment channels. Imagine a MMORPG game where you can go to the marketplace and buy items there in exchange of BTC. That is some next level stuff for videogame's ingame economies in role playing games and im sure payment channels will allow us to do that, so I cannot wait to explore th endless possibilities once the lightning network is operative.

I've seen some purchases of game items using bitcoin, but to try it personally I've never done it before, I guess with payouts using bitcoin, it would be great especially for bitcoin users, namu. I think there are some shortcomings if buying using bitcoin, which we know, bitcoin price is very volatile, this causes us to pay more bitcoin when the price goes down and I think it is a waste, because we will pay more for the same price.

Most of those transactions are micro transactions. Which obviously aren't suitable for Bitcoin right now, given it's high fee's.

Need your opinion about having bitcoin payments for online games. It's good or bad? It's best addition of course.Bitcoin enabled wallet to top-up,the biggest gaming platform etc.The game will adjust for currency.So better use dollars for the terms of market value or currency for your game.

It seems to me that the subject of payment for bitcoins of video games is very cool. This market already has big turnover. And if they make it possible to sell items in the game for bitcoins. This is generally very cool.

[jonval21]

I wish some day can buy and sell in game items and sell it with a cryptocurrecy with very low fee.

imagine to buy for example a sword of a mmorpg with just 0.00001$ and sell it too that day that happens will be amazing.


in that case do you think that lightning network can be usefull for micropayments ?

[SvenBomvolen]

The idea seems good to me, I like such games as LoL and WoW, in both those games used their own payment system as gold coins, which you earn during the game doing different missions. I know that some things around this games you can buy with real money. I think all this can easy start to use bitcoin for payment, and with all bitcoin's perspectives this option can become really profitable to those who sell and to all the game heads indeed.

Yes it would be much easier than converting real cash to in-game currencies, and it would be better if they would also provide coins whenever you sell items, that will make on line game economy much better and interesting and adding bitcoin as an option would give more fluidity in transactions that gamers who doesn't want to go through tedious processes other online payment systems offers.

[Momoamzad]

It will be  very usefull for sure . I know some of games they rewarded btc. So it would be good decision.

[Risktaker31]

This is a good idea for an online games addict like me. Maybe we can buy cd-key using bitcoin too. I wish valve got a solution to have bitcoin as a method of payment on their platform .

[lvincent]

Its a good idea btc use payment for online games. It will have a good effect on bitcoin if gamers uses btc the demand of btc will rise so is it's value so us bitcoin holders will benefit from it...

[bannedaccount3124]

Would be awesome where ever we can get bitcoin as a accepted currency we should to increase value and exposure.

Yeah it is very useful for online gamers and bitcoiners to use bitcoin as mode of payment in online games. It is easy and fast transactions. In our local exchanger site there is a feature that you can top up on online games, you can also pay your bills and top up load of your cellular phones. You don't need to go to bank or remittance center and fall in line for long time just to pay your bills.

[Ranly123]

Its a good idea having that platform for online games, a lot of people are on online games suh as steam which is the biggest onlines games platform. Having this addition will surely increase the users of bitcoin.

[Sskapollo7]

Bitcoin is THE best option for putting your BTC in online games as it relates to trading , selling , buying and many more..
Though Bitcoin allows openly to use them on gaming (directly) : no need to convert your BTC in any other currencies(dollar , rupees , pounds etc.) Satoshi works !

[xskl0]

The proof of that is Steam actually accepting it as a payment.

of course good. not just payment for games only, but all payments using bitcoins are very easy and efficient

[Coin12]

I am not a gamer. If bitcoin is used for game online payment i will support. Why? Because more people will know and realize how important is bitcoin. So they will use it and rising marketcap too.
It means good for bitcoin growing.
