What if an mmo were created from this new line of currency? Some of the items that people would really be after would end up being super rare or dropped by incredibly strong monsters and you can only buy them with the BP's but you could also resell the same item for more or less BP's. Some items would be discontinued and rare so they would increase in value over time while others would have a steady value.

Or I could ask a friend who I know can code for games if he could do it. Smiley

/Edit

Of coarse we would also have to worry about graphics and music and such.

This would face some serious design challenges.  In order to provide good gameplay you need to be able to regulate the in game economy, which can be tough with a currency that you don't have full control over.

Sounds Interesting, also because the damn bitcoins are open source. But  I agree with BP (before poster), it is hard to regulate/implement a currency you can't handle.

Nice idea.  So many things that can be done with BitCoins.  Have to do alot of work on your in-game economy tho.  Most games have huge inflation issues.

Yep, looking at it I know it'd be one huge challenge so I'm not even sure if it's possible yet. Everything had to have an idea before it was created though. Not all ideas are winners but I thought I'd share this one anyways. Grin

OMG that is so true! XD One time I played an mmo that had been hacked so badly the money was practically worthless so we had to barter in items.
