Gaming Industry and Cryptocurrency!

[dupee419]

Well throughout all the years, and when I took a break from posting here in bitcointalk, I took the time on exploring games that are putting cryptocurrency within their game, whether if it is RPG, MOBA, SANDBOX, FPS, etc. I can say that cryptocurrency has been included throughout almost all of the games that I have played, MINECRAFT and BITCOIN is one of the things that I got addicted on, while playing the game I was thinking to myself on how proud I am to be one of the people who are to witness on how crypto has evolved through the years and at the same time witnessing the gaming industry evolving as well. And with THE SANDBOX which I have played before and knowing that they want cryptocurrency to be involved with their game which make me want to play it more! meanwhile Cryptovoxels is very much new to me, but with the game's name itself "Cryptovoxels" makes me very curious and excited on playing the game.

I believe gaming and crypto are such a great match and that it will be gaming that will drive mass crypto adoption. Crypto collectibles and tokens to represent in-game currencies are game changers and will make the transition to a "play to own" model in gaming. I'm working on two projects that are related to this, one is pirate battle game based on Ethereum where you can earn Ether destroying other player ships and will soon have crypto collectibles too:

The other is this token and platforms for the Sim racing eSports community:

This must be very fun for those who like to play games like you. Can be an alternative channel for a hobby, as well as collecting cryptocurrency. This is a unique niche, right, get two pleasures at once. This is also a practical and maximum function in attracting user interest, cryptocurrency can be a reward, an exchange tool for purchasing items, etc. Like carrying real forms in virtual.

Cryptocurrency and the GAMBLING industry can be very suitable, but I am not very sure about the cryptocurrency and the game industry. More than 10 years since the creation of Bitcoin and a few years after most of the big altcoins were made, I can't see the game using cryptocurrency to buy and sell virtual game items to be really popular and successful. Congratulations on the Minecraft server that uses BTC and let's hope the Fortninte clone game will be launched successfully, but other than that the use of crypto is gaming is a good use case, but it's not the only use case.

It wasn't impossible mate, cryptocurrency development still on-going and it'll find great to have some merging moments which it thinks it is effective and could really attract additional market gain. It was 10 years since from the start and we can't decline these changes might happen as well and I believe also that many gaming industries would like to offer such a thing coz they'll find out that online games are on the trend and could be a way to give more excitement to the players and increase market demand they surely have to make it.

Wouldn't gambling fall in the category of gaming? You play games on a casino and if you get lucky you win coins. Slots, minesweeper, dice, poker etc are all games that people play to enjoy. For an extra adrenaline rush, they bet while playing those games. Most of the places consider both online gambling and gaming as the same thing.
Didn't know Minecraft is involved with crypto currencies. How exactly people uses crypto currencies on Minecraft?

Well, the gaming industry will influence the cryptocurrency adoption. For example, Samsung is at the edge of introducing blockchain game app to its mobile App starting from Galaxy 10 upward which will expose blockchain technology to millions of users across the globe. Interestingly, the reward will be on the native token of the blockchain projects that have this mobile App integrated.

[blachken]

I think they should also consider MOBA because that is also something that people will see. Cryptocurrency and the GAMBLING industry can be very suitable, but I am not very sure about the cryptocurrency and the game industry. The Minecraft treasure hunt server will be fun to play.

Heres some detailed info about it: https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/earn-bitcoin-for-playing-mincraft/ and maybe he do separate gaming thru gambling yet there are things which doesnt mean out literal gambling
when playing games so they are on different aspect.When in talks on collaborating crypto in both industries then we are currently seeing that gambling is somewhat on the lead yet its already being used on gambling companies right now but for gaming it isnt really that rampant nor on big numbers but somewhat its already starting to be recognized.

There are so many gamer's who earn through live streaming,
And I think crypto would be the best to make some donation or for them to earn.
I hope that there would be a platform that would make it happen.
And also I hope that there would be a platform where we could buy some in game currency for some online games like Ragnarok Mobile,ML,Garena and other online games too.

Hmmm. I think that's a great idea I never thought of that but I think it would be a great option to have also.!

The streaming platform should also use cryptocurrency as an asset the community or the donators surely are aware of the cryptocurrency even the gamers are not overtime they will be exposed to cryptocurrency since they are streaming if the cryptocurrency is added to the streaming platform as a currency.

We all know that Cryptocurrency and Gaming industry fits well, these assets is already accelerating as there is an estimated 1million$ of transactions traded in these two industry in the past 7 days alone.

The blockchain technology already uses a lot in the gaming industry and tend to be stronger as the gamers support cryptocurrency. There is no doubt that the connection between the two increases the use of cryptocurrency.
Investors are interested and racing to in investing in cryptocurrency games platforms such as The Sandbox and Cryptovoxels want to buy virtual real states with this platform.

Well, the tandem of crypto currency and gaming industry surely is exciting since there are many gamers in different country. But I think, the bitcoin should not be use for payments only or to buy items and/or peripherals in the game. I think there should be atleast other game wherein they can get bitcoin, maybe the best is the gambling but a pvp type of game.

I don't think that there will be a game that you can earn Crypto Currencies like Bitcoin when you play it but just like what you have said it could be a gamble type where you need to bet and need to win to be able to get some cryptos.
There are some third party sites now where you can sell your in-game items for Bitcoin or Ethereum. the example is Dota2, CSGO, and man other games.
I think that the E-sports gaming industry and Crypto Currency will soon play a bigger role in the industry.

Actually, there is but it's a scam/very poor quality . If you tried Telegram before then you will understand. There are channels there where you can olay and earn crypto (particularly btc and eth) at the same time andmost of them are simulation type of game. For example, you have an animal with equivalent hashrate power then as you are leveling the hashrate of it also increases. You can also invest to make your hashrate bigger thus getting profits faster which you can later convert into real btc . That was so ridiculous but got a good concept tho. If bigger and legit gaming companies will develop a better game prior to the concept then much better. Now the only question is where they will get the funds .

The idea of cryptocurrency and blockchain working together with the gaming industry a good one, but I don’t really like the games you have listed here. I’m a kind of person that likes playing games with higher graphics, and Minecraft is not my kind of game, I have not even played it for once, I see people playing and I just don’t like it.

I’m more into action and sports console games with great graphics, just like the Insomniac Spiderman on PS4, or FIFA20 and other games that are like that. So what I’m trying to say is that they should be looking into creating games with such graphics. If they only stick to all these children games they wouldn’t get real gamers on their platform, and moreover these games won’t even earn you much playing them, they are similar to faucets .

Not sure about in-game items but we can easily buy and sell gaming accounts with the help of bitcoins as most of the gaming buy-sell accounts platforms accepts bitcoins or similar payment methods. For example playerauctions support crypto and you may read more about it here: https://support.playerauctions.com/hc/en-us/articles/360034263533-How-to-Pay-with-Bitcoin-USD-Coin-Ethereum-EOS-DASH-Bitcoin-Cash-or-Litecoin

If I'm not mistaken, Twitch accepts crypto payments. Now this is the largest platform for broadcasting games and it's cool that it supports crypto

TWITCH removed bitcoins you can read about it here: https://cointelegraph.com/news/streaming-service-twitch-removes-crypto-payment-options-reddit-user-reports.

I might agree with that but at this moment this is are one just one of the available games that support cryptocurrency. Most of the games listed are made by cryptocurrency companies, not by popular gaming companies.

I'm thinking higher graphics games could also be great since this is where real gamers are popular but this is only going to be available if a certain company or a video game company is going to support the cryptocurrency or use it.

Minercraft is designed that way, players are used to their graphics already but its good to see they supported BTC.

There are several games supporting crypto in EOS platform, there are list of it on their list of dapps mostly for phones where the players are paid with EOS. I have never played any of them but I can see in the dappsradar that there are thousands of gamers playing them.

I just see this article where Call of Duty Launched a game with virtual currency in it, it is not clear if the game is a cryptocurrency but this could be a game that you are looking for with high graphics game.

This is true. Online gaming is already a multi-billion dollar industry. I think gamers can easily adopt the crypto usage. Because the game itself is already complex in some way, so dealing with crypto should be an easy peasy task for them. If crypto will be a part of their day to day game life, I think we will be heading to a much wider adoption in crypto.
