Can We Expect Gambling on Axie Infinity?

[xSkylarx]

It's not good if this is going to lead to gambling because there are many youngsters playing Axie Infinity, if they integrate the gambling section on Axie Infinity, then they should be regulated, I do not have Axie and not playing it, but it's better not to introduce something that will lead to gambling, I'm sure they are weighing their options because there are kids playing this game.

Are you sure that's what they're asking? From where do you assume they have the kids in this game? Axie is one of the hottest play to earn games at the moment, players need to spend 1 money to be able to play well on this platform. What makes you think kids know about blockhain and put money into it to join? Whether or not you want to gamble may be an open choice, but the reasons you give are not convincing.

Yes, it is not free to play, but I saw one post about adding a chat system to the game, and their opinion was that it would be much worse because anyone could chat and say bad words or other things, even if it did not affect the game. I believe it will become toxic soon, but the environment in Axie is not yet toxic, only when there are issues or maintenance.

Games too young to tell. Though I think it's still rather too simple (the meta anw) for gambling to take place? When more balances come out and everything is pretty much equal with luck being reduced to a factor of 10 maybe 20%, then gambling wouldn't really be far from it. I'm rather interested in it as well tbh, since the combination of cards and its synchronization with other cards seems really fun. Team building was a thing I've always done whenever I've had free time, sadly I don't have enough funds to actually check them out if it works or not.

The gambling is for tournaments anyway, regular players wouldn't really lead youngsters to gamble. As for playing, well, that's up to them. Axie in itself is a gamble imo, and youngsters wouldn't enter it without having to ask their parents for money, and they're parents themselves should pretty much understand the costs of investing after a bit of search.

The fact that there's already a plan for that, means it's possible that we see some Axie tournaments and events on our favorite Sportsbook in the future providing the current community it has. There will be no problem building a gambling market for this which is a requirement on some sportsbook before they will consider listing it.

There will be no in-game gambling feature. What the subject means is, Axie is planning to take the game to a higher level by dedicating servers to their future E-sports events. The gambling part is like the common and usual betting on other games on E-sports. To explain it literally, the community will place a bet on bookies.

Axie or any game is not responsible if youngsters will be involved in gambling. That discussion is out of context. Regardless of any games, those youngsters will encounter, they will learn to gamble in different ways.

The announcement is meant for a tournament to gain more players out there, This is a common competition for any NFT games or Blockchain games ever since gaming introduced as Dapps. The first time I saw kind of event is on EOS dapps like EOSknight. Implementing a gambling feature on the game will just make the server worst. The game is very laggy and lots of bugs this last few days. I wonder if they can still keep up running a smooth server while the demand is incresing.

I guess aioc misunderstood OP's question. By gambling, I think OP does not mean it would be integrated into the Axie Infinity platform itself. If I were to rephrase cabalism13's question, it would be like, "would bookmakers release betting odds for Axie Infinity tournaments in the future?"

It doesn't mean there'd be gambling on Axie itself. It means the likes of Sportsbet, Nitrogen, FortuneJack, Stake, Cloudbet, and other betting platforms would release betting lines whenever an Axie tournament is happening just like they do with other eSports like DOTA II, CS:GO, and so on.

Anyway, I've personally known underaged kids playing Axie as a scholar. I guess there is nothing wrong with it. It's just a game. And you don't have to know blockchain in order to join the game.

[imstillthebest]

not all video games that are in esport are catered by betting sites .
 some fighting games for instance but playing axie already had an element of playing a gambling because you need capital to get started and you are using your skill and maybe some luck to win and earn cryptos in the game . bringing the game into esports can make the game more trendy tho which is good for the game developer and to the investors  .

[YOSHIE]

Will this be the path that might lead to Gambling?

the mode offered by Axie Infinity(AXS) is a game in the form of 'adventure' where each participant will place their bet based on the Player, on an axie/pokemon basis, currently YouTube is very viral promoting this Axie Infinity game, in this game each participant must have capital to be able to buy 3 Axie/pokeman at once.

The results obtained in this game are in the form of AXS tokens, one must be able to collect as many SLP points as possible and must complete quests / missions, I think this game does not lead to gambling, generally like casinos etc, since someone involved in the game Axie Infinity has to pursue missions like an adventurer, this kind of game is suitable for young people.

It is very normal that we can encounter in any game, the community always has good people and there are always spoilers, even if they are cheaters  we shouldn't bother about it

Well, I think you two have brought this conversation back to the OP's purpose  Obviously, Axie's intentions lie to a new level, it is completely different from the current basic platform. I'm not sure they'll actually do it, but if you think about it in a positive way, it's clearly a challenge where they need to invest a lot of resources. It's not something that can be done in a short time, they need more time to perfect it than quickly move on to it. But is their idea really that interesting? It's too daring!

Now the question is, if the possibilities comes over soon, which platform would be the first to add Axie Infinity on their lists.

and besides we're on the internet, no one can tell whether you are a kid or not.

[crwth]

Pretty sure as long as there is a mainstream event and involves matches, there would automatically be odds in the equation on whether or not they have past information on the player. There are already people talking about having a competition with it and give prizes in their own places. This is possible because you can play with your friends in the game and just have fun and put money on the line. That's more exciting that way.

There could be gambling involved for sure.

If there's a money involve that's gambling for sure since that's E-sport and many players will bet if they win.
We're not sure about the whole mechanics but this is actually exciting since there's a lot of good players already with AXIE and the only problem here is their server which they are already working to fix it.

Questions are, if there's already a competition in AXIE is there any gambling site that are willing to add this options to their E-sport?

[Xinarae*]

Yes you can expect to gamble at axis infinity but it requires a lot of skill it is not possible to win without knowledge of gambling. Axis Infinity has many good gambling sites and investors can easily make a profit this game is the most profitable among the participants beginning with recreation is much less risky than other gambling activities. Gamblers get a lot of benefits in terms of bonuses.

[Maus0728]

but I doubt if Axie management wants to be classified to be totally gambling sites because they are catering to all ages.

Hey! This isn't a discussion about whether Axie will become a gambling site; rather, it's a discussion about whether Axie will be included in some of the gambling site bookies that are similar to the current mainstream E-SPORTS such as Dota 2, CS:GO, Valorant, and LOL, where anyone can bet on who will win.

Questions are, if there's already a competition in AXIE is there any gambling site that are willing to add this options to their E-sport?

It depends. The popularity of Axie is still unknown in Western countries, and the majority of its players are from Southeast Asia. This could happen if Axie can solve their scalability difficulties first before expanding globally.

[smyslov]

As we all know ESports has been one of the features of Online Gambling, and recently Axie Infinity had announced the Upcoming ESports Events.

Will this be the path that might lead to Gambling?

There's a possibility that they will employ it soon if this ESports proves to be successful for players and the community, they will add more features and probably more gaming and gambling but they need an additional license for their gambling features, we never know if the management of Axi Infinity create a thread here if they add gambling features.

[Zilon]

Axie infinity has lots of fans scattered across the globe and this would also trigger gambling with reasonable odds. For sure the gambling aspect is inevitable as far as there are fans certainly there must be a gambling option. Many are already eager for the esport to begin so the can start placing their bets on their favorite player.

The system would certainly know how to match players then asign respective odds to them so as to engage their fans because gambling makes spectator more committed since the feel the have a stake in the process.

[crwth]

We're not sure about the whole mechanics but this is actually exciting since there's a lot of good players already with AXIE and the only problem here is their server which they are already working to fix it.

That's why in their recent announcement, they are going to create a dedicated server for this, to make sure there are no interruptions or any delays with what they are going to do. But since the contest that they are holding is for the "theme" or how the event will take place, then we are just here to wait for how this will go.

Once there is an event that makes this official, it wouldn't be a surprise to see if sites, especially if crypto-related websites, put this in their books. Another potential source of income.



This is exciting because I feel the events that are going to happen will be held in the Philippines (most Axie players?) lol.

As per Jihoz  latest interview they are having a  problem with Data's transferred to the server and adding in game chat would add to the problem they encountered right now, also in my opinion its not good to add that option since the chat room  will be full of toxicity as well  players  will trashtalk there enemy so this feature  is not  really good and I would  prefer the current one  where we can focus  to play the game.

We are accepting event proposals from July 15th - July 29th from community tournament organizers and will publish a schedule for the rest of the year, after approving select events.

We will review all of the event proposals submitted by August 6th, 2021 with the goal of coming up with a master schedule for the next four months.

Our team is hoping to schedule about 10 events during this four month period, with the goal of spreading the AXS across multiple regions and skill-levels.

Nothing seems to be Impossible because of the Axie Infinity popularity now ? for sure operators and capitalist are looking for every possible way to make profit. and this will also be AXIE as the world of crypto now is being shaken by this opportunity of earning .
In my country there are tons of people i know that is now engaging in this crypto game.

Real Deal Guild(RDG) and Yield Guild Gaming(YGG) conducting their own tournaments so this Esports plan is not impossible to create by the owner and as they already allocated the funds also waiting for the proposals  for sure  we can nearly see this  happening  and maybe it  will happen this year.  The  only thing we need to  see is which sportsbook will add Axie Infinity to their platform. Hopefully those trusted one will be the first to adopt since we might see a huge numbers of bettors come to bet on their favorite  player.

The game is the top-grossing NFT game lately and they're already done with the profit and that's already given to them. And that's why they're making a lot of improvements not just on the server but as well as the upcoming features that they're going to add to the game. The investors that they've partnered with has no longer any problem about the game's stability and profitability. They're now focusing more on what they're going to give to us as they are still on the Alpha stage and that means that there's more that they will add in the future. Hoping that this idea that has been brought by OP will be added by them and soon more casinos will have the interest to add it on their books.
