if they give such notification then I'm sure axie will add the feature...

axie infinity is on the rise and has had a tremendous increase in members in just the last 2 months, Adding another feature is their obligation. even though I don't play Axie but I'm sure it will lead to gambling and that's good IMO.

Whenever there's a trend, there more likely gonna push it to Esport since the game has already earned lots of popularity right now since it is one of the first games that introduce play to earn legally. When their community is growing in some certain country there will be no doubt that someone will gonna use their influence to make it happen. You know, everyone is running to that investment opportunity. So the answer is Yes! possibly happen in the next few months or a year from now.

Hi, can someone please explain to me the whole Axie Infinity thing?

My friends told me that they actually earn real money by playing games. They mentioned that depending on the price of BTCs, they usually earn $10/day and the idea behind playing while earning is novel to me. I tried watching some videos on YouTube but it still baffles me on how the game actually works and on how the development team earns during the process.

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.

Do you have some reliable source or statical record on the age bracket for the people who are playing Axie?
Because the last time I check with the Axie Infinity TOS, it says that players below 18 years old isn't allowed to play.
So, it's not gonna be the problem on the eSport bookies If they add betting lines during Axie tournaments and someone who is underage get involved into betting. Parents must be the one who's responsible for that.
And no they're not weighing something on whether they put betting lines or not because there are kids playing, when there's supposed to be no kids playing at all.

The game requires a huge investment capital and I don't think kids can afford that.  So I doubt your statement "many youngsters" are playing Axie.

[Peanutswar]

I guess the Axie infinity community get too much hype on the people because imagine at the alpha test they already release the E-sports game, In just my opinion there's no gambling related to the axie because imagine those other games like this or other competitive similar to the axie they don't have live betting unless the platform we are using for an e-esports will support the use of this kind of event. Well in that case i guess i will try to bet too come on its axie we love strategy games.

Yes we can expect gambling on Axe infinity since it's a form of Esports and provided it's a sport then it must certainly attract fans who add value to it and as such sportsbooks would add it to their betting options. Everything boils down fans turnover since the are the key determinants of how massive their ROI would be.

Even if kids want to get involved in axie it's going to be difficult since they have to go through KYC now that most exchanges require some personal info before you can buy bitcoin. On top of that forming an axie team can be costly.

I want to say no but we'll see because esports on mobile games are only popular in certain countries and I don't know if it's just me but the esports titles that I prefer following are all on PC. If they want to have a successful esports scene then they need to maintain these type of tournaments regularly. The crucial part is how it'll be entertaining to the viewers because there are games that are fun to play as a player but as a viewer it's just too boring.

They are still on the Alpha stages of their development so I don't think that gambling will be that far fetch idea, their current roadmap with the Land Gameplay is still full of speculation and we don't know they are going to build some sort of gambling there because many speculates that Land Gameplay will feature a lot of things that many aren't sure what is it yet, we have to watch out.

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.

It is better to close the chat feature system so as to avoid closeness that is revealing the identity and that obviously minimizes the occurrence of useless conversations at all. The chat feature is not as important if it results in verbal attacks like you said before. At Axie, we prefer privacy to be kept safe and there is no over-interaction.

The popularity of this nft game was exponentially rising here in my country the craze went moon and many more people were getting interested in this game. So I wouldn't have any second thought that one of this days there will be a gambling related on this game. But somehow this is gonna be another work load for the dev team of the project but on the other hand this is gonna be a good idea I guess. As far as I know that axie infinity has age limitation on its player just hope that it is implemented rightfully.

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.

Although there are always players who are aggressive and have bad attitudes, even those who curse others, it is bad and worthy of condemnation. But I don't think it's good when you call someone trash...

I agree that the chat feature is not a very important feature, but it seems that you are thinking negatively about it, the existence of a chat system also has its advantages, it's just not necessary to do it right now

Future betting is possible but I wonder what would be the criteria of choosing Axie participants? We all know that Axis has different characteristics and there are users who successfully breed good ones.

I think the breeding and unique skills that comes out of it deserves to be discussed. Characters are like random unlike other games so it should be interesting how organizers or bookies handle this. Perhaps players will be required to reveal pet stats and skills a day or more before the match.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Among the main things that I would really like to invest one day would be AXIE Infinity, I am a very active player, and this game has a lot of demand, at least in South America it is a sensation, many people do not hesitate to invest there to be able to obtain SLP, and they have Too large a community, many players from several countries have stopped playing lukewarm, and other games that give monetary profitability to go to AXIE, and they are players who have more than 10 years of experience, and these people are hardly wrong, I think those Those who want to invest in AXIE should do so, I would also advise them to play and thus make them more secure.

Investing in AXIE and Bitcoin are the investments I would recommend the most for now.

[ChuckBuck]

First time hearing that, it's something like blockchain games right? like the cryptokitties from before? well it's nice to know that they will list it in Esports I think it's the first crypto related games that will be listed on Esports, that's a good news.

Axie is a play-to-earn game on the blockchain, didn't you know about it? If you read the comments in this article, it will be easier for you to understand it. In general, they are intending to make bets on matches on the Axie platform, this bet must be placed on other bookmakers, eg Chips.gg, Sportbet,... in short, they need mutual cooperation there, I believe it's quite difficult to do.

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

@Trainers

Hello Esports fans!

Today we are announcing that Sky Mavis is deploying a dedicated server for Axie esports while we work on scaling our primary game servers.

The server is target to be live at the end of the month, and to support this roll out, we are committing 5,000 AXS ($145,450) from the play- to-earn allocation pool in prize money for community tournaments taking place this year.


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.

Please see all of the information here:

P.S. There’s a leek inside!

Will this be the path that might lead to Gambling?

Gambling has been part of online gaming for many years now and there tend to be two forms. Those that allow trading of ingame items (see: CS:GO skins that were extremely popular, some of which cost thousands and Valve actually had to stamp down on because it was generating serious law enforcement interest through the many sites that allowed you to wager them) and also the bog standing (e)sports betting which at the heart of it comes down to a 1v1 type scenario or different teams facing off in order to win. At the highest levels it attract a lot of money with many esport tournaments now offering $1 million+ grand prizes for the ultimate winners, so naturally the stakes are high and cheating is kept reasonably under control which allows bookmakers to offer odds more fairly.

There will be sites listing PVP leaderboard statistics of players (example) which will be very useful when picking the right teams to bet on. And as the gambling feature is introduced, enthusiasts will fastly become educated about who the best players and their respective teams are by watching youtube videos of streamers who will promote this content, like any other esports games we already see on the internet. It's also important to notice players' skills aren't enough to guarantee a victory in this game, as most expensive axies have better stats, so it's also very important to be a wealthy player in Axies Infinity to be chosen by gamblers.

That’s an interesting move from Axie Infinity, eSports will definitely attract even more customers. However, I’m afraid that might be dangerous in the long term perspective.

The demand for Axies has been growing insanely for the past couple of months, and that led to the increased prices. With the announced events the demand will grow even more, and so will the prices. Can’t that result in the reduction of players in the end?

Introducing E-Sports is the first step towards this one and maybe, they’ll introduce another site where it focus only to the E-sport and gambling maybe.

There’s a higher chance for this one because it’s more fun to compete if there’s money involve and we know the community of Axie grows a lot in the past months as its hype continues and for sure many players are waiting for this.

It had been mentioned that e-sports would really be on different server which means that it wont really be overloading out or adding on the current server that it had on this moment.

Possible for gambling but its too early to say since there would be lots will really be needed to be arranged on before going into this thing.

If that's the case then we really might see some gamblers out there making side bets as there is no official betting for this yet, right?

For sure it is but for now they are still on developmental stage which we can presume out that they are prioritizing on game progress and next would be that esports which might lead into that gambling opportunities
or for side bettors.

I just recently heard out that those lag issues had been resolved out which is actually a good thing for the company and the price of their in game token had already increased too.

People wont mind much about gambling but rather be focusing  first on earning opportunity while they do play.

The team really showing how passionate they are to their game and  since the server issue  is  now been resolve by them for sure this Esports  plan is their next goal to achieve. And for sure players would really mind to bet on their known strong players since  one of the factor their is players have money to spend since  they are earning good profits in the  game itself and also we cannot  deny how  truly huge  Axie Infity is.  I projected that next  year they can be more huge as number of players keep growing everyday.
