Can We Expect Gambling on Axie Infinity?

[dunfida]

I heard about this game last week because one of my friends played it. Actually I've never tried it and I don't know exactly if this will lead to gambling with new types of games or this is just a money making game. Basically when people play games for money, then they have made the game a new gamble with their efforts and skills. This game also seems to require us to make a deposit, right?

You need a huge investment to start playing this game, unless you know someone who can offer you scholarships. I also heard about this game but I don't have that interest with kind of investment.

From where am I awareness to this game is really increasing, moving more new players to invest with their characters and start doing their quest.

You are right, aside from possible pvp gambling those players who bought this game already doing gambling with the time, though increase in numbers of interest continue to established this play to earn offer.

Play to earn is the new thing but of course you would really be needing to cash out some big amounts of money for you to start on but basing on the earning and make out some calculation

then ROI is just way too fast or does only take a couple of months which is far way more better compared to traditional investments. This game is really getting bigger and bigger as the day passed.

Upcoming events and features might be available but im not expecting that much when it comes to gambling literally.

Will this be the path that might lead to Gambling?

I'm also just looking for more details about this axie. CMIIW looks like this is NFT with gaming system ? My understanding of this axie is like an old simulation game on facebook? you must have an axie ( character egg ) buying with eth and then that axie can have stamina to fight daily and get some potion to use it or sell it again in market and can breed another egg ? i dont get it where is part of gambling on this system ? its RNG system .

i dont get it where is part of gambling on this system ? its RNG system .

Everything is quoted in the first post and you just have to read it clearly. There is no gambling within the Axie itself.

Once it will be a feature in Esports, it's possible that we can bet on it the same as Dota2, LOL, etc. That's the gambling part.

Exactly as bookmakers always go on things where they can earn and if Axie infinity will successfully launch their Esports which we know that this is a multi-million dollar industry for sure they will add this since many axie infinity players will  bet on upcoming exciting fights.

I'm excited about this to happen and I'm sure I will bet on various players which I know.

I think Axie Infinity has been very successful since apart from taking a community as large as Gamers, it proposes what they like the most: "Play to Win", this formula was quickly understood, they took a need combined with fun, The truth is that both in the Philippines and in Venezuela, this game is a success, most are looking for a scholarship, since the investment is quite large, at least you must have 1200USD to form a good team, apart from getting the 150SLP, you have a Exciting part for many that is PVP, where forces are measured by the players, I think this model will be copied by many NFT game projects, which is moving large amounts of money.

Excitement for AXS has been building for some time and recently ratcheted up a notch after the Axie ecosystem became the first nonfungible token game to surpass $1 billion in total sales on Monday.

I don't think so because as far as I know axie infinity Axie Infinity is a Pokémon-inspired blockchain-based digital pet world where players can earn tokens through games. Players can battle, collect, breed and build an empire for their pets.
and here if you look at what has been so far there have been no bets, they just play using the NFT they have and are assigned to win in order to get a reward.
I don't think this can be said in the gambling category even though from the start they made a deposit but it's not a bet

With numbers of players who already know this game, it surely bring more money to any E-Sport that will cater this game.

It's exciting since the setup is play to earn people are enjoying with that and if you'll going to add some spice and allow tournament
or PVP, sort of gambling will appear for sure.

It's up to the developers on how to integrate this to bookies surely they will not take it for granted knowing that money are flowing now with this game.

Axie Infinity in its essence is already gambling because you are investing money on it by buying pets and you will depend on their rewards called SLP to regain your investment which is not guaranteed because the market is the one that will set the price and you also need to finish the task to get your rewards when there is money and task involved it's already gambling, and there's a possibility of a drop of the price if the market cannot sustain it, or when there are massive sells.

Gambling on the essence you are risking money into a particular game but you should mind off that you can earn money out of your investment which isnt possible for gambling because it could neither directly make you
win or lose it all in an instant basis or behavior.Investment is indeed a gamble but since you could really make some consideration like studying it first if it could sustain for long term then at least you do able to
to presume that it could really give out some profits for you.On the game itself then i dont see any problems with it but if they wont able to solve out that oversupply of SLP in the market then this would really be a big
problem to them.

Wrong mindset. You invested here because there's sure money in return unlike in gambling.

Even SLP will hit a much lower market price compare to where it is currently, the ROI for new investors would just take time. But in the end, there's no way they will not hit their respective ROI.

It's like when you are buying coins. In a bear trend and you are losing the price of it, you just have to hold it for a much longer time.

As the title says, can we expect Axie infinity on gambling? Meaning some people think they could participate gambling with their own pets using the rewards to bet like SLP or the other. And yes, you are right this can't be called as gambling since it's more like a pokemon-go game and correct me if I'm wrong maybe they have some trading with skins of their pets too. And when trading involved there should be a gambling in it or let the dev decide if they want to put some skins on it to be traded.

Someone should suggest something like this or maybe steam platform in the future would put this too, i don't know but it seems like that.

Agreed, it's called investment because we're talking about return on investment at the end. What is the reason you are purchasing axies? You want to earn SLP so that you can profit in the long run. If it's gambling, you have a 50/50 chance of winning or losing money. It's not like that anymore because there's a guaranteed slp you win per day, and unlike gambling, we'll know whether we'll get our money back or not. Axie is not a gambling; for me, it is an investment, but we each have our own point of view on this.

That is actually right. Today the market is flourishing for Axie Infinity, but nobody can assure how it will be tomorrow. Many people compare Axie to Pokemon, so it is interesting to notice how Pokemon Go fever started suddenly and how it was intense. However not too long after I barely heared people talking about Pokemon Go anymore. Hypes are unpredictable and investors must be aware about this fact before investing.

Gambling is every activities which involve money investment and risks. Both are present in Axie, so with course it's gambling. I would just say it's not gambling if we are talking about players and not investors. In other words: people who are willing to play just to have fun and not exactly because they want to recover the investment.

On the other hand, if Axie is able to create a fan base that goes beyond financial gains, there is a good chance it will become a very popular esports game. This way the game receives new sources of income (sponsorship, gambling comissions, tournament taxes...) besides players' investments. That would be the ideal because to fully relies in new players' investments is very dangerous for game's sustainability.

I'm not familiar with the game, is it PvP? if yes probably it can be part of the esports betting but I'm not quite sure how does it work, more like a turn based strategy game? Maybe but I don't think it's big enough to be part of the Esports and I don't think there's a competition on the game itself.

it is like that and i made the response as i expressed in the thread, there is nothing wrong with that.
I honestly don't really follow this game because it requires a large enough capital to be a beginner there because I saw a few weeks ago to make a beginner team you have to spend around $700 and to be honest I'm getting interested but until now I still haven't do it.
apart from the existing trading as an additional feature in the game I don't know and I think this will be a good option for the dev if you want to trade with gambling because by adding this gambling feature I think it will make this game more interesting and will make you enthusiastic especially for gambling lovers.
but apart from that it is true that dev is the one who decides.

Things continue to go very well for Axie, now it is expected that it can reach $ 100, if everything goes well it is likely that it will reach it as more people continue to join, not only in Venezuela, the Philippines, but also in Argentina they have a lot of euphoria.

Key Takeaways
Axie Infinity has risen by more than 24% in the last 24 hours.
The formation of a bull flag projects a new rally towards $100.
The bullish outlook should prevail as long as AXS holds above $66.

The rise of AXIE has caused NFT volumes to skyrocket above normal, many people are entering many NFT games with the hope that they will have the same success as Axie, this has been the best for NFT games.

If this would able to sustain for this year and made out some good updates or additionals into the gameplay which do somewhat really prove out about sustainability then we could really tell that it would really increase its price in the future despite on the current situation it is in.

This is what i do able to observe on the time had Axie infinity do make out some noise in the market then lots of games that do pops out like mushrooms.

Its a bit anticipated that whenever a trend do happen there would always be some possibility of joining with the ride while there are still lots of investors been considering on putting up money
with these type of games.

This can’t be consider as an Esport of course but there’s an on-going competition in Axie where you just need to increase your MMR and if you are on the top positions, you can get a reward but again it’s not a gambling and Axie Infinity itself is not a gambling game.

There’s a lot of future updates with Axie, I didn’t see any feature about betting, maybe this can’t be possible to happen but if the team is working into something else, they should inform us.

No. It will become and consider as Esports obviously because it can consider as a form of competition as a video games like any other Esports. They even mentioned that term as part of their future plans.

About betting, why refer on that on Axie's future updates? You won't really see it in their future updates because the one that will work on that are the betting sites if ever these sites will list the Axie competition on their betting list.
