Metaverse x Gambling

[finaleshot2016]

As I said, I highly doubt that people will accept Metaverses at this stage.

It's way too early. The infrastructure around a lot of these metaverses are incomplete and game mechanics are too complex to understand properly.

Will you bother to learn so much about a metaverse just to bet $5? Or would you just put $5 on roulette on Roobet...

The same thing was once said about computers, the Internet, and e-commerce. But today these technologies are no surprise, because we use them every day. Metaverse will not be limited to one thing as for example gambling but will give users a wide range of entertainment and leisure. Take a look at how many users congregate in The Sandbox every day and you'll see the future. Rumor has it that Mark Zuckerberg is developing his own metaverse. I don't think he's going to invest his money in unpromising projects.

As long as the idea would benefit others, it is OK. The issue here is that some individuals have a difficult time accepting new technologies since they prefer the traditional way. They are not open to new ideas and continue to undervalue such fresh meta in this industry. If these people are not interested in these new innovations, then claiming that they are worthless is nonsensical because you are only presenting your own personal opinion while overlooking other people's positive interest in this innovation.

Innovation and progress cant really be avoided or an inevitable thing and of course each people do have different impressions and views thats why we cant really force them on what we do want for them to be.

For now then it would still act up for people to observe whether they would be considering it or would stick out on traditional things that we've been used to.

We do have our own choice and preference thats why it isnt surprising these kind of views.

@OP, why not? NFTs are everywhere in talks nowadays and I believe that this will cause a huge expedition to take place in the world of NFTs and bring a new revolution. I was also thinking about this that some well-known players buy high quality 3D NFTs which can be used in a game that allows those NFTs to move. Games like virtual football, tennis, cricket and all where gamblers can predict the winners as well as scores same as we do in sportbooks and gamble their money. I hope this too becomes a reality very soon.

You are right and I think NFT talks will be up here for the long term. The trend is different compare to what we see in ICO and DEFI on which only lasted several months until they are now totally forgotten. NFT related games with the touch crypto are now in trend and almost a new game can already hit lots of players as long as it was seen good in development.

Many felt that this is something that is worth checking or waiting for, and I think that with a little effort from the community this will also attract more participants who will invest and this might skyrocket anytime in the near future. As the world of gambling has a very wide range of participants especially those who also participate in cryptocurrency, plus the excitement that NFT brings to the community, then there is a big chance that this will hit off and new projects will arise.

But looking at the perspective that many will be attracted to it, there will be the common investors and players that will be into it due to the hype.

Still, it will have those real players that are really into the game and hooked with it.

You should wait for someone to have full details and explanation about the games, not those who promote it in youtube where those influencers are also their investors. Just like these few months ago where the NFT games are popular and there are lots of investors who are attracted to it until they know the full intentions of the developers where most of them are only finding opportunities to rug pull and let the new investors suffer. These guys just let you invest in their games without conscience you might think that you get some high amount of cash but in reality, you only wasting your time and money especially when you invested late into the game.

Well we shouldn't rely on the details given of another person, although its quite helpful since we can make it as a basis but we also need to do our own research to find out if the given feedback about that give is true or not but even if how good the project we are going in we should never go all in since we never know when they will do a rug pull and for this compounding is much better so that we will not get huge damage once dev starting to pull out unto their project.

You are right and it's risky. There are lots of games that are considered rug pull now after having a good run on their early days. Research can't save us but at least we can know if we are in the right project by following deeply their development and how they are approaching any questions from the community.

The same as how we choose other coins, research should be done seriously.

It can create a new opportunity and if you can create good contents for Metaverse you will attract game lovers and there is no doubt about that. The most important aspect should be, the price in which you are spending to play should be minimum. I am not going to pay $10 every time i play, we just need to rethink that and if there is a good game and if it is fair with the amount of money you spend then it can be a success and in the future expect more companies to experiment in that aspect.

TBH, DeFi had limited usage where only staking, pools and loans were mostly considered, but with the amount of scams that took place in the name of DeFi, it was easy for the NFT market to take off and make its way to the moon by having some real games available to its players for playing. To me, NFTs are a huge gamble but with huge benefits to the early birds, so till this market matures, you have extreme possibilities available to make good amount of money by using metaverse in your advantage. Gaming and gambling industry both will see a huge spike because gamers love to play and when they will gain through the latest P2E games, why won't they invest some bucks while getting huge returns?

Do you think NFT market has less scams? It's just that these scams are not unfolded yet. It's a money laundering heaven in reality and I wouldn't get shocked if we discover that NFT was originally formulated for money laundering only!

NFT games are no less here! I havebeen playing few NFT games since last few months and I found that it's quite easy to launder money using NFT games as well. Otherwise a digital piece of ahit wouldn't have sold for millions.

Lol, I agree with you but partially, so let me FTFY here. NFTs are "a part" of a money laundering heaven we call as "cryptocurrencies", and I need not to prove that if a person wants to, he/she can easily ditch these agencies and quietly transact under their nose without even giving them a hint. I mean, if you're calling out almost everything a scam here, then the root cause will come out to be cryptocurrencies itself behind all this, right?

Yeah, even I used to think the way you do when I saw that NFT selling for millions, but hey, he was from our own country India who spent those millions on that NFT and also gave an interview (which means he went public and didn't remain anonymous), where's money laundering here? Anyways, even if it's a way to launder money, I believe this is helping some people who live in a class between poor and middle class, a class you can't justify as poor or middle class because these people have the basic things available but still can't live an easy life and NFTs are giving them a chance through various ways like IGOs and IDOs (of their gaming or whatever platforms), staking them, trading them, etc.

You're right, both in terms of the Metaverse program and with the current mix of NFT, Games and hype that is hard to categorize individually. As long as the Metaverse has its market they can trade and take profit means they are operating in the market they should be. Play to Earn is indeed in the spotlight to include many types of gambling, but so far it still doesn't really show how the two have a fairly transparent relationship.

[DarkDays]

Who else thinks that these kind of thing may hit mainstream sooner or later? I don't know if this is something new but seen a  news from Decentral Games that they are launching a play-to-earn Metaverse poker. Others predict next to NFTs boom that it could the the Metaverse hype. Any thoughts?

To me this theory is more than just a theory and the way I see it with so many play-to-earn games, Metaverse could soon become a real competitor to online gaming.

The range of activities available in Metaverses just keeps on adding up with social aspects, employment prospective and in-game earning as well as collectables.

Sure there's some aspects of this present in casinos but this will be the next thing... Do you lot think otherwise, it would be nice to hear your opinions.

Fair, but that doesn't mean that there won't be a market for it. I'd reckon it would have its own fair share of the market if done well, after all, anything would become popular as long as the core concept is followed and the idea itself was executed properly. Besides, it's a step towards something, I'd rather test something that would give me something new rather than stay still, not that I'm saying that the current idea of putting the $5 on the roulette is bad, but rather since we're looking for something new, why not try it out no?

there are stages of acceptance, let's say
so people won't enter the metaverse to gamble 5 usd, probably
but at first will enter for other reasons and then find out that there's also gambling and develop from there

have you seen the adoption curve for technologies?
we're still early for bitcoin but have left first stages
metaverse technologies are way earlier

Metaverse is well linked to NTFs and crypto in general. I think that there are many complementary technologies that can make on-line gaming a much more enjoyable experience, for example mixing "second life" style metaverses with competition for NFT that can potentially be traded and all that with a number of casino and ability games imbedded into the metaverse. This looks a bit futuristic, but I think we are heading there.

yes, we are definitely going this way
add play to earn to the mix
NFTs changed everything in terms of ownership of unique digital assets
curious to see how this will develop

there's also the theme of interoperability between metaverses, we're gonna have many different worlds but having ways to travel seamlessly between then is also something to pay attention too, integration of differences metaverses forming a multiverse

Nfts are already on-trend now. The entertainment that they provide as well as the huge profit that players could earn hooked lots of people. More NFT games are now building up a good foundation and their number is too surprising. Even gamblers have switched to it especially those who are seeking enjoyment while earning.

There's no doubt if items in popular games like Dota 2 and Pokemons were to become NFTs, the world of metaverse will insanely increase and will create another huge hype that will make the gaming industry reach the top again. But right now, all we have are a few legit games and more games are fraud especially those who don't have any stories just to click and hit for money. Cryptoblade and other NFT games like it.

There could be hype at the start which is the basics of any game. But in the long run, they won't be the same and a lot of changes will be made by the developers to experiment and sustain the game itself.

But right now, all we have are a few legit games and more games are fraud especially those who don't have any stories just to click and hit for money. Cryptoblade and other NFT games like it.

And that's why everyone who has an experience with those hit and miss NFT games will be careful and those peak investors too. They'll do their research first and won't buy because of the hype.

Hard to make out some integrations of NFT trend to be adopted and applied into those traditional or famous games at the moment and also Steam had banned out blockchain games

Which means that there would really be still blockage in overall adoption and recognition.

I have read one article talking about metaverse and one of the person who have the interest about this new feature is Mark Zuckerberg, this man has a huge imagination about metaverse and wanted people to see the Facebook platform from primarily a social media company to a Metaverse company. Reading the article made me realize the big opportunity that it can be in the future and maybe this would be a great platform too to combine in gambling industry, well I just think about it though.

Please don't. I'd rather the NFT market create their own unique stylized game rather than these old games of ours to adopt the NFT system to what they have right now. Don't get me wrong, I'm not against NFT games and have been playing it for quite some time now, but I'd really rather have a unique system in itself so that I can actually be pretty hyped to enjoy the game. Plus, I don't think the system of a MOBA would apply itself well to NFT types, Pokemon maybe but Dota? I don't tihnk so.
