If the coins reach 10k that’s ****ing huge. But either way, the value will increase once people actually start using them. as of right now, nobody is using crypto for anything yet. You cant get your pay checks in it.
I dont know why you keep telling ME to blow your mind in a thread marked as a request where all I am doing is saying why it would be a good idea.
In your world it seems like you are still stuck using candles to light your log cabin in the woods. This is you with an old man voice “En muh deh people dint wan no digital money. Gold is teh only thing dat holds value.”
Hey let me sell you this stat tracking Factory new Dragon Lore for 5 grand though! Know what, nah, lets just pretend this kind of stuff hasnt been a thing for the last 15+ years.
Naah nothing to see here folks. No way to capitalize on that!
Looking over what stripe is its actually a bit harder to answer that question. Thing thing about digital money is the ease of transactions without the need of a third party to do anything. In a game setting you can have full control over a wallet, track if transactions go through and have it be literally as seamless as buying or selling items on the auction house of an MMO.
When dealing with banks, fiat currency and such you have many more hurdles as well as the need for a third party to do anything.
I urge you not to make a game where players can earn items and sell them for real money.
This usually ends very badly for the game, where most of the player base actually aren’t even human anymore.
Take the RMAH (real money auction house) in Diablo III as an example of this…
Blizzard eventually had to shut it down because they realized that nobody was actually playing the game anymore.
It was just a bunch of bots, utilizing advanced algorithms to try and turn a profit.
And a lot of these bots can (potentially) eat up bandwidth faster than most human players can, resulting in company money going into either supporting or trying to detect & ban these bots.
And all talk of botting aside, there will be an even worse group of human beings who will continuously attempt to scam other genuine players, which could easily become a liability issue for the company.
Of course, that’s not to say that you won’t turn some sort of profit with this business plan.
As a matter of fact, if the game itself is good enough, I’m pretty sure you will.
But it really does become more of a headache in the long run.
