Just love this topic. I learned early on from taking some distance education computer courses that developers use games to test the viability of new software technology and development. Just consider how graphics cards were repurposed for Bitcoin mining. There's a lot of power that's required in online gaming. This is why I'm so invested in crypto gaming. If we can get something to work amongst gamers, the use case for the business world will have likely been proven.

Prospectors is really nice example because they are building bridges between different blockchains. If you are not part of the prospectors world, please use my referral links and I'll help you along. There is a big expansion coming in the next week or so.

In terms of Splinterlands, I wonder what's going to come out of the Steemit and Hive feuds. In any regard, it's a solid game with a lot of players behind it. As it stands now the fiat world probably knows this game the best of all crypto.
