Awesome man, what do you think of cryptocurrencies focusing on games like Digibyte, Game Credits & BitCrystals, I would love to hear your comments.
Great topic you've got... So yeah, I actually looked at Digibyte and bought some that I was holding onto for awhile. They went to new york and gave a presentation and I think it fell short of what was needed. Their wallet for Chrome started to fall apart and well, it's sort of lingered there. I started to look at Game Credits as well as Hyper which seem to have a good following. I think if a game just picks one currency, it might alienate (pun intended) the other communities. So I want to say a game should support a few different ones. That might be a bit of a coding nightmare though, the solution might be through services like ShapeShift.io which allow fast conversions without the need to setup an account. I sold off my Digibyte coins, but I think these types of coins are important to gaming. Assets, tokens, or coins will be important to gaming in the future, that I'm convinced of.
Nice insights, I edited my post because I forgot to mention BitCrystals as they are releasing the game on September supposedly, do you think it will have some success?
