I do not think Bitcoin is ready to scale for loads of micro payments like that at the moment. Not even Bitcoin Cash is ready for this kind of scaling. I think the closest solution will be some alternative technology or even LiteCoin. Bitcoin might be ready, when the Lightning Network is finished and activated.
You might have a look at EnjinCoin or something similar for that kind of scaling. ^smile^

i like your idea, but the main problem now with bitcoin is high transaction fees and high waiting time
I think it is actually a good idea but yeah I think it is much better if they just create games that produce bitcoin too. Or make a prize for those who completes a mission or something like that. It would give the players a boost for them for playing more of the game because they get something out of it.
not see that yet but only see some online game add bitcoin as payment to purchase in-game cash. i think some games already have their own in-game cash so it will need time to make bitcoin as payment to p2p trade items in game
For online gamers and at the same time bitcoiners, don't you think it's fun if online games will adapt bitcoin as their currencies?
MMORPG will be much fun if bitcoin will be used to purchase items/gears you're longing to acquire.
Selling items you have exerted effort to farm and you will receive btc as payment is quite exciting.
I'm referring to direct trading in the market of any MMORPG using BTC.
Um I'm nor really sure if this would a good idea or bad. It's good in the way that I would he easily able to purchase and sell in game items but then again it's bad as I might waste my BTC on in game items. MMORPG will be much fun if bitcoin will be used to purchase items/gears you're longing to acquire.

Wow, surely it will be a very good breakthrough, considering now that the game world has a prospect that is so promising, I think it's good to be realized.
Well bitcoin is actually an online gaming currency, people across the globe prefer bitcoins to buy games and in app purchase on steam by bitcoins , like CSGO and skins in the game or skins in dota ,etc:- .For trading skins people use bitcoins , using bitcoins is actually easier then credit and debit card mode of payment.
Bitcoin became the leading source of payment in steam . This acceptance on bitcoins in the online gaming world is one of the best things that happened to bitcoins.

I think that won't be necessary. Just like steam, buying items will be a lot easier using the current system but including bitcoin will make it more worst because all items will be sell when the bitcoin is to high and a lot of players will only profit from that. Players will just play to collect items to sell.
Just a thought too
Like the signature ad that I am waiting right now: HashRush. I'm kinda excited since I am game and Bitcoin lover. Anyway, there are games really where instead of purchasing other players item in fiat, you can use BTC as a mode of payment that is if your counterpart is okay with it. I can also purchase in game items easily through our leading local wallet where I can purchase shells for garena and etc.
You're purchasing shells on garena, while I use my bitcoins, aside from saving and investing, for sending balance in my steam wallet an buy some sets and items of an hero for Dota. I also want to purchase some games like PUBG but I think my PC can't handle it. It is really great to make this transactions really easy.
I think in the future they will create their own crypto and use it as propaganda. each game with your own currency

I dont think that you will be needing to use bitcoin for buying or selling anything in a game.Either use fiat or there are some ICOs that are created especially for gaming which also will help you out. But i would suggest you to use fiat only for your gaming purposes because people think that if you use crypto-currency "you are doing nothing but illegal stuff" ,but thats only one point basically the ICOs can spam you depends on which one you go for.

In-game currencies are meant to be earned via in-game methods, so people can have opportunity to earn it by playing the game. If you'll just setup some real currency like Bitcoin as the only currency of your game, you will have a boring pay-to-win game, and no one will be interested in it. Bitcoin can be used as payment method for official in-game purchases like cosmetics or services, just like Visa is used now. And it is working like that already, you can load your Steam wallet with BTC and buy Dota 2 or CS:GO items.

Trading thru real money is happening in some Online Games (under the table though, in some cases they are using paypal) , and it is true that mostly rich gamers are the ones on top, simply because they have the means and they wanted to be the strongest (which is not bad I think).
Hmmmm...how about just adding up bitcoin as an option for currency and players will be given options what they have to use - Neverwinter for example has different currencies e.g Zen, AD,.
Most Online games are really "Pay to Play" especially if you want to be geared faster.

There are already games allowing to buy game credits using bitcoin. And i see no difference with buying using fiat. But nice try.
it's a horrible idea that will make the games pay to win and take away the fun. The most effective recipe to destroy a game is to allow the user to trade the item with real money or in this case bitcoin. More people will make bot to "farm" item and the rich one can be stronger than other people.

there are actually a lot of games right now that are accepting bitcoin as a method to purchase items from them and one of this gaming platform are actually large just like the steam
We have several sites that sells in-game items with bitcoin as a payment option. You can also sell your items for bitcoin if you want, or just the in-game currency that the game has. Also, if this would be implemented, I don't think it would be 'fun' seeing that these games would be a hot target for hackers to steal the coins.
Yes, but unfortunately these tokens aren't accepted by most games online for their users to buy in-game items. Sure they call their coins as gaming tokens, but what's the value in it for game devs to start accepting them?
I do. I spend hundreds of dollars a month just for exp boosts and some exclusive items only available to paying players. I'm currently taking advantage of the price since it only is a small fraction in bitcoin.
That would be a good idea. But there are already tokens which are used for online gaming. MobileGo, steemit, gamecredits and skincoin for example. Also it's not wise to use bitcoin because of it's fee. Transaction is so expensive than the given examples.

Also i don't think someone will use their bitcoin just for online games. Bitcoin is very expensive these days.

I would not set it up like a faucet.
I think it could have some kind of success if players are able to compete against each other.
Maybe something like a tournament.
While training is free everybody who wants to participate at the tournament must pay an admission fee.
70 % of those fees are given to the top five players as a price in bitcoin.
The rest is profit for the business.

BitDice casino just started ICO and they are accepting cryptocoins. BTC, Ethereum, DOGE and more. I'ts quite interesting how blockchain gets into the gambling industry. There is my post about that company. https://golos.io/bitdice/@romanpetrush/bitcoin-captures-the-game-industry-market-bitdice
