As the title says, can we expect Axie infinity on gambling? Meaning some people think they could participate gambling with their own pets using the rewards to bet like SLP or the other. And yes, you are right this can't be called as gambling since it's more like a pokemon-go game and correct me if I'm wrong maybe they have some trading with skins of their pets too. And when trading involved there should be a gambling in it or let the dev decide if they want to put some skins on it to be traded.
Someone should suggest something like this or maybe steam platform in the future would put this too, i don't know but it seems like that.
I honestly don't really follow this game because it requires a large enough capital to be a beginner there because I saw a few weeks ago to make a beginner team you have to spend around $700 and to be honest I'm getting interested but until now I still haven't do it.
apart from the existing trading as an additional feature in the game I don't know and I think this will be a good option for the dev if you want to trade with gambling because by adding this gambling feature I think it will make this game more interesting and will make you enthusiastic especially for gambling lovers.
but apart from that it is true that dev is the one who decides.
