"A lot" is a strong word here. I don't see companies like Steam, EA, Blizzard ever talking about blockchain technology or cryptocurrency. Steam even abandoned Bitcoin payments because the fees were too high. You are showing some obscure games that no one in gaming community ever heard about and say that it's a proof of blockchain's success, but it actually shows that blockchain and crypto are light years away from mainstream adoption in gaming.

We all know that Cryptocurrency and Gaming industry fits well, these assets is already accelerating as there is an estimated 1million$ of transactions traded in these two industry in the past 7 days alone.

The blockchain technology already uses a lot in the gaming industry and tend to be stronger as the gamers support cryptocurrency. There is no doubt that the connection between the two increases the use of cryptocurrency.
Investors are interested and racing to in investing in cryptocurrency games platforms such as The Sandbox and Cryptovoxels want to buy virtual real states with this platform.

Surely the gaming industry is helping a lot when it comes to mass adoption especially in transactions, problems and issues are encountered in making a purchase from cards/debit cards also fees with just a micropayment developers find blockchain as an alternative payment or could be the solution.

Today the Gaming and cryptocurrency combined are already a trend:

Earlier this year we a new Minecraft Server, SatoshiQuest, went live. Which enables the participants to somehow treasure hunts bitcoin.


We also have Lightnight A Bitcoin-integrated battle royale game that is still under development that is close to a Fortnite clone.

They say that you could earn bitcoin by hitting other players and vice versa when other players hit you...the game balance is updating every time a player hits you or if you pick up a valuable item.

Also, some items in the game are worth bitcoin and can be pick up when other players are dead,
The game allows you to purchased using your bitcoin as a payment method,

There is great relationship between gaming industry and crytocurrency. So many gaming platform going on these day days on internet .they make deposit option of fiat and crytocurrency both.people can deposit crypto and play their favourite games.This is a great idea for a game.We are all hoping that the gaming industry will eventually adaptancy specially bitcoin and other coins for devolution of payment into their gaming industry.I am the kind of person who don't want to use fiat in gaming hence crypto would be much perfect for me. Everybody who wants to play game with crypto it is easier now these day.

That is possible too, actually the author mentioned like a battle royale game that you earn bitcoin when you hit other players, and vice versa.

This new platform, gaming, is very useful for spreading bitcoin, and is actually one way we can invite gamers that are nonbitcoin users, surely they will be interested. Not only that, bitcoin could be mainly used as a payment method or the main currency used in online games. Not bad. I am sure gamers will agree to this one.

Honestly, I am very fond of gaming thus knowing that crypto acceptance in gaming industry are now gradually increasing makes me flattered. What I am looking for is that my favorite online games will adopt as well in these kind of payment the fact it is way more convenient over fiat. Also, I am the kind of person who don't want to use fiat in gaming hence crypto would be much perfect for me.

Even before sea games happe Esports are already popular worldwide and this even having events in every parts of the world with high percentage of participants,prizes and expectants so why would whis only favor Philippines?when each people worldwide already playing this games?not unless they will accept that Philippines are dominating them in this field?So this is their losses because they are not competent in thosw games.

Well, the tandem of crypto currency and gaming industry surely is exciting since there are many gamers in different country. But I think, the bitcoin should not be use for payments only or to buy items and/or peripherals in the game. I think there should be atleast other game wherein they can get bitcoin, maybe the best is the gambling but a pvp type of game.

I know some games are developed through Blockchain but I wasn't aware that Minecraft uses Bitcoin now.
I'm not a gamer but I do play some apps sometimes and hopefully, there could be a time that we can buy some upgrades with Bitcoin as one of the payment modes as I only use Google Pay or a debit/credit card most of the time in buying upgrades.

Lightnight looks great. If the gameplay and graphics are excellent it could be a good game to promote Bitcoin imo.

I think a game where you can get Bitcoin or crypto by winning a match/session is generally a good idea. The user only needs to input their wallet address, play the game and then earn rewards. In terms of marketing, a third-party can use their marketing funds to encourage users to do some specific things, such as building a good team with the sponsor name on it.

The minecraft mod also looks great.

I agree that gamers care more about the gamer and not money, also I think it is all about entertainment and how they enjoy the game. Still having this kind of option of bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies could help in the mass adoption of cryptocurrency and blockchain technology. Gamers could also be aware of this cryptocurrency, there are investors that are also a gamer so I think having these games could be a big trend and also a big influence that could benefit both of the industry.

I remember playing Linage and getting Bitcoin for in-game achievements. Then I'd spend it all on some gaming gear. Little did I know I'd cry in my bed on Dec 2017. Now I'm a proud hodler again tho

People keep thinking gamers will automatically be into Bitcoin -- but until they figure out that gamers actually care about gaming and not money, then we'll figure out how to make crypto a bit more suited to gamers.

See, as I said before, gamers will play and earn or keep stuff in Bitcoin or Playcoin or whatevercoin, they don't care, as long as they can use it and easily. Can't really do that for BTC at the moment. A tx in gamecoin is instant.

Now if you begin speaking to gamers about their pain points. For instance, like, if they buy that rare skin or super rare item, how many have been bought? How many did the devs really release into the wild? Non-fungible tokens should solve that problem, and you can even do it with Bitcoin, but they gotta understand that first. Stop calling it tokens for example;)

I don't agree with that, but in some other way it still depends.

It depends on the person, some people uses cryptocurrency to be used in game is for their own enjoyment so not all gamers who tend to pay with cryptocurrency are addicted. For your information, using real money in the game is already adoption since it enters gaming platforms. As time goes by, the number of gamers are continuously multiplying and most of it are men. If men really want to excel at gaming, they will really try to do anything and spend a lot of money, that's when being addicted came in. But for me, I'd rather play games that is free-to-play and just spend my bitcoin cryptocurrency in a more important thing in everyday lives just like a practical person.
