Hey guys, what would you think of building a roleplay minecraft server on top of a Blockchain with a currency. It would be a roleplay server, where you can earn currency by working inside the game, or trading items, building stuff, would be the ingame currency. This currency in a future could be exchanged with bitcoin.
I`m not an expert,but i think that you would have to ask the Minecraft creators for permission ,before implementing such crypto version of that game.Anyway,i`ve always wanted cryptocurrency mining to be more like a game and not just a bunch of complex math calcuation tasks.I like the consept of blockchain+gaming,but we would have to create a genuine game,not Minecraft.
That's completely false, you can implement this by making a mod or server without getting Mojang's permission and it has been done before.
I think there is even a server that's still online that has an in-game economy that's denominated in Bitcoin.

I think it's a great idea OP, but the server itself should be fun to play, without the Bitcoin aspect.
Hello, maybe I could create another cryptocurrency, and the 'mining process' could be finding 'gold blocks' and "mine them" in-game. But this could be very slow, I could limit the amount of gold blocks available in game, for example, 5 millon, and the the rarety to find one about 3%. But if this in the future would a normal cryptocurrency with other use cases that would be a problem, because to mine blocks you have to play, and there must always be people playing, to create new blocks and add transaction to them
I dont know if this could work, what do you think?
I think you have to be 100% sure that cheaters don't get away with using mods that can see through dirt and other blocks.
That's really a problem in general, cheaters can be detected, but I'm not sure if there is a way to be 100% sure that people aren't using hacked clients.
Haven't played Minecraft in a really long time, so don't really follow the development.
Are you planning to build your own mod or are there existing mods to incorporate Bitcoin into the in-game economy?
