Blockchain Games

Today I wish discus a blockchain based video game where you earn Bitcoin and collect in-game reward items, which are NFT’s or non-fungible tokens.

Earn Bitcoin

Yes in this game you can earn points, just like you would in any video game for defeating the enemy or achieving an objective. But instead of worthless points, you earn Sats or Satoshis, the smallest unit of measurement for Bitcoin!

Think of Satoshis as American Pennies, 100 of them make up a dollar. If you win enough Satoshis you have a Bitcoin!

Next, let’s talk about the unique role micro transactions and NFTs or Nifties play in the game.

Microtransactions, Sidechain & NFTs (Nifties)

Microtransactions

First, How can you win the worlds best performing asset in a video game?
The transaction fees would cost to much, right?
Well that’s a huge problems, but it’s solved by two concepts micro-transactions and a side-chain!

Sidechain

Yes, a side-chain, is a different blockchain, which can be a clone of the main chain, which allows you to control the size of transactions!

NFTs

I think everyone who has played video games has a favorite in game award like a gun, a car, an outfit, something hard to earn or rare. This is what makes them valuable in an in game sense. But in the real world they were worthless, other then bragging rights.

NFTs are cryptocurrency tokens which can be unique and made in small quantities. This creates uniqueness and scarcity, which can create value.

Plus NFTs can be tracked on a blockchain ledger, so you know who it belongs to and record every time it is sold.

Normally when you win stuff in a video game, it doesn’t really belong to you, so you can’t remove it from the game and you can’t sell it for real money. But in a blockchain based game with NFTs they belong to you.

In game wallet and Exchange

So some of you are already thinking, this is great, but to hold NFTs I need a wallet because their cryptocurrency tokens. And I would need a way to exchange or trade them for the in game currency or in this case a cryptocurrency, so I need a cryptocurrency exchange!

Yes you do need these two things, and this game has both of them! In fact it has a choice of wallets.

How do I get my Bitcoin out of the game?

You transfer it to your desktop wallet, then transfer it to your regular Bitcoin wallet or an exchange of your choice to exchange for other cryptocurrencies, or fiat.

Yep, your not dreaming, this game exists.

Who, Where, what, when, where?

The games has a single person shooter mode where you shoot Covid-19 Virus Spores and a Multiplayer mode where you shoot other players.

Additional Bitcoin can be earned by removing weapons and special clothing from defeated players, which can be sold for more Bitcoin.

How much can you win?

The players win 50-500 Satoshi amounts, which are transferred between players by micro-transaction.

When you defeat another player, you can remove their guns and clothing. Then you can collect or sell items you remove from opponents in the in-game store for Bitcoin. You can also sell weapons and clothing game rewards from other players. These are all micro transactions.

NFT or non-fungible tokens.

The in game rewards, the weapons and clothing are non-fungible tokens, which are unique and produced in varying numbers.

There are four rarity classes which determines an items total supply:

Legendary - 1 unit;
