@artur0castro@EAThomson @Jam10o @wheresaddie@auriea@CNNBusiness@guardian@MSFTGarage@genekogan Some benefits: 1) You can have predetermined rules that cannot be changed easily (like in bitcoin). If community disagrees on changes, two new communities can arise (forking). 2) Your character is yours and is governed by the rules, the developer cannot just delete it.
We are back! with a new decentralised #blockchaingame using #ethereum!
We just released a blog post about it : https://t.co/wNqGg0wMbU
you can register for the alpha on the game website : https://t.co/82WZkNYXv7
What's also impressive is that the Ethereum community seem to be greatly enthusiastic about Dark Forest, which is one of the very few games aiming to be fully decentralized.
1/5: A new #ethereum@gitcoin grants round is coming up soon and I have some concerns
I took a quick look at the grants and noticed few projects there that are either already (VC) funded, have had or will have a token/governance sale or are even not open source
Is that okay?🤔
@EAThomson If the game would have big reserves for a stable currency with a very good sink, you could have the game to issue stable currency eg. when you kill monsters and then players would return it back to the game via some powerful moneysinks. That would be something!
@EAThomson I think you should have multiple currencies. One that floats and one that is stable. As otherwise the game cannot really print more currency. Optimally you could print and burn currency in the same amounts (money sinks and sources).
#darkforest is a 4x game on ethereum. There's one hour until the beta test universe cools. After 4 days of 'mining' fog of war on my poor little laptop I didn't even see 1/50th of the (expanding) universe. I could see this being a completely open source, scriptable Eve online.
Thanks @ethereum for the #decentralized social media prize! We had lots of fun building "Blue Coati", a censorship resistant system that allow for off-chain decentralised filtering (like @VitalikButerin mentions here: https://t.co/nJtQ7LZ9jC)
Thanks @ETHGlobal and #HackFS !
