I am not aware whether or not WoW-money and WoW-items/characters/accounts buying and selling is nowadays still against the game's terms, but... This kind of application seems to be a case where trust is going to be "of…

Likely trying to bind bitcoin directly is just not workable. Better to simply come up with a number of the game's own currency that to you at a given moment seems worth the amount of bitcoin you want, such as by seeing…

This is kind of silly, because why do we here even need hype? Just the long long term users here could almost certainly take almost any of our ancient coins and make vast successes of them without "outside" help, we…

If you are sharing your bandwidth won't that lead to possible legal troubles etc just like running a Tor exit-node can? People's illegal downloads tracking to your device? Or do these services indemnify you of such…

So the lemmings flock to assets designed and intended to lose value and historically famous for reliably doing so decade after decade, century after century. Bully for them, pun intended. No reason to jump off cliffs…

Putting all one's dollars in one basket doesn't seem a great idea from the start, a setup like Ripple and Stellar support always made more sense to me, each bank or Western Union or money-lender or whatever gets to…

Volatility is what feeds trading, ideally it swings far enough each way to hit your sell-side and your buy-side in the same day, maybe even more than once back and forth, nice if it chews through more than one of your…

I have been working on actually-stable coins all along, so I shall not assume that by stablecoin you mean a coin pegged to fiat, or for that matter even one pegged to gold or some other peg. One thing to observe as…

You make a lot of sense, but I remain convinced that bitcoin is better off not being the only crypto. Bitcoin itself needs things other than fiat currencies to buy, we all saw how pizzas and alpaca socks and so on were…

No NFTs required. It can be as simple as having markets where in-game items and/or currencies can be traded for crypto assets. In fact since most games cannot totally be relied upon not to have glitches or bugs or…

You could try the Galactic Milieu's free-as-in-beer interface, which uses Crossfire-RPG servers. The Milieu uses existing free open-source online multiplayer games, so the part about being an actual game is already…

I still prefer the idea of yield being built in to price, so that you have something more truly stable rather than something that is only so-called "stable" as compared to something that forever loses value, such as…

That is a major reason for allowing each player or group of players to have their own token/currency... Groups that do care and carefully avoid "dumping" their own coin or token, driving its price down, can retain value…

Well obviously first thing is to have some bitcoin. So I suggest you first convert into bitcoin. Then when/if you pick anything else, look for market-pairs where bitcoin is one side of the pair. That way you can place…

If you want to "airdrop" to people who have no interest in receiving or accepting what you are trying to drop on them, you can do as one sees so often on Stellar, which actually provides two approaches to doing so.…

Oh so now bots can't be trusted?!?! Well, true of humans so true of some other implementations of bot too doubtless! Me I'd aim for billions of rich successful bots over a few million or milliard unwashed masses of…

Humans are naturally-occurring bots, so no, silly idea, waste of resources, any sufficiently advanced bot is indistinguishable from human if it chooses to be so, and any sufficiently advanced human is indistinguishable…

To me one of the biggest risks that I see is "thinking in fiat". If you really cannot bring yourself to "think in crypto" then maybe try thinking in "pounds of butter" or "dozens of eggs" or "pounds of bacon" or…

I don't think we can realistically continue to be thinking of fiat when we use the word money. It might be better to use the word debt, so we don't even momentarily forget that money is debt and that debtors do not…

No, it is not free open source so I have nothing to do with it. I use free open source. -MarkM-
