RE: I am the creator of Piggericks. Ask me Anything!

in AskMe4 years ago

Good to see you finally made it here! Thanks for posting.

My question: Do you find it easy to develop a game on the Hive blockchain?

Sort:  

So hive has some amazing advantages. I love Hive, I love that is is a blockchain that is usable.

I can't use ethereum or bitcoin other than to send money as a user, but with Hive there is a community and a way to use the thing.

As a result there are many advantages to reach out to users and interact with people.

Additionally there are free transactions. I don't know how something like splinterlands or piggericks could work without some additional layer well.

All of that is amazing.

What I miss very dearly is the ability to have smart contracts. This prevents me from building a decentralized app. Everything on hive must be centralized because there is no way to manage funds in a decentralized way.

This is a factor I hate from a development perspective.

This is why we have started to built some building blocks on Hive and on Ethereum, with something in the middle that I hope to replace more and more with decentralized system as we grow the app.

So the part of piggericks that will own stuff, is in a smart contract on ethereum, the operation of the game is on Hive.

Does this make sense?
