RE: New Gambling dApp on the Blockchain

in #moonsteem6 years ago

The only thing I'm afraid of is that all these games are going to end up like the EOS games did... most of them had huge hype when they launched and after a few months they all died and no one was playing them, most of the ones that had airdrops and whatnot aren't around anymore!

From my basic knowledge of programming these games aren't that hard to do, most of them are quick cashgrabs and we should be concerned with that...

Sort:  
These games AKA (Luck games _ Ponzi games) provide absolutely zero value. It's just a scammy way to get money from people without really building a valuable economy. Anyone who plays them for profit is either a retarded or has an addiction problem.

Yes, I agree, most people that play these either have too much money, too much time or have an addiction problem... I understand going to a casino because there is a sort of social aspect in it when one goes with friends, but in these games there is no social aspect, there is just pure gambling.

I can see some succeeding in the long run because some like to gamble every once in a while to satisfy their addiction, but if we get an influx of casino-like games in STEEM most will fail. There aren't enough gamblers for the amount of casino-like daps the crypto space has and is having.

But this is just my opinion of course, after seeing people on Bitmex gambling their money away without knowing anything at all about trading I'm more and more inclined to think this world is full of addicts.
