My text might have been a lot more confusing considering my example of the gaming-currency being "Steems". But yeah, building up a new token either through Ethereum (although I would prefer the Graphene blockchain - hence why I was referring to BTS), but the idea was to have all games/messages/friendlists/ that is related to the gaming platform built on a different block-chain so the funding and transparency of the project remain intact.
There is so much potential available to us and I'm sure with growth it will slowly start building up quicker. I am not too technical myself either so I can't really see the challenges or how to start it all off a head of me, but to just start something basic already for users who are on the platform and looking to do something else than read blogposts after a while. This could be the gaming section of Steemit, while with its funding and Steemits growth together could become even bigger and evolve further into decentralized games. Even adding Spells of Genesis to the sidebar of Steemit would already be a great start.
Imagine having E-Sports teams sponsored by Steemit, or even our own world cup in game X that our own developers created and became popular because (guess what, yes it pays you to play)
This could maybe also just be built on top of our Steem's block-chain, I am not sure how scale-able it is currently.
I know this may all come off pretty philosophic or far fetched, but nothing is impossible with block-chain, and things tend to go pretty quickly forward in the crypto-scene lately. :)
Count me in as a tester lol. Seriously though I see massive potential for cryptos potentially steem influencing the gaming industry. Why play that game when I can play this one and gain real money... I truly believe the gaming industry could transform.
