I've started researching blockchain games. What do you all think? There's a lot of potential and people have placed value in stranger things.
Think about pros and cons, how will this branch look in a few years, or even 10 years?

Yes, that's the thing I hear most. Up until now we always must trust the server that contains our items/characters etc. If that server is gone, so are all of our things. With blockchain we actually own our stuff.

Nobody cares about your minecraft diamonds.
