Here's what the future of gaming looks like. I've played countless games like Diablo, Destiny, and Helldivers, all of which are loot-based games where time and effort equal rewards in the form of color-coded loot boxes (Gold = Tier 1, Purple = Tier 2, Green...etc.). Here's where it gets cool: The convergence of blockchain and gaming. Imagine every piece of loot as an NFT, hardcoded with information like how and when it was obtained, and its rarity. This extremely rare item can circulate within the publisher's ecosystem (Blizzard, EA, Ubisoft) or be sold (If permissible by the publisher) on a secondary market for real cash! A secondary market for some of these games already exists underground. If you've ever played EA Sports FUT Champs in the FC/FIFA series, you know of sites that bypass FC's in-game economy by selling FC coins and the rarest players for upwards of $700 per player. 'The global gaming market size was valued at $249.55 billion in 2022 & is anticipated to grow from $281.77 billion in 2023 to $665.77 billion by 2030' Source: https://lnkd.in/ezxjK4we In-game economies have grown to such levels that publishers are struggling to maintain control as evidenced by gamers circumventing locked-in economies. If publishers eventually embrace a more open ecosystem, royalties hardcoded on the blockchain of sales of their in-game items sold on the secondary market can be extremely lucrative. There is a commission EA FC charges every time a player is bought and sold with FC Coins but they are losing BIG in the underground marketplace. If publishers even adopt a semi-open ecosystem and allow coins to flow between their IPs such as coins purchased from NHL 24 can transfer over to FC 24 within EA's confined IPs, that would still be a move in the right direction. Incorporating blockchain in gaming is only getting started and might very well change the gaming landscape and the way games are played forever. #Gaming #Blockchain #NFT #CryptoGaming #Diablo #Destiny #Helldivers #LootBoxes #GameEconomy #FutureOfGaming #DigitalAssets #EA #Blizzard #Ubisoft #FC24 #FUTChamps #CryptoRevolution #AVAX #SOL #ETH Jor Law https://lnkd.in/e5Pttt_S

🎲 Lessons from Monopoly: Unveiling the Real World Monopoly Game 🌐💰 In the realm of childhood games, Monopoly was more than just a board game; it was a window into a world of strategy, negotiation, and financial prowess. Little did I know that those early encounters with red Motels would serve as a precursor to understanding the dynamics of real-world monopoly, especially in my journey in the USA. 🏨 From Board to Reality: The Shocking Reality of Motels in the USA As a child, the word "Motel" in the Monopoly game signified power and prosperity. Fast forward to my life in the USA, and the real-world implications of a motel's financial impact left me in awe. The correlation between the game's red-colored building and its real-world counterpart is striking. 💡 Playing with Pennies in the Real World Curiosity led me to delve deeper into the world of real-world Monopoly. What I discovered was a powerful lesson – the currency may be real, but the strategies are akin to the game board. Just as Monopoly taught us the art of strategic investment, negotiation, and risk management, the real world demands a similar skill set. 🚀 Unleashing Potential: Using Every Penny Wisely Today, I advocate for knowing the world by playing worldly games like Monopoly. The lessons learned from strategic thinking, financial management, and calculated risks in the game are directly applicable to navigating the complexities of the real-world Monopoly. Every penny is a player on this board, and using them wisely can pave the way for financial success. 🌎 Connect the Dots: Bridging Game Insights with Real-World Success As I reflect on the journey from childhood Monopoly games to navigating the financial landscape in the USA, the parallels are uncanny. Let's leverage the lessons from our favorite childhood games and infuse them into our real-world endeavors. Remember, it's not just about the roll of the dice; it's about strategic moves and making every penny count. Join me in this journey of connecting the dots between game insights and real-world success. Let's play the game of life with the wisdom gained from Monopoly, one strategic move at a time. #MonopolyLessons #RealWorldSuccess #FinancialWisdom #StrategicThinking #GameOfLife 🎲🌐💡

Traitors and Squid Games both show the same group dynamics: if you are in a competition of ostensible strategy but where you don’t always know the rules, or the rules can change without warning: this is the same as being in a pure lottery. You are at the mercy of the game. You do not know whether your tactics will help or hinder you. The same group dynamics exist in the workplace. If you can influence outcomes with certainty, it informs how you “play the game”: being political may pay off — forming and then tactically defecting on alliances, exaggerating your role on things you did do and seeking credit for things you did not — even if this risks destroying short term local relationships with people you are outcompeting. But if you can’t influence outcomes — if the rules are shifting and unclear, then this sort of gamesmanship never pays. You are better to let the river take you where it will, but build enduring and healthy relationships around you in the meantime. They might help where the river takes the whole organisation, as it will be a stronger, higher-trust group, and better prepared to react to the unexpected. In the workplace we think we know “the rules of the game”, but the game is complex, the rules are opaque, and they change has the external environment and internal personnel and management change. From where most of us sit, the “rules” may as well be random. I suspect this is what propels the experimental finding that organisations that promote people at random do no worse than those with extensive performance appraisal processes. Curiously, “the rules being random” may be a better outcome either way, if it leads to staff prioritising cooperation, collaboration, informal relationships and trust. https://lnkd.in/eQANdwW9

What if we’re living in a simulation? What if everything we see and experience is actually a fake? Could we ever know? What difference would it make? Some philosophers and computer scientists have argued that if it is possible to simulate a universe that could support life, then most living beings would in all likelihood be simulated ones. supposing that the people in a simulated universe could themselves simulate a universe with life. If anyone does it in any given universe, then all of a sudden there could be wildly more simulated universes than real ones (maybe even infinite simulated universes) and so the odds that any given person is living in the real, non-simulated universe are basically zilch. Should we all resign ourselves to the inescapable probability of our own unreality? Should we despair at the pointlessness of a probably-simulated existence? Pish posh! Who cares if we’re living in simulation? If we can think and feel, what makes any ‘reality’ in which our own existence is some facsimile any more ‘real’ or substantial? Do they have better food up in ‘real’ town? Besides if we can’t interact with whoever/whatever is simulating our universe, then could we even tell a difference? Is it even meaningful to say that this universe is ‘simulated’ or not if either way we’re confined to what we can experience within it? Perhaps a difference that makes no difference is no difference. Perhaps we shouldn’t concern ourselves with whether our experiences are ‘real’ so much as whether they are good. After all, this universe has Wednesday Night Cuttle tonight at 8:30 PM EST, and I think we can all agree, that makes it good enough for anybody.
