Reminds me of 2013 Minecraft BTC servers. Good initiative especially considering the huge number of players worldwide. Wondering if and for how long will it last. It sounds and looks way more fun than the servers which paid BTC in 2013 for destroying blocks. If the game style is completely open-source, I guess more servers are going to adopt it. Let it become a Minecraft trend and Bitcoin would hit the headlines again.

This also beats the idea of navigation, exploration and treasure hunting, instead, people will just wait for the notification that someone is near on the treasure and just pk that poor player. Though, I know that there is some positive side on it though I only see developers raking huge profit on this one.
Unless the treasure is worth hunting and pk'ing, I will stay away from this kind of game system.
But, personal opinion aside, this is really cool since it will introduce crypto especially Bitcoin to millions of minecraft players.
I doubt pk'ing would be allowed. If so, all players would execute the command and basically all die instantly but 1 lucky player. The article doesn't mention anything about the way this "battle-royale" style was planned, but I guess as soon as a player gets close to the loot, the player's coordinates are revealed.
