Trust isn't something you can ever establish in a forum environment, so there's no point trying to convince people that don't care in the first place.

That seems a weird assertion, unless somehow forums are a worse medium to use for such things than the IRC channels that I think preceded the launch of these forums?

Plenty of trust was built way back on IRC why would it be harder to do on forums?

Do you maybe think the bots nano and maybe others eventually deployed on IRC make such a bit difference in what kind of trust can grow?

Do you remember the early futires system built by that Rumanian chap who supposedly died at sea or somesuch eventually?

Seems to me quite a lot of trust managed to exist in some cases even without the full identity revelations that some used as part of how they built trust.

So I have to agree your whole approach seems rather suspect really.

All that is before getting to the big point others have harped on that once you have a game, you can talk about having it accept bitcoin, but until you actually go get your game built there really isn't anything to talk about adding the accepting of bitcoin to.

At least with my own (meta)game crypto is pretty fundamental which since ultimately all the cryptos rest upon bitcoin means bitcoin is fundamental.

(Bitcoin is actually assumed in the Galactic Milieu to be the currency of the most advanced civilisation, the Hackers, whose technology is sufficiently advanced as to most likely be "indistinguishable from magic". It is they from whom the Martians, and thence various other Milieu civilisations, got blockchain technology and it was via agents preparing the planet known as Earth to join the Milieu that the agent pseudonymously known as Satoshi introduced bitcoin to Earth...)
