The video game Minecraft says no to NFTs

Mojang completely denies the benefits that NFTs can bring Minecraft:, its flagship video game, has sold more than 238 million copies. The Swedish studio issued an official press release on July 20 in response to requests for clarification from its community about multiple external projects that want to link blockchain and non-convertible tokens to this video game universe acquired by Microsoft in 2014.

Integrating NFT into Minecraft is not something we generally support or allowMojang clarifies. Therefore, it is now forbidden to use “Minecraft game content such as worlds or skins [habits d’un personnage]to make it a rare digital asset” As well as “integrate blockchain technologies into our customers’ applications and our servers.»

The game Minecraft: allows Internet users to create servers so that a specific community of players can play online in personalized virtual worlds. Mojang’s new policy aims to derail this feature. The NFTWorlds project, for example, decided to rely on technology Minecraft: create decentralized online worlds where players can buy and resell virtual items in the form of NFTs. Their prices vary according to their rarity level.

“All Minecraft players should have access to the same features (…) and with the same content, Mojang claims. gold, “NFTs can create patterns of scarcity and exclusion that go against the spirit of our game.” The studio wants to be inclusive and wants to avoid creating a divide between players who can get NFTs and those who can’t.

NFT Worlds Collection Drop:

The studio also expresses its concern about the logic of speculation that currently prevails in the universe of NFTs. “It encourages the pursuit of profit at the expense of fun, which is incompatible with the long-term enjoyment of the game.”. Swedish developers are also concerned that NFT projects created by third parties are scams or force players to buy virtual items at artificially or fraudulently inflated prices.

The first consequences of Mojang’s decision were felt quickly. The floor price of NFTWorlds NFT collection fell by 63.88%.

Nevertheless, NFT Worlds said in a tweet assuring him that he wouldn’t trade anything in his worlds Minecraft:, unless there is a risk of legal action. No content has been removed on the OpenSea sales platform as of this Thursday afternoon. Metaverse claims to be willing to collaborate with other games that reproduce the model Minecraft: if Mojang bans him from continuing his activities.
