Linkin Park frontman Mike Shinoda talked with NFTs about how NFTs can help video game players in the long run.
Shinoda, who shared the 4-track project “ZIGGURATS”, which sold out 5,000 NFTs in minutes, used Twitter to provide a balanced view of the possibilities of NFTs in the gaming space.
“I’m surprised by the negative emotions of gamers about NFTs. Can you chat?” Shinoda started.
“Of all the applications, games are the place where * players * can benefit a lot from the blockchain. Still don’t know they have eco-friendly NFTs, let’s talk about it. Please be polite! “
A real Saturday combo. I’m amazed at the negative emotions of gamers towards NFTs. Can you chat?
Among all applications, games are where * players * can benefit a lot from the blockchain.

Later, Shinoda provided links to some related articles in his thread, “People still have NFTs over .jpg and could be skins, songs, items, movies, characters, environments. I’m learning, or the game itself. “
“Imagine taking your favorite skin from Brave, And use it Fortnite.. And since you own it, you don’t have to pay extra.Then use it in CoD, Mine Craft, Twitter, even IG ” Shinoda wrote. “”In-game items are basically just NFTs You are not allowed to sell or move the game out of the game. If I can? “
He went on to say that the current setting for buying skins means buying skins.Limited use and value as you don’t really own them.. They are stuck in the game. The possible versions are: Yours aren’t stuck. Outside the game, it’s yours. When the game is over, yours remain yours. “
He said that the NFT was “Fundamentally differentFrom “to microtransactions.”
To summarize the conversation, Shinoda said: They look at “NFTs” and think “this is another way to squeeze dollars out of us.” The winning game is not TAKE, but a game offered to the community. “
“Cryptocurrency miners have bought a lot of hardware resources and pushed up prices, which left a bad taste in people’s mouths,” he continued. “The game quality of blockchain isn’t there yet. Above all, people want it to be fun.”
Ah! Therefore, people may not explain it. The NFT does not have to be a jpg.
Imagine taking your favorite skin from Valorant and using Fortnite. And since you own it, you don’t have to pay extra. Then use it on CoD, Minecraft, and even Twitter and IG.
There are so many possibilities https://t.co/cJTA6E0z69
