@sovtoshi @writingbree Indeed. I was very skeptical when it was originally pitched to us, but I am sold on it now 100%!

It really is. Mojang is being tyrannical... Hopefully nostr:npub18qujwjh7h8422xpwm02z9hpkvnzc69aw9vcfmxart0xce6ulla4syqun6s is able to find a new platform soon.

@writingbree @sovtoshi My dwarven city that I am filling with sculk mushrooms is calling your name.

@writingbree @sovtoshi We miss you! Come back to us! The egg hunt feels like FOREVER ago!

I am confused about one thing nostr:npub18qujwjh7h8422xpwm02z9hpkvnzc69aw9vcfmxart0xce6ulla4syqun6s.

Why did you need to take the weekend to process withdraw requests? Isn't it just #Bitcoin on #Lightning? Shouldn't your players have been able to just paste an invoice from any other Lightning wallet and the sats be transferred to them immediately without any manual processing?

That's the whole point of Lighting integration, right?

This is very sad news to see. We need MORE examples of integrating Lightning into gaming, not less. https://t.co/XlyyQ8ArcA

@sovtoshi I love my Sovereign Craft NFC card, despite the fact I don't have anywhere locally to use it. lol

This is why Sovereign Craft never has a need to manually "Process Withdrawals". Players' sats are always held in actual Lightning wallets outside of the game and can be withdrawn BY THE PLAYER at any time. https://t.co/DxNPL262Jf

Mojang contacted them and said they would need to do away with the "play-to-earn" functionality they have as the basis of their server by today at 12:00 EST.

Very odd.. Not sure why tagging nostr:npub18qujwjh7h8422xpwm02z9hpkvnzc69aw9vcfmxart0xce6ulla4syqun6s didn't work in the OP...

Very sad to hear that nostr:npub18qujwjh7h8422xpwm02z9hpkvnzc69aw9vcfmxart0xce6ulla4syqun6shas to leave the Minecraft platform due to Mojang's disapproval of their play-to-earn model.

I hope they are able to find an alternative platform that will work for them and their players.

We need MORE games that integrate Lightning, not less.

@mclibertyland I'm glad you made this public statement about the current state of the project, not because I asked you to make it, so I got my way, but because it is the right thing to do for anyone who is wondering why your X and discord has been silent for months.

@BradleyMcK67 @TheGuySwann They still eventually see the movie, and occasionally they decide a movie is so worth seeing now, that they don't want to wait to see it when it will cost them less money. Or they decide having a new car now is better than paying less later and dealing with their clunker.

Replying to https://twitter.com/BradleyMcK67/status/1705065148418073081:

@BradleyMcK67 @TheGuySwann Of course they can, but they will only delay it as long as the perceived value of having the new car does not outweigh the benefit of being able to buy it for less money. People make similar economic decisions to rent a movie later rather than go see it in theaters.

Replying to https://twitter.com/BradleyMcK67/status/1705013426639237609:

@BradleyMcK67 @TheGuySwann No... People are always incentivized to buy if it is a thing they actually want/need. People will always be willing to buy things they desire, even knowing it will be cheaper later, because having something they want/need now is more valuable than waiting until later.

This is the option you are looking for. If you don't have it, update to a more recent version of #Amethyst.

If you are using #Amethyst and aren't splitting your zaps with nostr:npub1gcxzte5zlkncx26j68ez60fzkvtkm9e0vrwdcvsjakxf9mu9qewqlfnj5z, what are you even doing?

I am having a blast in Sataria, for sure, even though I don't have any others regularly playing who are part of my city, yet.

It's definitely early, and the growing pains of normies not having many sats to buy things, and also not generally wanting to put in the effort to sell stuff to those who do have sats to spare, can definitely be felt.

I think it would definitely benefit from having some more Bitcoiners that are willing to throw around a few thousand sats.

Most things on the server are REALLY cheap, and the prices are entirely set by the players. We're talking fractions of a sat for most common items, because we have the ability to transact in millisats. It's the things that take work and time to gather that generally cost more. Like Obsidian is selling for around 4 sats a block right now.

9 years old is probably on the young side, even for our SMP. We homeschool our daughters as well, and the two oldest play on Sataria, but they are 15 and 13 respectively. My youngest occasionally plays on the SMP world, but she is 11, and usually doesn't build up enough stuff to feel like she lost a bunch of time and effort if she gets killed. She plays super casually.

@Bitcoinbeach Hey @TheGuySwann, there's that "hoarding" language you were talking about popping up again.

@mclibertyland @geyserfund @geyser @mclibertyland You told me via DM that the project is currently frozen, but there is absolutely ZERO communication of that on your Twitter or Discord. Your reasons for the project being frozen doesn't explain why there is no public communication from you about the project.
