NFTs, Crypto, and the Future of Gaming | Get Geekish Podcast #183
NFTs (or non-fungible tokens) and cryptocurrencies are making their way into the gaming world primed to make a fundamental change in the way we interact with games. We discuss questions about the advent of NFTS: Ae they good? Are they bad? What the heck are they? And more in this week’s podcast.
Do you own any NFTs? After we recorded this podcast, I jumped online and made the first ever Get Geekish NFT. This one was free and easy to mint on the VeChain blockchain via ‘World of V‘. (There are numerous different platforms and marketplaces to create, buy, and sell NFTS. Here’s quick read on some of the differences among them.)
Want to get in to crypto? There are thousands of tutorials and videos on how, what, and where to get into it. Just go slowly, pay attention to details, and never ‘invest’ anything you can’t afford to lose. It can be unbelievably volatile.
Here are some of the biggest and “easiest” (in my opinion) roads to get into crypto here in the US, along my my referral links. Notice I didn’t necessarily say ‘best’, because that is totally dependent on what and how to want to buy and trade. However, you’re first lesson should be to learn the difference between exchanges, hot wallets, and cold wallets before you decide to put money into anything.
- Coinbase • Get $10 in Bitcoin when they buy or sell $100 or more.
- Crypto.com • Get $25 When You Stake for a Ruby Card or above.
- Binance.us • Not to be confused with Binance.com
Happy crypto-ing. “Hodl strong. Watch the FUD. Buy the dip. Be wary of a rug pull. Beware of shills. Don’t get rekt. Don’t FOMO too hard.”
Believe it or not, all of those phrases will start to make sense if you dive down the cryptocurrency rabbit hole.
