Minecraft Says no to NFTs because they Cause'scarcity And Exclusion'

Minecraft players Minecraft won't be able to purchase in-game content such as worlds, persona items, skins and other mods with NFTs.



Minecraft the most popular video game ever, won't play with NFTs. They "create a scenario where the haves and have-nots".



In a shrewdly worded blog post on the Minecraft website yesterday (20 July), developer Mojang Studios said that the inclusion of NFTs would go against the game's values.



"NFTs and other blockchain technologies create digital ownership that is based on scarcity and exclusion which is not in line with Minecraft values of creativity, inclusion and playing with others," the company wrote.



"The investment and speculative pricing mindset around NFTs takes the focus away from the game and encourages profiteering, which is incompatible with the long-term happiness and success of our players."



Minecraft said the statement was in response to feedback from members of the community who wanted clarifications on the studio's position regarding NFTs and blockchain.



This means that Minecraft unlike other virtual world games will not allow blockchain integrations in the server or client applications. NFTs cannot be used in-game for content like skins, worlds, and other items, in addition to other mods.



Mojang, a Microsoft-owned company It also said it was concerned about third-party NFTs. These NFTs could be unreliable and end up costing players who buy them. It mentioned scenarios in which third-party NFT managers could "disappear suddenly" or NFTs could "be sold at artificially or fraudulently high prices".



"We acknowledge that the creation of our game has intrinsic worth and we strive for an environment where these values are acknowledged."



Online gaming has seen an increase in interest in blockchain technologies like NFTs. This topic was also discussed at Future Human earlier in the year.



GameStop and other companies have also expressed their confidence in NFTs and launched its own NFT marketplace.



Other companies aren't yet going all-in. EA's CEO previously said blockchain and NFTs could be the future of gaming, however, he added: "Right now, it's not something we're fighting to the wall".
