Blockchain the objects.
Dear development team.
I love the game and I see a lot of potential and I am surprised when constructing this game universe, for 4 devs.
I want to express my desire to be able tokenize the objects of the Vendetta (spaceships, guns) universe in a Blockchain, and be able to create collectible cards of the same.
I wait fast answer.

lol
yes lets monopolize vo.
Monetize?
Although I would buy Vendetta Monopoly. It practically designs itself, and the game pieces would be fantastic. The credit situation would be insane though - we'd have to factor in billion credit bills.

to be able tokenize in the blockchain each player would acquire that object that could be exchanged for altcoins or Bitcoin, and in the end create an economy based on an offer and demand for these objects, this would reward the developers for their hard work, and the players for your time invested in the game.
This will allow continuous development and attract new players, the creators of the game would see economic benefits after many years of developing the game.
And of course in these times any company, game, project that carries the word blockchain apparently is the center of attention.

Okay, this post was confusing the crap out of me, I've never heard of 'blockchain", so I Googled it... according to this website
https://blockgeeks.com/guides/what-is-blockchain-technology/
Blockchain is "the brainchild of a person or group of people known by the pseudonym, Satoshi Nakamoto"....the same name as the OP.
So, Satoshi, are you just here trying to promote your own product?

It is not a product that controls, it does not depend on a company or central government, it is a technology that eliminates third parties and works on trust. “The blockchain is an incorruptible digital ledger of economic transactions that can be programmed to record not just financial transactions but virtually everything of value.” and there can be many uses, from protecting intellectual property with timestamps, to being used as money, in the case of vendetta, it would be to create tokens that can be exchanged, that is if you have a Revenant ship in VO, you could have a token in the Blockchain equivalent to that Revenant, you could send it to another person, or sell it.
The idea of integrating the Blockchain to VO is that each player can get the ships, weapons, and gadgets, out of the game and can trade with them change it for USD or BTC.

oh wow, are you the real Satoshi Nakamoto??
As far as I can tell, your poorly worded suggestion is to make VO pay-to-win by allowing users to exchange items for real world money. I can assure you that is not going to happen in the near future.
This is really more Suggestions Forum content, so I'm eventually going to move this thread there.
I appreciate the enthusiasm and interest of the suggestion, but there are a lot of issues inherent in the idea.
For one thing, it still requires there to be a market of people who really want to trade these items via blockchain. That market has to have sufficient scale to potentially offset the costs of development. It's one thing if you're integrating into a larger market, pushed by someone funded (like, say, Valve with their hat trading scenario, something that has also sparked some governmental challenges for Valve). But doing it on our own is not a "build it and they will come" scenario. It's more like a risky opportunity for disaster; we are not an affluent company, our major development expenditures have to be offset by near-term revenue, or we end up collapsing like every other game studio.
The concept of blockchaining everything in the game, and rolling it all into the form of an open economy (assuming we completely leave out all the "pay to win" issues, for the sake of discussion), would be a massive time-investment in development, and it's unclear that anyone would.. want it?
Don't get me wrong, there are a number of companies trying to work blockchain into the game industry. Robot Cache, Ultra, Dmarket and others. But they're generally based on the idea of pulling together a lot of different game titles, and perhaps a lot of different content (maybe "optional" aesthetic hat-trading style stuff, maybe fundamental in-game items, it depends on the game's own design and implementation), and making it all available in a generalized marketplace to a much broader userbase and combined "market".
For us to do this kind of thing "solo" would be a huge development time-sink, to build something that our own players may not meaningfully use, and may fundamentally not want (pay-to-win), and which makes the game itself actually worse.
Using that same development time, we could instead focus on improving the actual product (the game), which would probably have a much more definitive impact on our ability to attract new users, and on making our existing players happier. That's our current plan.
And of course in these times any company, game, project that carries the word blockchain apparently is the center of attention.
Actually, that may have been true in say, 2016; but at this point trying to attract attention with the word "blockchain" tends to receive as much skepticism and eye-rolling, because of the large quantity of failed blockchain startups, and relative cash-grab attempts by people who were borderline scam artists. It's still the wild-west right now, blockchain is an intriguing concept that is still searching for meaningful applications (outside of the the cryptocurrency space).
oh wow, are you the real Satoshi Nakamoto??
It's improbable. But if so, he would be well positioned to offer a tiny fraction of his many billions in bitcoin to fund development of VO.

-the market is already there, and it is the VO players that would make the market work.
The most of the benefits of trading games platforms come from money laundering, and not from inter-player trading ( included valve ).
-You have been developing the game for 20 years, and it is something to admire. I really do not think that the main objective is to become rich with this game by developing more things, with blockchain you could sell that fraction of code that gives life to "Revenant" yes! hat code that makes up the 3D object created in Blender or 3DS.
Of course I'm not saying that Blockchain is pay to win, I say Time to win, (the most valuable time that exists) the more time spent playing would give an advantage over the others, not the dollars.
what matters is that your code can become money, and the player's time invested as well.
-The final objective would a game totally linked with the blockchain( It could take years. ) , but what I propose is to start with an emission of objects in a Bitcoin sidechain, and put them on sale with the promise that in the future they will be linked in the game.
Doing this could take less than 15 days, and believe me it is more difficult to create a web than to create a sidechain in BTC, I can offer to do this without any charge (only if the community, the company and the developer team allow me.) Only then could I do a market test, and a test on the consumers of the game and thus know if it is profitable to link the whole game to the Blockchain.
-( about the rest of the topics it is better not to discuss )
if I had that amount of money in BTC I would not use it to finance a game, I would make the world a better place by "creating something new"
the best things are born from the most risky ventures.

Now obviously I know that there is no Satoshi Nakamoto that is going to come to these forums, but I digress, the problem with any of this is will it ever pay out? I mean, I know what happened last year around this time with Bitcoin (and all the alt coins that follow), and it would seem to me that this would be a lot of effort for a small dev team for no guaranteed payout.
Investing in BTC is one thing, it made me a very happy man last year, but it is a gamble. The recent trends in Crypto overall have been on the downward, and although there is still a use for Crypto (and hopefully more of them in the future) nobody can turn around and tell me that this time next year, they will not be worth pennies again. So although I get that this is probably not a very serious suggestion - as you are probably our favourite Trump supporter - the serious response of "too much time for too little *guaranteed* profit" is probably the sensible one. Although if I was in Incarnates position I would seriously consider accepting BTC (or LTC or ETH) as a payment method, just to hold a few and see how it goes. :)

believe me is not as expensive as you think, implement this technology and make a test by issuing a certain amount of tokens does not take a lot of work or time to do, and as I said I would offer to put my resources and time to develop it.

Why is it so hard to believe the real Satoshi Nakamoto isn't visiting these forms?
Because he/she doesn't exist. Seriously though you can make credits / equipment tradable without the inefficiencies of a blockchain in a closed system like VO. You only need a blockchain in a zero-trust environment ... maybe like greyspace :)
@greenwall
He was posting as satoshi ingame already, and he couldnt even get some of the terms right. I know satoshi from the BTCtalk forum years ago (before he vanished). He communicates way differently than this guy. Also there is some lack of understanding of how a blockchain really works, which just confirms this is fake.

Yeah Xeha, Satoshi had a better hang on English than most English people. :)
