By the way this is decentralized.

To start let us grasp the concept of what the "xaya team" is trying to present to us, "are you ready to pronounce it?"

A Decentralized High-Stakes Crypto Gaming Platform

To generalize things, just think of playing the in games, where you have to pay a entry fee,to buy a in-game ticket or to use the search button such as "clash of clans".

This concept for a gamer seems very thrilling but the sad truth is, its not free to play, sorry about that.

However this is a "crypto gaming platform"

Meaning if you have any experience in trading platforms or atleast moving crypto-currencies into wallets, heck the idea that your even in steemit should be enough accreditation to "you(the viewer)" to know the basics. If not, pls travel(click) to the fields

Welcome back! took you a while to just scroll down.

Anyway let us take a preview on how stuff is going to boil down in the end, granted none of the games are available yet(more of the reason you should be invested already). For now i will give a arbitrary example of gameplay.

Today is October,3,2018. You just paid 1-steem to compete in a ladder match.There are 32-contestants including you!If your familiar with ladder matches of 32, you would notice that there a 5-game matches in total(excluding draws and repeats).After the game has ended. The contestants whom made it to the 2nd game will be receiving 1-steem each, then the winners will win 3-each steem moving on to the semi finals which will give 4-steem each then the champion will win a extra 4-steem.

The platform |MIGHT!| take a share of the entry fee let's say 1% or heck not even at all, but to make the calculation easier let say that in the generosity of their heart they just divided it to the winners.

Overall i think the purpose of "xaya" is not to grow out of veteran traders rather to use the untapped market of gaming and moving it to crypto-currency, high-stakes gaming has already been done, in the blockchain as well such as "Steem Monsters"

To make the trading game fun, not only by chance or probability, rather by skill and internet speed. Although i am recommending that the "xaya team" create a faucet like function, where people will be given a chance to participate, the counter flow mechanism to this is that the withdraw threshold is high enough to not allow people from cashing out just by faucet alone.

But what catches my attention the most is how busy the nodes and blockchains will be, just think of the hashrate in mining.

Putting that aside the roadmap in expansion also plans to expand in many themes of gaming and changing the overall gameplay mechanics, such as

Real time strategy games, or just multiplier games.

Turn base games,(Cryptomon)

MMORPG

And more!

Now lets get to my favorite part, Mining!

-To start off, unlike trading, gaming requires more computing power, the solution to this is using a third party service provider

My only advice is that they add a faucet like function

That's all thank you for reading!
