The future of gaming is Bitcoin and crypto
It’s been only a few weeks since the launch of HandCash’s new developer SDK, HandCash Connect, and the users have already started getting rewards and prizes. Specially in the mobile game Haste. It is a great example of an application that is only possible on Bitcoin (BSV) and is serving as a proof-of-concept for a powerful incentive mechanism that can be used for countless future games and other applications.
Haste is really easy to play, after starting the game the user waits for an orange circle to appear on their screen in a random position. When they see the orange circle, they press it as fast as they can. The time it takes to press the circle, measured in milliseconds (ms), is their score and the lowest score wins.

The best thing about the game is that it has a micropayments-based incentive mechanism. For initiating the game the player has to give bitcoins with different tiers available depending on the player’s risk tolerance, from less than ½ of a U.S. cent to nearly $200. After each round the payment is distributed to every player who had previously scored on the leaderboard, rewarding the highest-ranked player the highest and reducing the payout as the scores move down the leaderboard.
Actually, Haste and HandCash Connect are the implications for the future possibilities of games. Today this game and technology are not that popular but in the future when in the future bitcoins will be common then these kinds of games can go viral.
Haste is not that interesting game but if the makers will develop the game and add some sound and graphics and make it more engageable then the users will also get increased money also. The developers will also earn lots of money.

The biggest criticism of this type of game is why will people pay when they can play similar games for free. But with this bitcoin arrangement, this problem also gets solved. Today on HandCash, the ability to sign in to an application and link your Bitcoin payment method is extremely simple.
With only a few clicks you can authorize the application to connect to your wallet and it will automatically withdrawal funds as you go (you can also set a maximum spend threshold as a security feature). Not only is linking payment as simple as creating an account but creating an account is easier than the experience people are familiar with on most applications today.
Once you have your single HandCash account, you no longer need to give websites your name, email address, and phone number to create one-off accounts. Your Bitcoin wallet becomes your single sign-on, much like how people use Google sign-on today, but with added privacy and functionality like access to electronic cash.
Today people are experimenting with these kinds of technology, and in the future with games like Haste and with this kind of technology, it is the future of the gaming world.
