Bitcoin Gaming Education with Des Dickerson (WiM290)
The "What is Money?" Show
Hacks to Make Bitcoin Like Even More Compelling Right?
Bitcoin is being used as a tool to keep people's attention through game design or mobile app design. The apps are targeting this amygdala response, says bitcoin founder and CEO Satoshi Nakamoto. "I don't really think we are evil what we're doing," he said of his use of these techniques. 'Hopefully they work and can help us spread bitcoin'
In this episode, Des Dickerson joins me to discuss the prospect of Bitcoin-based Gaming, the social impact of playing mobile games, how mobile games can popularize Bitcoin, and using human psychology to grow the gaming business.
Des Dickerson is the CEO and Co-Founder of THNDR Games. She is an Entrepreneur in Bitcoin-Based Mobile Gaming Industry.
