Fans of one of the most popular and successful video games of all time now have the ability to earn Bitcoins while playing the game, thanks to a collaboration between Satlantis, a community-operated Bitcoin-themed Minecraft server, and Zebedee, a fintech and Bitcoin payments startup.

Zebedee’s team excitedly announced on their blog that they are bringing Bitcoin to Minecraft. The company, which has brought BTC rewards to a wide variety of games, thus responded to increasing player demand for the leading cryptocurrency in Minecraft.

This integration, while unofficial and not endorsed by Minecraft developer Mojang Studios, allows players to earn real Bitcoin rewards for completing quests. These rewards can be used in the game to acquire land, buy resources or equipment, as well as trade or exchange with other players on the server.

Additionally, BTC rewards can be withdrawn to the Zebedee app, where users can spend the bitcoins on the company’s gaming network or transfer them to exchanges that support the Lightning Network.

The Satlantis server brings an exciting twist to the celebrated video game by incorporating elements inspired by cryptocurrency mining. In this way, those familiar with crypto mining practices will recognize concepts such as ASIC, hash rate, block reward, and mining pool. This server works on the Java edition of Minecraft for computers.

Although the gains may be modest, they are still Bitcoin. According to Zebedee, the reward pool is filled with more than 150,000 satoshis (approximately $45) every day, of which 1 % is distributed every 10 minutes among players. A satoshi is the smallest unit of measurement for a Bitcoin; each BTC contains 100 million satoshis.

The Telegram bot Lnp2pBot, which allows you to buy and sell satoshis, the smallest measure of Bitcoin, (BTC) immediately, without identification and using the Lightning network, is growing in use and has managed to exchange more than 3 BTC in 20 days.

The lnp2pBot software, developed by the Venezuelan programmer Francisco Calderón, makes it easy to acquire bitcoins or exchange them for fiat money and has allowed the platform to obtain a new commercial record.

The developer announced through the social network Twitter “302,127,905 sats have been exchanged through lnp2pBot, a project inspired by the Bitcoin Lightning Network. (…) More than 3 BTC have changed hands without custody and without KYC from the comfort of Telegram”.

In 20 days, the platform achieved the 3BTC mark. that is, “it took a little over three weeks for 100 million satellites to move in lnp2pBot and add to the 2 BTC that was registered at the beginning of May”, while the first BTC was achieved in the month of March 214 days after the launch of the lnp2pBot.

The bot mobilizes millions of satellites

Francisco Calderón indicated that since the telegram bot was launched “the number of users and orders completed by the system has been increasing”. However, he acknowledges that the bot is currently at “a peak” or high adoption by of the users.

 According to Calderón, the number of people, as well as the large numbers, “play a determining role”, because he demonstrates the “bot’s ability to move millions of satellites”.

It is also important to take into consideration that the Bitcoin Lightning network has increased by 200 % in the last year, facilitating “fast, automatic, cheap exchanges without major limitations.”
