Today we're going to talk about if Fortnite is ever going to make our skins NFTs so we can sell
0:06
our rare skins for tens of thousands of dollars, maybe even hundreds of thousands depending on
0:12
which skin you have. Is Epic going to do this? Well let's cover a few things and we will talk
0:18
all about Epic's plans with cryptocurrency and Epic Store. First let me kind of backtrack a bit
0:24
and give you a quick idea of why I would want them to be NFTs
0:29
The main reason is I have the rarest in my eyes, which is Renegade Raider
0:34
which if they would make NFTs would sell for a lot. Now, I'm never going to sell my account or anything like that
0:41
but if Epic would allow it down the line to make them NFTs, if someone was offering $50,000 for a skin
0:48
I don't think I would be able to say no, even if it is one of my favorites
0:53
not to mention i also have the purple skull trooper which a lot of people like you know
0:58
mr savage has it so that also shows some good stuff what is nfts what is all the stuff i'm
1:04
talking about kevin smack your channel has changed again why is your channel changing it my channel
1:11
changes i don't know if you've noticed i was the first one to do clash royale tournaments live i
1:17
started that trend. That's why our channel blew up. After that, I got into Fortnite early. Obviously
1:24
I'm always looking for the next thing and I want to be ahead. And with gaming, it's the same thing
1:29
Blockchain gaming is going to be the next thing. Why? Well, because you'll be able to make money
1:36
while you play games. People call it play to earn. You play, you make money. And I mean
1:43
what's better than that? Taking your time and exchanging it for money. Or if you're done with
1:50
the game, instead of just uninstalling it and being done, what if you can sell all your items
1:55
Well, that's what NFTs are. They're called non-fungible tokens, but don't let that
2:00
scare you. Basically, all it is is a skin, a pickaxe, a wrap. It's one of those items
2:07
but it's made digitally so you can store it. And sometimes they have a cap of how many that can be made
2:15
And if that's the case, they are even more rare and people want them more
2:19
For example, if Fortnite would do it, the Minty Pickaxe is no longer around
2:25
So there is a fine amount number of Minty Pickaxes. If Epic would allow us to put it on the blockchain in our wallet
2:33
we would be able to go ahead and sell the items. now gaming is definitely changing you've seen my channel recently and you've seen me add more of
2:44
these blockchain gamings where you can spend money to make money and yes it is all a gamble
2:51
in the beginning depending on the games you go for so definitely make sure you do your own research
2:57
i'm not a financial advisor i just like to have fun i like to be ahead of things i introduced you
3:03
guys some mining on your computer back when ethereum was about 50 now one ethereum is over
3:09
four thousand dollars if you did that and you had one lying around you might want to find that and get rid of it for or just send it to me if you don want it Then I went in and started playing
3:23
OX Universe, which is one of the first blockchain play to earn games, basically an early version
3:30
And I made at least $4,000 on that game. Then it started becoming more mainstream and people
3:36
started building games in 2018 more because they saw it and now a lot of the games are coming to
3:42
fruition and starting to pop up that's why i'm starting to show games like alien world and
3:48
farsight on my channel am i gonna still show fortnite yeah i mean i still play fortnite so
3:54
of course i'll show fortnite i stream it you know multiple times a week and it's a love-hate
4:00
relationship with fortnite you know some days i love it some days i hate it but i am hooked on
4:06
the game. These newer games are more simple, however they are evolving. They're starting out
4:11
more web-based, but they're becoming more. You might have heard things like land selling for
4:17
tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars. And yeah, the metaverse is huge. The metaverse is
4:23
going to be the new thing in the future. You don't know what metaverse is. If you play Fortnite
4:28
it's basically party royale, just a little more. You got party royale, you got concerts
4:34
There'll be places to go and meet people. You know, I can see Fortnite in the future with no lobby
4:40
This is terrible for Fortnite. They need to move further, quicker, faster
4:45
They are one of the top metaverse contenders. And if they push it, they can be number one right now
4:51
They already have a lot going for them. I don't know if they're going to go that route
4:57
But if they did, what they would do is instead of dropping in this lobby
5:01
you would drop in the Party Royale. Party Royale would be your world. And you could walk around the world
5:06
You could go over to the left side. There'll be a sign saying duos
5:11
You know, you walk over there and you hang out and you talk to someone to find to play duos that's on your friends list
5:17
You can go over to here and have like a changing booth where you can show off your skins
5:22
You could have an area, AFK area, where you just walk over and you talk or hang out or watch movies on the Fortnite screen
5:30
It's going to be the metaverse. That's basically what a metaverse is. It's just there's so many different kinds. If you're a gamer, the three most popular metaverses are Fortnite, Minecraft, and Roblox. However, there are other games like Sandbox and Decentraland that are doing it more crypto based
5:49
Now they're doing well, but they're taking the crypto. They got the crypto part done and they're making the gameplay
5:57
If they would be a game that's already solid and just add the crypto part, it would crush these newer games
6:04
I really hope Fortnite does this sometime. And I'm going to tell you all about Fortnite's stance in this in a moment
6:10
Steam already said no. no blockchain games on their platform because they don't want anything in the game to be worth
6:19
money to be sold that's not what they stand for and that's fine it's not for everyone honestly i
6:25
think that gonna push steam back that will be fine for a few years but as gaming evolves they going to change their stance or they will probably fail I would think And that just how it is
6:37
What did Epic say about allowing blockchain games onto their platform? They are for it
6:44
They said if someone has a blockchain game with cryptocurrency, they can add it to the Epic store
6:50
as long as they follow all the laws and the aging restriction
6:54
Now, if you're younger and you probably, I would say, under 18
6:58
a lot of this stuff you're not going to be able to do for a while, but it's good to become familiar with it
7:04
So when the time is right, you can go ahead and jump in
7:07
if you want to play or invest or however you'd like. There are a lot of these free games which are free to play
7:14
but sometimes it does require a little bit of an investment that you can get back later
7:19
but you need something to get started now that epic said okay to that what are they talking about
7:25
with nfts would nfts be good for fortnite i think in the long run yes because if you think about it
7:32
you would be able to purchase this and you'd be able to resell it on the blockchain for
7:38
more in a year from now because say the skin stops coming out because it's a special event
7:44
then all of a sudden that becomes rare people are going to want it people join fortnite later
7:50
they're a spider-man fan and they want to get it so what's going to happen they would go on the
7:55
blockchain and buy it why would fortnite not want to do this because they want to keep giving these
8:01
skins to people and allowing them to purchase them if someone buys a skin that people don't like
8:09
and it's not popular, it could go cheaper than what is advertised on the item shop in here
8:16
I think if Fortnite did it correctly and had their own coin, the Fortnite coin or something like that
8:23
and also had a fee associated with their platform, like a gas fee of some sort
8:29
I think it would be really nice because they would still make some and they can do it
8:34
Unfortunately, at this time, Tim Sweeney has said Fortnite does not plan to change their skins and things into NFTs at this time
8:44
I think they're saying this because it's early. And because it's early, they don't want to push it forward yet
8:52
They want to see how the game goes and continue to move forward. Now, Epic is owned mainly from Tencent, and Tencent is huge
9:00
They are very intelligent, very smart, and very ahead of things. I do believe they will do this at some point
9:08
I believe the winners in the metaverse will be Fortnite and Apple personally
9:14
You're going to see Microsoft. You're going to see Facebook come out with these metaverses
9:19
Apple's going to hang back and they're going to wait to see what goes good and what goes bad
9:24
And they're going to come out with their version and just dominate. Meanwhile, Fortnite is a popular game and it's built up so much already
9:33
and they're slowly introducing new things. They've already had huge concerts and it's a lot of fun
9:39
People go in there a lot of times just to play with their friends If they don like the season they still creative and there going to be more and more modes as fortnite evolves so for now msweeney says no to blockchain with fortnite
9:52
and for nfts but he said anytime soon he didn't say forever he said anytime soon
10:01
so five years from now will i be able to sell my renegade raider for fifty thousand dollars and
10:06
then make a video saying I sold Renegade Raider for $50,000, which I predicted five years ago
10:12
I don't know, but it would be awesome if it did. I'm really excited. And you're going to see more
10:17
blockchain videos from me. It's okay if you want to watch. It's okay if you want to subscribe
10:23
I understand. Fortnite videos will still be there. I just feel Fortnite videos are overdone. It's so
10:30
saturated. I can find a video that I think is unique and put it out within four hours of figuring
10:36
it out the day of the upgrade and there'll already be eight other videos about it and i'm like what
10:42
where did all this come from there is just so much oversaturation in fortnite videos
10:48
and you know cyberpk he does an amazing job so you know a lot of people are watching him right now
10:55
they don't want other content i will still do other content as i see it if it's not covered or
11:01
if i just want to do it i just try not to check the other videos and see how many other people
11:06
are doing the same thing. But with the crypto games, I'm ahead of the curve. You know, I'm going
11:12
to show you how you can make money if you're into that kind of thing. If you're not, some of these
11:18
games are just fun to play and free with a small investment. If you want to check out one of these
11:24
I have Alien Worlds and Farsight. I'll put at the end of these. Alien Worlds is a cheap game to get
11:32
into and you can continue to earn as you play. Farsight's more of a expensive to get into and
11:39
it's a newer game that's not quite out yet. So those are the two games that I'm currently playing
11:44
plus I'm dabbling in some others and we'll see which other ones rise to the top for me
11:50
Now I want to turn the question over to you. Do you think they are going to make Fortnite skins
11:57
in the nfts one day oh man imagine if they just do like limited runs of like certain nfts certain
12:04
pickaxes like like a hundred of them just for tournaments like if you're the top three you get
12:11
this pickaxe that's on the blockchain and you own it and no one else can have it there's only three
12:17
of them next season there'll be three more so the trio that wins that season gets it and they have
12:23
it forever and they can do what they want they can sell it and make a whole lot of money or they
12:28
can flex it in the game like i did earlier with my renegade raider and my skull trooper and minty
12:35
pickaxe what are your rare cards that you would put as nfts if they would do this and try to make
12:43
some money hope you enjoyed this video i'm sure not many people made it to the end but if you did
