First of, this isn't a crypto project, this isn't crypto related at all, but I did have an epiphany and realized the gaming could bridge the world of crypto, digital currency and mass adoption together.
Nimses, to be fair, the first time I read about this, I didn't put much thought into it, I had seen it in an additional somewhere and it claimed to be a new "social app" of some sorts.
A place where you post pictures, your daily life and grow and all these are converted into a digital currency called Nims.
The first thing I actually thought about the word was "this is a play on the word Sims" which we all know is a very popular game that allows you control digital characters and give them commands Etc.
Nimses on the other hand, will give you a digital currency (NOT a cryptocurrency) every minute you use the app.
You can also refer people to gain more Nims.
The second time I would come across nimses however, was in a PewDiePie video, hence the thumbnail for this post.
According to pew and the review from Google play store, you can live a virtual life using nimses, in the course of this, you will be given a digital currency which can possibly be used in the future to do things like purchase mechs, promote content, market your products etc.
The plans that could go into this for so huge, that the Devs likely have no idea what they are doing.
If they do, big thumbs up to them. According to their explanation on their Google play store, I quote;
"In Nimses real people gain fame, success, acknowledgement, impact and power. In Nimses everyone has nims. The more nims one has, the higher status in Nimses one gets."
"Nimses is an economic and social ecosystem of the global city. After signing up, each minute you lived converts into an asset called nim. You can use your nims to post your own content, show your appreciation of others’ content, create and develop your personal brand, community or media. All your achievements add up to your nim balance. The more nims you have, the more impact you gain."
The fascinating thing is, a simple blockchain integration with say steem and they could really and easily convert their Nims to real usable currency.
I would imagine that a social game, combining the power of a virtual world, crypto Integration, social media fame and posting, gaming elements together into one giant platform.
One thing I love to say is that when it comes to the digital world, almost nothing is impossible, the integration with crypto is certainly possible, it's left to be seen how large nimses will grow.
