Galactic Hub Created An In-Game Cryptocurrency
No Man’s Sky is one of the greatest games ever created in terms of vastness. The game was seen as a failure in the beginning as it was rejected by gamers. They claimed that it is not what they desire. Then some years later, a community dubbed ‘Galactic Hub’ emerged to show that the game is worth it, and attracted users afterwards.
In recent news, the Galactic Hub community has created a cryptocurrency. Well, don’t get too excited, this digital asset is meant for No Man’s Sky only, and does not possess any real world value. The coin is called Hub Coin, was created for the community members, and can be used to acquire in-game assets.
Users or the community members can earn the coin through rewards associated with the Galactic Hub community activities. There’s a monthly distribution protocol to receive the crypto, where players need to register and take part in activities like making posts in subreddit of Galactic Hub, utilizing hashtags on platforms like Twitter and other activities. Players can spend it in the game but it is useless in real life.
In short, it can prove fruitful in game but not IRL.
