Magic: the Gathering is Trying to Copy Splinterlands
Splinterlands is the pioneer in NFT collectible card gaming and launched in 2018.
Seeing the surge in NFT gaming Hasbro CEO Brian Goldner said that they are pursuing the technology and plan to apply it to his company's portfolio of games.
Magic: the Gathering may try to follow the footsteps of Splinterlands in terms of being an NFT game.
While Magic: the Gathering was originally tradable with the Magic: the Gathering Online client, the newer version of the online game, Magic: the Gathering Arena has not followed suit and limits player interactions and trading of online items.
Magic: the Gathering Arena game may look aesthetically better than Magic: the Gathering Online, but has lost its collectibility aspect as you cannot buy, sell or trade your virtual cards.
What do you think? Will the Magic: the Gathering NFT gamer succeed?

Many saw this coming. I would also bet the MTG creation team actually knows about or much of Splinterlands. I wouldnt be surprised if they do, I'd hope there would be more focus over here, but there isnt yet.
Hasbro lost its chance to be the first collectible card game NFT but it may still catch up.
I dont think Hasbro cares about being the first one. The day they release a pack theyll catch up. Unless Splinterlands becomes better known beforehand, which would be great. I also don't see a MTG NFT game being a simplier version of regular virtual or IRL MTG. They could also test the waters out with non playing NFT cards.

Thank you for your appreciation.
I just have one question if it is okay. What are these dollars you get for posting? Are they actual hive tokens? I need more tokens so i get resource credit to write more and play more Splinterlands.
