“Minecraft” developer Mojang has updated its usage guidelines today, and in doing so has ended Web 3.0 tech inside thepopular game.
In an article on its website, Mojang states that NFTs create exclusion and scarcity which goes against Minecraft’s spirit. As a result, “blockchain technologies are not permitted to be integrated inside our client and server applications.”
In addition, NFT creators can’t use Minecraft assets like models and skins when creating their own digital collectibles for sale outside the game.
Despite being popular amidst a small portion of internet users, NFTs and other industries based on blockchain tech have declined considerably in recent months while attempts to incorporate NFTs into mainstream games have been met with either no interest or significant backlash from users.
