VCOIN, the transferable digital currency that allows IMVU users to buy, gift, hold, earn and convert earnings to real money for the real world, today announced that it has joined the Blockchain Game Alliance, an organization committed to promoting blockchain within the game industry. As a member of the BGA, VCOIN will join various other blockchain and gaming companies such as The Sandbox, Enjin, Animoca Brands and Dapper Labs to do just this.
“VCOIN is doing something new, something that you don’t see too often in either industry and we are excited to share this with the BGA community,” said John Burris, Chief Strategy Officer, IMVU. “ VCOIN is a literal bridge between both the blockchain and gaming industries, as a crypto token for the metaverse.”
“The BGA is proud to have VCOIN among its ranks as an active member contributing to our mission of raising awareness and accelerating adoption of blockchain technology in the gaming world. We look forward to supporting them on future projects and events and hope they will be paving the way for more gaming studios to cross that bridge,” said Sebastien Borget, President, Blockchain Games Alliance.
