Minecraft is a game that defined the sandbox survival genre.
Eight years ago, it had 6,000 players.
Today?
More than 121 million users own it, making it the second best-selling game in the history of mankind—right after Tetris.
Finding a Minecraft player who has never heard about Enjin would be a daunting task—we’ve been powering Minecraft communities since the ancient days of that creative masterpiece.
Eight years later, Enjin is home to over 19m gamers and 250,000 gaming communities—most of them being the merry bands of miners and crafters, from behemoths like Mineplex and Minecade to MMO-like giants like Dungeon Realms.
The Epic Minecraft Building Contest
It comes as no surprise that we’ve picked Minecraft as the first playground for the Enjin Coin. We envision a future where our gaming cryptocurrency and blockchain ecosystem is used everywhere from colossal servers with hundreds of thousands of players to small, whitelisted Minecraft communities.
Creativity, innovation and imagination are a core part of our company culture — so the idea of organizing a Minecraft building contest was an obvious, spontaneous and natural choice.
What better way to spread awareness about a gaming coin then to have it’s logo featured in the game itself?
The Main Prize Winners
The main prize winners were picked by user votes — and they all also received one year-long Enjin Ultimate Plan.
Rewarding Creativity
We felt that there were a couple of unique videos haven’t gained any significant amount of votes — and yet, were well-deserving to be rewarded.
We decided to pick three extra winners and reward their creativity with 500 bucks and 1000 Enjin Coins, each.
The Blocky In-Game Economies
Our Minecraft e-Commerce plugin boasts over 5 million downloads and processes millions in USD per month in virtual goods sales.
The Enjin Minecraft Plugin, Enjin Store Modules, Enjin Automations and Enjin Forum Integration will be fully integrated with the Enjin Network.
The way tens of thousands of Enjin-powered Minecraft servers sell virtual goods and gamify their communities is about to change.
The way millions of Minecraft players trade virtual goods will be disrupted — made safer, better, faster and more fun.
Virtual asset creation, lower transaction fees, zero risk of fraud, moving and trading items across servers might seem like a gamers utopia — but it’s coming to Minecraft, powered by Enjin.
A core part of our blockchain gaming ecosystem is already launched— the Enjin Wallet is out and kicking, ready to safeguard virtual items. The fact that it’s gaining a bit of attention from cryptocurrency investors is nifty, of course — we did build it with traders in mind as well.
It is the safest mobile cryptocurrency wallet in the world — for a good reason.
It will be used by millions of gamers across the world.
Minecraft integration is an important milestone for Enjin Coin — and it might seem like a big thing — yet, Notch’s masterpiece is a small step in our long journey to revolutionize the gaming industry.
Small steps lead to big leaps.
The road we’re taking will lead to Enjin Coin-powered multiverse MMOs, parallel gaming universes, and ethical blockchain-based game mechanics.
Our trek leads to cementing the Enjin Coin’s position as the Ethereum of Gaming.
The gaming coin to rule them all.
We are not alone on this adventure — thousands of cryptocurrency investors joined our crypto-odyssey into blockchain gaming spaces unknown.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank them all for their continued support. We couldn’t have asked for a better bunch of positive, engaged and helpful crypto-enthusiasts.
Stay tuned for updates — some exciting news is coming soon.
