RE: SteemMonsters Market concerns

in #steemmonsters7 years ago (edited)

🙚 ....when i say makret i mean the OFFICIAL SteemMonsters Market...i understand that there will be...let me correct myself...there IS a parallel black market in which players can trade cards without limitations...yes of course this is how the system works in everything...but when you buy or sell in the black market you take a risk to be scammed so it's up to you.... 🙘

There are, in fact, many markets for SteemMonsters, and more yet to come, and I wouldn't classify any of them as a "black market" as such. For example PeakMonsters is definitely not a "black market". Or maybe you meant the Mt Mox Monster Market on Discord? Again, not exactly a "black market" as such. You can also trade cards one-on-one via the "Gift" feature within the game (or from PeakMonsters). Is that what you're referring to as a "black market"? That feature is created and fully endorsed by the developers of the game, so again it isn't really a "black market". I'd love to know what you are referring to as this "black market" for SteemMonsters cards!

🙚 ..everyday there is a non-stop buying and selling procedure in so many goods all around the world....there is an official price sheet for every one of them though... 🙘

You may like to do a bit of research on the Free Market system, where "prices for goods and services are determined by the open market and by consumers". What you are talking about here is Price Fixing to "maintain the market conditions such that the price is maintained at a given level by controlling supply and demand". In most jurisdictions this is considered as unethical at least, and normally is also illegal. Sure, I think that is taking things a bit far for SteemMonsters, but I think that any suggestion of setting a uniform price for a single card in the game is going to receive some serious backlash from the community as a whole.
