Nội dung chi tiết

Giới thiệu về  Richard và dự án Cocos

Cocos-BCX is the blockchain game engine of Cocos 2dx. We aim to provide a full-stack dev platform for developers to make blockchain games and asset easier. Our afflicate Cocos 2dx is the larget open-source game engine by application and community. It has 1.3 million regiestered developers world-wide. Many interesting games such as Badlands, some episodes of Angry Birds were made with Cocos2d-x

And for myself. I worked for 15 years in Internet social network and macro investments. Since I study social behavioral economics, I believe decentralization in game makes sense, and decided to join my teammates on Cocos-BCX.

Phần 1: Richie hỏi Richard 5 câu hỏi về dự án Cocos

Câu 1: What’s unique about Cocos compared to other game chain?

Well. We now focus on the specifications required for game dev only. (1) we are buidling a full-blown, dpos based system using featrues such as light nodes and segmented task handling to provide a fast operation envionment. (2) we try to lower the entry bar of NFT economy in games by introducing the ideas such as world-view asset property, Smithy (asset production & modification) and asset collateral/pledge mechanisms. (3) our blockchain system supports multiple proofs of utility including staking & gas, which we believe will support more flexible revenue models for the developers.
to be a bit formal, we try to flatten the learning curve of building blockchain games flatter.

Câu 2: Why do you think you can outperform other chains?

yeah. we think gaming is a big market and for many. and it’s better to mobilize and work with everyone instead of competing. we are trying to (1) hold on to the long-term develoeprs’ needs and provide the tools step-by-step. Things take time. (2) build an open eco to support as many systems/protocols/features as we can to make the market big together.

And (3) in our day-to day operation, we try to stick to the essential ideas of an open-source tech community, that is to create opportunities for everyone to get involved. For example, we would rather fly a BCX developer to a conference to talk about her/his first-hand experience than we go to “promote” ourselves. Or we prefer funding a local chapter of developers than sponsoring cocktail parties. Cocos-BCX can only be great if everyone has her/his own exposure and opinion on it. And that’s what we will do.

Câu 3: What’s the current status of the project development?

we started in late 2017. our past milstones were either on time or ahead of time. in Q4 2019 we are launching our Mainnet. more details can be found at Binance Research

and we definitely welcome any community friends to reach out to us for cooperation.

Câu 4: What’s your plan to drive mainstream adoption?

oh, we ask ourselves all the time. the best answer may be identifying the mainstream use cases and obstacles in different stages.

in the short term, most developers don’t know why and how to make blockchain games. our immediate mission is to provide tech tools as ready-to-use as possilbe to get them trying.

in the long run, we will have to incorporate adnvanced features to support complicated in-game economy paradiyms, i.e. the point of applying decentralization.

we are quite active in tech & product partnership from operational point of view, but still believe the real adoption will only come when the value proposition is more clear.

Do you have any ETA or visions on this? (question not related to this Segment, but really had to ask)

inside our team we think more institutional producers will realize the value of blockchain gaming. for example, many leading Japanese producers are gathering regularly to study blockchain tech

organized by our representative in JP, so we know. The idea of blockchain game has advanced substantially compared to 12 months ago.

Câu 5: Many noticed the announcement in August about Huawei & Cocos partnership established. Any other major partners you have established?

Ok. Cocos is our afflicated team. They have long-term partnership with established Internet and gaming companies, such as Huawei, Goolge, Facebook and Tencent.

Cocos-BCX is working on teamming up with blockchain community. for example, we announced the cooperation with Celer today.

there are much synergy between Cocos and Cocos-BCX. we will definitely share the access to these partners.

How does your cocos chain deal with the issues of scalability, security and interoperability and speed and privacy?

Explain the UTILITY OF cocos within the ecosystem, what’s the real life use case and application of cocos

Trả lời: in short, we think gaming economy remains, but the demand of digital assets is always there, unsatisfied. Magic the Gatherng type of games, for example, are perfrect use cases for blockchain games.

Câu 3: I think you guys are doing very well! I just have a question related to the financial situation: Considering the bear market that has now lasted for some time, and might continue to do so for even longer; how is the company doing in terms of funding to be able to keep up the development of the product and introduce new partnerships for years to come?

Trả lời: thank you. we raised a meaningful amout of funding from private investors that is enough for us to operate for many years.

Câu 4: What do you think Blockchain will bring to the Game industry? What has Cocos done and will do to bring traditional game developers into the blockchain space?

Love to talk more. but please check the Eco section of our WP. we have detailed discussion there.

Câu 5: What do you see cocos at 2024?

Good question. We hope blockchain gaming will become a well-accpeted business model, and takes a due percentage in the US 130 billion annual gaming market

Câu 6: Q: A bulk majority of any crypto community’s key focus is on the price of the token. When prices rise, community rejoice and grows, when fall, many people start throwing negativity. How is Cocos-BCX going to address the issue of negativity when prices fall? What are your plans to strengthen and grow the community to persuade more individuals to look at the product rather than just the price?

good question. our answer is we do not intervene. we believe the point of blockchain is to give the power back to people. it means they will question, hesitate, quit or join. all we need to hold up to is to create value, and give the audience enough time to judge us and form their own opinion.

Câu 7:

Q:1 What’s the Algorithms which are used by cocos for fast and scalable transactions ?

2.There are already many Projects which works on scalability with Both Layer-1 and Layer-2 solution ! So, why cocos would be Best choice ?

Trả lời: We never claim ourselves to be the BEST chain, but we may be the most adaptive one for gaming. our architecture is designed to faciliate game needs. for example, dpos is usually considered less secure. but in most of the games, players only spend little money, but want fast program execution. so we use dpos for now.

Câu 8:

What the challenges faced by cocos team?
And what are your ways of tackling them?

What is the difference between COCOS and COCOS-BCX?

Thank you for bringing this out. although with previous experience in supporting mobile game 10 years ago, we cannot change the whole industry at a flip. so we need to take a progressive approach and solve the issues one-by-one. it takes time.

Câu 9: Can blockchain games enter the mainstream game market, or be limited to gambling games?

good quesition. certain genres are perfect for blockchain. typical ones including (1) items with long-term value: cards, collectables, items transferrable among the same “world-view” (2) fair random numbers: gambling, pop-ups. we estimate 30% of the whole market (US 130 billion) are good for blockchain games.
