AR virtual reality Crypto game encourages users to social distance
The Covid-19 pandemic is pushing the world economy into the biggest recession since 1929, affecting all economic sectors. The advertising and marketing budget alone in 2020 is also expected to lose 3 billion USD.
In order to combat the growing pandemic, not only traditional brands but Crypto companies are also reducing prominent ads and switching to more cost-effective posts.
Cryptocurrency Industry Takes Social Responsibility
Triffic is an augmented reality game that combines real and virtual elements. Players of this game will receive virtual currency GPS tokens on the basis of accumulated points obtained when performing certain actions in real life.
Game publisher Triffic is working to encourage the player community to limit social interaction. On March 26, this startup announced on twitter that from now on, test players can collect some special household items such as toilet paper, hand sanitizer and masks, thereby contributing to the fund to fight against the Covid-19 epidemic. The company explains as follows:
Triffic has raised nearly 10,000 USD to fight the Covid-19 epidemic by donating GPS Token every time a player tests the income of toilet paper, hand sanitizer, and augmented reality masks.
Triffic told Cointelegraph that the company's business model is based on free movement and player signal income. In the current situation where many people are locked at home, the company decided to realize this idea to contribute to raising the awareness of the community. Triffic's goal is to support society while promoting the game's beta. The group also added:
Who wouldn't want to collect toilet paper instead of catching Pokemon, right?
Health authorities have recommended limiting community contact to slow the spread of Covid-19. To date, this measure has been successfully applied in China and South Korea, the first countries where the epidemic broke out.
Other companies are also taking action. Crypto Summit Asia did not reschedule but announced the event will take place online. The conference invites more than 30 speakers and each speaker has a separate page for attendees to interact.
Bitcoin plays an important role in the payment field
In the current epidemic situation, virtual money is used more and more in the field of payment. For example, the Italian bank Banco Sella has opened a Bitcoin trading service to support international money transfers.
