A crypto game inspired by Monopoly is reportedly on the horizon

A crypto game inspired by Monopoly is reportedly on the horizon from Donald Trump's extended business network. The release is expected later this month.

A cryptocurrency game inspired by Monopoly is reportedly in the works from Donald Trump’s extended business network and set to release later this month.

Trump, a well-known fan of Monopoly, launched an official branded version of the board game in 1989.

Bill Zanker, a long-time Trump associate, is leading the development of the crypto game. He previously co-launched Trump’s NFT collection and TRUMP meme coin.

However, details about which blockchain the game will use are yet to be disclosed, leading to skepticism within the crypto community.

The crypto game will reportedly follow Monopoly’s mechanics, sparking speculation about potential licensing conflicts with Hasbro.

Insiders claim Zanker may try to acquire rights to Trump’s 1980s Monopoly-themed board game. However, this could prove difficult and may already be lost to the statute of limitations.

If the game closely mimics Monopoly without approval, Hasbro might take action against intellectual property infringement, even without direct branding.

The project has faced lukewarm reception, with many on crypto platforms mocking it as another “Trump family rug pull.”

Critics allege the game is designed to fleece Trump supporters and express skepticism towards its credibility, attributing it to hype.

However, some community members are cautiously interested, seeing potential for short-term speculative interest if the game is launched.

According to anonymous sources, players will earn in-game cash, presumably involving blockchain tokens, possibly even the TRUMP coin.

However, questions remain about whether players will need to buy tokens to play, if players can withdraw their in-game earnings, and the overall tokenomics of the game.

These details are yet to be announced by Trump or Zanker.

Without transparency on how the crypto game will function, it’s difficult to assess its true value or long-term potential.

It remains a bold yet controversial experiment at the intersection of crypto, gaming, and politics.
