Glad to see you're getting involved with crypto/NFTs and I'm actually shocked as well seeing how this community really moves at a snails pace when it comes to upgrades/updates. Hell this is a 20+ year old game and this server getting involved in crypto/nfts is already 90%+ ahead of other games... Life really does throw curveballs haha.
My only issue is you picked Polygon... why? You all realize they are going to rug pull this year, right? You should have went with Loopring instead of Polygon. Polygon will get rug pulled to bring in more regulation to crypto. This is all planned just like the FTX fiasco.
For people not familiar with this approach... Ben is basically creating a system where there won't be any chargebacks which is smart. Also Ben will be able to make a profit off of anyone selling their items/characters (The decentralized approach which gaming and finance need to be) on any NFT marketplace that uses the same ledger/blockchain. I'm guessing the server owners will be the ones to initially "mint" everything unless they are creating their own marketplace. Also to fight players buying and selling gold/items/characters is a losing battle.... So why not just make money on the transactions of these players?
EDIT : To add to this, besides polygon rug pulling I have other things to mention here. Polygon isn't decentralized as it's very centralized. The assets (held in a multi-sig wallet) are held by 5 people.... Not very safe. Also you really need a trustworthy Layer 2 solution and Polygon isn't a Layer 2... It's a sidechain so the security aspect of it is severely flawed. You REALLY want to use Loopring instead.
Loopring is what powers the GameStop NFT Marketplace which is the most profitable marketplace currently.

To the person you're responding to, this is what a combination of fear + ignorance looks like.Do you even know what a pyramid scheme is or how they work?
