One of the many industries being revolutionized by blockchain technology is the video game industry. Steam now accepts Bitcoin for payments, Gamerholic and GameCredits power their game platforms with cryptocurrency, and Spells of Genesis puts trading cards on the blockchain via Counterparty.
Huntercoin takes things a step farther by completely forgoing the use of a central server, making it the first decentralized autonomous video game. The game world is stored on the Huntercoin blockchain, with commands issued to your Hunters via Huntercoin transactions on the P2P network. Players compete for newly-minted HUC dispersed around the map.
Huntercoin is a turn-based game with each turn lasting one minute (the block time). This makes for a chess-like game of cat-and-mouse, which we're going to demonstrate on the big screen for everybody to see first hand. Andrew Wagner will answer any questions, and the whole event will be moderated, livestreamed and recorded by Alex Sterk on BlockTalk.
Although the game is still simple. Andrew will discuss the latest efforts and future plans to increase playability, and outline a theoretical model for consensus-based game updates and decentralized modding on a shared ledger.

for anyone to talk about Huntercoin, the first and only decentralized autonomous video game. The entire game is on the blockchain; players interact with it via Huntercoin transactions in a competition for newly-minted HUC coins!
Having overcome many setbacks including the loss of the lead dev (RIP, Mikhail), Huntercoin has entered a new era which shall embrace mainstream adoption. See you on the Moon!
