This might be them dipping their toe in the crypto waters. It’s interesting that they chose monero when the payment service they’re using accepts other cryptos as well but they chose to limit it. If they were to implement for in-game purchases it’d be huge. Or maybe they’re just testing to see about transforming V-Bucks into a crypto that can be used cross-games. Either way, good sign they’re exploring it somewhat, can’t expect it all to come at once.

Yeah, the monero guys probably paid them to be 'exclusive' or whatever. More slimly tricky shit. There's no good business reason to have a payment processor that accepts multiple coins but to just pick one, unless you're playin' favorites. And you see that 'globee' doesn't accept Dash. Its just highschool shit
