I do not understand, why should someone buy bananas?
Can somebody explain?

If the game becomes popular, the people who bought in early will make a profit. If it doesn't become popular and the price of the bananas drops, people who bought in early will lose money. Since Steam has a closed economy, the only winner regardless of the outcome is Valve.
It's already the third most played game. Risky bet to say it'll get even more popular lol
For now it's been very profitable for me, and if it's good for me it's also good for Valve. And according to Valve's analysis, if this game had something wrong, it wouldn't have been released on Steam.

similar to NFT, with the exception that you can get them if you play long enough.

This is basically NFTs, but... somewhat ethical

Guys, stopp acting like nft... it's not. Bananas do not get more worth, they have no use. They drop free. Nft get more worth, in rare cases, bananas not, lol.

that's also wrong, games do not get checked by valve anymore, you pay 100$ that's it

It's actually as close to NFT as you can get without making it a NFT.
A useless piece of code, at least this stuff doesn't use a ton of electricity. So to answer your original question: there are "humans" who but NFTs, so there will be "humans" who buy bananas. There will always be people who are dumb enough for this sort of thing to work.

Its not just an nft. Its bitcoin. This entire game is a low effort bitcoin farmer that you can use without breaking your hardware. The fact that people actually buy into this whole game and buy bananas for 300 bucks is more than telling of this. You mine different bitcoins over time and depending on the coin its of higher value cause its more rare than the other regular bitcoins.

So in a way its bitcoin and NFT in combination but its most certainly not just an NFT.

The "best" or in this case worst part is that the dev basically doesnt even have to do anything more than to put it on steam to generate an income since everyone who even sells just one banana will have given them at least 1 cent in revenue.

This game is gonna be gone soon. So if any of you all want to really speculate and get some money, now is the time I suppose. Ill let it run for like a few hours and see if I can get anywhere above 50 cent. Probably not. And if thats the case, it aint worth my processing power.

I mean, Egg is still on Steam, so this is probably allowed.

Doesn't matter if it's NFT or BTC, both are worthless pieces of code.

ya, and he would lose everytime 2 cent. So the mining must be pretty effective..
You can decompile the code and see for yourself lol. There's not even one piece of code that uses network in any form.

But.... Maybe it's an offline miner? That would be a piece of art, a symphony of software engineering, the grand blockchain composition of efficiency and grace with intricate melodies of an elegant, optimized masterpiece... :GDNormal:
