It seems like there is a kind of block that doesn’t have a home in Minecraft after all – Blockchain. In an official post made to the Minecraft website titled ‘Minecraft and NFTs’ Mojang studios staff waste no time to state “ integrations of NFTs with Minecraft are generally not something we will support or allow”.
The post then goes on to explain what NFTs are to those reading, including a brief breakdown on their association with speculation and fluctuating prices. The post states that Minecraft is a game and platform that provides all user with the same content, and states that from their perspective: “NFTs, however, can create models of scarcity and exclusion that conflict with our Guidelines and the spirit of Minecraft.”
As such, NFT technology is officially not permitted within Minecraft in any capacity. This means cosmetics, Minecraft worlds or creations, other mods within the game that make use of the blockchain are not allowed. Full stop.
