Hi Product Hunt 👋 I’m Davide, one of the makers of Blocklord. We've been working hard and super excited to share it with the Product Hunt community! Blocklord is a new Ethereum-based game where you can buy, personalize and trade any location on the real-world map, leaving your mark forever on the blockchain. You can also buy places of interests and landmarks, reselling them for a higher price or earning rewards when a block is sold next to one of yours. It would be great to hear your hear any and all of your feedback! Any q's just let me know 😉 Thanks!

@iamjdeleon Hi Jeronimo, it's the block in manhattan, correct? did you use the app before public launch? We used to use hashes but we moved to query params to support better sharing. Your url is https://www.blocklord.co/?x=3859... :)

Will you be updating the map imagery over time? Seems like a fun project!

@michaelibrooks Hi Michael! Thanks so much :) Yes we had fun making it! It's a crowd-sourced community project so all the imagery is real is generated by people buying blocks. But if you mean the actually background map - we created the toggle on the top left so you can flick between different map skins - you can even get the 3D terrain view going 😎 Is that what mean?
Michael Brooks
@davide_scalzo I was referring to the background map updating overtime as landscape changes.

@davide_scalzo @michaelibrooks Hi Michael, gotcha! Yes it's all live data provided by CartoDB and other open map providers so yes it's going to change and update visually over time, but also new places names, addresses, the works :)

@davide_scalzo @blocklordapp Thanks for the clarification :-)
