The practice of squatting and buying and selling IDs is actually quite common in MMO games. When the mobile game "Tiandao" was first launched, PDD wanted to continue to use its old IDs to slay dragons. I even spent 1,000 yuan to buy it online.
But when we compare these various IDs with real corporate brands, the emergence of squatting and buying and selling is not difficult to understand. Enterprises want their brands to be more easily remembered by consumers, so the trademarks and brands they register must be unique and personalized. In order to reap the benefits of the name as soon as possible, they will not only register in advance, but also register similar products. By registering your name together, even if you don't use it, if someone wants to buy it in the future, you can still make a fortune by reselling it.
For example, one of the most popular words recently, "Lie Ping", was registered by Alibaba early on. After "Lie Ping" became popular this time, Alibaba must have made a lot of money from this wave of traffic. Bowls full.
The same is true in games. Players all want their characters to be recognizable in the game, so unique IDs will definitely become hot commodities, some like PDD. Some players only love their old IDs for the continuation of that feeling, and some couple players will inevitably choose the most unique couple names, otherwise how can they show their love and declare their CP sovereignty!
Since there is such and such demand, someone will definitely seize this business opportunity, which means the same thing as companies rushing to register trademarks: I can not use it, but it will leave my I had to make it count at that moment. It can only be said that selling and buying are a matter of willingness to pay and acceptance. If no one continues to pursue this kind of thing, then this kind of business will slowly disappear on its own.
It is rare to see this kind of ID transaction in the mobile game "Tianyu". Perhaps it is because there are many areas open, and if you are preempted, you can just change the area. But sometimes I also wonder, if there is a big anchor like PDD in Tianyu, then I can make a thousand and eight hundred by stealing his ID.
