The company has formed a division aimed at developing blockchain and other next-generation technologies

Google Labs has created a new division,which will develop blockchain technologies, as well as other next-generation computing products. Bloomberg writes about this with reference to the company’s announcement.

CEO of Google will be in chargeShivakumar Venkataraman. He has served the company in its core search advertising business for over a decade. However, as noted by the media, the newly formed division is relatively smaller than other teams within Google Labs. What kind of projects the specialists are working on remains unclear.

Let us remind you that earlier the editors wrote that Googleshowed interest in organizing cryptocurrency payments. This was stated by the company's commercial director Bill Ready. The media drew attention to the fact that the crypto exchange Coinbase and the BitPay payment service have already talked about preparing to introduce tools for connecting users’ crypto debit cards to the Google Pay electronic payment system.

At the end of December 2021, the government of SouthKorea demanded that Google and Apple block the registration of blockchain games in the play-to-earn area. Officially, neither Apple nor Google commented on the ban.

Now game companies must first getapproval from the regulator before releasing their blockchain games in Korea. The Committee, in turn, will determine the age of the players who will be able to use the product. According to the authorities, play-to-earn games cannot be evaluated in accordance with the current legislation of the country. The difficulties are related to the fact that game items with monetary properties are considered both in-game currency and prizes.
