The Philippines authority’s proposal is consistent with standard procedures for crypto investing. As per the report, the cryptocurrency players are constantly at danger of losing their stakes, whether it be because of financial turbulence or fraudsters on the web. 
The statement warns: “Just because a game’s underlying blockchain is secure does not mean its engine or marketplace is secure.”

The Philippine police pointed out Axie Infinity, a game to make money on metaverse which is influenced by Pokemon that was built on the Ethereum network, and warned against the dangers of cryptocurrency gaming schemes. 
Usually, in order to start playing the game, a person must acquire at least three Axie characters, which the PNP ACG says compels consumers to spend $300 beforehand they can begin earning money. The police department, on the other hand, sided with the conventional gaming sector, where users typically spend up to $100 every session.
