Sure, but we're straying pretty far from the intent of my original comment, which is: Trial it in a popular game as an entertainment device to ferret out any bugs. Once it's sufficiently stable, then you introduce it into the real-world ensuring that all in-game data is left in-game. The real-world version starts over with a blank slate.

Of course you can't prevent people from finding a way to gamble real money for in-game currency. But to say "real money is still at stake" is like saying that if people gambled their kidney on a video game, "real organs are at stake". That's missing the forest for one very pedantic tree.
