Thing is, we don't need to make fraud impossible, we just have to make sure that it is always detectable. We know who the devs are, and if we can prove when they abuse their authority, they can be sued and their reputation would be ruined. This should proof a sufficient deterrent, and allow damage to repaired through compensation.

Sure, and blockchain is one option to make the ledger public and trusted. There are lots of ways companies can go about it.

The important thing is to get companies to actually do it, and building on crypto hype is one possible avenue to reward companies for transparency. So I'm all for discussing ways for blockchain to fit in to gaming.
