I have thought about this problem a bit especially with Wizards encountering forged cards from China. Honestly Magic and MTGO has been a ripe ground for BTC experimentation.

I think every card they print will eventually be represented as a member of a blockchain.

And then someone could create a site to exchange the (bitcoin-backed) cards!

But what could we call such a site?

Well, the obvious name would be "Magic the Gathering Online Exchange", but that's slightly long. I guess it should be shortened somehow?

I like your thinking, what about MTGOX? I know just the frenchman in Japan who could code it for us.
