The internet is filled with chatter about cryptocurrency. And in the noise, cryptocurrency has almost become synonymous with Bitcoin. But that’s just the tip of the iceberg.

There exists an entire marketplace of other cryptocurrencies launched after the success of Bitcoin. Sure, Bitcoin was the first peer-to-peer digital currency, but that doesn’t mean be all and end all of that space. Newer coins that are essentially trying to recreate the magic of Bitcoin, albeit in a better way, have been launched over the past few years. Ethereum, Ripple, Cardano, Dogecoin, Theta, and many more.

And all of these cryptocurrencies are called altcoins, as in… alternatives to Bitcoin? Get it?

So, altcoins are basically cryptocurrencies that are not Bitcoin, and here’s how they can broadly be classified.

Stablecoins

Cryptocurrency is known to fluctuate a lot. It is this sort of volatility that Stablecoins attempt to rectify. They do this by basing their values on goods like fiat currencies, precious metals, and other cryptocurrencies (mostly Bitcoin). True USD, USDC, and Binance USD are all examples of Stablecoins pegged on the US dollar.

Any alarming fluctuations in the values are corrected by the issuer. This is why Stablecoins are used less for investing and more for storing and transferring money. Certain protocols even offer interests on storing your wealth.

Mining Based Coins

These coins are mined into existence. Meaning, systems can generate new coins by solving equations to verify and therefore, create blocks. Most of the coins from the early 2020 fall under this class, popular examples being Litecoin and Zcash.

Security Tokens

These resemble traditional stocks. Security tokens are promising equity options for investors. They provide the equity in the form of ownership of the coins or by giving pay-outs to the shareholders. Polymath, Swarm and Securitize are among the best Security Token platforms in 2021.

Utility Tokens

Like the name suggests, Utility Tokens are used to provide services within a network. These services range from purchasing other services to redeeming rewards. Sirilabs tokens, Timicoin, and Funfair are among the most popular utility tokens.

Why You Should Invest in Altcoins

Altcoins, though modelled after the revered Bitcoin, try to be better. They are in their infancy and therefore have a low user base compared to the mighty giant. But this is more to new investors’ advantage than you realize.

A lot of new investors hesitate to get started with Bitcoin because the space seems to be rather saturated, owing to its years of activity. This is where altcoins come in - to offer a fresh start. The first altcoins date almost a decade back (2011 was indeed 10 years ago) and are still developing. The new interests and activity in these spaces open more doors for making money.

Altcoins attempt to be meaningful alternatives to Bitcoin by:

Employing better transaction systems to increase speeds and decrease costs.

Have a narrow range of fluctuations in their values.

Provide better privacy.

Litecoin is often referred to as “the silver to Bitcoin’s gold”.

This illustrates our point perfectly. Despite Bitcoin being the mammoth that it has become, altcoins will be important in the crypto landscape; much like silver is in comparison to gold.

Ethereum and some of its contemporaries can do things that Bitcoins could only dream of doing, like:

Managing identities across a suite of different applications

Data storage

Creation of applications

Serving as a platform for smart contracts and decentralized applications (like DeFis and NFTs)

Significantly faster transaction speeds

The list keeps going.

The only 'flaw', if you can really call it that, that altcoins like Litecoin or Ether (that is, Ethereum’s native token) possess in comparison to Bitcoin is its popularity. Which is why, apps such as CoinSwitch Kuber decided to explore these avenues of investments, and make it easier for people to create wealth by trading in crypto, a lot of which happens using, yes, you’ve guessed it right - altcoins.

Like any investment, every altcoin has its share of risks and cons. And like any wise investor, you must take a look at the metrics before you decide to invest. That being said, the future looks bright for altcoins, and your choice of investment just might be the next big thing that takes over the biggest cryptocurrencies.

Please check into #liveteamchat on Tuesday, 23rd April, 3-3:30pm BST.A cryptocurrency wallet is secure store of your private key. A private key enables the holder to sign transactions, allowing for the transfer of funds and execution of smart contracts. Ether and other ERC-20 tokens like FUN, are not held in wallets but as records on the blockchain which your private key allows you to transact with.Some wallets are intended for long term safekeeping of cryptocurrency (cold), others for easy access to funds and everyday use (hot). Ours will be for the latter, although secure, it is dApp-specific for FunFair-powered casinos and will be intended for use as such and not for long term crypto storage.We want our players to have a sign-up and gameplay experience that they’d experience at any traditional igaming casino, but with the underlying benefits of our blockchain tech. To make this as seamless as possible, we’ve decided to build our own wallet.The three main reasons we’re building this are as follows:Online casino players are used to a certain standard of journey from landing on-site, to registering to play and then to the actual gameplay. Blockchain certainly brings new challenges to this onboarding process, with many players, no matter their crypto or blockchain experience, not fully understanding the nature of wallets, private keys, recovery phrases, signing transactions and the like.To make this process as simple as possible, our wallet will be fully integrated into the journey, not requiring players to go off-site at any point, and will use well understood sign in and registration processes, primarily, email address and password combinations.We’re confident this will increase the conversion rate of visitors to the site, as potential players see a more familiar, easier to understand sign-up and funding mechanism.Our new wallet will be built with an interface that keeps the ease of use front and centre. As with onboarding, it’s imperative the wallet is able to be used by those who have no experience signing Ethereum transactions as much as those who have a more advanced understanding of the tech involved.There’s no reason why blockchain-based platforms have to be more complicated and we’re going to prove this so we can attract a new audience of those wanting guaranteed blockchain fairness but with the simplicity they’d find in other online environments.Gaming is no longer desktop-led and we’re leading the way in bringing blockchain casino to the mobile domain. Our wallet will be available on any browser and any device without the need for extra layers such as browser extensions and app installations.With the same account, players will be able to jump between our soon-to-be mobile optimised platform from small screen devices to their desktop and back again with the ease they demand.Private keys will be stored in an encrypted form on FunFair’s servers. The keys are encrypted with information only known to the user, FunFair will not have access to the unencrypted private key at any time.Access to the encrypted private key is secured using a standard email address and password based sign in. Two factor authentication can be enabled to provide increased security.Everyone will need a wallet account to play on a FunFair casino, but for those comfortable with Metamask, we will be integrating it as an external wallet extension.Our proprietary wallet will be far more ergonomic, with it built specifically for use with our own casino offering, than third-party options, but we want people to have a choice and therefore Metamask, and potentially other wallets down the line, will be available.The wallet will be live in Q2. We’ll announce more specific dates and details when appropriate. We will only release it once it has been rigorously tested on both a security and usability side. Players signed up to CasinoFair and RakeTheRake’s new casino will get access as soon as it’s ready to go.Copyright © 2019 FunFair Technologies.

The internet of money should not cost $0.05 per transaction. It’s kind of absurd. – Vitalik Buterin, 2014.

One of the most promising applications of blockchain technology is casino gaming. However, so far, blockchain-based casino and betting applications haven’t been able to reach their full potential due to being built on unscalable networks.

King Tiger Casino, a blockchain casino app owned by FunFair Technologies, recently announced that it was temporarily shutting down due to congestion on Ethereum. This follows the recent Stoner Cats debacle on Ethereum in which a relatively minor NFT project caused gas fees to skyrocket and hundreds of thousands of dollars’ worth of transactions to fail, leaving users out of pocket.

Why did King Tiger Casino close its doors?

To clarify, King Tiger Casino’s closure is only temporary due to congestion on Ethereum. It also announced that it was on the lookout for “new solutions” to host new features and games for its users.

The announcement went further and said that Ethereum network congestion made it “impossible to run our games in the current format.” Once again, developers are coming up against reality as Ethereum fails to scale and deliver on its scaling promises.

King Tiger Casino did emphasize that users’ funds would not be affected by its temporary closure and that they could either leave the funds in their wallets or move them at will.

London hard fork does nothing to improve Ethereum

After much hype and anticipation, Ethereum’s London hard fork has done nothing other than pump the price of the ETH token. This upgrade will burn ETH tokens with every transaction and will make Ethereum deflationary, but so far, that has done nothing other than increase gas fees for users. Developers claim that gas fees should stabilize in time, but there are plenty of sceptics who doubt that.

With Ethereum 2.0 always just around the corner, developers like those behind King Tiger Casino are beginning to realize that running applications at scale on Ethereum isn’t going to be a reality anytime soon. Dissenting voices have argued that even ETH 2.0 won’t solve Ethereum’s inherent issues and that the changes will mostly be cosmetic in nature.

The future of proof-of-stake is uncertain

Aside from its renowned scaling problems, Ethereum could face even greater problems due to its decision to change to a proof of stake consensus mechanism. POS supporters recently experienced a wave of panic as the Biden administration backed an amendment to its Infrastructure Bill that could leave proof of stake protocols dead in the water in the United States.

How long can developers wait before they throw in the towel and realize that Ethereum just isn’t what they thought it was? Many forward-thinking developers are already moving.

Learn how Fyx Gaming gave up on Ethereum and built on BSV.

King Tiger Casino should look at Peergame

In its search for solutions to its current scaling problems, FunFair Technologies would do well to consider moving across to BSV enterprise blockchain.

Popular BSV casino app Peergame routinely does tens of thousands of daily transactions and has yet to hit a bottleneck. It recently experienced a surge in demand as the popular blockchain game CryptoFights went viral, yet no transaction issues were experienced, and fees remained at fractions of a penny.

Utilizing the BSV token to run games like roulette, baccarat, and dice on-chain, Peergame’s average fee per transaction remains at $0.00033. This is the mean fee currently, with Peergame experiencing over 20,000 transactions daily.

Ethereum won’t scale and can’t compete

As the digital currency and blockchain industries mature and serious participants enter the space, they’ll be looking for solutions that scale to run their applications successfully today. Since BSV enterprise blockchain scales past 50,000 transactions per second with much larger volumes on the horizon, hype machines like Ethereum will begin to fade into insignificance.

The ETH token will likely continue to soar in value for a while as gamblers drive its price ever higher in anticipation of greater fools buying it from them later. Yet, in the long game, serious developers will have no choice but to abandon Ethereum and move on. As the King Tiger Casino statement shows, Ethereum doesn’t have what it takes to run blockchain applications at scale.

Isle of Man-licensed blockchain gaming platform FunFair Technologies is eyeing international growth after the group localised its Guaranteed Fair gaming platform for the Japanese market. After previously only being available in English, the group has enabled the first localised language of the technology as it eyes expansion across the region. Stressing that partners have assured the firm that its blockchain gaming technology represents “a great fit” for Japanese players, FunFair asserts that the jurisdiction “is home to some of the most experienced blockchain players globally”. One of the few regulated cryptocurrency markets and boasting a sizeable audience, as a result of the move individuals across the country will be able to access FunFair’s non-custodial wallet which allows users to hold complete control of their funds, and access them from any browser globally.  Fred Kessler, CPO at FunFair Technologies Europe, explained: “We’ve been advised by our partners for some time that Japan is a great market due to its regulatory framework around cryptocurrency. “The authorities there have been advocates of how cryptocurrency and blockchain technology will encourage growth in Japan. In fact, JPY is the second largest traded currency against Bitcoin after USD and this makes it an excellent choice for our first platform localisation.  “We’re really looking forward to increased engagement with this new addition to FunFairs’ product proposition, we continue to push our product and technology forward with our aim to bring blockchain technology to the masses and to the forefront of gaming entertainment.”

FunFair Technologies, the leading Isle of Man-licensed blockchain gaming platform, has launched card payments on their platform through one of the world’s leading cryptocurrency payment processors, MoonPay.

True to the promise of bringing blockchain gaming technology to the masses, FunFair is opening up a new audience and driving further adoption with this significant new feature.

In their latest Q2 update FunFair outlined their unwavering focus on payments and marketing as the key areas to drive adoption of their blockchain technology. Both of these are critical in their objective to bring Guaranteed Fair Ⓡ gaming to all parties in their ecosystem, be that players, operators, affiliates or game developers.

In the process of launching FIAT currency payments FunFair have also removed another significant obstacle for players who want to take advantage of the benefits their blockchain technology brings. This is the removal of blockchain network fees, or GAS, for players.  Players can now play on the platform using only, FUN, FunFair’s cryptocurrency, and do not need to have ETH to play. This significantly simplifies the onboarding and gameplay process, reducing friction and complexity.

Fred Kessler, CPO at FunFair Technologies Europe Ltd, said: “Adding card payments is a major milestone for FunFair in our mission to bring blockchain gaming to the masses. We’re focusing all our efforts on payments and marketing to improve the customer journey and adoption to our blockchain gaming platform.

We’ve been looking into this for quite some time and are really glad we decided to integrate MoonPay, they’re one of the largest and fastest-growing payment services providers in the crypto space. FunFair and our partners look forward to sharing some of that success”

Ivan Soto-Wright, co-founder and CEO at MoonPay, said: “I think provably-fair games built on blockchain have a lot of potential to promote cryptocurrency adoption. FunFair are leaders and pioneers in this area and we’re excited to launch our services on their platform. Retail demand for cryptocurrencies has been growing at a remarkable rate and this is another key partner in the industry we’re proud to work with.”

Payment processing is now available through FunFair’s platform on all partners sites. CasinoFair, CryptoCasino and Kingtiger.io

With its whitepaper, Libra established itself as a global currency and a financial infrastructure that would empower its users.The release of Libra did excite many from within the cryptoverse, like eToro, social trading and investing platform. The blockchain scientists from the firm namely, Dr. Omri Ross, Peter Emil Jensen, and Johannes Rude Jensen, took the opportunity to test their tokenized asset on Libras prototype blockchain.Mati Greenspan, Senior Market Analyst at eToro informed the community about the teams work on Twitter:Our boys at Firmo already programmed the first tokenized assets to be deployed on the #Libra network once it goes live.According to the GitHub post, the team used specification targetting Ethereum blockchain to write and execute basic implementation to create a digital asset on Libra blockchain. The team explained the use of Move IR by the blockchain and said that the noveltyof the Move language is the way in which a resource is defined.According to the developers notes, a resource is a structured datatype utilizing ownership model, but it cannot be copied. The resource can only be moved and borrowed, which would be an important aspect for digital currencies as it cannot be duplicated. Another detail about the Move language highlighted by the devs was that it does not allow others to publish data on behalf of other users.Source :ambcryptoContinue ReadingOur previous events of Blockchain Eventon were a stellar success as we attracted some of the top reputed names in our participation list from companies such as Reliance Big Entertainment, Adani Group, DBS Bank India Ltd., Apex Bank, Motilal Oswal, Aditya Birla Capital, Koinex, The Himalaya Drug Company, PWC, Mercedes-Benz India.

Imagine a casino platform built and sustained by a network of independent nodes, where no one individual has control over the odds, margins, fees or payouts. This is what rising blockchain technology Ethereum provides, and its what many believe will ultimately transform the gambling world as we know it. JPMorgan, Microsoft and Intel were among the first wave to join the Enterprise Ethereum Alliance (EEA) earlier this year, a brand new body that links up firms to blockchain vendors. This, coupled with the rapid rise of Etheruems currency Ether surged an eye-popping 4,500 percent in the last few months alone reflects substantial interest in the platform from major tech players. Few sectors are showing more interest than gambling. Coming to the fore amongst early adopters of Ethereum is FunFair, a casino platform founded by games veteran Jez San. The firm raised $15.4m in the first phase of its recent Initial Coin Offering an event cryptocurrency startups use to raise funds and presented its wares to an audience at Amsterdams iGaming Super Show this month. Unlike other companies, we have much more than a white paper and a dream for our token creation event, commented Jez San, CEO of FunFair. Weve already developed real, playable casino games that prove our model works. Our vision is a limitless universe of transparent, secure casinos that can be easily created by anyone, anywhere in the world. FunFairss Ethereum-based platform will be offered to casino providers as a white label product, allowing retail operators to obtain all the advantages of this provably fair and decentralised technology under their own branded casinos. The site is already showcasing intricate 3D game demos, giving potential developers a taste of whats possible on its open-architecture network. A fun fair of gambling games will eventually feature, ranging from classic card, table and slot games, to exclusive titles developed by individual operators. Like other blockchain projects, every single game on its platform will be provably fair, meaning contracts between player and operator are made public, right down to the mathematical models that drive the RNGs and determine the winnings. Gamblers will themselves be able to verify the fairness of each outcome and confirm whether they should have been paid if they so wished. Yet there are several ways in which FunFair is unique. Its in-house tech looks set to tackle endemic issues in the cryptocurrency-blockchain gambling sphere such as slow betting speed, and poor game experience. Firstly, games built on FunFair run directly in the browser on desktop and mobile devices without requiring an app download, eliminating one of the major pain-points of player onboarding. The firms innovations have already created a substantial reduction in the overhead inherent to an online casino overhead costs in transactions for example, costs can be cut by as much as 99 percent which will undoubtedly prick the ears of big-name operators otherwise wary of blockchain. One of the most salient reasons that newcomers have looked away from blockchain is the speed of play it enables. Slow block confirmation the time it takes for the ledger to update means each user can typically wait up to a minute to lay a bet. This inherent lag has thus far deterred operators and players alike, incurring gas costs and weary gameplay, and is often cited as an argument for how unsustainable blockchain casinos are. Yet FunFair claims to have cracked this snag too. Its patented payment system takes the transactions off chain, meaning that each payment (bet) can be made without waiting for block confirmation. The firms patented Fate Channel technology opens a State Channel a dedicated highway, solely between two parties, allowing secure and immediate payment and therefore, relatively instantaneous bets. In addition, Fate Channel has truncated standard transaction costs from 10 percent to just 0.1 percent. Although payment technologies similar to it already exist, FunFair are the first to deploy one on a mass scale. Mechanics like these could prove key to survival for firms operating in this highly competitive market. Singapore-based FunFair also has a presence in the UK and wants to work with regulators to create a legal infrastructure around cryptocurrency gambling. Lack of transparency regarding licences is a key issue with Bitcoin casinos, with many sites created and run by anonymous parties. A firm getting full legislative recognition could have enormous implications for the entire sector. However, the success of FunFair ultimately rests on convincing casino operators to licence its platform.

Predictions! Predictions! Predictions! Everyone is offering you advice, opinion and guidance on what will happen in 2018, from politics to international investment markets to World War Three with North Korea. But, even more predictions are emanating from the feverish cryptocurrency ­communities across the globe. Keyboard warriors who really do not fancy doing a day’s work are mercilessly mining the blockchain to find and tout the next ­Bitcoin. It’s a whole subset of society that many of us will miss if we blink. So, my prediction for 2018 is that cryptocurrency will explode. Most certainly the geeks and early ­adopters will continue to massage their online portfolios on cryptocurrency exchanges like Binance and Coinbase. But the newbies will also pour in as they fear missing out and want to make a few bob. I, too, have joined the newbies staking my claim on the altcoins that could realise ­significant gains in 2018. Of course, I have to caveat this whole article with the following… don’t invest in cryptocurrency unless you are fully prepared to lose the lot. Investing in this area is unproven, unregulated and in essence a bit of a casino. Why would you go to all the trouble of logging in and giving it a go with your hard-earned cash when you know that it is more volatile than the North Korean regime? Well, that is part of the thrill. That is part of the whole crypto movement. And the reason why the crypto exchanges have had to put up “we are full” signs over the whole festive period. They simply cannot cope with the influx of new “investors” who want in. Having been bitten by the crypto bug, I have stuck a few bob on a few “coins”. These are essentially real-life ­companies or start-ups. They have management teams and a whole bunch of developers who are all driving forward the value proposition towards success. So, while my investment is on the exchange and I have bought some cheap coins, behind this I am hoping (yes, ­hoping) that something tangible will come of it. Me and tens of thousands of other speculators around the world. Let me give you an example. FunFair is an altcoin that has an audacious goal. In short, to transform how online gaming is conducted globally. By creating a new platform on the blockchain, FunFair wants to make online gaming more secure, faster and open to a wider audience. In fact, it wants you – yes you – to have the capacity to set up your own online casino. This would be unheard of only a year ago. Yes, FunFair is all about using disruptive technology to radically change how global online gaming takes place. The potential market is huge. FunFair as I write this piece has an exchange price of $0.09 with a market cap of more than $397 million. But, as this company launches its new tech and develops its team, the crypto geeks are ­predicting big things. They are analysing its ­competitors, its marketing and its tech. They are posting predictions of $10 and even $50. These are massive hikes and many do not stand up to typical analytical rigour. But, despite that, both long-established crypto geeks and newbies like me are buying… There is a whole plethora of coins out there that may take your fancy. But, this is where the lottery begins. And I again reaffirm my earlier caveat. Who is controlling the hype and the chatter is a big question for me. Who is investing, albeit a coin like FunFair has attracted proper venture investment, is open to ­substantial questioning. Unfortunately I don’t have the forensic powers and experience to dig deep enough. But, like you, I can use ­Google and spend a few hours researching. It is indeed all the fun of the fair as one has to be willing to jump on the scary ride and see what happens, when one invests in cryptocurrency. I would urge our business readers to start educating themselves in this space as it will definitely get bigger in 2018. l Jim Duffy is co-founder of Moonshot ­Academy and author of Create Special.

An event dubbed the Bitcoin Funfair willtake place in Stockholm next month with the aim of encouraging use of the digital currency among consumers.The event, organised by The Forumist, a group of creative Swedish individuals and bitcoin users, will host upcoming designers, entrepreneurs and vintage shops who will showcase and sell their products.To encourage shopping, visitors will be asked to exchange a minimum of 100 Swedish krona (SEK) into bitcoin, which they willbe able to spend, save or exchange back into fiatcurrency if unused.When asked about the purpose of the event, Gustav Bagge, content creator at The Forumist, said: "We just want regular people to discover bitcoins, and help young upcoming artists, designers and innovators learn about the possibilities of permission-less innovation."The idea, he continued, was to demonstrate to people, business owners, innovators and emerging entrepreneurs that bitcoin is a fun, modern and simple tool for economic transactions.TheFunfair, described as "a flea market from the future with dazzling colours, delicious food, fascinating products, enchanting music and entertainment", will take place on 14th and 15th February in Stockholm's Sdra Theatre.The organisers have also opened up the event to children. Kids Hack Day, a group which encourages technology-related play among children, will be present to supervise them as they swap, sell or buy items from each other using bitcoin.Bagge said that "there seems to be a great interest for something like this", and confirmed plans for future events, citing Tokyo or Barcelona as possible destinations.He added:"We are tired of reading about hacks and thefts in the mainstream media, when the reality is that bitcoin is an amazing new technology that empowers anyone to start a business."Funfair image via Shutterstock The leader in blockchain news, CoinDesk is a media outlet that strives for the highest journalistic standards and abides by a strict set of editorial policies.

FunFair also received more than $15M in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies from individual contributors as well as institutional funds, including Kryptonite1, Block Tower Capital, and Pantera Capital. “I’m thrilled that the blockchain community and institutional investors have so emphatically backed the team, our vision and the progress we’ve already made,” said Jez San OBE, founder and CEO. “Now it gets even more exciting as we work towards a live platform and the creation of a truly fair, transparent and player-focused gaming world.” “FunFair is an incredibly clever Ethereum-based casino games company – decentralized, P2P, provably fair online gaming. My intuition is that Funfair is going to be huge,” noted Dan Morehead, Founder and CEO of Pantera Capital. “Funfair will be one of the first practical applications to go live on Ethereum, and it actually solves a real problem of high casino fees and trust. It’s an Ethereum app that I could actually see my grandma using, which is pretty cool!” remarked Joey Krug, Co-Chief Investment Officer of Pantera Capital. “FunFair has built the first production-ready state channels, powering incredibly quick games without compromising on provable security. They’re leagues ahead of other efforts. Jez is everything you could want in a project lead, and I believe FunFair will be an invaluable addition to the ecosystem,” said Charles Noyes, Analyst, Pantera Capital. “Funfair, the team and the technology, were very impressive. Gaming is a major vertical set for disruption by smart contract technology and Funfair are by far the furthest ahead in terms of functionality and playability.” George McDonough, CEO of Kryptonite1. “Jez and the FunFair team are fantastic. I’ve known Jez since 2013, and it’s been a privilege to work with his team defining the token mechanics and creating the ultra-efficient, token sale contract. I’m looking forward to the next phase for FunFair!” said Peter Vessenes, Managing Director of New Alchemy. “I’m excited to see an experienced entrepreneur like Jez San bring Blockchain technology to gambling. Gambling is an obvious use case for Blockchain tech, but hasn’t yet been implemented in a user-friendly way – I’m looking forward to seeing FunFair change that,” noted Ari Paul, Founder, Block Tower Capital Founders Jez San, Jeremy Longley and Oliver Hopton have a proven track record of over 40 years creating innovative interactive entertainment products and have sold millions of games in the process. The team went public with their plans in early June, publishing commercial and technical white papers, news of its Token Presale and an early platform prototype with casino games playable on an Ethereum test network, using FunFair’s unique Fate Channels. FunFair’s Token Presale took place against the backdrop of recent Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs), which have placed enormous strain on the blockchain, causing global disruption and shutting out potential investors. FunFair delivered an orderly sale with no blockchain disruption and no fraudulent interference thanks to a number of ICO innovations: – FunFair was the first to use the Ethereum Name System (ENS) in a Token Sale, directing people to ‘funfund.eth’, in addition to providing a hexadecimal Ethereum address. This resulted in a more secure investment channel, reducing opportunity for fraudulent activity. – New Alchemy, the advisers and managers of the FunFair Token Presale were responsible for the gas efficient, Multi-Mint Technology that enabled FunFair to accept not only Ether, but also Bitcoin, ZCash, and selected ERC20 tokens. – FunFair is implementing a two-phase token event strategy, including a limited Phase 1 Presale enabling early adopters and investors to participate, followed by a larger Phase 2 event due later in the year. – Combination of VIP and community outreach maximized both volume of participants and total USD raised, with over 1,500 transactions to the smart contract, evidence of the broad participation base sought by the team. – Soft cap and further 4-hour sale period enabled all investors to participate within the short time window.

The FUN token has already been listed on one cryptocurrency exchange including Bittrex and EtherDelta, helping to raise awareness of the project and determine a fair market value ahead of the Phase 2 Token Event in September. According to FunFair’s roadmap, its development team will now focus on more advanced iterations of its proprietary Fate Channel technology, a larger suite of games including Roulette and Blackjack, and an Alpha release of the platform before the year’s end.
