The Universal Gaming Token
Start date	01. Jun 2018	End date	28. Nov 2018
Information	The PlayChip is an ERC20 token designed to become the universal gaming token. The PlayChip will serve at the core of an online gaming ecosystem that already consists of seven platforms, with many more to come. The ecosystem supports a user base of over 900,000 people in over 70 different nations, and is on track to turn over a combined US$430m in 2018 alone. The PlayChip is set to become the universal token for sports betting, gaming, fantasy sports, and eSports in an operating business with over 900,000 players on seven platforms in 70 countries. PlayChip’s mission is to deliver the world’s biggest incentivised, blockchain-enabled sports community and gaming ecosystem. The PlayChip is set to disrupt the US$3 trillion unregulated gambling industry by providing unparalleled trust and transparency, ease of use, lower fees, and provably fair betting environments. The introduction of the blockchain will see thePlayChip offer a superior experience to traditional sports betting systems. Daily Fantasy Sports (DFS), eSports, and online gambling are flourishing industries. The DFS industry enjoys a steady US$4bn annual turnover1 while global online gambling turnovers are forecasted to exceed US$59bn in 2020. Global gambling turnovers are estimated to be as high as US$3 trillion in unregulated markets. At present, the PlayChip serves as a rewards token for playup.com, with a fixed value of US0.01. Players can convert the current PlayChip to rewards vouchers with affiliates including Mastercard and Amazon. Following the migration of the PlayChip to the blockchain, the PlayChip will serve as the universal gaming token for seven independent sports betting, DFS, and gaming platforms with a combined user base of over 900,000 and exceeding US$430 million in annual turnover. Players will be able to use credit card, PayPal, bank deposit, or a range of cryptocurrencies to purchase PlayChipswithin the PlayWallet and PlayXchange. PlayChips can then be seamlessly transferred between any of the seven gaming platforms to participate in DFS, sports betting, eSports betting, or table games such as poker. Winnings are then able to be easily cashed from PlayChips back into credit card, PayPal, bank deposit, or cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum.The PlayChip platform presents an all-in-one frictionless solution for fast, fun, and easy gaming and sports betting. Due to the high volume of transactions that can take place in DFS and sports betting, the technology supporting the PlayChipmust be scalable and fast. A robust internal network is being built to handle the high frequency transactions of PlayChip’sdistributed partners, which currently number in the thousands per minute. Timing in DFS and sports betting is crucial due to changes in conditions and late changes to player profiles, so it is important that players of the PlayChip have a network they can rely upon. The PlayChip offers an off-chain engine linked to a public blockchain that will provide players with high transaction speeds and the confidence to use their PlayChips securely in real time without fear of bottlenecks or network lag. The PlayChip will also offer a social network that links all platforms within the ecosystem and incentives robust gameplay between players via large prize pools and leaderboard competitions. In addition, an eToro-like follower functionality is being built into the platform to facilitate incentivised copycat betting of leading players. This social betting feature will create large scalable network effects, which further aim to grow the user base and reward possibilities for players. We see the development of the PlayChip as a natural progression for a dynamic and ever-evolving industry. Due to the ‘trustless’ nature of smart contracts, and the security and autonomy of blockchain networks, we envisage that a majority of industries will adopt blockchain-enabled payment and rewards systems in the coming years. PlayChip is pleased to lead this advance. The PlayChip has been designed to be simple, secure and fun. We invite all gaming and cryptocurrency enthusiasts alike to participate in what is set to become the universal gaming token.
