This ensures that once bets are placed, they are locked until the match is over where profits will be automatically paid out using smart contracts verified against our huge database. This keeps transactions secure and transparent compared to traditional payment processing. Our p2p betting uses blockchain technology to verify data points against our database to ensure payouts are done in a fair and verifiable manner. Similarly, the donation system also makes good use of smart contracts to provide better transaction security, performance, usability and transparency. BLOCKCHAIN PRIMER Blockchain technology traces its roots back to a document timestamping system first proposed in 1991 [1], with the first modern blockchain, Bitcoin, proposed by Satoshi Nakamoto in 2008 [2]. The first blockchain-based distributed computing platform that allowed for decentralized applications, Ethereum [3], was released in 2015. Since then, a variety of applications have arisen. Betting, charity and value transfer systems are natural use cases for the technology due to several favorable properties ascribed to blockchains. [1]: Haber, Stuart; Stornetta, W.

It is a fact that anything that’s based on Ethereum is about decentralization. Yet! not to mention those ICO companies that haven’t built their platform yet pre ICO, even those with a platform, most are not truly decentralized even though they claim they are. And [DAPP] is just another name of [startups] for any system built on top of the Ethereum Platform” [1] There are 3 types of decentralizations: ARCHITECTURAL, POLITICAL and LOGICAL. 1. Architectural (de)centralization — how many physical computers is a system made up of? How many of those computers can it tolerate breaking down at any single time? 2. Political (de)centralization — how many individuals or organizations ultimately control the computers that the system is made up of? 3. Logical (de)centralization— does the interface and data structures that the system presents and maintains look more like a single monolithic object, or an amorphous swarm? One simple heuristic is: if you cut the system in half, including both providers and users, will both halves continue to fully operate as independent units? [1]: Vitalik Buterin (Feb 6, 2017). ”The Meaning of Decentralization” HYBRID (DE)CENTRALIZED PLATFORM is a ultimate hybrid of centralized and decentralized platforms depending on what we want to achieve. Examples: 1. Anything related to P2P is decentralized architecturally and politically. Players can choose how they pay the other player with their own terms and rules while there's a logically centralized network to verify the result. When P2P betting using ggEsports, the hardware could be their own phones which is architecturally decentralized while the rules and terms are controlled by the players making it politically and logically decentralized. But the logic on who won at the end will be verified by ggEsports' database, which is logically centralized. 2. Data related features will be a hybrid as well. A hybrid is necessary in this category to ensure the data, news and results are valid and genuine. farming is related to personal contribution to the eSports ecosystem, as long as you have internet, anyone can contribute to the network. We have centralized logic to verify every piece of information with the same standard to make sure it is valid. Yet, the architecture is half centralized and half decentralized to balance the performance and security of the system Unlike other eSports ICOs out there, we have a fully operational product that was launched 6 months ago and accumulated over users all over 300k the world. www.ggesports.com ALL YOU 20% Floating NEED TO 30% reserve KNOW Token Sale Token ABOUT Distribution 15% Token Cold storage 15% Distribution 20% Founder & teams Operations & There are 1,000,000,000,000 GGC in circulation marketing TOKEN FLOW 01Buying 02Using 03Contribute04Trading Sell the coin for BTC or Buy coins from Contribute to the Buying, betting, donating, ETH OR Keep the coin exchanges using BTC eSports ecosystem trading with your coin as a long term or ETH while using the coin investment ALL ABOUT PRODUCTS Source: https://wall.alphacoders.com/big.php?i=816720 WHAT WE HAVE ACCOMPLISHED SO FAR 300k 500k 8 years Registered users Active user community eSports micro data ● Launched GGESPORTS.com early 2018 accumulating over ● Built odds based on a huge database combined with a mix 300k registered users with a 500k active user community of backtesting, regression testing, chi square testing and ● Collected 8 years of eSports micro data including player use of data farming and AI technologies psychological states and in game situational play ● Combined with a traditional sportsbook company and now performance have X employees in different countries ● Formed

    A R C H O N S HIDDEN RULERS THROUGH THE AGES A R C H O N S HIDDEN RULERS THROUGH THE AGES WATCH THIS IMPORTANT VIDEO UFOs, Aliens, and the Question of Contact MUST-SEE THE OCCULT REASON FOR PSYCHOPATHY Organic Portals: Aliens and Psychopaths KNOWLEDGE THROUGH GNOSIS Boris Mouravieff - GNOSIS IN THE BEGINNING ...1 The Gnostic core belief was a strong dualism: that the world of matter was deadening and inferior to a remote nonphysical home, to which an interior divine spark in most humans aspired to return after death. This led them to an absorption with the Jewish creation myths in Genesis, which they obsessively reinterpreted to formulate allegorical explanations of how humans ended up trapped in the world of matter. The basic Gnostic story, which varied in details from teacher to teacher, was this: In the beginning there was an unknowable, immaterial, and invisible God, sometimes called the Father of All and sometimes by other names. “He” was neither male nor female, and was composed of an implicitly finite amount of a living nonphysical substance. Surrounding this God was a great empty region called the Pleroma (the fullness). Beyond the Pleroma lay empty space. The God acted to fill the Pleroma through a series of emanations, a squeezing off of small portions of his/its nonphysical energetic divine material. In most accounts there are thirty emanations in fifteen complementary pairs, each getting slightly less of the divine material and therefore being slightly weaker. The emanations are called Aeons (eternities) and are mostly named personifications in Greek of abstract ideas.

  • Gamesquare Deck V1.3 Optimize

    GameSquare Investor Presentation V1.1 Introduction Esports is now a mainstream form of entertainment; famed Fortnite player Ninja, who has had as many as 667,000 live watchers at the same time1, was featured on the cover of ESPN The Magazine in September 2018. For perspective, NBC’s prime broadcast show The Voice had a weekly audience of about 8 MM in November 20182, putting Ninja’s audience at over 8% of this figure. Ninja is successful, earning over $350,000 per month3. Though on a per-viewer basis, this is far less than what shows such as The Voice generate. Gamesquare will improve monetization of Esports viewership to address this gap. Our proposed business model is to make an outright purchase of the streaming rights of Esports players and teams, so that we can monetize them through methods such as product placement, sponsorships, and advertising. Further demonstrating the popularity of Esports, more than 50 US colleges and universities have varsity Esports teams4. Further, Goldman Sachs anticipates the monetization of Esports will go from $655 MM (2017) to just under $3 B (2022)5. 1 https://variety.com/2018/gaming/news/ninja-espn-magazine-cover-1202947409/ 2 https://www.nielsen.com/us/en/top10s.html 3 https://www.forbes.com/sites/insertcoin/2018/03/09/fortnite-goD-ninja-is-making-at-least-350000-a-month- from-twitch-subscriptions/ 4 http://www.espn.com/esports/story/_/id/21152905/college-esports-list-varsity-esports-programs-north-america 5 https://www.goldmansachs.com/insights/pages/infographics/e-sports/report.pDf So, how big is

Tävlingsinriktat spelande (esport) håller på att formas till något bara få kunde tänka sig. E- sport (som förknippas med spelande) har också varit framgångsrikt på de olika fronterna i branschen. Den globala tilväxten inom e-sport och både nationell samt internationell framgång inom branschen har fått flera organisationer att investera i e-sport. Professionella sportorganisationer byggs upp på samma gång som tävlingar med allt större priser och synlighet väcker uppmärksamheten bland allmänheten. Dessutom har vissa skolor börjat stöda elever som vill rikta in sig på tävlingsinriktat spelande. Grail Quest är ett esport och LAN evenemang som ordnades för första gången 2017 i Gatorade Arena i Åbo 2018 i Kuppis bollhall. Organisatörerna vill med hjälp av evenemanget lyfta fram e-sporten och tävlingsinritkat spelande (videospel) bland allmänheten och nå nya potentiella kunder. Det huvudsakliga syftet med examensarbetet är att undersöka kundgruppen för att kartlägga en marknadsföringsstrategi åt följande Grail Quest -evenemanget som kommer att ordnas. I undersökningen ligger fokus på målgruppen e-sportentusiasiter. Arbetet går mer detaljerat in på hur man marknadsför evenemang. Det ser också på vad som krävs för att få ungdomar som tävlar i esport att bli intresserade att delta i ett e-sport och LAN- evenemang.
