After nearly two years of “building, testing and improving,” eSports betting operator Unikrn is now ready to launch a new product—its own digital currency.
In 2015, the operator introduced the Unikoin, a digital currency that players can use on the Unikrn site. Now, the company is taking that product a step further with the launch of UnikoinGold.
Unikrn said UnikoinGold will be the player’s entry to a new version of the Unikrn betting system, and will also become the exclusive token for the operator’s skill-based betting platform. And because it is designed as a decentralized ERC20 token on the Ethereum blockchain, this means that the coin can be bought, sold and traded on digital currency exchanges that deal with Ethereum.
“After exceeding a quarter of a billion Unikoins turned, we knew it was time to introduce our cryptocurrency–#UnikoinGold,” Unikrn CEO Rahul Sood said in a LinkedIn post.
