Stars Group IO aims to revolutionize the football industry, by being the first company to create a decentralized currency within professional football!

STARS is a sports franchise-backed token on the Ethereum blockchain that will be issued by Stars Group IO, an ownership conglomerate of professional football clubs.

STARS is the fundamental currency supporting transactions of professional sports clubs for merchandise sales, ticket sales, live-stream broadcasting and inner-group player transfers. Stars Group IO aims to utilize STARS token to disrupt the sports industry.

We would love to answer questions and have a discussion! If you're interested, check us out at http://starsgroup.io/ for more information!

So this is an ICO, is this an official page for ICO or Is there any other page to follow?

Yes we are completing an ICO! If you take a look at starsgroup.io that will take you directly to our ICO page. Feel free to ask any other questions!

At first glance of the title I thought it meant American football (NFL). Turns out it's actually soccer. Interesting concept but I'll wait and see a bit more, see how it pops.

I've just checking on the website, and it seems interesting.
For now I would like to ask about something, will you open some bounty campaign for the project?

We do not have a bounty campaign open now, but are currently working towards one in the near future! If you are interested, feel free to send me a personal message. I will also post all the details here, once it is complete.

We got to sit down with Daniel Taylor, CEO, and chat about the football industry today and Stars Group IO! Check it out!

Do you want to know what you can buy on the Stars Platform?

Do you want to know what our token will be used for?

Do you want to know why Stars Group IO decided to do an ICO?

We can answer all of these!

Football ?)) it sounds interesting! I don't yet time to thoroughly study the problematic of the your project, but with the first glance the project became interestingly for me

Thanks for checking out our project! I can give you more detail on the problem were trying to solve. As a football agency, we have found that there are many financial/operational inefficiencies within the industry.

- Football is an ecosystem in itself, that does not operate as a byproduct of any single economy, but rather has ties to a diversity of countries, currencies, capital inflows, and football market dynamics.
- The unfortunate reality of the industry is that corruption does exist, and FIFA is doing all they can to crack down on financial fair play, and require transparency from an ownership/transaction perspective.
- There are very few opportunities for the fans of the world’s #1 sport to give back to the game and engage in depth.
- Clubs receive sponsorship, broadcasting, merchandise sales, tickets sales, and transfer fee revenue in different currencies, and at each exchange/transaction point, the club loses money in transaction fees.
- Payment delays are rampant throughout the industry.

thanks!

connecting football with blockchain is an interesting idea, but i have some questions.
what is your goal or role in professional football
are you going to cut a sponsorship deal for a known football club in the near future?

Will be bounty?

I like your idea, and the fact that you associate Blockchain with the football world. Since football is the most popular game in the world, I'm sure and your project will gain popularity and will be successful. I will follow your project. Good luck.

Our goal with Stars Group IO is we want to give football fans the ability to transact seamlessly in what we envision as the future of sports commerce. Blockchain technology provides a seamless mechanism to interact with global fans, an interaction that has yet to be entirely fulfilled.

A top goal is to acquire professional teams using the STARS Token, offering fans a chance to support their favorite team by transacting in the digital sports currency.

We actually have our bounty live now! You can check it out here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2472675.msg25332102#msg25332102

We currently have a rewards campaign you can join and earn points for value http://starsgroup.io/?ref=EOpGFdml

Which currency will be accepted during the ICO?

Once our pre-sale starts at 1pm EST, you will be able to purchase STARS tokens with ETH.

why this thread is so simple?? may be, you should explain the detail information about the project in this thread

What kind of detail are you looking for? I'm more than happy to give any details you'd like! You can also check out our WP for more detail: http://starsgroup.io/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/Stars-Group_December.pdf

Why is Stars Group IO doing an ICO?
Initial coin offerings enable purchasers from multiple socio-economic backgrounds and geographical locations to participate and engage with companies around the world. We want to give football fans the ability to transact seamlessly in what we envision as the future of sports commerce. Blockchain technology provides a seamless mechanism to interacts with global fans, an interaction that has yet to be entirely fulfilled.

What made you realize that there is potential in applying blockchain technology to football? In particular, which key problem(s) with the traditional football does your product/platform solve?
As a football agency, we have found that there are many financial/operational inefficiencies within the industry.
- Football is an ecosystem in itself, that does not operate as a byproduct of any single economy, but rather has ties to a diversity of countries, currencies, capital inflows, and football market dynamics.
- The unfortunate reality of the industry is that corruption does exist, and FIFA is doing all they can to crack down on financial fair play, and require transparency from an ownership/transaction
   perspective.
- There are very few opportunities for the fans of the world’s #1 sport to give back to the game and engage in depth.
- Clubs receive sponsorship, broadcasting, merchandise sales, tickets sales, and transfer fee revenue in different currencies, and at each exchange/transaction point, the club loses money in transaction
   fees.
- Payment delays are rampant throughout the industry

Have other businesses like your run ICO’s previously?
No, we are the first of our kind. To date, there has not been another ICO that aims to create a financial infrastructure for a sports platform and ultimately for an entire sports industry.

What will the STARS Token be used for?
The STARS Token is a token redeemable for football merchandise, tickets, player and club memorabilia, streaming media, and other football related goods and services on the Stars Group Platform.

If you have more questions like these, lets discuss on here or on our telegram: https://t.me/joinchat/GoU6oUialWNk6L1dhaPLsw

Thank you for the information provided!
At the moment there are not many comments, at what stage of development is your project? Or can I see all the information that interests me in the telegram?

We are currently in our public pre-sale now, it will last until the beginning of January. A lot of information is on our Telegram, as well as, our team being on throughout the day to chat in real time. For complete information you can check out our WP and summary on our site. Here is the link to our WP if you'd like to check it out: http://starsgroup.io/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/Stars-Group_December.pdf

it's all cool, but you should have paid more attention to the forum and not just throw a link and hope that someone will explore the project by yourself.

Thank you serhishulak for the feedback! That is good to know moving forward and the team appreciates it. Thank you for checking our project out also.

Our CEO and Founder, Daniel Taylor, was able to sit down with London Sporting and talk about the state of the football industry, blockchain technology, and if cryptocurrency is here to stay! We are excited to share his interview with you all to give you a better perspective of Stars Group and why we created our product!

"From a transparency perspective, it’s the best and worst part of the sport – what’s actually happening behind the scenes? How do we think about adding transparency to an industry where you have a governing body like UEFA, calling for transparency, but have no method to implement that."

If you'd like to take a look at the whole interview, check it out here: https://youtu.be/EeQgnZOFb4M

Have you asked, what is STARS token?
Have you been curious about its implementation?
Do you want to know how exactly you'll use it?

Well we wanted to answer these questions for you and the time has come! Here is, STARS Token!  

Let us know if you have more questions after!

I can see the impressive quality of your advisors, great figures and even football legends. I hope this project develops properly. Will these figures publicize the project in social media? If you do, the project will grow without a doubt. I will follow your news and if I can I will participate in the ICO.

Thanks for checking out our project! Some of our advisors such as George Boateng, Vasilis Torosidis, and Jan Olde Riekerink have posted about us on their social. We appreciate the support!
