Unikrn's Mega Holiday Gaming Extravaganza: Win Big All Month

We've got a month of festivities and giveaways planned to thank our fans for our biggest year to date. There's no better way to end 2017!
This was a huge year to be a Unikrn fan. Not only did we launch BIG — our CS:GO team which rose to top 10 in the world with a stellar underdog performance at the last major — but we've radically expanded the amount and type of esports and gaming content we bring you here on our site. We've attended over a dozen live events to bring you on-site interviews, insights and culture videos, launched multiple esports series, set up a Berlin studio with regular esports content, renovated our jackpots system and connekt systems to allow you bet, earn and win gaming prizes worldwide absolutely free.

That's not to mention our work with brick-and-mortar casinos, our acquisition of Leet and our unprecedented UnikoinGold launch, which broke all records for esports and gaming crypto token sales. Soon, Unikrn will be the only gaming site you need, all brought together with the decentralized token of esports and gaming.

As you can see, we're excited. This was a historic year for us, and we're sharing that success with our fans!



You're not dreaming: this is a month-long, four stage extravaganza.

  • Dec 11-25 we're running a BIG giveaway on social media, just confirm some social media actions, open or visit your Unikrn Wallet, and join us with Connekt to maximize your chances to win. Visit us here for more information.
  • Starting Dec 20, we're giving away UnikoinGold to our followers on social media, which you can use to enter jackpots on our platform.
  • Dec 25–Jan 5 we're doubling the UKG you earn for playing Dota 2, CS:GO or League of Legends with Connekt. It's easy to start; sign up and start winning just for playing your favorite titles. No cost, a maximum of 10 earned UKG in your wallet at a time. After 10, you'll need to dump some into our jackpots, which will be easy because...
  • Jan 1 we're giving away some huge jackpot prizes all day. We mean huge. We're bringing in some amazing to-be-announced sponsors to give you gaming peripherals on top of huge skins, BIG swag and other prizes.

Tweet

It all starts by sharing that Tweet, signing up for a Unikrn Wallet and Connekt (absolutely free) and start entering our jackpots. You're going to be glad you did.

Making UnikoinGold More Accessible to Customers

I know many of our customers are eager for an easier way to acquire additional UnikoinGold, and we certainly can and will do this.

We’ve also heard the voices of fans asking us to reopen direct selling to make buying UKG easy; we cannot do this.

But we have been working with exchanges around the world to give esports, gaming and crypto enthusiasts an opportunity to easily buy UKG from reputable outlets. This process has taken an immense amount of work: it’s harder to get listed on a major exchange than it once was. That’s okay, though, we’re working hard to make UnikoinGold widely available to our customers who reside in hundreds of countries worldwide.

I promise you this work is months in the making, and we will get there. In the meantime we want to create some more opportunities for our customers to easily acquire UKG.

Today, I’m happy to bring two more exchanges into our folds: CoinHub and Braveno. Each brings uniquely valuable traits to the UKG ecosystem that we know will benefit our users, now and in the future.

CoinHub will allow our users to purchase UKG directly with FIAT currency, which is a direct response to our community asking for easier ways to exchange the token. In addition to USD, Euros and SGD, CoinHub will still allow crypto exchanges for Bitcoin and Ethereum. Although CoinHub is new, they’re building a quality regulated platform which works well for our business. CoinHub is available to users in the Middle East and Europe. CoinHub will come online with UnikoinGold within the next 24 hours.

Braveno is an exchange built for companies and developers and should help potential platform partners utilize the Unikrn platform more easily by creating UKG liquidity. This will become increasingly important as our platform continues to grow in functions, experiences and users. Braveno should come online sometime later this week.

In a landscape where overnight fixes and seemingly instantaneous expansions appear to be the norm, there are users who purchased UnikoinGold to use on Unikrn, and these users experiences are our top priority.

I promise that we will not lose sight of the long-term goals that were themselves the fuel that gave UnikoinGold the largest token sale in esports and gaming history. We have consistently encouraged users who were interested in buying UnikoinGold to buy our token to use it on our platform. We will continue to build features that make UKG fun and engaging. The addition of these exchanges will facilitate transactions our community needs to engage with our platform and potential partners need to join us.

The fact is, we’re a business with active token applications, we are continuing to improve token uses, and we are working on building a network of highly respectable exchanges. Blockchain wasn’t built overnight. It takes immense effort to create “sudden” success.

We’ve been doing that work and we are continuing to do that work. In the meantime, we will continue to expand our platform piece by piece to give our users more use cases with a long-term view of how UnikoinGold will become the decentralized token of esports and gaming instead of a instant bubble that served “investors” over users.

To thank our loyal esports and gaming audience for helping power our success in 2017, we have a series of holiday giveaways, jackpots and extra UKG earnings from our platform planned throughout December. You will absolutely want more details.


UnikoinGold’s foundation is strong, but I’m most excited about what we’ll be building on and announcing about that foundation for the end of this year and throughout 2018. Buckle up, it’s just about to get real! There will be more exchanges coming.

any news on this? no activity on social media, no updates so ofcourse price is falling, but that musnt mean anything if theay start to be active etc. so far it looks a lil bit scammy to me, cause they raised so much and they are event listed on some bigger exchanges like bittrex, polo, kraken. but it has no point in selling now, when the price is low.

Not sure what you perceive as scammy. We are operating our platform and providing services to those interested.
Meanwhile we are working on exchange listings, expanding into markets and developing new services.

Let us know if you have a specific inquiry, question or concern.

What happened to my UKG? They used to be gold and now they're silver now. I kept logging into the website everyday to be able to keep adding it but now they're silver. How come?  Huh  Huh  Huh

The currency on the Unikrn platform until recently were 'Unikoins'.
These have been converted into UnikoinSilver with the launch of that and UnikoinGold
UnikoinGold was only attainable through tokensale purchase and skins-to-UKG trades.

I have another question. I already bind and linked my steam and Dota2 but my games did not count or updated. Last month it was fine all are updated when i click manual refresh but now its not even updating at all.

Due to an update we were no longer able to gather DOTA2 Ranked data, which caused the Connekt DOTA2 feature to no longer work, we are looking into it to resolve this.
For the time being we have enabled UKS/UKG earning through connekt for DOTA2 non-ranked matches until we have access to ranked data again.
Once Ranked Data becomes available to us again, we will disable earning for non-ranked matches and enable it again for ranked matches.

I am having around 300 UKG, in unikrn.com, how can I transfer them into myetherwallet account???

There are two currencies on Unikrn.com (aside from real-money betting accounts) that are UnikoinGold and UnikoinSilver.
UnikoinGold can be withdrawn, UnikoinSilver can not, it is not a cryptocurrency.

does anybody know what the ico price was?
it looks like it bombed pretty hard.
since there is no official thread i guess this threadis the only source of information at the moment.
do they have slack or a telegram group?

We have a Discord! https://discord.gg/NXkejuN

Guys how do you know which exchange is UKG going to be listed next ? AWhere they announce that ?

If exchanges that we work with list UKG, we will announce this on our official channels. Twitter (@UnikrnCo / @UnikoinGold) and or Discord are the primary channels of direct communication.

What was the ICO price per token for UKG? I suggest we wait for a dump first before buying @ Kucoin. Cuban is invested in this company and a lot of other big name personalites as well. This coin looks like a long term hold rather than the fast and easy dump .

You can find all information regarding the tokensale on https://unikoingold.com/sale and https://unikoingold.com/faq .

Anyone know how we can use the unikrn silver? Cuz i think Unikoin Gold there. Dev are you active here? Please response

You can use it to bet with or enter Jackpots! More to come, see the roadmap and future vision in the whitepaper! https://unikoingold.com/whitepaper

Cuban is invested in this company and a lot of other big name personalites as well.

You will be kind to post some proofs of what you said
Didn't see the articles sorry.

You can find some of the biggest backers at the bottom of this page. Including Cuban and Ashton Kutcher, but also big Blockchain funds and investors.

UnikoinGold Delivery Begins Tomorrow Morning!

The day has finally come.

UnikoinGold recently shattered all token sale records and surpassed 127,000,000 tokens sold with over 112,000 ETH collected. In a matter of a few weeks UnikoinGold quickly became the world’s largest esports & gaming token sale. Today marks the next step: the delivery of the tokens.

UnikoinGold is no longer available for purchase from Unikrn, however users will soon be able to purchase tokens from exchanges — we are on track to announce our first official exchange within 10 days.

Unikrn has verified timestamps and user addresses, as well as proper deployment and token creation. We were happy to have worked with CoinCircle and Zeppelin Solutions to fully audit our contract code which can be found online.

The vesting period begins on Saturday, November 4, 2017 at 7:00:00 am Pacific Time. Sale user tokens deliver starting automatically on November 5, 2017 at 7:00:00 am Pacific Time.

For additional information, see Rahul Sood’s (CEO) statements regarding how the UnikoinGold wallet functions, the problems it solved and how it will roll out along with other aspects of the UnikoinGold ecosystem.

Once again stay tuned for exchange announcements and be sure to let us know if you have any questions! Also expect more applications besides Skin-O-Matic, and UnikoinGold Wallet on or around November 13th.

We have an important message now that the UnikoinGold crowdsale is closed. There's never been anything like this, and we have important updates.

But, first — Thank you.

UnikoinGold's crowdsale surpassed every other esports and gaming token sale to date. At over 110,000 ETH in sales — not to mention the bounties of skins for the world's most popular competitive games — there's not much that we can say to express the magnitude of this token's success. It's hard to express, but it's clear that you, the community, recognize it. You joined with extraordinary numbers. You see UnikoinGold as the soon-to-be decentralized token of all esports and gaming.

We're glad you've joined us in this historic moment.

Now, as we look ahead to implementing the token and applications, we'll continue to have exciting news about UnikoinGold. This is the end of the crowdsale. It's the beginning of the token.

Most importantly. this is a rebirth for esports and gaming. UnikoinGold is already poised to disrupt entire industries to make experiences, products, games and events more accessible, more interactive and more decentralized than they've ever been.

So, thank you, but also, thank each other. Most of our sales came from individual buyers who believe in our company, our message and our plan. From 112 countries, this community has made their voices heard, just as the community for the original Unikoin compelled us to imbue more value into it in the first place.

Here we are. Here's what you need to know right this minute.

Keep an eye on Unikrn.com for updates on UnikoinGold, its applications and our partners. They will include updates to our platform, our European real-money rollout, updates on the UnikoinGold wallet, jackpots and ways to earn UnikoinGold. Look forward to new applications as early as November 13th.

We're already offering UnikoinGold tournaments in partnership with ChallengeMe.GG; don't miss UKG's earliest online events!

Remember that UnikoinGold will be issued around November 5, 2017. Although UnikoinGold is no longer for sale, you can still trade in your skins.

Around October 25, UnikoinGold distribution channels will be locked down, meaning it will be impossible to change the delivery address or details. This is for security, so if you might need anything changed, contact support@unikoingold.com immediately! Purchasers must make sure they did not use an exchange like Coinbase to purchase, and if so they must go through the process of updating their wallet address. Contact us immediately with any questions!

Stay tuned as legacy Unikoin wallets will be wiped clean and replaced with UnikoinSilver after November 5.

So, again, thank you. We hope you share your excitement about the UnikoinGold era in gaming and esports. It's going to be big.

is there going to be a masternode for this coin?

This is an ERC-20 Token on the Ethereum Blockchain.

is there going to be a slack or telegram for up to date details?

The is a discord channel! https://discord.gg/NXkejuN. Slack was ditched for security reasons (too many phishing and scamming and no way to mitigate it) and better alignment with the user demographic of the token.

Check out my video on how to trade in your CSGO skins for UKG tokens.

Project seems solid, but the marketcap is too high IMO

Well, I guess if we were just a whitepaper with a team of 10 people and no product, no brand, no licenses, no community, no users, no fans, no technology, no traction, no revenue --- then yeah, I'd agree completely.  Smiley

Will we be able to store tokens in MEW?

Yes. UnikoinGold is an ERC20 token. In fact, Unikrn has named MEW as one of the wallets they encourage you to use for participating in the tokensale.
76  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The Power of Ethereum - CEO of UnikoinGold, Rahul Sood on: October 18, 2017, 09:31:50 AM
good read. I honestly think Rahul is one of those influencers tha really influences ethereum and how people see/use it. He's someone to pay attention to along with his ico.

Biased here, but very much agree.

See also his other writing:
https://medium.com/@rahulsood/esports-meets-cryptocurrency-a486ac3aaca - Going into why they opted for cryptocurrency and how they will apply and add to the overall cryptocurrency ecosystem.

He has also done two or three livestreams where he answers questions from the community and interested parties regarding UnikoinGold. There may be some slightly outdated information as things changed throughout the preparation of the tokensale, but the overall vision and answers mostly still apply.

- (Unikrn Team) Token Sale Talk - AMA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k_ViiJTidiA
Various questions from the community, answered by Rahul Sood (CEO of Unikrn, previously Microsoft, HP and Voodoo PC), Tom Lempke (GM Germany, was involved with Mousesports and now BIG), Kingsley Edwards (LEET.gg, Las Vegas Bitcoin RogueGG) Meetup, and Robin Nygard (Unikrn's esports trader)

- Rahul Sood AMA: UnikoinGOLD, Cryptocurrency and Esports https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QE8wbkp_ct4
Various questions from the community answered by Rahul Sood.

- Bulls on Wall Street talks to Kingsley Edwards (live from BlockCon LA), talking UnikoinGold, Blockchain etc. https://youtu.be/GZjBVTYkEZw
Mostly regarding basics of why and how blockchain technology is different, how UnikoinGold fits into it all and where it and esports are going. (Audience for this livestream weren't so blockchain aware just yet)


Unikrn team is very aware of the Ethereum, Bitcoin and altcoin culture and ecosystem. They see what's happening and also see many ICOs that are shit. Some of them have been in cryptocurrency for years. They have been educating those that engage with UnikoinGold. Sharing safety concerns, best practice and answering questions regarding cryptocurrency safety for those new to it. As you can see in this article, he shared his balanced thoughts on how to evaluate tokensales and projects. This is a huge leap that many newcomers to cryptocurrency fail to learn until their first few tokensales/ICO. Very well-intentioned and integrity driven!

Rahul and actually the entire Unikrn team is very integrity driven and aren't afraid to show it or call something out.
Previously Rahul has been a fierce opponent of Skin Gambling in Counter-Strike, which was fully unregulated betting without any kind of restriction or verification of age.
In fact, the operators are so sketchy they do not share even the basics of their back-end and had no third-party reviewing their code whatsoever.
This means that those operators could do as they please, set themselves up for wins or certain customers with a loss. Plus there was no legal responsibility whatsoever.
Hence why Valve ultimately shut down a lot of them, though they keep popping up.

They were also founding members of ESIC, the 'Esports Integrity Coalition' whose mission statement is:
Quote
To be the recognised guardian of the sporting integrity of esports and to take responsibility for disruption, prevention, investigation and prosecution of all forms of cheating, including, but not limited to, match manipulation and doping.
Various betting partners, regulators and esports event or competition organizers are proactive members of this coalition.

what's the difference between unikoingold and other game tokens?

I made a comparison sheet here. It is for my personal use. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1BemK22jE3YNG-085ZoQhnTzP2fO0qpXArg7GsLHTj2Q/edit?usp=sharing
NOT by Unikrn and in no officially represents Unikrn in any way.

For specific details regarding vision and roadmap I suggest you look at their whitepaper : https://static.unikrn.com/4242/unikrn_bm/doc/whitepaper_en.pdf

There is also lots to say about UnikoinGold being different from most tokensales or new cryptocurrency projects, however main differences being: traditional rounds for company backing and building the token, impressive backers, existing tech and userbase which they are expanding. Everything legally compliant and working with regulators. Their legal team includes the best firms for gambling related legislation and a firm that is regarded the #1 in dealing with cryptocurrency legislation and regulation compliance. Team is pretty damn impressive too and with very deep ties and experience in esports, gaming, cryptocurrency and building tech (blockchain) applications.

They are definitely building and working to become THE token that services the entirety of the esports ecosystem.

Saw this article from another thread.

https://www.coindesk.com/regulated-cryptocurrency-betting-just-got-big-boost-europe/

Unikrn managed to get a license in Malta, which makes most of Europe available for fiat betting in esports. This is absolutely insane and it goes to show that crypto can be legal if country's make the legislation.

Thoughts?

Many companies of this kind will be established in the future.

The use of cryptocurrency as a medium on online gambling bypass some of the law which regulates use of fiat. This is one of the best thing that crypto currency has.

This is just the start of the revolution for online gambling and expect more countries to release this kind of betting platform.

Unikrn does not use cryptocurrency to bypass or skirt gambling laws. It works within existing legislation and with regulating bodies to ensure things are compliant.
However this token allows for a lot easier global servicing of esports fans. Where possible Unikrn will look to expand and acquire licenses to better service users of that country.
Hence why the EU expansion and interest from Asia is such a great development.

See also Malta Gaming Authority saying they are experimenting with cryptocurrency as they can no longer ignore it:
Quote
Malta’s gaming regulatory body is proceeding with a ‘sandbox test’ of its cryptocurrency controls before allowing Malta-licensed online gambling operators to accept digital currencies such as Bitcoin.
Quote
In July, the MGA released a report indicating that the regulator was “committed to allow the use of crypto-currencies by its licensees in the immediate future.”
https://calvinayre.com/2017/09/27/bitcoin/malta-gaming-authority-cryptocurrency-sandbox-test/

See also the whitepaper for differences in full and limited jurisdictions.
https://static.unikrn.com/4242/unikrn_bm/doc/whitepaper_en.pdf

It's a great news when bitcoin also got accept for eSports transaction. Of course it will attract more people for purchase item mall using bitcoin for example , imagine how much people will demand for it especially when eSports continue to grow even bigger than yesterday from time to time !

Esports i think already exist but it is just now that they integrated bitcoin as one of the currencies for betting. Because it would be easier to transfer bitcoin rather that fiat currency into the site. You must have your account verified if ever you don't have an online wallet. Esports are famous now adays especially to fans that doesnt wanna go out to bet their own money.

Please note, UnikoinGold is an ERC20 (Ethereum) Token. While it will be tradable on exchange for Bitcoin, you will not be able to bet with Bitcoin on the Unikrn platform.

So is this the Token Mark Cuban is involved in? If yes, it would be fun to watch this token. I imagine this would have  a strong backing. How come he is not on the board?

Yes it is backed by Mark Cuban, but also various other big investors. A-listers, big funds and blockchain funds. See bottom of this document: https://static.unikrn.com/1337/doc/about-unikrn-doc.pdf

He's in an even better position, he is a company investor (and tokensale participant) and was actually the one that advised Unikrn to look into cryptocurrency. If I recall correctly... 2 years ago!
So while he may not be listed on the board of advisors, he certainly is making his impact and contributions.
