Nova Token White Paper
Nova Token Team

Nova Blitz is a fully-functional cross platform card game, and will be the first game to implement the Nova Token. It already features more than 300 cards, and will feature up to 50 new cards each month.

In parallel, we will integrate the Nova Token into Nova Blitz and create the tools required for other developers to build on top of the Nova Token. Building the Nova Token on top of the Nova Blitz infrastructure minimizes risk and maximizes speed to market.


Why Nova Tokens?

In online card games, players want to trade and sell their cards, and they cannot. Players want their cards to grow in value, but that can never happen. Even worse, your cards are not your own - they are licensed from the developer, and the developer can revoke that license at any time.

Nova Tokens (“NVT”) solves this by enabling the creation, sale, and trading of cards across any card game. Nova Tokens can also be used to enter in-game tournaments and pay for other in-game purchases. This allows NVT to completely replace fiat currencies in any game that implements it. Adopting Nova Tokens will allow Nova Blitz and other games to grow revenue to $100M or more per year. This growth will encourage future games to adopt Nova Tokens for trading, buying, and selling their cards, fueling even more growth.

Players benefit because they own their cards and can sell and trade them freely. Players will also benefit through entering and winning tournaments, without cheating and fraud.

Developers benefit because they earn 90% of Nova Token revenue, compared to 70% on Android, iOS, and Steam. And, developers will receive funding to integrate Nova Tokens.

Players: Free Cards

In addition to being able to buy, sell, and trade their cards, token holders earn cards through proof of stake. Stake your NVT on a game, and when the game releases new cards, you’ll earn copies of them. The number of cards that can be earned is proportional to the amount of NVT staked, so if you stake a large balance you might earn hundreds of copies of a single Legendary card. You will then be able to do whatever you want with the cards, including selling them to other players for 100% profit.

Developers: Free Money

Developers will integrate NVT into their games because of the large number of players who demand ownership of their game assets, because they can acquire players more cheaply, and because developers will receive a portion of revenues generated by the platform. As the platform generates income from use in Nova Blitz and other games, it will return that income to new and existing developers to enable them to grow their player bases, and to assist them in integrating the Nova Token into their games.

Earn New Cards

Token holders earn cards through proof of stake. Stake your NVT on a game, and when that game releases new cards, you’ll earn copies of them. The more NVT you own, the more cards you can earn. The number of cards that can be earned is proportional to the amount of NVT staked, so if you stake a large balance you might earn hundreds of copies of a single Legendary card. You’ll then be able to do whatever you want with the cards, including selling them to other players for 100% profit. And if you own a lot of NVT, you’re going to get more cards than you can use, so you’ll want to sell them.

Tournaments

Current esports tournaments are rare, exclusive, and open to cheating and fraud. The Nova Token smart contract solves all these problems. Any game that implements the contract can run tournaments and know they will be safe, secure, and free from cheating and fraud. Entry fees and prizes are managed by the tournament smart contract. Prizes can be Nova Tokens, a card, or another type of in-game item.
Players can also use the contract to organize their own tournaments. This feature allows an unlimited number of tournaments to run, so tournaments aren’t just for the top players any more.

Card Exchange

To buy, sell, and trade cards with minimal overhead from fees, and maximal liquidity, we’re implementing the Card Exchange. This is an Ethereum-based side chain built to take advantage of the Plasma protocol when it launches version 1.0 of the Card Exchange will allow users to post and fill buy/sell orders, and will mediate orders to ensure the order is filled at the listed price, with unused funds being returned to the filler. Version 2.0 will upgrade the card exchange to include an auction/bid system.
Transaction fees will be low, and any profits made on transaction fees will be returned to game developers who integrate NVT, to provide additional funds for game development, marketing, and user acquisition.

Developers benefit because they earn 90% of Nova Token revenue,
so, where is the 10% revenue will go ?

Maybe i"m wrong but most of these new coins look to rape new ignoreant investors. I don't see how I can benefit after you took so much?

Hello Dev. What are you news plan  what are the new exchange  Cryptopia , Yobit and Cryptopia ...

[NovaToken]

Developers benefit because they earn 90% of Nova Token revenue,
so, where is the 10% revenue will go ?

Good question - it's not as clear as it should be in the white paper. The 10% also goes back to developers, just not directly. That 10% first covers any costs related to platform development, infrastructure, security, ongoing global legal compliance. Rather than every developer having to spend those costs, we can significantly reduce those costs by sharing them across multiple developers. It's unlikely those activities will take the full 10%, so any leftover money after those costs is added to the pool of money for supporting new developers.

Of course, a developer can also make their own back-end platform for trading, buying, and selling Nova Tokens and token cards, and retain the full 100% of revenue. We don't believe developers will do this, because it will be significantly more expensive to develop and scale. More likely, we expect the reverse - that developers will make open source contributions to the platform.

Hello Dev. What are you news plan  what are the new exchange  Cryptopia , Yobit and Cryptopia ...

We've got a giant PR, news, and press campaign going on over the next 7 weeks. As for exchanges, we're in discussions with exchanges so we're listed shortly after the token sale concludes. You'll see announcements on that in the future.

Hi,

Can I interest you in translating whitepaper to Romanian?

[nizran]

The 10% will go to Developer Funding Pool to help out Nova’s development community.

Developers benefit because they earn 90% of Nova Token revenue,

[ezioauditore]

It is definitely more beneficial for the developers as they are able to retain 90% of their profits compared to only 70% as the Google Play Store and Apple App Store are taking a 30% cut from the profits of in-app purchases. Steam is also taking a 30% cut from game purchases and Downloadable Content (DLCs). I believe this will incentivize developers to use Nova Token as a great compliment to their current publisher, just like how Spotify urges their users in 2015 to subscribe through their website instead of the App Store and the savings are passed down to their customers. Good luck.

[Wednesdaycat]

i do not know much about card games, is the market so big? i'd have to make a serious study of them and will anticipate every updates of this project.

Interesting concept for a Blockchain driven card game... but I am not so sure it will take off. Will keep my eye on it.
