Hello dear
BitcoinTalk community!
We are the
GLDFY (read as Goldify) team, and we would like to
ask for your expert feedback on our project.What is GLDFY?GLDFY is the monetization service for Free-to-Play games. GLDFY uses the spare time of gamers’ PC activity (e.g. while the owners are sleeping or at work) for mining crypto. Gamers are paid in a simple and in-demand way - with in-game goods. Speaking from the position of a tokenholder, GLDFY has a utility token that allows a token holder to use a share of the whole computational network capacity to mine altcoins for themselves, in a similar way to cloudmining.
The user experience is really simple:
1. A gamer installs an application for Windows that works in the background.
2. The GLDFY service integrates such computers into a single high-capacity computational network that mines cryptocurrency.
3. The GLDFY team signs contracts with game developers and acquires virtual in-game currency. This is then transferred to gamers’ accounts in return for the cryptocurrency.
What do we have right now?GLDFY is not just an idea, but a working business on the cutting edge of the games industry and cryptocurrencies. In the three months since the Open Beta Test was launched, the GLDFY desktop app (download it here:
http://gldfy.com/en) has acquired an audience of 55,000 users (mostly through organic traffic) and is already generating some profit, as well as receiving items in games such as World of Tanks, World of Warships, Archage, Warface and others.
Who are we?The GLDFY team is made up of 22 experienced people (the average age of our team is 29) with great track records in different IT businesses - most importantly in the video game industry. Both advisors and developers are veterans of the gaming industry, and have worked with Wargaming.net, Perfect World, Nexon, Activision, Square Enix, Digital Extremes, Nival, Electronic Arts, Ubisoft, 1C, Gaijin Entertainment and many more established companies.
We know games, from both development and publishing perspectives. With all our knowledge, we came to the understanding that there are two major and complex issues that we can solve with just one product:
1) The tiny share of paying users in most games - usually between 0.5% and 5% of the whole audience.
2) Mining and crypto economics in general have a really high threshold of occurrence, and the average person does not really want to get into the details.
Wallets, mining pools, exchanges, tokens and coins, which are simple and understandable for you, is like rocket science for the average gamer, who just wants a few extra days of Premium in his favourite game. With that in mind, we enable a huge mass of ~95% non-paying users to bring income to the developers, through mining crypto for GLDFY and receiving fiat money to their bank accounts.
Why is GDLFY good for gamers?● Simple registration and mining process
● Low withdrawal threshold, no withdrawal fee
● GLDFY can be run on multiple computers under the same account
● Funds are withdrawn directly to a user’s account in a particular game or service
Why GLDFY is good for developers?● Game developers and publishers receive fiat payments for 100% of the value of virtual goods that they transfer to GLDFY users
● GLDFY does not place ads in the client app, and nor does it lure players to other games.
● GLDFY does not meddle with the game design: GLDFY does not create new entities, does not allow the selling of in-game goods outside of the game.
● GLDFY does not disrupt the existing monetization logic of a game: GLDFY does not allow gamers to turn in-game currency into real money, does not turn in-game goods into cryptocurrency and withdraw it elsewhere, and does not allow users to gain virtual currency to spend in other games.
What do we want from you?GLDFY is a project which is already live, but we really want to scale it globally. For that we need cryptocommunity support and advice. Currently, we would really appreciate the feedback of the BitcoinTalk community - the people of the Future World
We have drafted the GLDFY White Paper with all the details, and we want to ask you to take a
look our WP: http://gldfy.com/static/wp/GLDFY_White_Paper_0.6.pdfHere is the list of questions we have for you (if you have already read the WP)
What questions do you have in mind after reading?
Would you be interested in participating in such a project?
Do you see our future ICO as viable?
We would appreciate if, along with your thoughts, you could leave a few words about yourself and area of your expertise. This is not necessary but very welcomed. We have gathered a really awesome pool of advisers from the video game industry, but we need more crypto experts whom we really hope to meet here. Maybe that’s you? :-)
If you don’t like the web forum format we are happy to invite you to
our Telegram chat https://t.me/joinchat/AGYT9RHGGSmZDUsywZvDDA. At this moment it is open to everyone, and our team can answer all your questions there.
Thank you for your time! We appreciate all kinds of feedback on our project as we do value the opinion of the BitcoinTalk community!
