Great interview done by CheddarTV with one of our advisors, Andrew Duplessie, all about crypto, blockchain, and BlocSide Sports!

Where do I know that name, Andrew Duplessie?

I recognize him from American Horror Story. You guys are really getting all types to help get the word out about Blocside. I think it's a good call.

Will there be any sort of whitelist required?

[Hopernumbs]

Blocside sports looks like a unique project that has a good market. How did you guys come up with this idea? It's really interesting and I haven't seen anything that compares.

[Dipsomaniac]

Nice project. I like the idea. Do you require KYC to invest in BlocSide sports token sale?

Great question, Dipsomaniac! We do require KYC to purchase BlocSide Sports MVP Token!

Thanks for your help.

Did you guys make any team changes when you rebranded from Stars Group to Blocside Sports?

We did not make any team changes as we rebranded. We rebranded solely due to our focus on wanting our name to completely represent our vision, mission, and integration of blockchain and football. Our team is still stable and consistent.

That is great because I really liked your team and goals as Stars Group. I'm glad to see that nothing has changed except the name (which I really like, btw.)

So the public sale started 4 days ago right? How is it going so far?

That's a great question actually -- we decided to postpone our public sale. Unfortunately, we worked extremely hard, and are continuing to do so, but realized that we are not 100% ready to release yet. In full transparency, we are working to finalize a couple items, and wanted to make sure we did so in the most efficient manner.

Stay tuned and we will keep you updated once we have a finalized date.

I'm glad you guys are being up front about it and would like to get things complete and working perfectly before you guys started the sale. That will probably make the sale more successful, honestly. Thanks and I can't wait to find out when the sale will start.

Have you guys had a lot of interest so far? What's the benefit of buying MVP tokens right now?

The benefit to purchasing MVP token is that it will function first as a gateway for consumers and fans to purchase exclusive goods and services on the BlocSide Platform. Such goods and services
will likely include, but would not be limited to, merchandise, player and club/stadium memorabilia, food and beverages, and tickets (single-game, group, corporate, mini-season and full-season packages). General consumers and fans will be eligible to receive an exclusive discount if the aforementioned transactions are processed through the use of MVP Tokens.

Thanks for the reply. Glad to see that you guys have some exclusive goods and services to provide for us football fans. I like the idea of having a discount if you use MVP tokens.

What does MVP stand for?

What does the team think is going to be the best feature about Blocside Sports? What do you think users are going to love the most about the platform?

[unknownbtcoiner]

Does BlocSide have any major partners? If so, who and what are they bringing to the project?

[BlocSide_Sports]

How big is the team at Blocside now? Any new recruits?

The team has grown by a few people and continuing to expand. Recently, we have brought on a junior developer, graphic designer, and are looking to hire a Director of Engineering!

Thanks for the support, Hopernumbs! We came up with this idea through working in the industry and being able to see the inefficiencies that are occurring and we wanted to change those!

What does MVP stand for?

MVP stands for "Most Valuable Player", since we are working within the football, but more broadly sports industry, we thought naming it MVP would fit perfectly.

What is the main purpose of MVP tokens? Basically, what can you spend them on and do with them?

Great question, HerrHeimlich! As one of our goals is to recreate fan engagement, the MVP Token will be redeemable for football merchandise, tickets, player and club memorabilia, streaming media, and other football-related goods and services that will be on the BlocSide Platform.

That sounds like a great way to get the community engaged. I'm excited to see the memorabilia. When will this merch be on the platform and available for the public to purchase?

We are planning to release items onto the platform in April 2018 and the release of our protoype in later this month! Keep an eye out or join our telegram to stay updated: https://t.me/joinchat/GUfSEkialWNbp9ASQtIXkA

That's coming up really soon. Sweet. Thanks guys.

[bananafana]

This project appears to be really unique to me. I haven't heard of anything like it. Do you know of any competitors?

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.

That's great. No competition means that you guys have an early start to get your name out there and be the first. That's good news.

That makes perfect sense. I like it. I'm a relatively new football fan, so it didn't ring a bell. It definitely fits well.

You are very welcome. It's rare to find projects like this that have a perfect market with a good product. What is the biggest inefficiency in the industry that Blocside hopes to solve and how?

[GoBelle]

What types of things need to be worked out before the sale starts? I'm ready to buy some MVP.

Great timing GoBelle! We have finished all the final touches, and our public sale will start on Thursday, March 29th at 11am PST/2pm EST!! Spread the word

[deeltje]

I'm really excited to see all the merch and services that will be coming to BlocSide. How will users earn MVP tokens?

We're extremely excited to be able to bring this to fans and allow them to feel more connected to their club and players like ever before. Besides purchasing MVP tokens to use on our platform for goods and services, you will earn rewards through your activity on platform, interactions, through using MVP tokens to purchase items instead of other currencies, etc.

There will be lots of ways to earn rewards 

Thanks for the explanation. I like the ecosystem of Blocside Sports. Rewarding active users is a great way to keep people interested.
