From Devin Seto in Discord and on Twitter:

Block and Chain community! We have been working hard and you’ve been wonderful in keeping our spirits high. Now that BlockFight is live and you’re playing, we wanted to start rewarding those of you who’ve kept us going.

So starting this week, we will be recognizing those of you who are enjoying the game. Head into our Discord by 20:00 PST Sunday Night each week, and post a screenshot of your player profile (click your player name in the top right corner of your screen to bring that up).

Each week we will reward a group of you for different reasons. This week, we will give the top 20 players - the 20 of you who play THE MOST rounds - an exclusive, limited edition set of dice to use in the game. It doesn’t matter what currency you play with, just enjoy the game any way you like.

So head to our Discord channel at http://discord.haloplatform.tech/ to say hi, and start rolling those dice!

this team seems pretty good, promising project too and it's awesome the game was launched, wow!

but......jesus fuck the price has tanked (even post swap or whatever it is you did to up the amt of coins).  right now this just looks like yet ANOTHER ICO bag for everyone to hold, like 90% of the coins launched in 2018! lol.  better get your market going or disappear into no-mans-land like so many others.   hoping you guys make it.

Yea it's tanked like the majority of other coins. The only thing is, is that if you had reinvested your coins consistently from ICO then you'd have 3-4x the amount that you started with from rewards and that greatly offsets it. the swap was 800:1, but honestly the swap had nothing to do with price tanking, it's more or less the lack of new people being introduced to Halo, which hopefully changes soon. The team is amazing and the Halo blockchain is extremely under the radar, mainly because they didn't want to hype anything like Tron or Vechain did without having a product to show for it. Halo is one of the fastest blockchains out there and its free to send/receive. They have masternodes for actual rewards (unlike VTHO), games, and much more to come.

I think at some point the team is going to have to start hyping their product and getting more exposed since they have quite a bit done.

[jchi2210]

I would also like to point out that whatever price that CMC is showing currently is likely wrong or not accurate considering most of Halo's volume is on the Halo DEX here: https://halodex.io

HaloDEX should soon be listed as a market on CMC, just waiting for some API and backend updates which should happen this week.

yes that is correct i'll give you that, BUT that is only the case for investors to begin with, which most have probably done.  halo needs new people and fresh money along with some market making volume, otherwise it is just another sleeping coin with what...1k people using it or that even care???

you guys have your own dex market yes?  i know you have some coins on it but more is needed.  can halo not get on other exchanges or is this as usual way to expensive? (exchanges are fucked to ask so much money to begin with).

it just seems from the outside that halo makes themselves appear bigger than they truly are, and maybe trying to take on too much at once.  i hope you have something concrete to show and get promotion, market volumes and price off the ground, if not it'll just stay dead. 

the REAL worry is with the dump in price, people don't wanna see another "oh sorry we're out of money, price dumped, we didn't manage our shit properly and we're closing up shop, sorry byyyeee".  if that happens........oh man........

I think the idea is to work out the last few small bugs then really ramp up marketing. They recently hired a new marketing guy from what I heard. But first they'd like to have the new backend update out that speeds up MN dapp even more as well as fix some small issues on DEX like rounding issue and hopefully max button.

Halo does have it's own DEX, https://halodex.io and they are working on adding more coins as we speak. They just recently added flashcoin. The problem with a lot of the larger exchanges is they say they don't require a listing fee but they want a "Deposit" or a guarantee that you have X amount of trading or they'll keep the "Deposit", or they want a percentage of the token itself which is a joke. Most larger exchanges are running bots or have market makers. There is a ton of wash trading going on to create false volume.

As for team funds, they said they had plenty of runway for 2 years from ICO money alone. They also have the Archnode that gives them Halo at payouts to help cover overhead costs.

Announcement regarding the Blockfight Release:

https://community.haloplatform.tech/blogs/entry/128-blockfight-press-release-and-halo-giveaway/

"February 27, 2019 – Block and Chain Game Studios (https://blockandchain.games/) is pleased to announce the public release of Blockfight - an exciting creature-centered dice battle game built using blockchain technology. This visually immersive and technologically cutting-edge battle game is the first title published by Block and Chain Game Studios, an up-and-coming blockchain gaming platform.

Blockfight is an immersive online gaming experience where players battle grotesque monsters, displayed in high-res 3D. The beasts take massive hits all based on the roll of the dice, which rely on blockchain technology to ensure truly random and provably fair results. Just select your character and how much you want to risk on the fight and your characters will battle it out to the bitter end.

The creatures battle for guts, glory, and valuable rewards. Beat them all and fill your trophy room – and your digital coin wallet! Players can play completely free to test the waters, thanks to a generous allotment of in-game coins provided by Block and Chain. Users who want a bigger thrill will undoubtedly want to try their luck with a favorite cryptocurrency, such as Ethereum and HALO.

Blockfight is free-to-play and can be accessed directly on the web: https://www.blockfight.com/

Blockfight may be a new title from Block and Chain Game Studios, but it’s built on top of blockchain technology that is well-established. This is possible due to Block and Chain Game Studios’ partnership with Halo Platform, which has built some of the most robust and reliable blockchain technology available today. This cutting-edge platform will make gameplay and cryptocurrency flows on Block and Chain’s platform nearly seamless. If you’re a developer and have your own crypto-based experience you’re wanting to show the world, we suggest you roll the dice around in Blockfight a few times just to see how easy and seamless it is to integrate with the Halo Platform.  

Block and Chain Game Studios is a division of the Halo Platform aimed at encouraging the development of blockchain gaming and introducing the gaming community to the benefits of cryptocurrency and blockchain technology.

Definitely a good watch, can't wait for the updated MN Dapp so we can pool together on other masternode coins like Dash etc.
