How many people are working on the project now?

It was 8 full time a month ago, curious if it's grown now.

What would you guys say your biggest obstacle to date has been?

Balancing the commitments required in traveling and attending conferences with the ongoing demand for meaningful work to get this platform finished. It's definitely an exhausting balancing act.

That is a surprising answer. About how many conferences have you guys been to now?

Must be a lot, any specifics on which ones FansUnite has been featured at?

How much have you guys already invested into FansUnite if you had to estimate?

Personally, we've spent a good few years and around $400,000-$500,000 from the founders. We've had a few different investments, however, that have helped immensely. That was for FansUnite.com, however. Keep in mind that FansUnite.io, the real money sportsbook, is a separate venture that we've been developing in-house for the last 6+ months.

Separate venture but ran and developed by the same team right? That's quite a lot of investment already, it's obvious you guys are all in.

Are you guys seeing good results from your bounty campaign?

It's exciting to see the adoption from the community, but there are definitely a lot of tokens left out there for interested parties. Hopefully we get a bit more traction.

It's hard to differentiate yourself in this field. Just gotta keep trying though, and pushing what makes you so special. (Which in my opinion, is your extremely low fees.)

Any big investors on board?

Yes, a major shareholder of one of the biggest sportsbooks in the world is a contributor. I can't name names yet, but there may be a press release in the upcoming weeks.


That's great, I can't wait to find out who.

Are there any new features still in the ideas stage that might not even make it in?

We always throw a bunch around every day in the office, but nothing we've really locked in on. The closest idea to becoming a possibility is that of staking other bettors, though we do still need to work out the legalities of everything surrounding that.

Any chance of you guys expanding to eSports betting?

We will for sure offer eSports betting. It's one of our core offerings. We already offer eSports on our existing platform, FansUnite.com and will definitely offer eSports betting on our real money sportsbook at FansUnite.io

That's great, there's lots of money to be made there.

Yeah, it's one of our fastest growing sports in terms of volume of bets, so we are very excited to watch the continued growth.

People often underestimate it. I remember one year an event being more watched than the World Series.

2014 League of Legends championships.

That is impressive, and that was years ago. I bet it's even more watched nowadays.

Yeah you're right, 2014 had 23M viewers. 2016 was up to 43M!

Very impressive, especially considering how many other options there are in eSports nowadays.
