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.

So what happens to unsold tokens?

They will be placed in the Platform Supply Pool to pay out winning wagers. If there are an excess of tokens in the Platform Supply Pool, they will be sold to bring in new members (at a significant premium to market prices so as to not suppress the token price). Other excess tokens in the Platform Supply Pool will be distributed to existing members through the Community Incentive Plan

Very solid plan it sounds like.

Yeah good uses of the tokens.

I've heard there's a lot of benefit to registering gambling sites in Curaçao, will you guys be going through them?

No, our plan is to be based out of Gibraltar. We've been working with our legal team out there, ISOLAS LLP, and will be engaging the gaming authorities there to obtain the appropriate license. Gibraltar have stringent gaming requirements, so our hope is that when the US legalizes sports betting, we will be well positioned to obtain a license there.

That's a very telling approach. Everyone else wants to take short cuts and take the easy path, you guys are planning far ahead and aren't afraid to work harder right now to ensure success in the future.

Thanks for the kind words. Even as a lawyer myself, I can attest that the proper legal path does take a surprising amount of time and effort.

Interesting, do you specialize in blockchain or betting?

I specialize in the intersection of corporate commercial with blockchain and digital asset law.

You sound like a useful guy to have around in a venture like this then!  Cheesy

I remember another token Hero, they have already a mature project for betting

Fansunite might not have a mature betting platform, but they at least have a good demo of it.

Is there a particular country the majority of the team is from or is it more globally based?

Everyone lives in Canada (except some of the advisors), and works out of the same office every day. Great core team that are used to working together and will be in it for the long haul.

That's awesome, are you guys Toronto based by chance?

Vancouver, though we are out in Toronto every few months.

So SaberCruncher is Vancouver based too?

Yep! The group works with their desks next to ours now every day.

Do you guys have any pictures or videos around the office? I'd love to see your setup.

There's a bit of a video in the background of http://victorysquare.com/, but we will try and get a proper one of the FansUnite team set up.

You guys still using victorysquare?
