Yes!

Finally got those coins sold on bittrex. Tron is on a bullrun so i sold some of those to buy some more UKG to sell them again just to buy back tron and some doge's. Minimum deals makes people dump in the long run and i did.

Later alligator.

PS: Go on c-patex with your coin. No minimums there. Same goes for volume.. Ridiculous. Would have kept your coins if i knew they were sellable as is.

Tell me, what does mark Cuban have to do with your project? He acts only as an investor, or is one of the owners of your company?

Another blogpost by our CEO, Rahul Sood:

https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/800/1*[email protected]

In the last few hours, our dream became real, and our company just became substantially more valuable.

Today’s PASPA news cannot be overstated. If you missed it, esports and sports betting is no longer illegal by federal law, but instead left up to individual states.

When we started Unikrn, it was to build a fan-driven sports betting platform exclusively for esports fans. At the time, and still today, most major esports betting options came from nonendemic sports and horse racing operators who were reaching into esports without understanding the culture.

We wanted to fix that and give esports and gaming fans a truly custom experience built around their wants, needs and culture.

Since then, we’ve expanded to be a full esports culture stop, for gamers, esports fans, professionals and, yes, bettors. No matter who you are, no matter where in the world you are, if you’re a gamer or esports fan, we offer something for you.

I’m often asked why we didn’t build a fantasy model to get our real-money betting into the United States, Instead, we focused over three years staking a claim in esports betting that didn’t rely on a strange regulatory loophole. We believe in regulation, KYC, and creating a safe and legal betting experience. Our goal is not to collect money at all costs, our goal is to offer a standalone product that is worth trusting and using.

To us, that meant ignoring Daily Fantasy models, and other loopholes. We would rather focus on building the best experience possible for regions where we would be regulated. Plus, we were confident that the US market would open to regulated sports betting soon.

So we planned for the long-term, knowing that the federal government would eventually overturn the archaic law preventing responsible, regulated esports betting.

Moreover, we applaud the decision: by letting states regulate and offer sports betting, the US government is letting betting experiences become better-regulated and undermining illicit, offshore and black market operations that endanger their users. In esports, legal betting will undermine the betting pools that power skin-betting, illicit betting activity that reprehensibly sucks in minors and at-risk bettors with no regulation or know-your-customer (KYC) practices.

Undermining those pools is a major part of reducing access for at-risk populations such as minors. We hope that all 50 states will follow in New Jersey’s footsteps and legalize sports betting, bringing a safer betting environment to their citizens.

Legalizing and regulating betting, in short, makes people safer. It gives fans more tools to have fun and ensures big operators are behaving morally.

While others are working to catch up to our lead, we’ll be implementing our blockchain, patent-pending technologies and years of R&D to move on deploying real-money betting across the world. Now we expect that rollout to soon include plans for offering products in the United States.

Our platform has been evolving faster than ever before. UnikoinGold was already the first crypto on the Las Vegas strip, used as prizes in gaming tournaments at the MGM Grand. We are ready to move forward here and around the world to continue to bring an unmatched esports experience.

That means betting. That means news. That means rewarding gamers for playing and bringing them stats on their games.

As always, we are looking at the arc of history and not the tangent. We are confident in Unikrn’s future across the board, and today’s Supreme Court decision just proves we are on the right track.

Check out what Mark Cuban had to say today on this!

LET’S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Mark Cuban, Billionaire Investor, owner of the Dallas Mavericks, investor in Unikrn and participant of the UKG tokensale was very bullish on the news today.

He was called up by CNBC to get his thoughts on the developments and mentioned Unikrn and esports betting couple of times.

He also expressed his thoughts on an interview with ESPN's Jacob Wolf (click for the full videos):

Esports Betting Now Possible in US in New Supreme Court Ruling

In a new Supreme Court ruling the federal ban on sports betting has been deemed unconstitutional, thus opening the door for official esports betting to become a reality in the United States.
Sports gambling is a wildly lucrative industry, even without previous legality in states across the nation. According to Statista, the global gross gambling yield amounts to more than $400 billion every year. The online gambling market was worth more than $40 billion in the US by 2016. And esports gambling in particular is a growing portion of those bets, with a $325 million yield in 2016 that's projected to grow to $1.4 billion by 2020.

Today's 6-3 decision to eliminate the Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act (PASPA) for violation of the 10th Amendment, which states that the federal government cannot enforce laws that would compel states to carry out federal dictates, has been a battle long brewing.

“The legalization of sports gambling requires an important policy choice, but the choice is not ours to make,” Justice Samuel A. Alito Jr. wrote for the majority. “Congress can regulate sports gambling directly, but if it elects not to do so, each state is free to act on its own.”

Needless to say, the gambling industry is ecstatic at the news as some states have been preparing for legal sports betting for some time now.

"11 states have introduced sports betting legislation. Four states have already legalized sports betting," leading gambling lawyer Jeff Ifrah told Unikrn News. "There are more on the way. And now this — New Jersey has started accepting sports betting operator license applications. This isn't only happening because states want more tax revenue, it's also because happening there is customer demand for it and because sports leagues want to improve fan engagement."

Ifrah is bullish on the effect this will have on esports and esports leagues, and especially for esportsbooks, such as Unikrn, that are in a position to engage immediately:

Quote
"It is the perfect time to be an esports betting and wagering platform. New Jersey and other states will soon green-light betting on esports and esports as a result will continue to grow and engage its fan base." - Jeff Ifrah - Gambling Lawyer

While the Supreme Court didn't mentioned esports specifically in their ruling, esports has been authorized for betting by Sportsbook before. Should individual states recognize traditional sports betting, the leap to esports is only a matter of time.

"When Karl and I started Unikrn in 2014 we made a decision to go down the path of regulated esports betting because we believe the future of this space is massive," says Unikrn CEO and founder Rahul Sood. "We fully expected the federal laws to change — and for the past few years we have built a technical moat around Unikrn. We are light-years ahead of the competition and we will enable esports betting across the US in the future!"

And thanks to the United States Supreme Court ruling today, that future could very well be tomorrow.

usually I don't play video games and have not really played any in a long time but I just downloaded clash of clans and connected it to this can anyone explain how it works?

also is it possible to convert the uks to ukg or is the silver one just for the website?

UnikoinSilver only exists on Unikrn platform and cannot be converted.
Playing Clash of Clans will yield you UKS rewards for Attack Wins and Versus Battle Wins.
Rocket League also provides UKS rewards for wins.

Whereas League of Legends, Counter-Strike and DOTA2 ranked wins provide you with UKG and UKS rewards.

Our community frequently tells us we’re moving too fast to follow

https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/720/0*PWI7eCRaEBHq8jzB.

Our community frequently tells us we’re moving too fast to follow. I get it. We launch new features, partnerships or other major announcements every week. Even the most diehard Unikrn fan might have trouble keeping up.

We do our best to make following the pulse of the scene easy, whether that is tracking your favorite OWL teams, your own games, UnikoinGold or your favorite gaming platform (us).

That’s why the Unikrn content and community team put together this overview of everything since the UnikoinGold token sale. Although it’s not exhaustive, it will help put the sheer scale and scope of our evolution into perspective.

https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/720/0*GZH88BmXnuAzA-CO.

We got that together on Friday and it’s already out of date because today we launched one of Unikrn’s largest platform updates in our history. Check out the site and you’ll see tons of changes, include enormous improvements in load time and interface speed.

This front-end is built on a new, unbelievably fast technology stack and has brought updates small and large to just about every page on Unikrn. Some highlights:

Esportsbook stats to help you follow your favorite teams and titles without watching every game, letting you make informed decisions no matter how much time you have to watch games

https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/720/0*aU1fRVx6ViVzxqNA.

Detailed history information in our updated Connekt. Track your play, lifetime or match stats for various titles while earning UKG or UKS just for playing, and even trade your unwanted skins for UKG in the inventory interface
More intuitive news format that lets you seek out exactly the kind of coverage you want, whether it’s podcasts, video, written word or crypto/Unikrn updates.
I’m very proud of the team for creating such a substantial quality-of-life improvement for our entire community, and I know this is only the start for our platform’s continued growth.

Check out some more details about the change and explore the site for yourself! If you haven’t signed up for Connekt, the new design makes it easier than ever. And don’t worry if you can’t bet on our esportsbook because of your region: you can still play completely for free with UnikoinSilver from any region, and you can still use that UKS to win real prizes and rewards in our jackpots.

UnikoinGold the First Crypto on the Las Vegas Strip

Our partnership with the MGM Grand has given us the opportunity to bring esports and gaming fans into one of the world’s most-trafficked tourist destinations the opportunity to play more than slots. We host weekly gaming tournaments, casual-competitive events and play-ins. Now, those events will feature UnikoinGold prizes, starting this week with a free-to-play Fortnite.

UnikoinGold has been making history from the beginning, when it had the biggest token sale in gaming and esports history. Then it became the first cryptocurrency used to power recurring community esports events at scale, and is now the first token inside of a casino on the Las Vegas strip.

Details about our events are always available on Facebook and Twitter. Events feature merchandise, cash and crypto prizes.

We’ve already been working with the Malta Gaming Authority to assist in creating legal crypto betting, and to make a legal, responsible entry into the Vegas strip, we worked with Nevada regulators. This is part of Unikrn's mission to increase the functionality, ease of use and acceptance of crypto throughout the world.

oh yes, sorry for my carelessness. The link you dropped now works. as I see the value of your coin has reached a price of $ 2 or more, your project looks promising, so I think that you are waiting for the price and better

price in January to $ 2, the developers pumped after bittrex and upbit listing

We did not pump anything.
