A question regarding poker..... What software platform do you intend to use for poker? Many of theses have been provably suspect. I am a long time live and online player, in fact some of the celebrities you are mentioning have been involved in such questionable dealings. Please provide us potential investors/users with poker platform developer info.
This is of course assuming that the point of this is to control the gaming platforms. I am not trying to sound negative, you will find many intelligent people here who are used to open source content and will always question legitimacy.
My paranoid side tells me that even though your crypto development may be solid and legitimate, your edge is likely found as playing the "house". I read a reference within these posts to skill games, without peer review of software how is it provably fair. "GODMODE" is every players worst fear, so please provide us some answers regarding the possibility that we may be duped at the tables and not necessarily at the exchange.
I wish you luck and success, I appreciate what work you have presented.........just......convince me.
SRBOOTH, Excellent questions, we are glad you brought these to the forefront. Without revealing too much confidential information on a public forum, we can tell you that we are working with a third party software development team with a set of excellent top software engineers that worked previously with companies such as Party Poker, Gtech and Playtech.
RNG and software was certified by itech labs as well as GLI (tst labs). We have been making major modifications and updates over the past year for the software, so when completed we will have to get re-certified by both labs before launch. In addition, when the software is complete we will be hiring an independent software auditing company to check for backdoors and "godmode." We understand the concerns the poker and gaming community have over potential fraudulent activity and hope the crypto community will give us a chance to show that we will be transparent as possible. The certificates and independent audit will be made available to the public immediately after we get certified. WE WILL NOT LAUNCH WITHOUT PROVIDING THESE CERTIFICATIONS TO THE PUBLIC.
We do understand your concerns about potential accusations of the poker pros, but we can tell you the ones remaining on our team all have been potential victims by bad management. We can tell you it was very difficult to get a lot of these pros on board, specifically because of the bad press some of them have received because of their association with a company they had no control over. On top of that, we had to convince them to accept "computer code" instead of cash. Many of them were paid millions for their previous endorsement deals. Imagine how that conversation went.
After telling them our story, they became believers in the future of cryptocurrency and gaming. All the marketing pros are in this project 100% and want to advance the cause of cryptos to gain mass adoption by the general population. FYI, we cut a lot of our initial Team of pros because of potential activities that would not bring this project into a good light. A lot of the pros current pros are friends of management and very well known in the poker circles. Although not all of them are the most popular in the community, absolutely none of the players on our team are known in the inner circle of high limit players as someone that would knowingly get involved in fraudulent activity.
Can i guess which poker pro was easiest to convince ?
