Hi everyone,
So, as hinted at in the dev announcement last night, they are putting someone in charge of managing the game keys store. That would be me, so I wanted to introduce myself and tell you a bit about my plans for the site.
First things first, my relationship with the devs. I know them all personally, but up until now I haven’t been involved with the project in any way other than watching them work their butts off for the past month.
I’m a very avid PC gamer, so when the suggestion of a game key store came up it really grabbed my interest. I did some research over the last week or so, bought up a little stock to be able to test the concept and then approached the team to offer my support.
My research showed that while there are some stores out there offering game keys, they are pretty much offering them at the RRP with their unique selling point being that they accept crypto. For me, this isn’t good enough. Your average crypto holder is currently using crypto as an investment and not as a means to buy goods. This means that there is no incentive whatsoever to use a large chunk of their crypto to buy goods that they can buy for much cheaper using fiat.
I think there’s a real market for a GOOD gamekey website given that the average crypto user demographics are fairly similar to the average gamer demographics (source: the sa and cryptocurrency.org).
My plan for the gamekey website is going to be to make the prices competitive, so it’s worthwhile actually converting fiat into KDC to take advantage of the prices we offer (Max Payne 3 for around $5 for example). In the early stages, stock is going to be very limited while we make sure that the site works how we want it to, and while we build up initial stock levels. This will be a beta period, and I hope you’ll all appreciate that this is a brand new business idea and that it can take months for a new store to build up stock and start being successful. I saw someone quote the volume of 5BTC a day – this simply won’t be the case early on, even most fiat stores would kill for that sort of volume!
In these very early stages, I’d ask that anyone who buys a key post about it to share their experience and provide feedback to me. I plan to be very open and honest about future plans etc, so ask away if you have any questions.
Finally, I’ll keep you all updated on the state of the site, new stock coming in etc. We’re currently redoing the whole thing, so you won’t notice many changes for the next 24 hours or so.
Welcome!
