It seems that every month or so there is a gambling site that is released that is run under a smart contract with an alt-coin. These alt coins are usually large or medium cap like ETH, TRON, EOS, NANO, etc. So I am not surprised to see another one launched to give an alt-coin some actual real world use, I think its great for adoption.
However here is the issue. Most crypto gamblers usually only hold BTC, LTC and ETH. They very rarely will go and purchase an alt such as NANO to gamble with. Sure it has lots of trading volume however most of the NANO use right now is just for speculation. There aren't too many gamblers who are hodling NANO right now. Usually what happens the site will get very little usage even though its an interesting concept.
These are relevant points. One of the issues I see is that people usually only promote their site to the die hard supporters of such a coin. I'm actually very critical of this kind of thing. I'm interested in working with players and affiliates regardless of if they hodl this coin.
I've been running another site (
https://playerkillers.exchange) which is a browser-based, fully animated action RPG featuring more than a thousand areas. Instead of just promoting it to the usual people who are already interested in NANO, I get traffic from a wide variety of sources. As it is free to play and you can earn crypto from the game, I've been able to introduce people who aren't specifically interested in crypto.
Similarly, Rock Paper Scissors Online doesn't require any risk to get started. It is easy enough to play with faucet amounts. As I've said above all players need is a wallet to try it. You can claim from any of the major faucets or use the no deposit bonus on the site.
Players will appreciate the choice of NANO once they try the game. Transaction speed and no transaction fees are what makes this so convenient. Everyone will have different opinions about their favorite coins. This thread will be about the game, not about NANO. Everyone is entitled to their favorites. I respect that.
I always say, "Use the best tool for the job"
With this site I wanted players to be able to play with micro amounts, have instant payouts and not worry about fees. Usually that would require a third party service like coinpot, which doesn't allow payments last time I checked. Even so, they charge fees and are centralized. For this particular concept NANO happened to be a good fit. Because transactions are free and fast, I can automatically payout users when they leave the game. Most transactions are fully confirmed within a few seconds.
This also benefits affiliates, because there is no need to wait for weekly, monthly or daily payouts. I pay affiliates as soon as their referral leaves the game.
All that is required to try this game is a wallet. You can get NANO from any faucet. There's no need to sell or exchange your existing crypto if you only want to try the game. Totally risk free!
Thanks to everyone for sharing valuable feedback.
