Dearest QUOINERS,
How have you been?
There are a lot of exciting things I would like to share with you in Tammy’s Corner this week. But first, I must share a story about passion. 😌
My older brother is an anime fanatic.
Ever since he was little, anime has been his world and our childhood revolved around the popular comic books we have available in Vietnam in the late 90’s: Dragonball, Pokemon, Inu Yasha. Every bit of pocket money he had, my brother would invest it in buying these stories with pictures. In his drawer, under his bed and behind the shelves hid stacks and stacks of comic books he adored. While other kids would play video games, my brother’s eyes would be glued to the pages of these comic stories, all lit up.
My brother loved anime so much, he drew his own. Blessed with the gift of drawing, he spent most of his time in his room reading comic stories, sketching his own characters and writing his own comic books.
There is an entire world out there (or in there), in which people live on a mission and die for the greater good. There are heroes and worthy battles, there are justice and revenge, there are happiness and sorrow, all at the tip of a pen.

For the record, my brother is now 31 years old and still pretty much spending most of his time drawing comic books. He doesn’t make a living with it though. The guy draws for the sheer joy of doing it. My parents don’t approve of it. It doesn’t pay. It doesn’t matter.
A strange thing it is, passion.
Passion for comic stories manifests in many different ways also. For many others, it’s cosplay.
As self-explanatory as the word is, cosplay is the combination of “costume” and “play”. The venture in itself is a fun platform for anime fans to express their passion for anime as well as their fandom/love for the characters they embody. Cosplay also applies for video games, movies and books. The initiative is quite costly yet undoubtedly fun and fuelled by passion. Cosplay is a community.
Now take a moment and imagine a blockchain-enabled cosplay universe where passion is rewarded and all parties involved in the cosplay world can benefit from making transactions, paying for services and sharing revenue with one unified token.
Passion can pay
This past week, we had the honor of bringing the world’s first Cosplay token sale to you.
What might first appear to be a passion project popular just among a subgroup in Japan is actually a worldwide movement. The cosplay industry is estimated to be worth US$45 billion, perhaps even more. You can learn more about the industry’s potential in our blog: Cosplay: US$45 billion industry comes to the blockchain.
The Cosplay Token (COT) is creating an accessible way for everyone to monetize their passion for cosplay or simply support cosplayers as COT becomes the de-facto currency of the cosplay economy.
Harnessing the power of blockchain technology, a community of 720,000 members and a hoard of popular ambassadors are at the forefront of something new. Soon enough, one’s passion for cosplay can pay off not only emotionally but also financially.
The Cosplay Token private sale is happening now on QRYPTOS. We invite you to be a part of this passionate movement.😉
Time to make it fun!
For the gamers, we also have a great ICO project for you. 😉
Mfun (Make it fun) is the native gaming project to the fastest growing market for games in Southeast Asia, Indonesia. The project helps players get rewarded by capturing more value from the gaming economy and providing fair value redistribution to all parties.
This is a great explainer by Mfun Head of Communications and former Miss Indonesia Kerenina Sunny Halim about what the project is all about.
Also, don’t miss 5 reasons why Mfun is shaking up the gaming industry in Southeast Asia.😁
QUOINE is proud to host the Mfun Private Sale on QRYPTOS. Are you in?
Speaking of great ICOs
The Bryllite ICO sold out this week on our ICO Mission Control platform. The Korean company is transforming the landscape of the global gaming market as promised.
