In our first look to the RankingBall project(https://steemit.com/ico/@polkeins/first-look-to-the-rankingball-project), we have examined the project team, those people who will push this platform forward.
They all have great experience in the game industry. The founder Darren Kim, for example, has more than 20 years of experience in creating startups and in 2009, his company conducted an IPO. So we can be sure that the guys know their business, including how to properly prepare their company for the IPO \ ICO.
The recent change in the ICO timeline won't scare you, the team simply decided to focus on working with large companies, leagues, advertisers, so that the network effect of the project was much larger. Let's now talk about the idea itself, about what we are going to be surprised about Rankingball.
"RankingBall is a new skill-based game that uses real-time data from live sports and esports events and transforms fans into fully engaged participants.
RankingBall is entirely different from existing fantasy sports or sports betting because your standings and scores are updated play-by-play simultaneously with live sporting events or esports matches. Make skill-based, play-by-play predictions on live matches and earn real or cryptocurrency rewards based on your performance.
Here’s what you need to know:
We’re creating a blockchain-based ecosystem that rewards fans of all sports, along with esports developers, streamers and players.
Our blockchain-based currency, RankingBall Gold (RBG) keeps things simple for everyone in the ecosystem, while also making it more secure.
RBG is a decentralised ERC20 token on the Ethereum blockchain."
The main thing that RankingBall offers us is not just thinking in the "bet paradigm" of the player who makes bets. Now to make money in sports you need either 1) Play it or 2) Make bets What generally drives some people who are "addicted" to bets, into a trap.
On the ranking platform you can earn money by driving a stream of some kind of game if you like it, maybe you are a baseball specialist and give thorough statistics on players and teams, but are forced to publish all this on some sites, without the possibility to earn on this. With the help of RankingBall you can coin your knowledge. It is possible that you are a developer of games or applications, however, it is your income from placing or selling your game that is minimal, by using a ranking score you can submit your games or programs to the public, because RankingBank has its own token that will have liquidity and go online Ranking score, you can also buy or sell it on the stock exchange, so that the market will also have a token. And this is wonderful, because the more people will know about the token ranking, the more it exchanges, buy or sell it, the more popularity rankingball will be.
Also the popularity rankingball will be promoted by cooperation with major leagues, promoters, game developers directly. Rankingball already has such experience, since 2014, with the Olympic Games in Sochi. Here you can see who and whom they had cooperation with.
The market of the gaming industry is huge and RankingBall can take a worthy place in it, given the fact that there are no competitors of this niche yet.
P.S: This is definitely a plus that team asking to the questions directly, not hired someone for doind that.
