[Altcoin Sunday]

Took a little break, but I'm back!
The @EpicGames vs @Apple drama sparked interest in one of my oldest hobbies - GAMING.

So today, we're looking at @ultra_io $UOS. Shout out to @RasmusHougard for the recommendation!

Let's go! #Altcoin #Crypto (1/12)

TL;DR : @ultra_io $UOS is a straight-forward, no-bullshit platform for gaming on blockchain.
Solid partnerships, and experienced team.
Seems like right now is the closed beta version, but really excited for when it comes live. Get a few streamers on board then (2/12)

Let's talk about why we need gaming on Blockchain.
All gamers can relate:

1. In-game scams (Fortnite/CS Go item scams)
2. Secondary market value plummets for games
3. No way to generate revenue (all gamers dream of playing games for money)

Just a few. (3/12)

So let's take issue #1: In-game item scams.

You log in, find a player who is willing to trade you for that skin or that item you really want. Only after you send the money/item, you realise you've been scammed.

@ultra_io solves this issue by tokenising in-game items. (4/12)

Issue #2: Low secondary market value for games.

Everyone who's been to GameStop to sell games before know this. You purchase a game for $40, and when you want to sell a used game, you get maybe $4.

The issue here is centralised monopoly in gaming. $UOS changes this. (5/12)

Issue #3: Games don't generate revenue.

Gaming requires high consumption. Expensive PC, electricity, time, in-game purchases, etc.
So what if you could EARN MONEY instead?

@ultra_io allows you to review and curate games, and watch ads (opt-in) to earn $UOS. (6/12)

Okay, so let's really get into the small things that make @ultra_io stand out as a gaming token.

First of all, the team.

With experiences at Apple, Dell, Xbox, Ubisoft, Atari, Uber, Logitech, etc.. the team knows the gaming industry.
Industry insight goes a LONG way. (7/12)

Next up, partnerships.

Like I said, industry insight goes a long way. This includes connections. The better connections you have, the more likely you are to get good partnerships.

@ultra_io has partnerships with gaming giants like Ubisoft and AMD.

Case closed. (8/12)

And also MULTIFUNCTIONALITIES.

So many #altcoins tend to focus on ONE thing. That's why it takes long to develop the solution, and even longer to implement it.

@ultra_io offers decentralised marketplaces for items, games, game ads, game curation, and reviews. (9/12)

Let me put it this way:

It's like Steam - except you get paid $UOS for activities, developers are charged LESS for game listing (and thus more games on the platform), with SDKs to link up to other platforms.

Gaming platform, built by gamers that rewards gamers. (10/12)

Investment perspective:

COVID-19 has shown that the majority of our lives will become online. Gaming is huge & has been growing consistently.
@ultra_io $UOS has gone up +150% in the last 30 days.
Once beta opens & streamers get onboard, it will get exciting. (11/12)

It will take some time, of course. If gaming tokens ever catch the hype again as DeFi has done, $UOS will perform really well.

Regardless of the hype, I think @ultra_io is a pretty cool platform for any gamers to try out. After all, the model doesn't hurt to try. (12/12)
