Dear EOSBet Community,
It’s been an exciting past couple of weeks for the company. Bitcoin betting has been functioning smoothly and seen a great deal of usage during our promotion. The marketing department has made considerable strides. And most importantly, Baccarat has been released!
Baccarat Release
We know a lot of community members have been waiting in anticipation for our re-release of Baccarat. We took feedback from our previous version and completely revamped the gameplay and design of this classic casino game.
We’ve built a new Big Road, custom card deck, and added sound effects to add to the experience. Test your luck and wager with 8 different chips on any combination of Player, Banker, Tie, or pairs. Who’ll be the first to place a 1 BTC chip bet on “Tie”?
This release is still in beta, so we are keen to hear your feedback about the game. We will be adding rules and an on-site walkthrough in the future. Check it out here!
Bitcoin Promotion Recap
On February 15th we launched Bitcoin betting, becoming the first project on EOS with native Bitcoin acceptance. Here are some stats from our recent promotion, which wrapped up today:
- 1,100 BTC wagered
- 136 players who deposited BTC
We’re looking forward to implementing many more coins. Have a currency you want to bet with? Be sure to let us know!
Marketing Updates
London Conferences
Last month, EOSBet attended a number of conferences in London. These included ICE Totally Gaming, the London Affiliate Conference, and the Satoshi Vision Party, which we hosted alongside our marketing partners.
We have some amazing leads from these conferences, especially in the areas of affiliate marketing, eSports service providers, and other gaming platforms. We look forward to pursuing some of these potential partnerships in the future and are pleased we could demonstrate the power of blockchain gaming to such a relevant audience.
Affiliate Marketing Program
We’ve established key partnerships with some of the top affiliates in the casino business and will be utilizing them after we launch our affiliate program, which we’re aiming to rollout in Q2 2019.
Media Campaigns
We will be launching two additional marketing campaigns to promote Bitcoin betting on the EOS blockchain. So far, we’ve been published by over 50 media outlets. Examples:
Internal Analytics
Recently, the marketing team has placed a significant focus upon developing our internal analytics and reporting systems. These will provide us with valuable business intelligence, including a deeper understanding of our players and an improved ability to evaluate the performance of our marketing efforts. This will allow us to be more effective in deploying our marketing funds as we reach outside of the EOS community.
Ambassador Program
Frej will contact everyone who has applied to be an Ambassador within the next week. Registration will close March 7th, so if you’re interested in spreading awareness about the platform and growing the project please apply! If you want to learn more about the role and the benefits that come with it you can read about it here.
A Note on Exchange Listing
We understand some in the community are eager to trade BET tokens. Right now, user acquisition and game development are our primary concerns. In order to build a sustainable platform that’s successful for years to come, it’s important to have a strong product and choose an adequate exchange to work with.
We’ve seen numerous dapps on EOS have their tokens prices severely manipulated by large holders on low-liquidity DEXs. While no exchange is fully immune to this behaviour, some are unquestionably more reputable than others and also have higher liquidity. Our discussions with top exchanges are ongoing, but complicated due to increased caution surrounding compliance and regulation. Some new DEXs will be coming to market soon and we are actively evaluating these products. We thank everyone for their patience.
Have a great couple of weeks everyone. We hope you can check out Baccarat and let us know what you think!
Cheers,
Team EOSBet
