What is MindSports IO (MIND)?
MindSports IO is a decentralized social gaming network powered by Ethereum technology, IPFS, Whisper and the MIND Registry for intellectual sports such as Chess, Draughts (Checkers), Xiangqi, Bridge and Go.
They aim to eliminate the need for trusting a single party host in running and governing games.
With a decentralized system, the intellectual gaming world will be taken by storm as users are given the power to manage the games. With traditional events, organizations may put their own interests ahead of the integrity of the game, whereas MindSports IO will allow for transparent governance!
