FUN token adds BETR technology and leadership
FUN token is pleased to announce that it has reached agreement with the BETR Foundation to merge both party’s interests and work together to bring decentralised and peer-to-peer gaming to its huge and growing user base.
BETR raised funds in 2017 to build a peer-to-peer betting solution and proceeded to execute, with a fully-fledged betting client launching in time for the FIFA World Cup in 2018. The technology developed included an in-game betting system with rich market coverage and peer-to-peer betting facilitated through a complex smart contract ecosystem based on the BETR ERC20 Ethereum token. More recently it extended the system to offer casino gaming.
FUN is now able to take advantage of the technology and expertise developed for BETR as part of an agreement to merge the tokens.
BETR holders will be able to switch their BETR for FUN through an automated swap system which will cause the BETR tokens to be burned in exchange for FUN. Through an automated swap system BETR tokens will be swapped for Fun at a rate of 4 BETR = 1 FUN – system details to be released within the next week on https://betr.org. BETR tokens acquired through the swap system will be burnt and BETR will be delisted from exchanges.
As part of the transaction FUN will acquire all technology developed for BETR and key personnel will join the new FUN team, building the future of decentralised gaming. BETR CEO Adriaan Brink will assume the role of CEO of the FUN token and will grow the team and spearhead the new drive to grow opportunities for FUN.
Brink has a wealth of experience in the online gaming industry, starting in 1995 with lotteries and progressing through all gaming verticals over the past 25 years. He also co-founded Earthport (now Visa Direct) in 1999 and his payments experience combined with gaming make him the ideal person to take FUN to the next level.
Brink said “I am truly excited to have this opportunity to take what we have learnt and combine BETR with the fantastic FUN community and the huge audience of Freebitco.in in order to deliver on what all of us always dreamt of – a decentralised gaming infrastructure more suited to the modern era”.
FUN will soon announce plans on how it intends to move forwards with a suite of products including side-chain and off-chain gaming engines to counter the issues of Ethereum gas prices, a new casino site with a rich suite of games, and other gaming opportunities including peer-to-peer betting.
Freebitco.in has over 40M users and significant daily traffic and will play a pivotal role in expanding the FUN token user base. The company intends to set aside a percentage of profits from activities to be burnt on a regular basis which will reduce the supply figures downwards.
3.75Bn of the cold storage FUN tokens were purchased recently by Freebitco.in. This was the culmination of an ongoing exercise to accumulate tokens for use within their loyalty program. As a consequence of this, these tokens are no longer in cold storage and the supply figures on Coinmarketcap will update shortly as follows:
Total supply : 10,999,873,621
Circulating supply : 10,298,879,189
The Plaza Hotel & Casino will celebrate the start of every weekend this summer with a live fireworks show Friday nights at 9:15 p.m., beginning May 24 for Memorial Day weekend through Aug. 30 for Labor Day weekend.
Inspired by the fireworks shows at Disneyland, the Plaza’s Welcome to the Weekend Summer Friday Fireworks will light up the sky above downtown Las Vegas and be part of a festive summer block party atmosphere at the property’s Carousel Bar and rooftop pool deck.
“The Plaza is known for its great fireworks on New Year’s Eve and July 4th, but who says fireworks are only for those holidays?” said Jonathan Jossel, CEO of the Plaza Hotel & Casino. “This summer, we wanted to celebrate and give a gift to everyone downtown by sharing the excitement and fun of our fireworks shows with them every Friday night.”
“Las Vegas is the world’s destination because of all the spectacular attractions that are available here,” City of Las Vegas Mayor Carolyn Goodman said. “The Plaza is adding a new weekly fireworks extravaganza this summer, and everyone is invited to visit downtown Las Vegas and enjoy the show!”
Derek Stevens, CEO and Owner of Circa Resort & Casino said “The weekly fireworks show will amp up Fremont Street’s high-energy atmosphere to a new level. It’s a terrific addition for the entire neighborhood, providing another exciting reason for visitors to come downtown. Huge thanks to Jonathan and the Plaza team for bringing this idea to life. We’ll definitely be enjoying the show every week from Circa’s rooftop lounge, Legacy Club.”
The fireworks shot from the Plaza’s towers will be visible to the thousands of tourists and locals in downtown Las Vegas as well as for miles beyond. Plaza hotel guests will be able to enjoy the fireworks from an exclusive viewing party on its rooftop pool deck where the fireworks will be “ignited” by a special guest pushing a detonator button on an oversized TNT box.
To attract even more people to stay downtown, the Plaza introduced the only all-inclusive hotel room package starting at $125 per person per night. The package includes bottomless drinks, breakfast and dinner, a free bingo session, waived resort fees, and more. Rooms must be booked online by June 30 for a stay June 1 through July 1.
The Friday night rooftop pool party for hotel guests will feature the Frozen Firecracker, a special red, white, and blue cocktail made with strawberry daiquiri, pina colada, and blue lemonade spiked with Don Q Rum. At Carousel Bar the summer party vibe continues every Friday night with a DJ and the specialty cocktail Watermelon Agua Fresca made with Mi Campo tequila, Jägermeister, rose aperitivo, watermelon juice, chamoy, and aloe leaves as a garnish.
“Downtown Las Vegas is already a vibrant, unique, and exciting destination. Our Summer Friday Fireworks paired with our all-inclusive room package and great summertime block party atmosphere at Carousel Bar and the rooftop pool deck will be even more reasons to come downtown this summer,” added Jossel.
The Plaza’s fireworks will be dependent on weather conditions and are subject to change or cancellation.
