Kusama integration into Cryptoman

6 years ago

Hello! We’re in the process of building a cross-blockchain play2earn platform. Currently, our first game Cryptoman is already fully functional and running with 50-200 players per day. Due to our cross-blockchain nature, we’d love to explore the possibilities of the Kusama network.

As a starting point, we’d like to integrate Kusama into the existing game and host a tournament to spread the word and the token. Having KSM as an in-game currency on cryptoman would add an use case for token holders and introduce the network to new users. Especially the tournament will help with getting the word out.

Here’s the proposal: Link

As written in the comments below, we consider this integration as a first step of a collaboration. At the moment we are particularly looking into multi blockchain state channel integration on Kusama or Substrate.

Hi Julia! thanks for sharing this! I have a few questions on the proposal:

  • could you give us a bit of background for the tip behind it?
  • will the 300 KSM be used entirely for those playing? if so, which percentage will be used for airdropping and which one, if any, will be sold by you? or are there any other plans to use these?
  • what are your plans with Kusama after this first integration has been completed?
  • what are the technical specs for an integration like the one you plan to do?

Thanks!

Thanks for your interest! I'm happy to answer your questions.

  • We don't have KSM, so trying to get the funds for the initial proposal. Also this way, we can already find out in advance if the kusama community likes our proposal :-)
  • 150 KSM will be distributed among the players during the game event following the Kusama integration and 150 KSM will be kept by us to cover our expenses for development and tournament execution. The plan can be found in the linked document.
  • We've got a concept for a multi-blockchain statechannel solution and are currently trying to grasp the state Kusama is at, what's already built, what needs to be built and how we could prove to be of value.
  • The integration proposed here is very simple. We would enable players to purchase lives with KSM and withdraw profit in KSM. If an ETH player is killing a KSM player, he'll receive the life's value in KSM. We're not a proper dapp (yet) at this stage, as we first wanted to see if we manage to attract users with this concept before spending a lot of time and resources on complicated technical implementation.
