Mossland ICO
The gaming industry will produce some of the best examples in augmented reality projects. Augmented Reality is an enhanced version of reality where live direct or indirect views of physical real-world environments are augmented with superimposed computer-generated images over a user's view of the real-world, thus enhancing one’s current perception of reality. Games, being the creator of many alternative worlds in which we develop a surreality to our own, are the foremost runners in sectors that will benefit from advances in AR technology. Think of Pokemon Go - while having a coffee at a local coffee shop, instead of talking to your friends (real), you were trying to catch Pokemons (surreal). I hope that this technology will further improve social interaction between players, rather than creating asocial nerds.
There is a leading technology developer called Mossland (Mossland ICO (https://moss.land/)) that is trying to ;
- connect location-based environment with the game
- trade/monetize on achievements while playing the game
- create a location-based P2P ad marketplace
As most current big projects, Mossland is being built on blockchain. A game does not essentially requires to be on Blockchain but monetizing the achievements do. The explain the requirement for blockchain as:
We want the assets that are accumulated within Mossland to be diversified and have value not only within the game but also outside the game. Since Mossland aims to provide global services, we want currencies from all countries to flow smoothly inside the game. We believe that the global flow and at the same time transparent and secure transactions that Mossland is after are best realized through cryptocurrencies.
AR makes it possible for virtual objects to be naturally inserted into the real world, and this with Mossland’s concept of trade of Properties and Accessories, they expect to build a new type of market. Thus, the Moss token is being built on Ethereum blockchain as an ERC20 token. There will be three different currencies in the game. While two of them are regular game tokens, Moss will be a limited supply token that will also have uses in the real world.
By employing a strategy of check-in interaction and a combined layer of gameplay, Mossland desires to promote player-player interaction and exchange. Moss will allow gamers to monetize their addiction to the game. The player will be awarded for participating in the game, while they will strive to improve their experience by owning and improving location-based properties. The core idea here is player-centric engagement. When a player explores, achieves, interacts more, they get rewarded more. This fundamental idea makes Mossland a top contender for AR unicorn candidate.
Mossland team comprises of great talent - Samsung and Google Alumni. Advisory board is also very strong. The core team is from South Korea, where AR games are in demand!
