HERO, as the ticker symbol suggests, is a platform for gamers and content creators. Game devs can earn tokens by creating new games. Players are awarded with PLAY when they win matches. Token holders are also rewarded through a proof of stake system. The platform consists of many smart contracts which can be used in game. Players can bet on outcome of matches without worrying about betting sites or escrows running with their money. There is no third party trust involved because smart contracts are used. The devs hope that HEROCoin will revolutionize the e-sports industry by removing the middle men who take a cut out of players’ payout.
