Q2
Q: What’s the relationship between blockchain and game? Will the blockchain be an independent game platform or trading platform in future?

A:

I will answer this question by the following three questions:

1. Can blockchain games enter the mainstream game market, or be limited to gambling games?

At present, blockchain games are mainly gambling ones. The early Apple game Slot was the biggest category, and although it has become a niche, it is still very profitable. The game released by Tencent, Let’s Catch Demons, was said to be integrated with its Consortium blockchain. And We can imagine that the demon we get in the game is a token. Assume that there are 50 million active players in the game, of which 5 million have won the high-level demons.

At this time, Tencent develops another MMO, or a card or other game that can use these demon Tokens that can exist independently in the Tencent Consortium blockchain. These demons in the users’ wallet can also be used in the new game upon login. Then, the new game will get 5 million high quality, stable players in the shortest time.

Many people worry that game developers are unable to make money through this, while it’s quite the contrary. Because it can reduce the user acquisition cost for the game, and the same item can continue to be used across different games. And with cloud games, players can easily enter the game anytime anywhere on any device, and the life cycle of the game will also be extended. In the end, game developers will benefit the most.

It can be best proved byStadia, the cloud game streaming launched by Google during GDC, and Stadia Games and Entertainment, its new first-party game studio. Google believes this will be a $10 billion business in future.

With 5G technology, the life cycle of cloud game is extended. There will be millions of active users under the single worldview, and users can easily access to the game at any time through a Twitter link. With the underlying blockchain, the value of props, characters, and even accounts will continue to rise with the potential to be traded, preserved, and value-added.

2. Whether it is to put the entire game on chain, or put the in-game items on chain?

The mainstream game market is embracing the concept of blockchain. However, the process of the mainstream game development teams learning and developing with blockchain is much slower. In gaming, blockchain is a critical supportive technology, but not fundamental for the game running environment, hardware and network.

There’s no need for the entire game to be on chain. The same is true to gambling games. The concept of random numbers in gambling games is to replace the offline gambling market with a trustable, transparent and efficient settlement of blockchain technology. This, however, is a long process.

3. If it is to apply blockchain technology to games, are there any suitable game form for it in the early stage?

Therefore, we got the conclusion that to apply blockchain technology to games will be the trend. As for which kind of games is more suitable for the application of blockchain technology, gambling is a good direction, but this is not our original intention.

Esports is not a form suitable for us by now. It is particular about timely judgements on required performance and the balance design, which cannot support the value adding of in-game items. People are looking forward to a blockchain version Minecraft, which we think is an ideal form for blockchain to be applied. However, it’s not the best option in the short term, as the open world game is one of the categories that is extremely difficult to develop. Minecraft, now, has no open economic system and trading system. It is because any kind of function addition is an increase in the development difficulty.

Q3
Q: Whats the reason for reduction plan?

If you look at the cryptocurrency network and ecological design, users in the ecosystem will not lose after reduction, but will increase the awareness of unit COCOS tokens in many scenarios.

For a public chain that focuses on the construction of game ecology, the total amount of tokens was previously set at 100 billion in order to match the demand for network endogenous currency in the virtual world of the game. The economic factors of this total amount can be referred to the previous “Number One Player” The design of the virtual society in the movie can also be considered by the demand for base currency of a single economy.

But this is the expectation in the white paper. With the stability of users’ awareness of cryptocurrency and the number of uses in ecological applications, bottlenecks appear. Adjusting the circulation and price is a necessary requirement for COCOS.

For example, to evaluate the NFT in a COCOS ecosystem, if COCOS is used as the base currency, a $1 NFT requires thousands of COCOS. If the price is in US dollars, the single price is counted to 4 decimal places.

These two extreme situations hinder users’ understanding of the unit COCOS tokens and the difficulty of settlement in mathematical calculations.

Therefore, adjusting pricing while reducing volume is inevitable and paving the way for the follow-up. It can be expected that after the adjustment, the DeFi and NFT in the COCOS ecosystem will make greater progress. For example, many defi measurement in the Ethereum ecosystem are priced in USD stablecoins, and the adjusted COCOS is easier to integrate. And COCOS plans to integrate more defi applications and use BSC to carry out technical deployment of bridges.

In fact, every subtle design change of the ecology will be manifested in the technical logic. If it is not technically obvious, then there will be a basis for thinking in the economic model. Cryptocurrency network design is a multi-disciplinary design. If you want to find the essence, you should look at the technical logic. If you want to find the cause and effect, it is best to rise to the macro level. There is no theory to rely on these designs, only to try, and the success or failure is left to the future, but the present is left to a reasonable basis for judgment.

Q4
Q: Does Cocos-BCX plan to deploy DeFi?

A: In recent months, the market value of the DeFi projects has exploded. It has caught the attention of the whole industry, and many investors have made a lot of money. As a recent popular financial concept, distributed finance has three core elements similar to traditional finance: financial assets, financial institutions and financial tools

As a complete decentralized network with complete transaction functions and asset characteristics, cocos-bcx naturally has support for defi features. Compared with the single direction of defi project , Cocos-BCX has a stronger financial asset form, more efficient on-chain funds and Governance institutions and financial tools with the same experience level as traditional finance,The game field with the delivery and use of digital assets as the main form of circulation is even more suitable for defi, which may be the birthplace of the ideal distributed financial form.

The Cocos-BCX team will continue to pay attention to the news in the industry. We aim to create an integrated multi-platform runtime environment for games, providing developers with the convenience and completeness in game development, while bringing users a whole new gaming experience, unprecedented gaming status, and with all the assets obtained in the games being wholly owned by the users.

Q5
Q: What is Cocos-BCX’s plan for the second half of 2021?

A:
Some time ago, we have announced the Cocos-BCX plan for January-July 2021. The COCOS asset will be sailed to Ethereum and gradually start the age of empire, as follows:

  • From October to November 2020, the COCOS Community Earth Dotted Project is launched
  • From December 2020 to January 2021, COCOS Token is deflationary
  • From January to March 2021, COCOS ecology will transfer flowers to BSC: BSC Binance Smart Chain Ecological Product Development 1.0
  • From April to June 2021, the “COCOS Grand Navigation” plan Layer: 2 and ETH ecological product expansion 1.0
  • After April 2021, “COCOS Civilization” project: Blockchain games continue to output
  • After July 2021, “COCOS Empire Age” plan: BSC expands in ETH ecological products

Q3.Dear Sir , Currently the cocos-bcx bounty web site ( https://bounty.cocosbcx.io/ )is not working. This Bounty site has been down for over a month now. so i can’t get the amount of cocos in my bounty account. Do you have an idea to update this web page and bounty program again ? When will it be implemented again ?

Thank you for your question. The old Bounty has finished a while ago and unfortunately now you wouldn’t be able to receive it if you didn’t withdraw on time. Old bounty site had been open for one extra month just for withdrawing request. We did give notice ahead of time, however, you can join our new bounty COW:https://bsc.cocosbcx.io or join our Official English Group :https://t.me/cocosbcxen for Every Friday Crossword Games

Q4.
-Increase the Token price
-Create Valuable Tokens
-Building Community Trust From the 3 aspects above

I want to ask, … Which one is most important to you?

If all of the above was important to you … which one would you do first ??

Generally speaking, instead of just pumping price, we would consider to create valuable tokens and build community awareness and trust would be first hit .

As we all know, price is upon market, and we wish to have users who understand and really support us by our side. We are working down to earth to be a better COCOS with everyone.

Q5.What is the maximum time for COCOS farming? And what percentage. Will I receive Bonus once a day?

Right now first time period of NFT mining (staking)is for one month, and for sure there will be more modules coming right after. You can receive it next day, but for just one day, it might not be that much. For calculation rules, Each level of COCOS NFT has different computing power. The higher the computing power is, the higher the mining efficiency is. Total output = COCOS Nominal value * mining efficiency

Q6.Many new projects made a good impression at first but were suddenly abandoned. How will you manage Your project to gain a place in the market and become a better token in the blockchain world? At the moment , where you are focusing right now ?

As COCOS has been in Market for past three years, we have been deliciated to build a better token every year. In Crypto world, there are a lot of sudden zero value tokens, but for us, it’s a different story. We are mature and have a complete system, more trustworthy with more experience and related background more than just price pumping new project. We are now trying to expand to other mature chains ecologies such as ETH, BSC, nevertheless we are making it work.

Q7. Unemployment was a big problem globally. After Covid, this problem grew even more, of course, $COCOS cannot be expected to solve it alone. So how will $COCOS solve or help unemployment?

This is a very good question. For 2020, most of us just wanted to survive, it’s very hard. We all understand.

That’s why we encountered our Ecological Builders&Angels Incentive Plan 3.0,now it’s shorter time period and no threshold, more welcoming everyone to join us worldwide.
