Gimli
Decentralized live stream interactions
We are proud, and excited, to present Gimli to the community.
What: Gimli is a decentralized eSport platform based on Ethereum blockchain.
Streamers can turn viewers into engaged supporters by organizing bets, votes, ask for donations, and create prize pools for tournaments using the ERC20 Ethereum token GIM.
Gimli is a platform built by gamers for gamers. Our goal is to empowers streamers by enabling them to connect directly with their audience, increase and control novel revenue avenues.
Who: 14 people strong, including
Technology: Ouziel Slama, who co-developed counterparty, Joseph Fiscella who co-founded the Alexandria project
Pro gamers: Luffy - street fighter IV world champion , Stephano - Starcraft 2 foreigner world champion
Streamers: Thud - CEO ASUS ROG school ; Skyyart, Aypierre
Business: cool (!) and experienced team (some Columbia, Harvard, Polytechnique), and real eSports fan
Why: Streamers have massive audience in the hundreds of millions globally. Yet, due to ads-blockers and poor audience retention as soon as the live game over, streamers monetization of their viewers is low. With Gimli, streamers can create entertainments and functionalities with GIM embedded commissions. From substantial source of direct GIM revenues, to better engagement, higher number of minutes watched and increased donations, Gimli's promise is to give control back to streamers.
Partners and adoption: Existing streaming partners with more than one million twitter followers. Streamers set up functionalities and GIM they receive when their audience use Gimli on their stream. Partnering with them creates viral and exponential adoption.
Tokens: GIM tokens are required to run all functionalities including donations, votes, bets and custom ones. Each functionality is a run by trustless Ethereum smart contracts tailor made for streamers. Try our working PoC.
Crowdsale detail: 90 Million GIM will be exchanged for ETH, with a portion reserved to eSport professionals and early backers.
