BitCrystals Price Rising as Spells of Genesis Approaches Launch

Bitcoin Press Release: Cryptocurrency fuelling the blockchain-based game was a key source of funding. As the full launch of EverdreamSoft’s Spells of Genesis (SoG) nears, the blockchain-based token powering the digital trading card game, BitCrystals (BCY), has seen a fairly significant rise in price.

After a price-peak in March, BCY saw a period of bearish activity up to late May, until the price received a bump.

Going into July the BCY sat at 0.00010497 BTC ($0.07 USD), according to CoinGecko, and illustrated another climb in the game-based cryptocurrency.

According to the BitCrystal’s GitHub page, 14.3 million BCY were distributed during the sale, raising 40 bitcoins, while the remaining 55.5 million BCY were slated to be destroyed or burned.

The crowdsale was a big help to the development of Spells of Genesis, said Korteova. From the very beginning, EverdreamSoft’s goal was to make SoG more than a regular trading card game, operating under “the whole idea of a blockchain-based game and of true ownership of game assets.”

“We were not crowdfunding just the game, but the whole vision behind it,” said Korteova, adding, project backers became more than simple donors, they also became “co-owners of parts of the project. This was possible thanks to BitCrystals.”

BitCrystals are digital assets based on the Counterparty platform. It allows Spells of Genesis’ currency to operate as an independent token while still existing on the Bitcoin blockchain.BitCrystals can be used to purchase trading cards within the […]
