Hey everyone,
We wanted to let you know that the Carbon platform will be taking a break.
Since relaunching in March we’ve struggled to gain users, and the Carbon tokens have struggled to see the demand necessary to support the price. The low token price has a significant impact on our marketing abilities.
The crypto space right now is still very quiet. We have noticed the response to any and all of our marketing attempts has been minimal and the crypto space is filled with bots.
On Friday 21st June Carbon will go into hibernation mode until further notice. If the market improves significantly, we can justify spending many more hours on development to improve the platform further.
We’ve struggled with misuse of the platform by many users as well, including attempts to hack or exploit our CC and tipping system as well as cheating in the games via multiple accounts. In general Carbon has felt like a welfare system above all else, and this has ruined the enjoyment for a lot of the genuine users.
Play to Earn gaming is a difficult thing. It’s really impossible to allow users to earn free crypto whilst still protecting the price of that crypto. Our ideas for future developments will help with this issue, however we’ve been working long hours for many months with no revenue at all, and this cannot continue. The only feasible way for Carbon to run is to have more income streams via new features — but they also rely on many more users which will not happen until alt season is genuinely here.
We’ll keep an eye on the situation over the coming months. We don’t want all of our effort to be for nothing, so we are open to returning when the time is right.
Thank you all for your time and use of the platform. In particular our OG users who have supported us the whole time and been loyal to us no matter what.
Any CC balances will be automatically withdrawn to your connect MetaMask wallets after Friday 21st so please connect a wallet if you are an email user, before then.
Until then, the platform and Super Sessions will run as usual.
We hope to see you all again soon under better circumstances.
Thanks,
Carbon Team
