DreamPlay CTO Andrew Lim: A Talk with Vitalik Buterin

As the CTO of DreamPlay, Andrew Lim is one of the earliest Ethereum investor, as well as a blockchain specialist and had once talked about his idea with Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin in 2016, back when DreamPlay was only an idea.

DreamPlay, the first licensed gambling platform on blockchain, aims to build a world-class blockchain based gambling platform, which will include but not limit to DreamPlay official gambling apps and a Play-to-Player customized betting in an open Eco-System, which provides developers to run their own applications on DreamPlay platform.

Irrespective of the fast development of the online gambling industry, the two issues remain: “trust” and “payment”. That means, players have to accept odds that benefits the dealer or the house, while it’s not uncommon for the house to control the results of a game. Moreover, the fee for deposit and withdrawal is high while the speed is low, and the safety or the funds is not guaranteed.

“The traditional gaming industry needed a change and I’m confident we are going in the right direction.” said by Andrew Lim on the project launch meeting.

With block chain technology, the two lasting issues can finally be eradicated, as the decentralized ledger provides a way to solve the trust issues between players and the online gaming websites. Nothing can be erased or deleted once it’s recorded on the chain.

“Currently the most popular payout methods are credit cards refund and wire. They usually take at least 4–5 days to complete. If players can withdraw and deposit via cryptocurrencies, it will shorten the time taken to a few seconds or hours according to the specific coin used. Bear this in mind, we initiate the DreamPlay project to achieve our goal to reshape the industry.” said by Andrew.
