#20 BOLT Vault: Play 27/2/2020

This Vault, we introduce a new partner MB Malik, update on the state of #play on Lightning Round and more!

BOLT X MB Malik

We are proud to announce our new partnership with MB Malik UK, a leading sports equipment manufacturer, which will span advertising, sponsorships and co-marketing.

BOLT will be introducing MB Malik’s products to our cricket fans and users across our platforms by integrating them into our content. MB Malik will also be sponsoring rewards for the cricket-themed Lightning Round, as well as our upcoming cricket show, Clean Bowled. After this pilot sponsorship, we are working with MB Malik to acquire BOLT tokens for subsequent sponsorship campaigns to access advertising inventory on the BOLT+ platform, as part of our strategy to create organic business demand for BOLT tokens.

Lightning Round 101

BOLT+’s new interactive feature, Lightning Round, is coming!

A weekly football and cricket quiz show, BOLT users can play for free and stand to win BOLT tokens as well as sponsor merchandise each Lightning Round if they answer all questions correctly. We are also looking to implement a feature where players can use BOLT tokens to earn an “extra life” to stay in the game if they incorrectly answer a question.

This will be the latest token utility case of the BOLT token, tying the BOLT+ and Pegasus apps together and promoting mass token adoption. Community testing will begin soon. Sign up here.
