Ahead of our much-anticipated Token Sale Event, we take a look at how the STRYKZ utility token will fit alongside the current Football-Stars user model, highlighting some of the new key features that will be made available to the FBS community.

The Football-Stars Model

Unlike traditional football (soccer) management games, Football-Stars provides users with a real experience of team management based on real-life player performance data, as provided by Opta.

Football-Stars is free-to-play, giving users instant access to the game with no upfront cost. However, some of the premium functions and content require payment to access.

Currently, players can obtain coins (the in-game currency) by completing a range of different activities (winning the daily free challenge, inviting friends or unlocking achievements). They can also purchase coin packages directly. Coins allow players to unlock premium content.

This current system will not be affected by the integration of the STRYKZ token. Football-Stars will remain free-to-play, and users happy with the current model will not need to migrate across to the STRYKZ model.

However, there are some perks to look forward to with STRYKZ.

Football-Stars And STRYKZ

Football-Stars is already a popular platform for fantasy sports enthusiasts. The STRYKZ integration will take it to the next level.

With STRYKZ, users will have early access to new features, functionalities and exclusive content, as well as more opportunities to gain and spend within the platform (in addition to the existing Coins system).

Far from isolating the already established Football-Stars fanbase, the STRYKZ integration promises to enhance the experience for users and open the door to a wider audience of participants.

Growing The Football-Stars Community

Initially, members will be rewarded with STRYKZ tokens for inviting and introducing new users to the platform. This introductory referral reward programme, in the style of an ICO bounty programme, will see a significant and exponential upsurge in the number of players engaging with Football-Stars.

In addition to user referrals, further incentives will be launched periodically.

Firstly, users will be able to obtain STRYKZ tokens by participating in the Token Sale Event. However, as the rollout of the STRYKZ utility token progresses, active users will also gain rewards for contributing content to the platform. By generating and promoting their own token-based challenges, creating news pieces, videos or providing services that enhance the user experience, Football-Stars players can accrue additional STRYKZ tokens.

The token will also be used as an incentive with developers, consultants, marketing partners and others to continue to stimulate the growth of the ecosystem. As part of this process, Stryking has brought various brand ambassadors on board, like Luís Figo.

What Does The Future Hold?

So far, there has been substantial industry recognition for Football-Stars, with nominations for Best Daily Fantasy Sports Game & Innovator of the Year by the Fantasy Sports Trade Association (FTSA).

More recently, the STRYKZ team won two pitch competitions for token generating events, at Bloxpo (www.bloxpo.co) in Stockholm, Sweden, and at d10e in Malta (www.d10e.biz).

For Football-Stars and STRYKZ, the future is exciting and very promising. The possibilities and potential for growth and development are limitless.

There are already plans to involve more professional football players within the platform so that they can interact directly with their fanbase. This feature will open up a whole world of opportunities for both professionals and fans to engage directly via the platform.

On top of that, Football-Stars is already looking to expand into new markets, providing fully localised versions of the platform and offering the platform as a white label product. These steps will attract and grow an international audience.

And as the user community grows so will the demand for STRYKZ.
