Stryking Advisors Part 1: Petter Sehlin
Founder Youcal AB & Partner True Global Ventures
Tell us a bit about yourself and your background.
Well, I like to label myself as an “an engineer and internet advocate with an entrepreneurial mindset”. I have been involved in the internet industry since the early days and have built and run multiple companies within classified ads, gaming, hosting and data storage. Today I’m active as an entrepreneur, advisor and angel investor within the industry.
When did you start getting active in the crypto/blockchain space?
I started looking at Bitcoin in 2014 and tried to find out what this still infant technology could be used for. Already back then Bitcoin showed some of its shortcomings and I was early to adopt Ethereum when it was announced. I’m today advising several blockchain ventures based on Ethereum and am working in cooperation with Microsoft to establish Ethereum as the industry standard for private and consortium blockchains.
How did you get involved with Stryking and what is your advisory focus?
I’m a founding partner of True Global Ventures, an investor in Stryking, and an active member of the ICO. As an advisor in Stryking’s ICO I mainly provide support on technology and tokenomics.
What is the number one reason why you like the STRYKZ token sale?
The STRYKZ enables the holder to engage in friendly games, based on real data, on potentially thousands of fantasy sports games all over the world. In the future, I’m looking forward to being able to challenge my friends on games in the Indian cricket-league!
How do you see the future of the STRYKZ token in the next years?
The STRYKZ token will make it possible for Stryking to, through a common and entirely secure currency, license the Football-Stars platform to any club, business or organisation in the world. This will make STRYKZ the no. 1 fantasy sports token. I’m looking forward to finding out about all of the awesome applications we will see on the Football-Stars platform in the future.
Finally, the most important question: What is your favourite football club?
When it comes to sports, I’m a local patriot and will have to say ÖSK, our local team that will win the Swedish league in 2018! FORZA SVARTVITT! ☺
Thank you, Petter! Stay tuned as we will continue this series, introducing our team and advisors in the coming weeks…
