HERO- the Austrian eSports Coin! Update + Giveaway!

Maybe you guys remember my post about an Austrian ICO a few weeks ago:

HEROcoin - the first Austrian ICO is here! FREE TOKEN for everyone!

Since I wrote about the ICO back then, I also want to give you guys a update now.

Before we come to the news, here is a little video showing what HERO is about:

The ICO is over - what now?

After the succesful ICO, the team behind HERO was busy handling the many bounty request. Since they offered many options to get some bounties, a lot of them were issued.

But of course giving out bounties isn't the only thing they have been doing since them. Another big thing they have been doing was forming a partnership with esports.com.

This could be huge - two companies focusing on a industry which will for sure have big growth in the next years. Sounds promising.

I am really looking forward to 2018, when the Coin is going to be implemented on herosphere.gg. Their roadmap is clearly showing that this is a longterm project. This is great - eSports are just developing and rising to record heights every year.

How can I still get Herocoins?

If you have missed your chance at the ICO or during the hunt for bounties - here is your chance! A few bounty-hunters without any deeper interest in the project are already selling their token even before the official launch on the exchanges.

For example I picked up some coins on EtherDelta for under half the ICO-price today. Here is the link to ED: https://etherdelta.com/#0xe477292f1b3268687a29376116b0ed27a9c76170-ETH

But you don't even need to invest money if you want some of their coins. You might as well be creative and win some PLAY by suggesting a great slogan -> Klick me!

And I even got another chance for fellow stemmians.

Giveaway for Steemians!

Want to get some coins without investing any money? Well, I give you the chance to do so!

In order to compete for the coins, you will just have to post your opinion on HERO. What do you like about it? What features would you like to see on the site?

Just post what you can think of.

The three best posts will receive 333 PLAY token as a reward.

My thoughts

Of course I am not taking part myself. However I still want to share mine.

In my opinion this sounds like project with a lot of potential for the future. Nearly all 14 to 18 year olds I know compete in eSports or at least watch them. But I guess nobody doubts the potential of eSports in genereal, since it even is discussed to get olympic in the future.

So the question is not, if eSports betting will come - The question is where the users will bet. And I see some good points for HERO here.

1. They have a running product (herosphere.gg)

2. They are set in Austria - a country with a friendly attitude to startups and cryptocurrencies.

3. Their product looks good. In a modern world of many alternatives, a beautiful product can make the difference. And their product definitely is catchy and looks great.

So if they don't mess up and deliver, they could rise quickly. And with them, their coin could rise big as well. So I will definitely stay in for now and even buy some more PLAY if bounty-hunters continue to drop.

Of course there is still the risk that some other company makes the business in the long run. However I have not found better alternatives yet. If you know some, point them out to me please.
