After the successful completion of the presale of tokens (FLOT), the official crowdsale is now on and gaining excellent pace. This exercise provides a perfect opportunity for backers that want to support the world’s first lottery hedged on the blockchain, to buy the tokens.
Developed by a Hong Kong-based firm, Passado Company Limited, FireLotto intends to avail a total of 77% of its tokens to the public. The exercise has so far raised more than US$ 3 million.
The core development team of FireLotto have faith that when it starts operating on full throttle, the lottery will transform the online gambling industry by introducing the benefits of the blockchain technology.
The team’s conviction is further reaffirmed because the project presents numerous opportunities for backers to earn. For instance, the token holders shall receive commissions for every ticket that the platform sells, and the price of the tokens will most certainly spike consistently once the lotto goes live.
These two factors and the idea of securing commission payouts using smart contracts will guarantee the backers have an endless stream of revenue.
