Through your VR glasses: A Startup Sets Up A Virtual Apartments Contest

Through your vr glasses: a startup sets up a virtual apartments contest

MARK.SPACE, an ambitious Singapore-based startup with Russian roots, has recently made a visual designer construction kit publicly available, and started a 3D design competition among its users promising massive token rewards. In addition, the platform has cooperation agreements with such partners as Jaguar Land Rover, GAS Jeans, Desigual, Trussardi, Baldinini, Patricia Pepe, Liu-Jo, Dstrezzed, Satorisan and others. Therefore, there is no need for a SOFT-CAP installation.

Imaginary rooms and real tokens

Founded in 2015, MARK.SPACE is showing great promise, and it is one of a few VR startups that has decided to develop a platform built on its own Blockchain.

The project represents itself as “one-of-a-kind platform where anyone can create their own 3D website or unit that is compatible with VR — in a fast and easy way”. This also has applications in business-to-business transactions – users can apply the model for business, e-commerce and communities.  

Following the project’s roadmap, a concept development decentralization platform was finished in July 2017. And in the end of 2017 the project launched a 3D constructor for users.

On February 9 2018, MARK.SPACE management announced a virtual real estate contest for the project’s participants. The so called “Best Apartment” contest allows all registered users to create from scratch a 3D and VR compatible online web-space, or unit, as the company calls it.

According to the announcement, the contest will end on February 28 2018 and will include three nominations: “Best Creative Job”, “Best Content”, and “Community Favorite”.

The most popular submissions in each nomination will be awarded a large amount of MRK tokens – the platform’s internal currency. Submissions are to be published either on Facebook or Twitter, with all votes coming from the platform’s large community, the announcement says.

Make it real, virtually!

According to the project’s white paper, the MARK.SPACE universe consists of multiple VR spaces (units), in which each unit can be linked directly to its own top-level domain.

“The property right to the units is guaranteed by recording all transactions involving units (creation, sale, purchase or rental) on the Blockchain”, says the white paper. All unit owners may buy, sell or rent their units to others using smart contracts.

The startup has already invested more than $5 million USD of personal funds in the development of the platform and currently has a working prototype.

The first stage of MARK.SPACE tokensale closed on February 7 2018 and the company has succeed to raise $7 million. The hard cap of this stage was $35 million. The second stage is planned for January 2019, after the goal of Blockchain implementation will be reached.

An internal currency – the MARK token (MRK) – is a utility token allowing all users to sell and buy VR spaces and objects, consume various goods and use services, pay salaries to their employees and to buy advertisements to promote their businesses through the platform.

Bitstamp Currently Receives Over 100,000 new User Registrations per day

Cryptocurrency exchanges have seen major user growth in 2017. In some cases, this also means their services are subject to degraded performance. Bitstamp seems to be doing quite well in both aspects, though. Not only is their platform pretty solid, they also welcome around 100,000 new users every day. An astonishing number, to say the very least.

There are few exchanges out there which can handle an increased workload. Coinbase has struggled quite a bit throughout 2017 in this regard. Kraken has a bad infrastructure, but an upgrade is on the way. Even non-fiat currency exchanges struggle from time to time Poloniex has seen multiple outages this year alone. Not to mention the number of DDoS attacks performed against these platforms on a regular basis. Cryptocurrency is very hot right now and exchanges are struggling a bit. Bitstamp, on the other hand, seems to do relatively fine in most cases.

Bitstamp is Coping With Major Our Growth

More specifically, their platform seems to hold up quite well without issues. No major problems have been reported with performance, orders going awry, or anything like that. Getting your account verified, on the other hand, is a waiting game in its own regard. It is not uncommon for people to wait a week or longer to complete this process. It causes some friction, but there’s a good reason for these days. Around 100,000 new users register for Bitstamp every single day right now.

This is quite an interesting statement by the Bitstamp CEO. Most companies aren’t as transparent regarding such delays or new user signups. The demand for bitcoin and various altcoins has been surging as of late. It is evident this demand will not slow down anytime soon either. Given the recent value increases of all major cryptocurrencies, people are going crazy for anything in this industry right now. For Bitstamp, this means a lot more users who have yet to sign up for this platform in the very near future.

At the same time, using a third-party service provider for user verification may be an option worth exploring. Veteran cryptocurrency users don’t want their information in the hands of too many entities right now These KYC and AML procedures are a necessary evil in the world of cryptocurrency exchanges. At the same, it may only be a matter of time until centralized platforms become obsolete. These are incredibly exciting times in the world of cryptocurrency, to say the very least.
