A Message from Andy Tian, CEO and Co-Founder of Uplive

Welcome everyone to our weekly update!

We are happy to introduce our newest game “Giftomon”. Blockchain games are another major area of focus for GIFTO, on top of virtual gifting. Leaders of our game production team include some of the best planning managers and art directors from my time at Zynga. Giftomon is the first blockchain game developed by AIG’s gaming team.

Giftomon world, 8 different species of Giftomon run free. Players may collect and breed Giftomon to create their own personal collection. Players can then challenge their opponents to battles and strategically breed Giftomon to acquire new combat strengths or go to the marketplace to trade, buy, sell or rent Giftomon. No two giftomon are alike and the game uses blockchain technology to record ownership and store all transactions. Come and embark on a journey into this colorful, adventureland with us!

By mating higher quality Giftomon,the offsprings will have higher chances to possess stronger qualities.

The smaller the player Giftomon’s generation is, the shorter the incubation period.

Users will be able to send GIFTO gifts to friends on Uplive in addition to sending gifts via direct message within the app.

We will guide users to purchase GTOs directly from exchanges.

We will develop a system that supports the wallet on the Universal Gifting platform and in games.

Universal Gifting v1.5

A pure GTO version is under development. UG will leverage our hybrid chain and the wallet. Our focus for Q2:

Ramp up GTO gifting activity

Starting a gift customization platform, allowing influencers to request desired virtual gifts. Designers and artists will then be able to sketch out the desired gift design, initializing the whole process of customization, development, and gifting in this ecosystem.

We are undergoing a testing phase with a number of Youtube influencers. Once we have fully upgraded our wallet and UGP experience, we will give access to more broadcasters and influencers in June.
