CALGARY, Alberta, Jan. 24, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ePlay Digital Inc. (CSE:EPY) (Frankfurt:2NY2) announces a contest for free CORE coins for the upcoming Core Sports & Entertainment Network. Participants can win $5,000 worth of free CORE coins for signing up to the Core Network. Participants can earn chances to win by subscribing, following on Facebook and Instagram, and referring friends. CORE coins will go for sale officially in early 2018. To track pre-sales and the ICO, sign up at The Core Network.
CORE Sports & Entertainment coins can be used for advertising, charity, physical goods and digital items in upcoming sports and entertainment properties.
Core Network connects audience engagement and monetization on the blockchain. For brands, product placement and advertising are two ways CORE can be used to further business marketing goals. Brands can help sports and entertainment influencers raise donations for charity, buy CORE when the coin goes on pre-sale and sign up to keep up-to-date. Brands looking for product placement in upcoming sports and entertainment game, film and TV titles can contact ePlay Digital and get more information online.
Fans can win CORE now, play daily fantasy sports and win prizes from the Core Network including CORE coin. CORE Rewards are earned simply by playing upcoming game titles. They can be used for charity, advertising, physical merchandise and digital items. Fans can also support TV, film and game developers by using CORE to become an executive producer, host local screenings, purchase product placement, and walk the red carpet. Athletes, eSports pros, Instagram and YouTube influencers with thousands or millions of followers can now monetize and engage fans and brands with authentic and interactive experiences through ePlay Digital’s Augmented Reality Game Engine on the Core Network.
“Brand activation and fan engagement are best enabled when authentically integrated,” says Trevor Doerksen, CEO of ePlay. “The Core Network is building community through games for sports and entertainment audiences, brands, influencers, athletes, and charities.”
