Unikrn obtains defensible Patent Pending on Crypto Betting in Video Games

Fans of Unikrn are about to be very happy. So are our partners. And many companies that arent partnered with us will probably start looking our way soon.

Unikrn has created and applied for patents for the creation of crypto betting on interactive gaming. Yes, we have been working on patents for crypto betting and more since long before we held the UnikoinGold token sale. After multiple filings starting in early 2014, we are happy to say that some of our patent-pending submissions are now defensible.

In the simplest forms, we have developed broad coverage for crypto betting on video games. We have also started the process to cover our IP on Unikrn Wallet, the high-speed, gas-free transaction engine allowing for frictionless live betting....

Can someone please explain to me how IP based on open sourced code and work that is clearly not Unikrn's own in its original format can be patented? And then Rahul Sood still claims it to be decentralised? Unikrn is surely up for the "literal opposite of what satoishi wanted to achieve" award? You take a concept and initial technology thats not even your own, you take institutionalised VC money until you are balls deep in it you can't move then offer video game betting - again which has been around for years - and you have the audacity to call it "decentralised"? Rahul is the Donald Trump of crypto, draining that crypto swamp one venture investment round at a time. And if you don't agree he will sue your ass.

We are focused on creating the greatest Esports betting and entertainment token on Earth. On that journey we recognize that we cannot please everyone. To be able operate an honest and fully regulated business, we cannot be fully decentralized. That does not mean we won't build decentralized applications. What we announced today was a readiness to protect patents we had filed in order to encourage partnerships in the US Esports space. We are not disciples of Satoshi. We are a fully functional legitimate business.

I like forward to these patents being tested in the future.
