Hello Gametime,
I've just posted in Brad's AMA on reddit and I thought I would send you guys an email too.
BitShares can allow Gametime to increase their profits selling tickets and gain up to $80 per new user they sign up to use gametime.

The BitShares ecosystem is open to all and allows businesses to set-up shop and earn the lions share of the fees generated by your business. For detailed info, see: https://bitshares.org/blog/2015/06/08/announcing-bitshares-2.0/


Think the internet and having a website, but for finance and asset (game tickets) exchange.

Here are some companies that have already integrated with BitShares, and their press releases:


Startup incubator Peak Venture Capital: http://www.fox5vegas.com/story/29458521/peak-venture-group-adopts-the-bitshares-network

Financial exchange CCEDK: http://www.digitaljournal.com/pr/2586995

Cryptocurrency investment group Banx Capital: http://finance.yahoo.com/news/banx-capital-joins-bitshares-exchange-162900334.html


BitShares is a decentralized ecosystem and financial exchange that would allow you to reduce your costs, reduce your risk and increase your profits by earning referral income for every new user you on-board to your business, and will allow you to issue tickets in a more efficient way. Your tickets could become tradable, you have the option to retain full control to revoke tickets, and you will profit from the fees generated every time your tickets are swapped in a secondary market.


Everybody wins: The issuer of an asset (Gametime tickets, in your case) gets the fees from the use of that asset by everybody else's users on the BitShares network. The recruiter of a user gets the fees from the use of the network for everybody else's products.

... and we all benefit from greater economic volume - which itself attracts more users and service providers.


So, bottom line: Network members compete to win and retain customers - usually drawn from completely different demographics. Our affiliate incentive program gives them credit for everything those customers do on the whole network - by introducing them to products and services offered by other network partners. They gain by having their own products and services marketed to the customers of other network members. They gain by sharing market depth and liquidity in a single global marketplace. They gain by sharing in the "unhackable" and "transparent" set of order books that protect the consumers for the first time from exchange counterparty risk.

BitShares also allows the asset-issuer (Gametime) to comply with KYC and AML laws, you get to decide who can hold your tickets, and if they are allowed to trade them with other users, the whole world, or just with Gametime

I have started a thread on the community forums to organize bts members (it's a free and open system) to be available to help you with any questions you have! I hope you find us welcoming, thank you https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php/topic,17480.msg222585.html

Hi Brad, have you head of BitShares?
