The Global Digital Entertainment Summit 2018 (the “Summit”), jointly organised by China’s Sina Games and Macau’s MGS Entertainments Show, was successfully held in The Venetian Macao Resort Hotel from 13 to 15 November, with “New Era — Innovative Technology & Intellectual Entertainment” as its theme. The Summit invited Hong Kong’s Alphaslot and top Chinese technology companies such as Huawei, Sina, and NetEase. As Hong Kong’s sole representative, Alphaslot is taking its core blockchain technology to revolutionise the industry ecosystem of the popular tourism hotspots, which have over a hundred million people visiting annually, such as Macau, Singapore and Las Vegas, by bringing a brand new, professional and unique insight to the industry.

Headquartered in Hong Kong and the Greater Bay Area, Alphaslot‘s team comprises technology experts and university professors from both China and abroad, as well as the advisory team that includes entertainment gaming groups and investment funds from Europe and the US. Currently, the product development has successfully entered the testing stage. At the summit, Mr. Raymond Chan, CEO of Alphaslot, delivered a talk on “How can blockchain technology change the gaming world”, where he described the future development of the US$200 billion entertainment gaming business, and conducted a demonstration of the blockchain-based product.

The size of the global gaming market is expected to exceed US$130 billion in 2018, of which more than half comes from e-sports and social interaction games, representing a year-on-year growth of 25%. Gaming entertainment, also a sizeable entertainment industry, recorded a revenue of US$129 billion in 2016. With the ever-growing trend of globalisation in e-sports, it is expected that there will be an explosive growth in the number of gamers. With e-sports and gaming entertainment possessing similar stimulating and competitiveness, Alphaslot combines these two aspects in terms of gaming formats, players and marketing via blockchain in order to enhance the industry’s competitiveness.

At the Summit, Mr. Raymond Chan, CEO of Alphaslot, said, “The global gaming entertainment industry is set to climb to US$200 billion. New technologies such as 3D and VR are widely applied in the industry, but the market remains frustrated in its efforts to develop new clientele. The rise of blockchain technology, however, will break these hurdles and usher the global entertainment gaming industry into a new interactive era. Currently, communication difficulties among the interchain still persist in blockchain technology, plagued with issues such as slow transaction processing and low capacity. In addressing these issues, Alphaslot provides a brand-new solution while serving as the bridge that allows blockchain mutual support and transaction, effectively consolidating e-sports and all entertainment gaming venues, integrating the online virtual environment with the physical environment, creating a world of entertainment with 100 million participants annually.”

As for the company’s development strategy, digital assets are also an important aspect of Alphaslot’s development. Traditionally, digital assets are fully owned by game developers, but with blockchain technology, it is possible to truly achieve player ownership of in-game digital assets such as tools, gifts and avatars. In the future, the players may be able to take their e-pets to offline arenas and engage in competition with other players, or even integrating their collections of various assets earned in different arenas…such forms of O2O exchange is made possible on the Alphaslot blockchain entertainment platform.
