HollyGold Is Leading The Charge In Blockchain-Based Entertainment

Whether you’ve noticed or not, there’s been a sharp rise in consumer preference for digital content since the dawn of the internet. This is mainly due to the lack of legal barriers to accessing information on the world wide web. With a simple internet connection, anyone can access whatever information they desire. Further, they can get it any way they desire, from movies, sports, politics, religion, etc. Nevertheless, the current iteration of the internet, commonly referred to as web 2.0, is plagued with a variety of issues such as centralized control of digital information, lack of data transparency,  challenges in protecting authorship (often leading to piracy) just to new a few. Because of these limitations, many people become discouraged from taking a more active role on the web to create movies, games, and other forms of entertainment.

To solve this significant problem, a variety of blockchain-based entertainment applications have been developed to address most of the issues plaguing web 2.0 These include but not limited to:

  • HollyGold
  • Flixxo
  • Theta Networ
  • TV two
  • Monvid
  • Breaker
  • Vuulr

All the above networks have been making significant strides in order to revamp the current entertainment industry. But as we all know, the success and level of influence of a company depends, to a greater extent, on the reputation of the participants, and not just the idea itself. And that is exactly where HollyGold stands out from the crowd.

HollyGold is a revolutionary blockchain-based entertainment company founded by world-renowned experts in the entertainment and financial technology industries. The company has formed a strategic partnership with Base FX, a well respected digital effects company in the world. Base FX has numerous awards in the visual effects industry, with production studios and offices in globally distributed offices in Beijing, Kuala Lumpur, Los Angeles, and others. Moreover, Base FX has also assisted in the production of more than 200 films and has equally expanded its collaboration as it teamed up with Industrial Light and Magic, another US-based visual effect-related company.

On November 17th, CEO of HollyGold Dior Wu spoke at Michael Madsen’s grand imprint ceremony, held at TCL Chinese Theatre, in Hollywood, California. Madsen is known most notably for his role as Vic Vega in Reservoir Dogs. The event was meant to pay tribute to Michael for his decades-long career contributions. The ceremony was proudly sponsored by HollyGold to show its dedication to the Hollywood Film Industry.

The HollyGold blockchain has its own native token - HGOLD - which is used to facilitate all transactions within the network. The chain has adopted a series of technologies such as hash locking, distributed private key control, etc to maintain security while retaining the transparency and overall integrity of the network. HollyGold will serve as a home for a variety of services such as celebrity interaction ceremonies, tours, VIP dining packages, and more. Anyone who wants to gain access to these services and also take part in the further development of the HollyGold ecosystem will need to purchase the HGOLD tokens.

The HollyGold token (HGOLD) was sold on DigiFinex exchange from the 9th to 13th of November 2020 via their Apollo launchpad. The event was very successful with the last round of token sale sold out in just 20 minutes. The token sale attracted 5,6k participants, and in total raised $4.9m. DigiFinex has opened trading for HGOLD/USDT on 16th November 2020 at 11:00 (GMT+8), with price shooting up by 300% within 24 hours of opening the trading pair.

Blockchain-based entertainment platforms have existed before Hollygold and many more might be launched in the future. Regardless, HollyGold has been the only one to garner a substantial public interest within a very short time. This is mainly due to its partnership with renowned companies like Base FX and the fact that it is supported by many celebrities, entrepreneurs, and investors around the world.
