Press release:
SEATTLE, WASHINGTON (AUGUST 8, 2018) – 8 Circuit Studios, formed by industry veterans with over a century of combined experience at leading companies such as Nintendo, Microsoft and Electronic Arts, have launched a new website for their upcoming Token sale, which will focus on their cryptocurrency, the 8 Bit Token (8BT). The website, located at 8circuitstudios.io, will rapidly become the home of all things related to the upcoming launch of the Token sale and other blockchain-integrated products to be announced in the coming weeks.

8 Circuit Studios’ team will be using blockchain technology in new ways — offering additional features beyond basic currencies that developers can integrate into their games, to create living, breathing economies and virtual worlds that players can not just explore, but exist within, and move between.

The Token sale will signify the first step in building the Metaverse, an entirely digital online universe of universes and a massive gaming ecosystem. This new Metaverse will offer an open opportunity for other game developers and publishers to create shared experiences for gamers. By using the Ethereum blockchain, 8 Circuit Studios is able to create, attribute and safeguard digital assets — that you can own and store, along with your cryptocurrency, in a virtual wallet.

By developing special digital assets, 8 Circuit Studios is building the foundation for eliminating the barriers between game worlds, while also creating a platform to make entry easy for both gamers and developers. Players will experience the opportunity to truly own their Digital Assets, while game developers and publishers will find new, exciting and profitable methods to develop even more highly immersive games.
