How it works

                  will work?     ... could work!

The main parts

  • Bitcone admin

    • Operated by Two Scoop Games
    • Generates Bitcones and stores them in a database
    • A Bitcone consists of:
      • Id (simply a generated uuid)
      • Series
      • QR code (for use on printed tokens)
      • Flavor (randomly selected upon creation from flavors.json list)
      • Owner (empty by default, added when a user registers Bitcone to their email)
      • Created date
  • Physical Bitcone coins

    • Created for handing out at events, just a transportation method for the Bitcone, not the actual currency
  • Validation service (takes a Bitcone id and a user's email)

    • Checks to see if the Bitcone is in the database
    • Assigns a user email to the Bitcone

What you can do with Bitcones

Nothing yet, Bitcones are more of an investment opportunity, or for use on the darkweb

But really - think of a Bitcone like a Two Scoop Games gift card and just something fun.

  • Trade Bitcones with an friend (coming soon)
  • Give a Bitcone to someone (coming soon)
  • Spend a Bitcone (coming soon)
    • Game key to get a copy of a game
    • In-game key to unlock upgrades, items, in lieu of in-app purchase etc.

User flow for using a Bitcone

  1. User scans QR tag on the physical coin - or - User follows a pre-filled link from within one of our games after "earning" the Bitcone
  2. Bitcone webpage takes the Bitcone uuid as a query string passes it to backend service
  3. Backend service "licks" the Bitcone to validate it against a list on the server
  4. Webpage returns a flavor to the user (the same Bitcone always returns the same flavor)
  5. User is given the current options for redeeming the Bitcone or can save it for use with any future offer.
