Blockchain project: Bitcademy, a real-life version of Fantasy Football

Bitcademy aims to bring a gaming element into the scouting process to allow investors to buy and trade academy players through an AI based digital marketplace creating a real-life version of ‘Fantasy Football’. In addition, Bitcademy aims to stimulate local economies in underdeveloped by building brick and mortar football academies providing educational facilities that will be open to members of the community.

Bitcademy acknowledges the prohibitive issues facing youth in many developing countries – in which there are many talented athletes – from making a living from playing football. Modern football is driven by large corporations and multi-billion dollar sponsorship deals and these huge players have a vested interest in keeping the structures of the modern game profitable for themselves. This concentration of wealth has overlooked a rich source of talent outside of Europe. Bitcademy aims to develop an AI and blockchain based marketplace which allows for the development of an ecosystem through players can be graded for the skills and talent and trading according to their potential whilst also trying to give some of the world’s most disadvantaged youth educational opportunities.

Bitcademy is a Polish-based blockchain startup and is planning on holding its ICO in Q4 2018, and has boldly set its sights on disrupting talent acquisition in the most popular sport in the world. The plan to gamify the talent acquisition process will be augmented by the AI Talent Prediction Algorithm, which will allow the investors to follow the development of the players, which will allow investors and fans to pick, fund and help create the future stars of the beautiful game. Investors will benefit by selling on the most talented players to clubs in the established leagues around the world.

ABOUT US:

Tomasz Krzystek, the founder of Bitcademy, has long seen the value in how technology can change people’s lives. Tom has over 12 years experience in managing projects across multiple countries and really sees the value blockchain can bring to social impact projects.

Tom has said “I really see blockchain playing a big role in the disruption of social impact projects. We are focussing on football academies, bringing opportunities to people in the most disadvantaged places on the planet, but that is not the only thing which blockchain will be able to achieve. We see the huge potential for blockchain to radically alter the aid industry and the NGO sector. Transparency and new economic models are going to have a transformative effect on the benefit of millions. It is crazy to think that this has not been implemented yet and we want to be one of the first.”
