Why Coin2Play?
Coin2Play aims to leverage the distributed ledger technology (DLT) aka blockchain for its decentralized nature of the operation. This way they plan to have transparent and distributed systems, controlled and maintained by all the participants, instead of relying on central body control.
The Coin2Play platform is developed with a hybrid implementation of Proof-of-Work (PoW) and Masternode system. With a robust infrastructure in place, Coin2Play implements a payment model giving stable returns over the investments made by users, miners, and masternodes.
Coin2Play provides its own API for easy integration of its payment services online games, casino gambling, and other platforms.
Reason For Choosing Masternode
The Coin2Play team believes that Masternode is an up-and-coming digital currency full-node used in the cryptosphere. The Masternode keeps a full copy of the entire blockchain in real-time. The Masternode can be accessed by any participants and stakeholders on the blockchain.
Some of the special functions of these nodes are enabling instant transactions, increasing the privacy of transactions, allows for easy participation in the governance of blockchain, etc.
Thus using Masternode will keep the Coin2Play team ready for future developments in the blockchain and gaming industry. Staying compliant with the master node implementation will help Coin2Play attract a number of big investors to the platform. That will increase trust among its users.
The Coin2Play team recently announced that its easy master node setup is available through the Gentarium platform.
