Goalcoin is the first cryptocurrency created specifically for worldwide sporting events, in this case, Soccer and the much awaited World Cup 2014 in Brazil. We aim to bring awareness and adoption of Bitcoin and Goalcoin into the world of sports, focusing especially on the soccer industry that generates US$18 Billion a year with an 18% annual growth.
We believe that the success of a digital currency is determined by two important factors, adoption by real-world users and infrastructure to use the currency. To achieve this, the Goalcoin team will carry out several marketing projects to increase adoption not only among users, but to also revolutionize the socioeconomic world of soccer through the implementation of Goalcoin as a payment method in commercial establishments linked to the sport. This will then allow users to spend Goalcoins for sports merchandise and services.
Furthermore, we also understand the importance of spreading adoption to the mainstream consumers beyond merely Bitcoin users. Just like how Dogecoin managed to reach out to a new market of users from 4chan/Reddit, who did not first know about Bitcoin, Goalcoin hopes to achieve the same with Soccer lovers all over the world as they unite to enjoy the World’s favourite sport! To do so, we aim to conduct a physical distribution of Goalcoins to the World’s population during major soccer events such as the Brazil World Cup 2014.
To provide a high quality service and bring stability, security, and confidence to Goalcoin as payment for sports merchandise.
Objectives:
Spread Goalcoin to the world’s population through various distribution methods, including a physical distribution at the Brazil World Cup 2014.
Encourage the growth of the soccer industry, through distribution of Goalcoin by mining and rewarding those who support the network, to use their Goalcoins to further improve the soccer economy.
Ensure that a high security is maintained within the Goalcoin network through continuous improvement and development.
Encourage the use of Goalcoin by developing innovative services and through a marketing strategy that involves advertising, promoting, and constantly searching for new merchants to accept it as payment.
