The Abyss ICO – a new platform that aims to deliver a next-level digital distribution system.
Over the years, the gaming industry has become one of the major players in the market. Its size has expanded tremendously and is expected to increase by 60-80% by year 2020. In 2017, the industry reached $100 Billion in revenue.
These numbers are somewhat expected given the fast development of this industry. One significant factor that made this happen was the changes in distribution. Unlike in the past decades, video games were distributed in a box. Meaning, when you want to get your hands on the latest release you have to order and wait for your cd/dvd to be delivered at your doorstep. But now, you can simply make a purchase online from retailers and publishers such as Amazon.com, Steam and PSN store, then, receive your game instantly on your PC or any game console.
Now here comes The Abyss, aiming to provide players and developers a next-level digital distribution platform with the use of the blockchain technology. In using their platform, all types of video games will be available for the members to access and through their motivational and referral system, both players and developers will earn an income.
Let’s take a closer look on what they offer and see how it will benefit its members.

The Team
The Abyss is being developed by the same team who created Destiny.Games – a popular video game developer based in Russia. The team has years of experience in game development and project launching and operation. With their expertise in this field, we can say that they really know what they're doing and has the innovation to expand the platform.
The Verdict
I commend the Abyss team for developing a platform to reduce the cost of product distributions in the gaming industry. This will give developers the enthusiasm to bring in new games as they will no longer be spending too much on ads. Another is giving both the players and developers the opportunity to earn more by simply using the platform.
These two major concepts, earning while saving, is what The Abyss offers in their innovative system to totally change the gaming world. This big leap will definitely give an added significant boost to the industry’s revenue. And having both in one platform would most likely bring interest to many especially to our gaming enthusiasts. The popularity it will gain will certainly be the biggest factor to expand their project and make it stable.
