Q&A from KuCoin
Rastislav: Hello community! Glad to be here!
David: Nice to meet you guys. We are really happy to be part of the KuCoin community and exchange as well.
Q: Please briefly introduce your project. I am certain our community will be very interested in learning about IOI.
Rastislav: Yeah, let's go.
The first of many games is called Trade Race Manager. It's a collectible NFT trading game, Play2earn together with NFT, creates multiple ways of income.
Gameplay is based on real crypto market data. Virtual crypto is used as a fuel for all cars. Racers’ position in the race depends on crypto performance in real-time he chose as a fuel for the car.
IOI wallet is also a working product closely connected with the TRM platform. Users can use the same login credentials to get into the wallet. It‘s a safe storage for NFTs and cryptocurrencies with unique access to trading pools.

We are also working, if maybe a little bit expressive - Game of the year 2021 in the whole crypto industry CyberTrade and open marketplace for all of our assets with top influencers from Central Europe and popstars.
David: CyberTrade is coming.
Rastislav: Open marketplace as well.
Q: Please let us know about your background and your role in the project. Also, introduce the rest of the core team members.
Rastislav: I'm the CEO and co-founder (founder) of the IOI Corporation. I am an enthusiastic professional looking for a challenge and inspiration for my growth. I am eager for the new challenges in the new emerging financial services of fintech and blockchain with a unique passion for the gaming industry.
The core of the team are professionals from different business industries like finance, marketing, design, etc., and our common characteristic is that we are all crypto enthusiasts with many years of experience in corporate banking and management. Now is the time to build a strong brand for gaming and marketplace in the crypto industry $IOI.
David: I come from a brand-building, stocks, and FX trading background. Since I have discovered crypto, I have been fully taken over the idea of decentralized finance and monetary power that is redistributed back to the people. We all know crypto and blockchain technology is the way for all future digital projects on top of NFT and real digital ownership. IOI gave me the tools to really build something great with the best team in the crypto space.
Q: What are IOI Token utilities?
David:
$IOI Token Utilities:

⁃ Monthly BUYBACKs
⁃ Huge In-game rewards

Rastislav: We are now working hard for the HODL program for any market condition. We want to build a game and token ecosystem for any market condition. That's why we support the community with monthly revenue buybacks. We already bought 450k $ from the market and are now working on another buyback.
Key token utilities:
⁃ Purchase NFTs with $IOI Tokens in the marketplace with trading fees
⁃ Monthly BUYBACKs
⁃ Huge In-game rewards
⁃ On-chain Staking
⁃ NFT drops for holders in game or in personal on-chain wallets as MetaMask, Trust Wallet
Our buyback program highlights that IOI is different from 99.9% of crypto projects. We have revenue, and we use it to support our community. This also shows our team's firm belief in our native token’s prospects and shows company success will reflect in token's success.
Q: What is the new Trade Race Manager game plan about?
Rastislav: This is part of the new GAME PLAN introduction. All about NFTs, guaranteed prize pools for holders, no bets, and up to 13,000% APY.
We are going to break the industry.
50% of the total NFT supply burned, making our NFTs more unique.
And now about details:
The new game plan will be rewardful for NFT holders for whom we are preparing races every 10 minutes where you can win IOI tokens for your trading skills and just for holding NFTs. That’s why we also prepared special NFT bundles of our partners.
Our new update will be free to play. You can join a race with a free non-NFT car and enter a race. But if you hold NFTs, you can get multiple rewards of up to 600%. The main idea is to build a profitable ecosystem, free to play with education about trading and NFTs to give access to many scholars to start learning about crypto and earn $IOI tokens to get free scholarships or jobs which they will love.
David:
Rastislav: The main target is to sell NFTs, use revenue as a buyback for $IOI tokens from the market, and as a prize pool in games for players to create a perfect ecosystem with the potential to attract millions of traders and gamers.
IOI is where trading meets gaming, the two most successful sectors in crypto.
Q: What are the reasons to hold IOI?
David: Not just $IOI, but our NFTs are getting better every month. We try to push the boundaries with each update. We are making revenue from day one even without listed tokens, and now we are focusing on beating the bear market with high-quality products to really show the longevity of the IOI Team.
We have a really strong team with in-house development, 3D designers, Unity developers, a marketing team, gamers, and we are growing every day.
Backed up by the biggest VC in crypto and with own capital for the next 10+ years of development.
You can find all the active ads on YouTube, Facebook, Google, and others. We work on doing things differently, which you will see in the upcoming days. That's what we are really looking forward to giving back to our community and supporters that have been with us from the beginning.
Rastislav: 95% of these NFT projects will be dust in 12-24 months. Just collectibles, without real use cases and with capital for a few months. This is what will make the difference between IOI and others.
Q: Are there any events or competitions coming up with IOI Token?
David: We got something prepared. Starting the 1st of August. Keep an eye on our social media (https://twitter.com/IOI_game). More details really soon.
Q: What is the special NFT Bundles program about?
Rastislav: NFT Bundles is a special program where you can get a special unique NFT avatar and car of one of our partners. Getting the bundle is a key to have staking and reward bonuses while playing the game. You can increase your daily income by 8,600% APY.
11/15 days of growth

Maybe the next one will be a KuCoin car and avatar?
David: We started with Polygon, which had great success in the Polygon community.
Q: Why should I have a premium membership?
David: Having a premium membership gives you power and all possibilities of benefits of the NFTs and game plan. You can benefit more from the game and get the rewards. We have a special offer for 1-year membership where you get an NFT avatar, NFT car, and a 30% discount on premium membership. All this for 420 IOI. The normal price without the offer is 1,300 IOI.
All users who will own premium membership will be eligible for our competition in August.
Rastislav: Membership in a team represents membership in a trading group - you will get all of the advice from your teams, managers, and owners. Daily tips for your race, so you will have a better chance to win as well. It's part of the in-game community we are building.

Q: What's special in IOI?
Rastislav: Team. We believe that it is important to build a strong team with the same vision to achieve a target. We have the ambition to build new gaming and trading experience and build a million-dollar revenue platform that will affect the $IOI token ecosystem.
Q: What is the IOI Army? What is the classification to be part of the IOI Army? Is there any ambassador program regarding the IOI Army?
David: The IOI Army is our special holder program for the whole community! We also have #RichArmy with Nr.1 NFT affiliate program. We will lend you MrRich avatar, which has 20% cashback from your affiliate NFT purchase turnover.
Become part of RichArmy program: https://t.me/RichArmyIOI
Q: As I see, the IOI project is mainly focusing on NFT-based tokens. Now can you tell me which types of NFT are created in IOI?
Rastislav: Trade Race Manager is a collectible trading game, but the whole $IOI company is focused on much more than NFTs but overall trading and gaming experience. Currently, we have in the game these NFTs:
CARS - staking rewards and enter to races
TEAMS - profit share out of each membership
AVATARS - affiliate shares out of the invitation, NFT sale, APY staking
TRACKS - share from each game played on your track
Q: Many investors are seriously interested in the world of cryptocurrencies and want to join projects. What is the greatest potential that IOI has to gain the trust of investors?
Rastislav: I would suggest you check our social media profiles (https://twitter.com/IOI_game), and if you do it, you will see how serious and big a team we are. Top-quality games, designs, and production. And soon many new videos and posts from our offices as well. Currently, we have offices in 4 countries, and we will soon open one in Dubai as well to reach our ambition.
Q: Too many projects promise magic but never release any working product or prove any revenue within a short/long time of release. Is your project also like this? If not, can you tell us what makes your project different from other projects?
Rastislav: More than agree. Many projects, especially DeFi and NFTs, will be dust in 12 months.
What's special in IOI? We built a project before we came on the market. We don't promise a game or ecosystem. We build it and show it.
Here is our corporation website: https://ioi-corporation.com, which will be updated in the coming days, but you can see our roadmap and plan for this year. AND AGAIN - WE DON'T PROMISE, WE DELIVER.
Q: What's your grand vision for $IOI? How do you see it evolve with further tech advancements in the next 5 years?
David: IOI is at the start of its journey. We love our work and really push hard every day to make products people love but are also different and can make you a bank if you know how to work with them.
As we mentioned, crypto and DeFi are, for us, the future of digital ownership. We have many projects ready that will help develop a really wide ecosystem with various functions, and IOI Token will tie them all together, of course with benefits for holders and supporters!
We are working hard on our crypto trading platform IOI holders will benefit massively from.
We think one step ahead, and we would like to prove it to all the crypto enthusiasts this year. 2021 is going to the moon.
Q: What are your top priorities in 2021? Could you share some plans for the upcoming year? Which part of the project are you most focused on right now?
Rastislav: Currently, we are working on the final game plan change and launching an iOS application for TRM that will be live before August.
But we now have 3 development teams working hard on the marketplace, CyberTrade and Zaia.
We will deliver a marketplace at the end of summer and before Q4 on a Christmas CyberTrade - it will be massive.
Our final goal for 2021 is cooperation on social trading platforms with top traders in Central Europe, where all our holders will get special rewards.
Q: Is IOI a global project? Is there a plan to cover Korean, European and African communities? Will you launch multiple language lines for non-native English speakers?
David: We are global, and we are also working on getting a lot closer to all our users and building communities around the world.
Our priority right now is the community and spreading the IOI vision everywhere we go.
I think you can see from our development speed. We are working hard and moving fast.
IOI in the next 6 months will be a totally different, much better ecosystem with everything we got in store for you.
Q: Can you please describe your $IOI token staking system? Can I stake your token now? What's the process?
Rastislav: Currently, you can farm IOI on Polygon chain:
Try it! Farm $IOI tokens on a farm with liquidity up to 425% APY!
You can also find $IOI / $USDC on QuickswapDEX
#IOIArmy to the MOON
#RichArmy #NFT
or on Ethereum: https://ioi.tokensfarm.com
Q: Can we only earn IOI by playing games on the IOI platform, or is there a chance of earning NFTs by playing?
David: You can earn $IOI by playing free games every 2 minutes.
But with the NEW GAME PLAN, there are going to be regular NFT drops, lucky drops, NFT burns to push the value and best racers and performance NFTs for users.
Rastislav: We are working now on an on-chain staking program and NFT drops with high quality of in-game assets for the whole of our ecosystem. Staking program working now through NFTs. Purchase NFTs via Polygon or $IOI tokens and get daily stakes as a reward. On-chain staking in progress.

Q: Why choose a buyback mechanism as one of your long-run financial strategies? Where does the buyback token allocation go?
David: We are proud of the BUYBACK program because we let our community choose what we should do with the buyback and really put the governance model to action.
More rewards, NFT drops, burning, competitions, and much more.
The IOI Army chooses, power the holders.
Rastislav:
Q: Where can I find the game?
David: http://www.traderacemanager.com
Q: Ambassadors play a very important role in every project. Do you have an ambassador program? If yes, how can I be one?
Rastislav: We are working on an ambassador and affiliate program. For more information, join here: https://t.me/RichArmyIOI
Q: Is buying TRACKS the only way to earn money passively in Trade Race Manager? Isn’t there any other way to earn money passively?
David: You can stake your NFTs with fixed APYs and make your community use your affiliate link to earn passively without the need of playing.
Manage your people and get rewarded with Nr. 1 Affiliate program RichArmy.
Q: This year is Defi Season. Each token is announcing we are DeFi now and pumping its token price. Also, many projects maligned the name of DeFi, like Sushi, and people’s faith decreased. How will you prove IOI to new heights and regain people's faith?
Rastislav: We love to give positive surprises to our community!
We have bought back $450k worth of tokens, funded by company revenue. Exceeding our target of $250k buyback.
Our buyback program highlights that IOI is different from 99.9% of crypto projects. We have revenue, and we use it to support our community. This also shows our team's firm belief in our native token’s prospects and shows company success will reflect in token's success.
We will do many positive surprises for our community, and the biggest one will be the 1st of August. Stay tuned.
Q: Is there anything else you would like to share or you want us to know?
