According to the white paper, the squid game is on sale presale last October 20, and sold out in just 1 second.
In white paper the squid game is said to be a crypto currency “play to earn“. Crypto squid game voters can play the game online online inspired by the ‘Squid Game’ series. If you want to play a fee of 10% is charged to the developer, and the rest will be invested as a prize
“The more people who play, the more prizes you will get. Most importantly, there are no consequences to death. Your experience will only reflect the joy of winning the prize and the sadness of losing money if you fail the game,” wrote white paper squid game, as reported by Business Insider, Friday (29/10).
However, many have highlighted the crypto squid game as a scam (scam). It can be seen from when investing capital into it, but there is no evidence that it can be withdrawn.
CNBC International last Thursday reported that Coin Market Cap has issued a warning that it has received multiple reports of users not being able to sell these tokens on Pancake Swap, or the popular decentralized exchange.
The reason this currency cannot be sold is still not very clear. But the indications are that this coin has anti-dumping technology that prevents people from selling their coins if certain conditions cannot be met.
CNBC International has tried to contact the information contract listed on Squid’s website, asking if the developer is aware of the issue. But so far have not received a response.
