What is Wink cryptocurrency?

Wink logo Wink, previously known as TRONBet, is a blockchain-based gaming platform built on the TRON network. Its native token, WIN, is used to place bets and make transactions within the platform – one of the most important sources of demand for the coin.

The smart contracts that power each of the games offered by Wink can be viewed by users, which increases the transparency and credibility of its entertainment alternatives.

Wink aims to be a project that benefits every party involved, including its developers, players (community) and investors. This is accomplished by giving WIN holders governance rights, while also extending gameplay discounts to players who have also invested in WIN, along with other perks.

According to the project’s whitepaper, the maximum supply of WIN will be 999 billion, while data from CoinMarketCap indicates that the current (25 April) circulating supply stands at 961.74 billion, around 96% of the total.

Among the most popular games offered by Wink are Dice, Moon, Ring and Duel, together with other more casino-like options, including slot machines and table games like blackjack and poker.

As for the token’s distribution, the platform was built through a Binance Launchpad sale of 5% of the token’s supply.

Increased adoption of decentralised online gaming: Usage volumes of online gaming platforms surged during the pandemic as gamers searched for alternatives during lockdowns, according to Statista.

Wink is a decentralised gaming platform that’s seeking to make its way in this growing industry. The adoption of decentralised platforms like Wink by gamers due to its offering (earn-to-play, staking, HODLing) might push the price of this crypto token.

Securing partnerships with game developers: WIN has developed a TRON-based layer-2 decentralised app on which games can run.

Bearish Wink coin outlook: analyst view

Commenting on Wink’s performance and prospects, Capital.com’s market analyst, Mikhail Karkhalev, takes a bearish stance.

“The Wink project could potentially be interesting, as the gambling industry is a very lucrative business, and blockchain-based gambling, which prevents casino owners from cheating their customers, could revolutionise the industry”, said Karkhalev.

“However, The Wink project is based on the Tron blockchain, and trust in Justin Sun's brainchild is very low in the industry. This is probably the reason why the project was renamed from TRONbet to Wink.

“The only reasonable explanation for investing in this project might come from the desire to earn some free small capital on yet another gambling project. I could be wrong, but a Tron blockchain-based gambling project should be considered with caution. After all, the project doesn't show outstanding results. It just works and collects money.”
