Foremost Startups of The Berkeley Blockchain Xcelerator Program
Although 17 premier startups have been selected, one of the most innovative one among all is Nugabase’s farming multiplayer online game that is Flowerpatch and it has already gained over 1,000 users. The developers have stated that in this game you are going to have a completely different experience of farming games as the users will have to gain ‘flower cards’ and can get real Cannabis as rewards.
There is another startup named Calypso which has been introduced to the program. This one is a platform for reverse auction which will help the users to create a marketplace in the loan market and it will allow lenders to easily bid on the loan proposals which have been prepared by the borrowers.
Few other startups are also there which have been included in Xcelerator. One is Anterra which helps create a special platform for non-fungible tokens that basically focuses on the engagement between different sports organizations, their fans and eSports platforms. Another one is Finoa which is a platform for digital asset custody and payments. Snowball Money is also among the selected startups which are for the creation of investment automation software.
