- VCOIN is an Ethereum-based ERC-20 token that can be exchanged both on and off IMVU's platform.
- Users will be able to buy goods and services with the digital tokens on IMVU's platform, while earners will be able to convert tokens into cash if desired.
- “While most virtual platforms allow users to earn in-game credits, those credits cannot be converted into anything that holds value outside of that platform or game,” said John Burris, chief strategy officer.
- The token will be sold initially at a rate of 250 VCOIN for $1, or $0.004 per token.
- On Nov. 17, the SEC published a “no-action letter,” effectively granting IMVU permission to offer VCOIN to users, albeit with strict restrictions on how these tokens may be sold.
