Wincast
305 Mcguinness Blvd Apt 3g, Brooklyn, NY, 11222, United States
Overview
Wincast has built an interactive platform that enables users to create nonfungible tokens (NFTs) from key moments during live sporting events and auction or trade them in near real time. The product allows fans to begin bidding on an NFT as a play unfolds (for example, once a batter steps up to the plate) and supports trading after creation. Wincast also provides broadcasters with new ad-delivery and audience-engagement tools tied to live NFT creation. The company says its front- and back-end monetization solutions increase live fan engagement, insights and spend while improving the spectator experience. Wincast was founded in 2021 and is led by CEO Noah Diskin Kline. Financially, the company recently closed a $5 million seed round and has raised $7.8 million to date. Wincast is an interactive NFT platform that lets fans bid for, own, trade, and sell NFTs capturing live sports moments. Founded in 2021, the product combines live streaming of events with real-time bidding so users can win minted NFTs of specific moments as they occur. The platform includes a proprietary dynamic minting engine that captures linear sports feeds, edits video to collectible-length clips, and delivers NFTs to users' wallets automatically. The first phase emphasizes a live streaming infrastructure to enable immersive, interactive bidding. Wincast is preparing for an official launch in July 2022 and has partnered with Empire Boxing Enterprises for upcoming PPV fights. Having operated in stealth, the team will use the funds to progress platform development and acquire new users across digital channels.
