Fan Duel Toronto Raptors

$RAPS Coin

You guys have helped Raptors Republic become one of the most vibrant Raptors fan communities on the planet, but it is mostly been us screaming at you from across the internet void.. until now. With the launch of $RAPS we are setting in motion a new model that gives you ownership in our community, enables participation at a much deeper level, and earns you rewards for your contribution to the conversation.

FAQ

Have questions? Hopefully they are answered below but if not, join the discord and ask anything in the #help channel.

Is this a cryptocurrency?

Yes it is! $RAPS is powered by Rally which runs on a sidechain to the Ethereum mainnet. This makes it possible to swap $RAPS for Rally tokens ($RLY), the Rally Network’s default ERC-20 token, and then convert that into any other cryptocurrency (like $ETH) or standard fiat currency (CAD).

Does the price of $RAPS fluctuate?

Yes. $RAPS fluctuates based on the supply and demand of the coin, just like any other real world or digital asset. Hodl. Always Hodl.

Does Raptors Republic get any coins?

Yes. As the creator, we will be granted an allocation to do with as we choose. There is a period of time that it will take us to vest that allotment, but once we have them, we will be using them to reward both you and everyone at RR for helping to making this community even more vibrant.

Is this a pump and dump?

No, absolutely not. It is not in our best interests to sell our stash for many reasons, but namely, we would never do you folks dirty like that. We have been building Raptors Republic for over 14 years, and money is not reason enough to throw all of that away. We see this as a way for us all to benefit from the conversation that we engage in together on a daily basis.
