Creators of blockchain game 'The Sandbox' TSB Gaming execute option for $2M investment

Animoca Brands, a global app developer leveraging popular brands, gamification, AI, blockchain, and mobile technology, today has updated the market that it was unable to issue via the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) owing to the concerns raised by ASX.

Due to this, Animoca Brands informed that its wholly-owned subsidiary TSB Gaming Ltd. has executed agreements between July and September 2019 to raise USD $2.01 million, consisting of 83% in cash and 17% in bitcoin and Tether cryptocurrency at the time of the transaction, through the issue of ‘SAND’ utility tokens and simple agreement for future equity (SAFE) convertible securities. SAND will be utilized in the upcoming blockchain version of The Sandbox user-generated content game platform.

The investment was led by Square Enix, B Cryptos, Mindfulness Capital, and True Global Ventures.

“The Sandbox is a pioneer in the space of blockchain gaming, NFTs, and true digital ownership, and we are thrilled to have Square Enix with us as a strategic investor, supporting our ambitious vision of building the Metaverse where Creators can make games on their LANDs and trade ASSETS on our marketplace in a totally decentralized manner.”
– Sebastien Borget, COO of Pixowl and of TSB Gaming

Investors

Square Enix develops, publishes, distributes and licenses Square Enix, Eidos and Taito branded entertainment content around the world. The Square Enix group of companies includes a global network of leading development studios and boasts a valuable portfolio of intellectual property.

“Like multiple generations, we grew up playing amazing games such as Space Invaders, Final Fantasy, and Arkanoid, and so it’s a special privilege and honor that the legendary game company Square Enix has invested in The Sandbox. Together with the investment from B Cryptos, we are now closer to bringing The Sandbox to the Japanese market.”
– Yat Siu, co-founder, and chairman of Animoca Brand

B Cryptos is Japan’s first FSA-licensed (Licensed Financial Institutions) investment fund that focuses on blockchain startups and encrypted digital assets. B Cryptos is partnered with B Dash Ventures, one of Japan’s top-performing venture capital firms; Liquid Group, an FSA-licensed Japanese cryptocurrency exchange with global service coverage; and ICON, a global interchain project aiming to create an environment for real-world use of blockchain technology.

“The Sandbox universe that Animoca Brands is creating is in line with how we see entertainment and new technologies coming together to create a new entertainment experience and expand the role and impact of entertainment in future society. In a narrower sense, we see The Sandbox as one of the catalysts that will shed new light on the underlying technologies (including blockchain) that make such innovative experiences possible. We look forward to supporting The Sandbox on its journey and have high expectations for where that journey leads.”
– Hiro Motoyoshi, CEO of B Cryptos
