Today, looking for news in the magazine Rolling Stones I found a quite interesting and is that just read the name of Atari brought me automatic memories of my childhood playing Pacman, Atari is a brand that in my opinion stayed in the forgetfulness but that was a pioneer in the development of the Videojuegos, without more than adding I proceed to summarize the information that I got on Atari and the new thing that they bring.

Everything seems to indicate that cryptocurrencies may be the way of salvation for certain companies that although we all know by their trade name are unprofitable or close to bankruptcy, such is the case of Kodak which launched its KodakCoin, this time I play the turn to Atari who on February 8 announced the creation of Atari Coin. According to Bloomberg Atari's shares increased more than 60% since he gave more details of his Token release. The company has plans to produce its own cryptocurrency called 'Atari Coin', although it is not yet clear how they will be used. For this to happen, Atari is forging an alliance with an anonymous company building a digital entertainment platform based on blockchain.

In the official statement issued by Atari the president and general manager of Atari, Frederic Chesnais said:

"Blockchain technology is poised to take a very important place in our environment and to transform, if not revolutionize, the current economic ecosystem, especially in the areas of the video game industry and online transactions. Given our technological strengths with the development studios, and the global reputation of the Atari brand, we have the opportunity to position ourselves attractively in this sector. Our objective is to take strategic positions with a limited cash risk, in order to optimize the assets and the Atari brand"

It is still too early to predict the future of this cryptocurrency taking into account that they have not given more detail on how it works, at the moment it only seems a commercial strategy to get the company out of oblivion and perhaps a bad economic situation. Let's wait to see the development of events.
