Introduction:
This will be a 8 player invitational tournament hosted by myself and whatever helpers I can rally. Players will be invited based on the wishes of the mining contributors. The prize pool will be crowd funded through cryptocurrency mining. This works by donating some of your computers processing power. Monero coins are generated and these can then be converted to a real money prize for the tournament winners.
The tournament will be scheduled and official invitations will be sent out once the tournament is funded! The funding goal will be 0.3 Monero coin (currently $100 USD value). The tournament may take a month to fund, but this greatly depends on the amount of mining power donated by the community.
The tournament will be streamed and casted on www.twitch.tv. If anyone needs to reach me I am on clan [SK] discord.

About me:
I've played broodwar most of my life. I've followed the foreign starcraft scene through much of that time, (especially since remastered). I'm also a cryptocurrency enthusiast. It would bring me joy if this project could support the foreign starcraft scene. I was previously a B team coach for clan [SK] in PATL.
The CryptoCup Format:
-This will be a 8 player single elimination tournament.
-Players will be chosen by the miners.
-The map pool will be a selected from ladder maps being played when the tournament is held.
-First round will be Bo3, semifinals and finals will be Bo5.

Mined Monero will be converted to USD using an exchange and paid out on Matcherino.
Winner of the tournament takes 100% of prizepool.
(Being paid in Monero is also an option if desired!)
Why Monero (also called XMR):
With proper computer hardware, configuration, and time there are more profitable mining methods, however, Monero is ideal because it can be simply CPU mined and any computer can do it! Inclusion is a major goal, since this is a crowd funded project.

This link will begin using some of your CPU's processing power to mine Monero.

Seeing this means your miner is working! H/S is how fast you're mining (Hashes/second). The slider controls CPU resources used. Cpu threads (cores) used can also be adjusted.
How to suggest a player to be invited?

Troubleshooting:
Some anti-virus software may reject this link. Cryptocurrency is sometimes mined without the users consent on a malicious website.
You could try running the link in incognito mode (google chrome).
Advanced mining for Power-users:
If you find yourself especially interested in mining cryptocurrency, there are more powerful and efficient methods of contributing. If you are interested in configuring a very powerful GPU mining software, I recommend XMR-Stak. This software is open source and reasonably easy to setup (see the guide).
