Zilliqa Group Partners with Racing League
Zilliqa Group, a leading provider of Web3 solutions and blockchain infrastructure best known for the development of the Zilliqa blockchain – a high-performance, high-security and low-fee layer-1 protocol, announced a partnership with Racing League, the premier team-based horse racing competition in the UK.
The partnership will centre on the development of an innovative and interactive Web3 fan engagement programme set to launch later this year. The programme will combine the physical aspects of horse racing with all-new virtual concepts, underpinned by Zilliqa blockchain technology. This strategic initiative is being built to bolster the global presence of Racing League and bring the revolutionary competition to an engaged international audience.
The partnership will represent the best of sporting history and new-era technology, using Web3 technologies to re-imagine fan engagement in horse racing, a sport renowned for its rich traditions and passionate global fan base. This venture is fundamental to Racing League’s ongoing strategy to reinvigorate horse racing for the next generation of fans, which has been at the forefront of innovation in the sport, by introducing a team-based competition format that has drawn participation from the world’s leading jockeys and trainers.
The programme will offer opportunities for fans to participate in owning their favourite horses, vote on important team and league decisions, compete in prediction games with tangible rewards – both physical and digital – and enjoy exclusive discounts on tickets and merchandise. These initiatives aim to deepen the bond between fans and the sport, transforming passive spectators into active participants.
The platform will also introduce a series of engaging and immersive experiences designed to bring fans closer to the thrilling world of horse racing. From behind-the-scenes access to live racing events, to direct interactions with renowned jockeys and trainers, the partnership is set to redefine the fan experience by offering unparalleled engagement opportunities in the horse racing industry.
The partnership with Racing League represents Zilliqa Group’s continued focus on the multi-billion-dollar loyalty sector across sports, esports, luxury and lifestyle. It follows the recent launch of The Pride, a bespoke fan engagement programme for European esports team Mad Lions. Utilising its market-leading blockchain technology, Zilliqa is powering a next-frontier fan engagement model that leverages the transformative potential of Web3 technologies.
Zilliqa Group CEO Matt Dyer said: “This partnership with Racing League marks a significant milestone in Zilliqa Group’s strategic expansion into the loyalty sector. As we deploy our cutting-edge technology and innovation, we are fully committed to re-imagining and levelling up the loyalty industry with Web3 technologies. The partnership offers a unique opportunity to seamlessly intertwine technology with tradition, to help redefine horse racing – in both the physical and digital realms – for fans of today and tomorrow. The journey that lies ahead is truly exciting and we look forward to forging a new path in this space together with Racing League.”
Ben Spivack, COO & Head of Partnerships at Racing League, said: “At Racing League, we recognise the importance of engaging with fans in new and innovative ways. Our partnership with Zilliqa, a leader in blockchain technology, provides us with an opportunity to heighten fan engagement, bringing an interactive dimension to our sport that aligns with the digital age.”

GoldenRace launches V5 mobile solution with unified app and WebGL branding
GoldenRace has launched its next-generation V5 mobile solution, the supplier announced on 1 July 2026 in Malta. The company positions the release as a mobile delivery upgrade for its virtual sports and betting content, aimed at maintaining performance under high player traffic.
According to GoldenRace, V5 consolidates its previous architecture into a single application and “drastically reduces load sizes by 80–90%.” The company also said the platform is built “completely from the ground up” with a unified UI/UX designed to remain responsive across different network conditions.
On product features, GoldenRace said V5 introduces “advanced WebGL capabilities” to support high-fidelity graphics and operator-controlled branding. It also adds native gamification tools across games, including custom Tournaments, Leaderboards and Free Bets.
The company also outlined three mobile upgrades intended to reduce friction in the betting flow: a Lobby with modular layouts and a one-click toggle between scheduled and instant views; a next-generation Betslip with richer visual components and “smart organisation”; and dynamic Leaderboards with configurable funding and custom point logic.
GoldenRace said operators can switch to V5 by “changing a single line of code,” and added that a demo is available for operators evaluating the new mobile solution.

API
St8 adds game round replays to its single API platform
Replay tool builds on St8’s graphical game round details and launches first with nine casino game studios.
St8 has launched game round replays, adding visual playback of completed casino game rounds to its existing single API platform. The company said the feature is designed to help operators verify outcomes faster and resolve player queries more efficiently.
The new capability builds on St8’s graphical game round details, which it said is already used by operators. With replays, support and operations teams can access a round’s visual playback to investigate gameplay disputes and respond to players with more transparency.
St8 also positioned the feature as a player engagement tool, with operators able to surface notable moments such as big wins and bonus rounds for promotional use.
Game round replays will initially support titles from AvatarUX, BGaming, Endorphina, Hacksaw, Peter & Sons, Pragmatic Play, Scatter Kings, Shady Lady, and Tequity Originals, with more providers to be added. St8 said the feature is delivered through its existing single API integration and requires no additional development work, and is intended to scale across multiple brands and regulated markets.
David Fall, Business Development Manager at St8, said: “Operators are under increasing pressure to deliver exceptional customer support while keeping operational costs under control. Our graphical game round details have become a trusted and widely used tool for operators, giving support teams quick access to the information they need to resolve player queries efficiently. Game round replays complement this capability by providing a visual playback of each round, helping teams resolve cases even faster and with complete confidence.
“Beyond operational efficiency, the feature also opens up new opportunities for engagement. Operators can showcase exciting gameplay moments, celebrate big wins and create richer player experiences – all through the same integration. Because game round replays are delivered through our existing single API, partners can access this functionality immediately while continuing to benefit from the simplicity and scalability that sit at the heart of the St8 platform.”
