Duelbits has launched Tap Trading, a new chart-based casino game that lets players wager on short-term movement in Solana (SOL) price data. The company said the game is now available globally on the DuelBits platform.

Tap Trading shows a continuously updating chart tracking SOL’s live price. Players wager on whether the price will move up or down over 10-second intervals, with the company stating successful predictions can pay “up to 40x” the original stake.

Duelbits positions Tap Trading as distinct from crash games and prediction markets, framing it as a real-time, rapid-cycle format built around market data rather than simulated outcomes. The operator also said the game is optimised for mobile and supports multiple currencies.

To support the launch, Duelbits said it is rolling out an acquisition and awareness campaign aimed at crypto-native audiences, including partnerships with creators and KOLs, social media activations, community initiatives and streamer collaborations.

Jasper Hoekert, Chief Marketing Officer at Duelbits, said: “Tap Trading represents a significant step forward in how players interact with market based gaming experiences.

“With Tap Trading we created a product that feels familiar to crypto traders while remaining accessible and entertaining for casino players. We’re continuing to push the boundaries of what’s possible in crypto gaming, reinforcing Duelbits’ position as a leader in product innovation and delivering unique experiences that players won’t find anywhere else.”

Wazdan has launched 9 Balls, a football-themed slot that introduces a new Penalty Kick feature and includes a Champion Jackpot with a top prize of up to 2,500x.

In the base game, a Penalty Kick label can land on a random reel and stay in place for up to 15 spins. When the countdown reaches zero, any symbol on the designated reel pays out its corresponding prize.

The game also uses Wazdan’s Hold the Jackpot mechanic, triggered by landing three Bonus symbols across the three middle reels. The bonus round runs on nine reels with three respins, and newly landed symbols remain locked in place.

Michal Imiolek, Chief Executive Officer at Wazdan, said: “9 Balls combines the excitement of football-inspired action with engaging bonus mechanics designed to keep anticipation high throughout gameplay.

“The new Penalty Kick feature introduces a fresh layer of suspense to every spin, while the Hold the Jackpot round and customisable gameplay options ensure the title delivers broad appeal for players and operators alike.”

Tequity has announced the launch of Exclusives, a new product vertical designed to help operators create and roll out original casino games built from scratch.

According to the company, Exclusives provides an end-to-end development pipeline covering concept development and math modelling through to art production, frontend work, QA, integration and distribution, delivered via Tequity’s remote gaming server (RGS) platform.

The announcement follows Tequity’s recent reveal of its Crypto Trading Games series, which expanded the supplier’s Originals portfolio.

Dominic Sawyer, VP of growth at Tequity, said: “In today’s highly competitive market, differentiation is the key to capturing player loyalty. With the launch of Exclusives, we are giving operators an end-to-end solution to bring their unique visions to life.

“By leveraging our robust RGS platform and industry expertise, our partners can now create bespoke, brand-aligned games from scratch with a significantly faster time-to-market. We handle the technical heavy lifting, allowing operators to focus on what matters most: engaging their audience.”
