Innovative price prediction game provider teams up with leading cryptocurrency casino gaming platform to bring quick-fire, Bitcoin-based betting to the masses
Â
Bitblox, the pioneering online software provider behind an innovative new wave of Bitcoin-based titles, has partnered with popular crypto casino and sports betting platform, Betcoin.ag, to bring its innovative price prediction games to a wide new audience.
Known for its signature releases Up or Down? and Up or Down? Turbo â which challenge players to guess whether the price of Bitcoin will rise or fall in a 60 or 20-second window respectively â Bitblox provides a range of products that are both games of skill and games of chance, giving them a unique cross-market appeal thatâs proven popular with sports bettors and casino players alike.
Boasting dynamic fixed odds that are tied to the real-time price of Bitcoin, Bitbloxâs games arenât dictated by RNG and therefore offer players a genuine chance of using their understanding of the crypto markets to turn a long-term profit. That said, theyâre also highly accessible and require no prior knowledge of Bitcoin, meaning even crypto novices can enjoy their quick-fire betting rounds.
Of course, with Betcoin.ag being one of the industryâs premier cryptocurrency-based online betting platforms, Up or Down? has already established itself as a staple part of the providerâs line-up and Bitblox will continue sharing titles with the site as and when they launch in 2024 and beyond.
As such, both parties are optimistic that the partnership will continue to be a fruitful one going forward â and Betcoin.ag players will also undoubtedly be looking forward to trying exciting upcoming releases such as 3 in a Row and BitSlap when they debut on the platform later this year.
Â
Brandt Page, Chief Executive Officer at Bitblox, said: âWeâre very happy to have partnered with BetCoin and have already witnessed a tremendous response to Up or Down? from their players. Over the coming months, weâre looking forward to releasing many more innovative new titles on their platform and hope this will continue to foster interest in the world of crypto-based betting.â
Jessica White, Public Relations Director at Betcoin.ag, said: âWith Betcoin being one of the industryâs most popular crypto casino and sports betting sites, we were always going to be a good home for Bitblox content. We really love what the provider is doing with its crypto price prediction games and having seen Up or Down? perform so well, weâre already looking forward to their next release.â

VIRGIN BET AND PRESENTING STAR NATALIE PIKE BRING âWOMENâS DAYâ TO DONCASTER RACECOURSE
Â
Virgin Bet is excited to announce the second iteration of its âWomenâs Dayâ event, which will take place at the Virgin Bet November Handicap on Saturday, 9th November, at Doncaster Racecourse.
Â
The day will serve as a platform to celebrate women in racing, making it the latest effort in Virgin Betâs long line of social impact initiatives to help create a more inclusive environment.
 Building on the success of the inaugural Womenâs Day at Ayr Racecourse last season, this celebration aims to further highlight and honour the invaluable contributions of women in racing.
The event at Doncaster Racecourse is open to everyone, embodying Virgin Betâs brand mission, âA Good Betâ. This campaign emphasises the brandâs dedication to breaking down pre-existing barriers within sports and culture at large.
As part of the dayâs proceedings, in addition to enjoying Doncasterâs spectacular race offerings, attendees can attend two panels led by presenter Natalie Pike, with the first starting at 10:45 am in the Exhibition Hall. Combining celebration with insight, these discussions will encourage reflection and spark conversation, connecting racing fans with legendary women transforming horse racing while also addressing diversity in the sport.
Panellists will include:
Â
Panel 1: Women of Horse Racing
- Sophie Green (Trainee Clerk of the Course, Southwell Racecourse)
- Charlotte Russel (General Manager, Go Racing In Yorkshire)
- Rachel Harwood (Executive Director, Doncaster Racecourse)
Â
Panel 2: Creative Inclusivity in Racing
- Dawn Goodfellow (CEO, Racing Welfare)
- Emma Kay (Founder, WalkSafe)
Â
Additionally, as part of Virgin Betâs raceday sponsorship, a donation will be made to Racing Welfare. Their work ensures the well-being and success of British horseracingâs workforce. Virgin Betâs support for Racing Welfare highlights the importance of giving back to the community that keeps the industry running.
The Virgin Bet November Handicap marks the beginning of Virgin Betâs continued partnership with Arena Racing Company (ARC) for a series of key meetings throughout the 2024/25 season. This partnership extends to fellow LiveScore Group brand LiveScore Bet.
Virgin Betâs Personal Safety Partner, WalkSafe, will also be integrated into the race day. Founded in 2020, WalkSafe was developed to give the public as much information about their surroundings as possible. The app, WalkSafe+, enables users to plan the safest route home, along with a host of additional features to help ensure a safer experience for all.
Racegoers will be able to learn more about the innovative and free-to-download app over the course of the raceday, and get the chance to speak with its founder, Emma Kay, who strives every day to educate and highlight the importance of safety in all walks of life. Emma will also feature on one of the panels, sharing her insights and experiences as part of the discussions.
This second iteration of Womenâs Day, now making its debut at Doncaster, serves as a potential alternative to traditional Ladiesâ Day. Virgin Bet, in partnership with Doncaster Racecourse, is proud to continue fostering a celebratory environment, reminding everyone that racing truly welcomes all.
Â
Dominic Vye, Marketing Director, Virgin Bet, said:
âHorse racing owes much of its success to the incredible women who contribute so much behind the scenes, and itâs time we celebrate their achievements. At Virgin Bet, as part of our âA Good Betâ brand campaign, we want to make sport more accessible and highlight brilliance, no matter who the subject is, and this initiative is doing exactly that.â
Â
Presenter and âWomenâs Day Sponsored by Virgin Betâ collaborator, Natalie Pike, added:
âItâs been amazing to return and once again be part of this fantastic initiative with the teams at Virgin Bet and Doncaster Racecourse. I hope this yearâs event will continue to inspire and uplift the incredible women in horse racing. Creating an inclusive and safe environment for everyone in the sport is so important, and Iâm proud to help bring attention to that.â
Rachel Harwood, Executive Director of Doncaster Racecourse, continued:
âWe are proud to celebrate Womenâs Day here at Doncaster Racecourse. This initiative shines a spotlight on the essential role women play in our sport. Itâs also a fantastic opportunity to remind everyone that racing is for everyone, and we hope all racegoers feel that sense of inclusivity and belonging.â
âWeâre also delighted to have Virgin Betâs Personal Safety Partner WalkSafe integrated as part of their sponsorships with us. The experience and safety for all spectators at our racecourses is a priority, so itâs fantastic to see this as part of Virgin Betâs âA Good Betâ initiatives, which aims to create a more inclusive and welcoming environment for all.â
