Kronoverse to Forge New Paths in the esports Industry Through Partnership with ESL
Kronoverse Inc., today announced a partnership with the world’s largest esports company, ESL, to develop and scale Kronoverse’s upcoming CryptoFights game and the entire Kronoverse gaming platform.
“ESL knows what it takes to succeed in the ever-growing esports industry as the oldest and most successful esports company in the world,” says Adam Kling, CEO and founder of Kronoverse. “We’re confident our partnership with ESL will enable us to fully develop the Kronoverse platform. This includes everything from attracting more indie game developers to solving problems in competitive gaming such as cheating.”
ESL will serve as a strategic partner and facilitator in Kronoverse’s growth. Kronoverse was created by Kling when he recognized the power of the blockchain and how it can be used in gaming to solve problems in the gaming industry. Kronoverse seeks to elevate the esports industry through native cash tournaments, better game integrity, true item ownership, more game choices, and transparent network analytics.
As a gaming platform, Kronoverse will benefit greatly from ESL’s history of providing the best experiences for competitive players. ESL understands what it takes to put on the greatest competitions for esports athletes like hosting ESL One Cologne, the most successful CS:GO tournament in the world.
Kronoverse’s partnership with ESL opens up a new world of possibilities to forge new frontiers in the wild west of esports. This is possible thanks to ESL’s experience and dedication to competitive gaming for nearly two decades. As exemplified by building VR esports from the ground up, ESL has proven its ability to evolve with new technologies while consistently providing the best esports stages and competitions for gamers.
“We’re excited to move forward with ESL because we share the vision of creating opportunities for progression and participation in the esports industry,” said Kling of Kronoverse’s development partnership with ESL.

ReferOn adds crypto finance layer to automate affiliate payouts
ReferOn has launched a built-in crypto finance layer designed to automate affiliate payouts and centralise crypto payout workflows inside its platform. The company said the feature supports crypto payments through its licensed partners’ payment gateways and is available now.
ReferOn said the layer is intended to replace manual, fragmented finance processes with program funding, real-time visibility into funds, automated crypto payouts, and audit-ready transaction history with exports. The company is positioning the release at affiliate teams that manage high payout volumes and frequent reconciliation work.
The update introduces a dedicated finance page for each affiliate program, including program funding and balance visibility, integrated top-ups with deposit address management, and a transaction journal with filters, detail views, pagination, and CSV export. ReferOn also said the automated payout flow records conversion data (rate and amounts), syncs statuses, and creates transaction records instantly.
On controls, ReferOn said each automated payout requires explicit confirmations and 2FA before being triggered. The company added that the feature is built to support audit and compliance needs through traceable transaction logs and one-click CSV exports.
Vlad Bondarenko, Head of Product at ReferOn, commented: “In all honesty, manual crypto payments are a disaster waiting to happen. When teams are afraid of entering the wrong address, making a double payment, or organising ever-growing spreadsheets, the team environment turns conservative and reactive. Our new crypto finance layer eliminates this confusion by providing managers with a comprehensive, centralised hub that automates the manual via integrated payment partners. This feature isn’t about offering affiliates a fancy new payment method or automating for the sake of it, it’s about freeing you up to run a revamped financial operation.”

BC Engine
BC.GAME launches BC Engine, introducing continuous rewards model powered by $BC
Global crypto gaming platform BC.GAME has introduced BC Engine, a new rewards system designed to provide players with ongoing value from their gameplay, without minimum thresholds or tier requirements.
Inspired by crypto staking models, BC Engine transforms the platform’s native token, $BC, from a one-time incentive into a continuous rewards mechanism. Players still earn $BC through wagering as usual, but instead of being distributed as a standalone reward, the token is automatically allocated into BC Engine, where it contributes to ongoing earnings.
Rewards are distributed hourly in BCD, BC.GAME’s USD-pegged token, with each player’s payout determined by their $BC balance at the time of distribution. This structure creates a more consistent and transparent reward model, directly linking player activity to tangible returns.
The system also introduces a more sustainable approach by aligning reward funding with actual gaming performance, reducing reliance on traditional promotional spending.
Importantly, BC Engine is accessible to all players from day one, with no wagering thresholds or tier-based entry requirements, allowing users to begin earning rewards from their very first bet.
Alongside the launch, BC.GAME has rolled out additional enhancements to its rewards ecosystem, including a Welcome Shield protection feature for new users, as well as updated daily, weekly, and monthly reward programs.
The release comes as BC.GAME continues to expand in regulated markets, with an increased focus on compliance, local partnerships, and sustainable growth. The platform has been adapting its offering to meet jurisdictional requirements while strengthening its position across both licensed environments and its global crypto audience.
Kar Kheng Giam, Chief Executive Officer of BC.GAME, said:
“We want rewards to be simpler, more immediate, and more sustainable. Players should see value from the moment they start playing, without needing to reach specific milestones. With BC Engine, $BC becomes a core part of how ongoing rewards are delivered.”
The new features are now live across multiple markets, subject to local regulatory availability.

Paysafe launches Pay with Crypto solution to meet US iGaming market demand
Paysafe (NYSE: PSFE), a global payments platform, today announced the launch of Pay with Crypto, a new crypto payment method for iGaming operators and daily fantasy sports brands in the U.S. market. Powered by MoonPay, the leader in global crypto payments and stablecoin infrastructure, Pay with Crypto allows iGaming brands’ customers to use their preferred stablecoin or cryptocurrency to effortlessly fund their player accounts, where permitted.
With a reported ~70.4m American adults owning cryptocurrency and with Paysafe’s own research indicating that 83% of U.S. players have appetite for crypto payments, the company has responded to meet this demand with Pay with Crypto. Whether a player wants to fund their iGaming account using USD Coin (USDC), another stablecoin, or any major cryptocurrency, Paysafe’s new payment option for operators’ cashiers enables their crypto deposit to be rapidly converted to U.S. dollars to allow play.
After selecting Pay with Crypto and their preferred stablecoin or cryptocurrency, players simply connect their crypto or custodial wallet to fund the deposit, with the MoonPay Commerce Checkouts technology also supporting transactions via QR code using users’ phones. Once transactions have been verified, Pay with Crypto instantly converts crypto deposits into U.S. dollars to fund the player account.
The flexibility embedded in the Pay with Crypto solution also extends to operators, which can choose to settle payments almost instantly in stablecoins in their business’s crypto wallet, or settle in U.S. dollars or any major fiat currency through MoonPay’s Virtual Accounts powered by Iron.
Operators can upgrade their cashiers with Pay with Crypto through a single, streamlined integration of the Paysafe Gateway, which has been developed specifically for iGaming and leverages the company’s 30 years’ global experience. With the Gateway already boasting frictionless card payments, the Skrill digital wallet, the PaysafeCash eCash solution, a Pay by Bank product, and 30+ local payment methods, the addition of Pay with Crypto sees Paysafe continue to diversify its offering to meet evolving transactional preferences.
Zak Cutler, President of Global Gaming at Paysafe, said: “Galvanized by the growing popularity of stablecoins, cryptocurrency is evolving in the U.S. from an investment asset into a unit of value for payments, and we’re seeing this shift gather pace in the country’s iGaming market. Against this backdrop, we’re delighted to unveil Pay with Crypto, a forward-thinking solution that strongly positions U.S. operators for their customers’ changing transactional preferences – the future of how they pay when they play.”
Ivan Soto-Wright, Founder and CEO of MoonPay, commented: “Crypto rails are making payments faster and more efficient, and our job is to close the gap between this technology and real-world utility. People shouldn’t have to convert their digital assets just to make a purchase – they want to use what they already have. Paysafe brings that experience to more people through trusted, regulated platforms.”
