IGSA 2020 Report: “Conversations” YouTube Series, New Online Gaming & Regulatory Standards, GSA Japan Grows
The International Gaming Standards Association (IGSA) is working alongside the Gaming Industry to adjust to our new normal. IGSA worked quickly early in the year to turn our 2020 strategy into one that would continue to support the industry during these challenging times.
For education, IGSA continues to produce the YouTube Webinar Series, “IGSA Conversations.” The program features nine educational webinars for a total of 24 videos. Members and non-members can enjoy the completed 13 videos and three live webinars on IGSA’s YouTube Channel. In addition, IGSA released a new product sheet, Covid-19 Operational Safety Enhancements, to protect regulators and reduce liability for operators. IGSA also released a new white paper, Secure Wireless connectivity for EGM and Systems, and authored a new Regulatory Handbook on IGSA Standards.
In technical work, IGSA is set to release two new standards. The long-anticipated Regulatory Reporting Interface standard (RRI) 1.0. RRI is a set of standardized reporting requirements that meet the core needs of the regulatory community while being flexible enough to allow extensions for jurisdiction-specific needs. The online gaming standard Third-Party Game Interface (TPI) 1.5, is the version of the standards now being used in the field which reflects input from the reduction to practice of TPI v1.0.
In partnership with GSA Europe and IAGR, IGSA first led the CEN Technical Committee 456 to a successful completion of the draft CEN Online Gambling Reporting standard – currently being translated into three languages. IGSA also contributed articles on regulatory issues to the IAGR newsletter for the regulatory community.
Finally, IGSA joins GSA Japan in welcoming its first Silver member, Mongterang International Inc.

Duelbits launches Tap Trading, a live Solana price-prediction casino game
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.”

GGPoker brings back $1M Go for Gold promo for Spin & Gold players
GGPoker is bringing back its $1M Go for Gold promotion for Spin & Gold players starting June 12, with $1,000,000 in additional prizes available while supplies last, the operator said.
The promotion applies to all 3-Max and 6-Max Spin & Gold tournaments. At the start of each tournament, the prize multiplier wheel determines that game’s prize pool. Players then earn a “stamp” for each different multiplier they hit, with 3-Max and 6-Max stamps treated as interchangeable equivalents.
A player becomes eligible for an instant cash prize after collecting five different multiplier stamps, with prizes worth up to $10,000 per completed card, according to GGPoker. After opening a prize, players can begin collecting a new set of stamps 24 hours after the moment they collected the first stamp of the previous run.
“Spin & Gold games are already some of the most exciting formats we offer, but our $1M Go for Gold promotion turns the dial up to eleven,” said Paul Burke, Head of Public Relations at GGPoker. “Our community loved this promotion last year, and we couldn’t wait to bring it back. We’re thrilled to give our players another chance to turn spins into up to $10,000 in extra cash, simply by hitting the multipliers!”
GGPoker has also linked the promotion to its broader $14M June Giveaway, with full terms and conditions available on the operator’s promotional page.

Yaspa won two categories at the EGR B2B Awards 2026 on 3 June, taking home AI Solutions Provider and AI Solutions Provider at the ceremony in London.
The EGR B2B Awards, held this year at the HAC, recognise suppliers across the iGaming industry. In awarding the AI Solutions Provider trophy, judges said: “Yaspa has demonstrated a highly credible, research-backed, and socially responsible innovation that uses AI to address one of the industry’s toughest challenges: linking financial well-being with gaming behaviour. Yaspa’s Intelligent Payments platform combines technical depth, regulatory alignment, and real-world performance metrics, making it a standout entrant for categories focused on AI innovation, data analytics, or responsible gambling enablement.”
For Safer Gambling Supplier, the judges added: “Yaspa has delivered a strong and innovative submission focused on financial vulnerability and demonstrating a great take on open-banking’s ability to link to at-risk indicators. Intelligent Payments is well aligned to current affordability challenges and provides useful research validation.”
James Neville, CEO of Yaspa, said: “To win not one but two awards at the coveted EGR B2B Awards is an incredible achievement and testament to the great work the whole Yaspa team has done from the company’s inception to now.
“The recognition by the industry of how our technology is using AI to make gambling safer shows the direction the market is heading and how we are leading the technological innovation in this space, from the front.”
Yaspa said the wins follow a period of growth over the past 18 months, including a $12m investment round in July led by Discerning Capital. The company also referenced the opening of a new Atlanta office in the US and a tech hub in Leeds, UK, in August 2025.
