Introducing The World’s First ever Passwordless Day
· Half of all help desk calls are to deal with password resets, according to research by OKTA
· More than a third of online transactions are abandoned because users forget their passwords, announced Mastercard recently
· Account takeovers cost businesses a combined $25 billion in 2020, says Juniper Research
· So, to encourage a future without passwords, MIRACL launches the world’s first ever Passwordless Day
MIRACL is calling out to the verification industry and all those championing a passwordless future to join together today, the 23rd June 2021, to highlight the ineffectiveness of the traditional ‘password’ and collectively ensure they are condemned to history.
Working in collaboration with MIRACL, businesses are asked to share their thoughts about passwords to collectively create effective online noise – on a day that has been labelled the first ever Passwordless Day in response to Password Day that was celebrated earlier in May.
Rob Griffin, CEO at MIRACL, comments, “Eight years ago, Intel launched ‘World Password Day’ to encourage people to use stronger, more unique passwords. Fast forward to 2021, technological advances means we no longer need to be using passwords at all – there are safe, secure and effective alternatives that minimise risk and make users even safer online. So today we are celebrating Passwordless Day – to highlight the vulnerability of passwords and encourage a world where they no longer exist.”
“In essence, the password is to user security what the cassette player is to music: outdated, inefficient, and prone to failing at the worst possible moment. It’s time we embrace the future. It’s time we go passwordless‘
23rd June was selected as a date to commemorate Alan Turing’s birthday – the ultimate pioneer in cryptography.
Supporters are asked to share on social media all the reasons they believe they should all be passwordless and can access social media templates and a toolkit provided by MIRACL for inspiration:

The # to share is #PasswordlessDay #Passwordless
Companies can save money, improve security, and make life easier for their users by embracing solutions built on basic cryptographic principles – without the need for a password.
MIRACL already supplies the world’s only 100% software, multi-factor authentication (MFA) PIN based solution to customers such as banking giant Crédit Agricole and consumer credit leader, Experian. No data is stored and no password is needed to use the verification.

Esports Charts and GG.BET have presented an interactive map with data on tournaments around the world
Esports Charts, an analytical service that analyzes esports viewership, has partnered up with betting brand GG.BET, to present Esports Map, an interactive map with data on the most popular esports tournaments in 110 different countries. Each tournament also comes with historical moments when favorites and outsiders unexpectedly switched places in the bracket.
The analytical service Esports Charts has added a new interactive tool to its website, the Esports Map. It features the most popular tournaments by country, as well as data on peak viewership, winners, and prize pools. It also contains information on the most popular games in each country. There are also separate analytics dedicated to the United States, with information available for each of the 50 states. Data has been collected for a period spanning from 2017 up to right now, and is continuously updated.
GG.BET, who partnered with the project, supplemented the tournament information with interesting facts about participating teams. The insights include historical breakthroughs by underdogs and unexpected losses by tournament favorites. The information is provided using past outright betting data.
Esports Map allows users to track the esports industry’s development in various parts of the world. For instance, although League of Legends remains the most popular game and the League of Legends World Championship has kept its spot as the top esports tournament for many years, Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (MLBB) is visibly closing the gap between the two games. Worlds 2024 in London had 6,856,769 peak viewers, breaking the world record among all esports games since 2017. However, MPL Indonesia’s Season 15 of MLBB has kept its place in the top spot for 2025, with 4,132,224 peak viewers. Today, MLBB remains the only mobile game capable of attracting such a massive audience, and its fan base is growing, especially in Southeast Asia. Analysts are looking forward to Worlds 2025 in China, which will allow them to update the available data and compare how different games are developing.
“Esports Map is a new project from Esports Charts, which we’ve launched alongside GG.BET as our first partner. We aimed to create a tool that would be interesting and useful to both fans and industry professionals. At its core lies Esports Charts’ analytics, supplemented by betting insights from GG.BET—covering everything from peak viewership and prize pools to discipline trends and stories of unexpected victories.. When combined, this data turns into a live snapshot of esports that can be tracked by country and region,” said Esports Charts’ press office.
“GG.BET regularly supports projects that help people understand esports at a greater depth. Esports Map provides an easy-to-understand visual representation of the industry’s progress in individual countries around the world and displays the breakdown of games by region. It will be of interest to fans and will prove useful to professionals who are developing the industry,” added GG.BET’s press office.
Esports Charts and GG.BET have previously worked together on an analytical project dedicated to the BLAST Premier 2024 season. That project displayed data on views, unique statistics about both the game and bets placed, an analytical breakdown of the season, and exclusive infographics on teams and players.

Kraken’s Catch combines suspense, spectacle, and seafaring riches in one stormy release
Stakelogic is setting sail into uncharted waters with its latest slot release, Kraken’s Catch, a feature-packed, high-volatility slot where monstrous multipliers and a mysterious sea creature lie beneath the surface.
This 5×3 slot with 15 win lines invites players on a nautical adventure where every spin can uncover treasures from the deep. Central to the chaos are the Fish symbols, which can land with multiplier values that are ripe for collection, but only if the right characters appear.
The eager Fisherman symbol hooks all visible Fish symbol values and applies a personal multiplier of up to 5x, while the mysterious Eye of the Kraken symbol, appearing exclusively on reel 5, triggers the Call of the Kraken feature, summoning the beast to scoop up all Fish and Fisherman values in a dramatic underwater sweep.
The excitement escalates in the Free Spins Bonus, where players collect Fishermen to climb the Progress Bar and trigger more spins and stronger global multipliers, up to a massive x5. If that wasn’t enough, the slot’s standout moment comes via the Eye of the Deep Bonus, an all-or-nothing spin filled exclusively with Fish, Fishermen, and the Kraken’s eye. Here, winnings are tallied through a three-stage collection mechanic that can result in monumental payouts.
Players can also activate Super Stake™, increasing their bet by 50% for double the chance to trigger Free Spins. For those eager to dive straight into the action, the Buy Bonus feature offers instant access to the Hold ‘N’ Win-style mechanic for 100x the bet.
With a max win of 5,000x, multiple RTP variants (up to 95.97%), and thrilling collection mechanics, Kraken’s Catch combines high seas drama with high-stakes gameplay in true Stakelogic style.
James Jelliffe, Head of Slots at Stakelogic, said: “Kraken’s Catch brings together everything players love about a great slot including exciting features, fast-paced progression, and thrilling collection mechanics, all wrapped in an atmospheric underwater theme. The Eye of the Deep bonus is a real highlight, delivering tension and excitement in a single spin. We’re confident this game will make waves across the industry.”
