With the newly garnered support, Decentral Games will usher in new innovations to expand the rapidly-evolving blockchain metaverse, Play-to-Earn Gaming vertical, and NFT markets on BSC.

Decentral Games (DG), a leading metaverse-native GameFi DAO has secured significant support and funding from Binance Smart Chain’s $100 million Accelerator Fund.

Decentral Games, the leading play-to-earn platform and the disruptor to traditional gaming, will use the financial resources to usher in new innovations to expand the rapidly-evolving blockchain metaverse, GameFi vertical, and NFT markets on the Binance Smart Chain (BSC).

Binance Smart Chain’s funding also enables Decentral Games to accelerate the creation of new games and features for its existing six metaverse venues with new venues and games lined up in the coming weeks.

Equally important is that this funding partnership exposes Decentral Games to Binance Smart Chain’s millions of users worldwide and its more than 800 dApps, strengthening the long-term permanence of Decentral Games’ play-to-earn economy. And with the ICE Poker product, Decentral Games’ latest and much anticipated play-to-earn product designed to boost concurrent and daily players, Binance Smart Chain’s scalability advantages will ensure users continue to enjoy the experience they’ve come to expect as GameFi grows in popularity.

“With Decentral Games paving the way for GameFi projects to connect crypto with entertainment, play-to-earn incentives models have a higher scope for better mass adoption,” said Samy Karim, BSC Ecosystem Coordinator. Mr. Karim pronounced those words when announcing BSC’s decision to fund DG. “In line with the investment, we will support DG and help it flourish in the BSC ecosystem.”

“The Binance Smart Chain ecosystem bolsters a range of NFT, Infra, and GameFi projects that have accelerated the growth of crypto with a multitude of real-life use-cases,” said Mr. Karim. “We’re constantly looking to collaborate with projects that help new users navigate an easy point of entry into DeFi.”

Decentral Games Founder Miles Anthony shared, “The DG team is proud to have Binance Smart Chain’s support and trust in our bold vision for the future of entertainment and free play, EV-positive gaming in the metaverse.”

The strategic investment in Decentral Games follows a series of other investments and partnerships that further show how strong the metaverse gaming project is and how much global interest it has garnered globally.

Industry giants such as Digital Currency Group, Polygon, Decentraland, Arca Funds, Hashkey, and Collab+Currency, along with the new addition of BSC accelerator funds, have strategically partnered with Decentral Games.
BSC’s cross-chain ecosystem supports the seamless onboarding of projects bridging from Ethereum, leading it to become the fastest-growing DeFi chain by volume in recent months.

Experts have estimated that the traditional gaming sector is poised to see a 9.64% CAGR from 2021 to 2026. At the intersection of cryptocurrency and virtual gaming, a similarly prolonged growth trend is underpinned partly by innovations in the emerging play-to-earn movement.

As the BSC ecosystem boasts ongoing critical user growth, it avoids the risks associated with scalability-related bottlenecks, including high transaction fees. BSC users currently benefit from lower gas fees 20 times lower when compared to other leading blockchain projects. Simultaneously, transaction volumes have increased sixfold on Binance Smart Chain compared to Ethereum.

Founded in 2019, Decentral Games has become a premier metaverse project within a short timeframe. Its leadership in the metaverse gaming space has helped bring the popular play-to-earn GameFi model to prominence.
The model rewards players for their continued participation on the platform. This unique innovation has allowed Decentral Games to amass a loyal following of dedicated players all invested in the collective proliferation of the brand. And true to its mission statement, play-to-earn has created a direct pathway that enables Decentral Games investors to “be the house”.

As new users are onboarded and begin to participate in the financial incentive structure offered by the platform, the growth of Decentral Games’ user base effectively raises the aggregate value of the project’s economy.
This year, Decentral Games has seen an outsized increase in demand for their immersive metaverse environments, enabling them to expand their product offerings and market segments. Decentral Games’ foray into the nightlife space with the debut of a virtual nightclub venue, and the NFT space with the addition of a dedicated platform for digital assets, have both greatly expanded the value proposition of the overall DG experience.

DuelBits says UFC creator campaign delivers 122m verified video views

duelbits-says-ufc-creator-campaign-delivers-122m-verified-video-views

DuelBits has published results from its JUSTIN2026 marketing campaign, saying the UFC-focused activation generated more than 122 million verified video views and contributed to one of the company’s strongest MMA betting events “in recent years.”

The crypto sportsbook and casino operator said the campaign launched ahead of UFC event Freedom 250 at the White House and centred on former UFC lightweight champion Justin Gaethje. DuelBits framed the partnership as an early bet on Gaethje, before broader commercial interest.

According to the company, the campaign set a KPI to exceed 100 million impressions across owned, paid and partnered media, and ultimately delivered more than 122 million verified clip views via a network of more than 140 creators. The asset mix included a hero film, six short-form cutdowns, behind-the-scenes content and still imagery, distributed via DuelBits’ social channels, MMA publishers, creator partnerships and clipping pages.

DuelBits said the hero content was also integrated into Gaethje’s “Art of Violence” YouTube series. The operator added that the activation drove promotional code engagement and helped convert attention into sportsbook activity.

Jasper Hoekert, Chief Marketing Officer at Duelbits, said: “We wanted to support Justin before everyone else recognised the opportunity. Instead of following the hype once he has already achieved greatness, we wanted to back a champion before anybody else did.

“The campaign wasn’t measured purely on views. Of course, surpassing 122 million verified views and exceeding our 100 million KPI was a huge achievement, but the real success was seeing that attention convert into one of our strongest UFC betting nights in recent years.

“It also reinforced something that’s key to DuelBits as a brand, which is that we don’t do small campaigns. Whether it’s the production quality, creator network, or distribution strategy, we want every activation to show what’s possible when sportsbook marketing is treated like premium entertainment.”

Slotegrator now provides native app experience for iGaming platforms with PWA function

slotegrator-now-provides-native-app-experience-for-igaming-platforms-with-pwa-function

Slotegrator’s platform solution now offers progressive web app (PWA) functionality, enabling operators to provide installable casino apps with push notifications, flexible branding, and seamless access across changing domains. 

The Casino Builder module in Slotegator’s platform solution has been upgraded with a Progressive Web Application (PWA) feature that allows casinos to deliver an app-like experience without relying on the App Store or Google Play. 

Native apps are powerful tools for building customer loyalty and enhancing engagement. However, iGaming brands face serious obstacles, such as strict marketplace policies, long review processes, geographic restrictions, and the constant threat of app removal. Slotegrator’s PWA functionality eliminates these barriers, allowing players to install a casino app directly from their browser and enjoy many of the same benefits as a native app.

After installation, the PWA opens from the user’s home screen, loads fast, and supports push notification integration that enhances player engagement and retention.

“Mobile is still the leading channel for user acquisition and retention; however, it’s difficult to distribute native apps in iGaming,” says Olga Ivanchik, COO at Slotegrator. “Our new PWA feature gives operators an alternative that will be familiar to their players, while eliminating the complications related to conventional app stores. Operators can launch quickly, retain full control over updates, and ensure a perfect mobile gaming experience for any market.”

Within the next 2 months, operators will also have the ability to determine when the PWA install bar will be visible to the player. For example, displaying the install bar immediately after the first deposit, as part of a broader retention strategy, helps drive long-term player LTV. The operator can also set up frequency of the install offer — daily, weekly, just once, etc. 

Some operators have to consider UX for multiple frontends. Luckily, the installation widgets are highly flexible, helping them drive maximum conversion without sacrificing user experience. Operators can select a top bar or a top banner installation widget, both of which are fully customizable with branded icons, messaging, and backgrounds.

Operators can limit the visibility of their installation campaigns to specific devices — desktop, mobile, Android, or iOS — thanks to special targeting options. Operators can also design acquisition strategies specific to each platform, driving installs only where they offer the best user experience.

When players install the PWA, operators can connect it to push notification services, so they can re-engage them even when the application isn’t actively open. 

Mirror domain compatibility addresses a common operational challenge in restricted markets. If an operator has to change domains due to licensing or regulatory requirements, players who have already installed the PWA will be able to continue using it without reinstallation.

Unlike native applications, PWAs don’t require App Store or Google Play approval, effectively eliminating possible delays and the risk of removal from the market. Instead, operators can deploy updates instantly to every user.

The new PWA functionality is now available in Slotegrator’s Casino Builder module, alongside other tools for improving mobile acquisition, engagement, and player retention.
