This marks the 4th million-dollar winner on the platform this year

JERSEY CITY, N.J., May 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Lotto.com, the nation’s first online lottery platform to digitally deliver draw games and scratch tickets, is excited to celebrate the fourth Massachusetts – based winner since launching back in the state in October 2024. The Essex County resident Tom G. won $1,970,000 in the Massachusetts Megabucks lottery after ordering his first-ever lottery ticket on Lotto.com—just moments after seeing one of the brand’s ads.

What started as a normal day quickly turned exciting. After spotting an ad for Lotto.com, Tom G thought to himself, “Well, that seems easy.” He downloaded the Lotto.com app, quickly located the Massachusetts Megabucks game, ordered his tickets, and went on with his day. To his surprise, Tom was later notified that his beginner’s luck had paid off—he was the big winner! He praised the brand’s user-friendly design, saying, “The Lotto.com app is extremely intuitive! Only took a couple seconds to find what I wanted and order my tickets!”

As someone dreaming of buying a home and expecting twins, Tom is thrilled about his win—especially as a first-time lottery player. “I’ve never won anything in my life, and I’ve never played the lottery ever,” he told the brand, proving that anyone could be the next big lottery winner.

In October 2024, Lotto.com became the first lottery courier to deliver scratch tickets digitally in Massachusetts. As with all tickets ordered on the Lotto.com platform, the Massachusetts lottery ticket helps contribute incremental funds to meaningful commonwealth-run programs including local aid for public safety staffing and equipment, snow removal, local road improvements, school services, programs for seniors and more.

“This winner is the embodiment of Lotto.com’s mission to generate incremental winners and funds for good causes,” said Thomas Metzger, CEO of Lotto.com Inc. “He had never played the lottery before which is evidence that we are in fact reaching new players!”

In the fiscal year 2023, the Massachusetts Lottery returned a record $1.2 billion in net profit to the Commonwealth for distribution of unrestricted local aid to the 351 towns and cities in Massachusetts, which Lotto.com is honored to now be contributing to. Along with their phenomenal returns, the Commonwealth boasts both the highest scratch and total per capita lottery sales in the country. The Massachusetts Lottery has generated over $155 billion in revenue and returned over $33 billion in net profit to the Commonwealth since its inception in 1972.

London, UK, Jan. 15, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — “MAU token” has achieved a significant milestone by becoming the first MOVE-based token to enable volume-based staking through Baptswap. Currently trading at 6.9M, the token boasts a total trading volume of 6M, resulting in $60,000 worth of rewards for stakers.

This volume-based staking feature marks a groundbreaking development not only for MOVE-based blockchains, but also for staking in general. Stakers will receive rewards in both  APT and MAU. Stakers can grow their MAU balance whilst also being rewarded  in APT, allowing them to stay liquid and agile within their positions.

This achievement is a monumental step for parallel execution and MOVE. Users can now enjoy the features of EVM-based blockchains whilst simultaneously benefiting from the low gas fees, security, and impressive 160,000 TPS offered by the APTOS blockchain.

MAU is emerging as a rising-star in parallel execution-based blockchains and is forecasted to continue growing as liquidity bridges over to APTOS which has gained 100% over the last  3 Months.

The project is also the first of its kind to be granted by a layer-1, receiving a grant from the APTOS foundation with aims to expand its community through new creative initiatives.
