eSports crypto betting platform provider Unikrn has successfully applied for Isle of Man licensing.
The impending rollout will allow users to bet on prominent eSports teams and tournaments, as well as activate skill-based betting wherein gamers can bet on their own success in top titles including Fortnite, Dota 2 and League of Legends.
According to Unikrn, its native cryptocurrency – UnikoinGold (UKG) – will unlock exclusive benefits for players and bettors and will become the primary crypto token for eSports wagering in 80 percent of Europe and parts of Asia and Latin America.
The platform will feature technology from Bittrex, a U.S. digital asset trading platform, in which a system will be built creating “seamless crypto accessibility for customers of Unikrn’s wagering and gaming platform”.
“Unikrn built the most advanced wagering backend in the world, built by incorporating blockchain technologies, and we’re entering a segment of the global games market which exceeds $30 billion,” Rahul Soon, co-founder and CEO of Unikrn, said.
“Equally historic for eSports, wagering, and blockchain, we’re the first company on the planet to launch with a license including crypto and fiat betting from the Isle of Man, which is home to one of the most respected regulators for gambling.”
Unikrn will launch live betting for eSports and gaming contests in October, both for crypto and fiat customers.
