FUNToken.io and Intertops Organize Crypto Poker Freeroll Event

This holiday weekend has been filled with lots of niceties, especially for gamers. For crypto and casino game enthusiasts, it has been even more fun. Poker players have been treated to quite an amazing experience thanks to the largest cryptocurrency poker freeroll event that comes to an end today, July 4.

Intertops, one of the biggest online gambling platforms on the planet, has recently partnered with FUNTokem.io, and together they have made history with the freeroll event. Hosted by Intertops, the tournament featured daily satellites all leading up to the July 4 final table.

“We’re very excited to have our first poker freeroll for FUN tokens hosted by one of the longest established i-gaming sites, Intertops.eu. And we’re working with Intertops to explore further integration with the Fun token on their site in the future,” FunToken.io Adriaan Brink commented.

For many poker lovers who also have interests in crypto, this was a great opportunity for them to claim thousands of free FUN tokens. These are very lucrative to own and are tradeable in major digital currency exchanges like Binance, BitFinex, HitBTC, and Changelly among others.

Huge Win for Gambling and Crypto

As mentioned earlier, Intertops is no stranger to the world of gambling. The operator already boasts of offering up to 4,000 daily wagers to customers from all around the globe. It also has a solid reputation having paid out over $500 million in winnings to its customers. The opportunity to host a crypto poler freeroll event thus presents it with a unique opportunity to tap into that market.

For FUNToken, partnering with Intertops is a great way of reaching even more gambling enthusiasts. The digital asset is already an established one-stop gaming token that makes online gambling much easier to finance and integrate. Its best traits are that it provides a clear and provably fair method of funding. This has enabled the token to revolutionize the way that online casino operators hand important operations like deposits, withdrawals, transactions, and even loyalty points or rewards.

The crypto sector continues to prove that it is more than ready for mainstream adoption. While it has certainly come a long way, it is not where we all want it to get to. At least not yet. With such collaborations and events, more people will be able to see the viability of digital currencies as ways of funding gambling activities and modern means of exchange. This is just the beginning.

Virtue Poker to Hold Celebrity Charity Poker Tournament

Renowned blockchain-powered poker platform Virtue Poker is looking to deliver yet another win to the crypto-ecosystem thanks to an upcoming poker tournament. The company will be celebrating its recent launch and developments through the poker tournament which is expected to go down sometime in early June. Having been under development for five years, the Phil Ivey-led online poker operation has so much going for it and it is all about to get even better.

Lots to Look Forward To

Virtue Poker did not seem to have much of a problem pushing its upcoming celebrity poker tournament. Backing the venture are some very well-known industry investors including Pantera Capital, ConsenSys, and DFG Group among others, all of whom could further help solidify its credibility. That said, the no-limit Texas Hold’em poker tournament will be a great launchpad for the company’s ambitious plan for the industry.

Already there is a solid lineup of people that are expected to attend. These include celebrities, influencers, and many poker industry leaders. Most notably, Phil Ivey who also happens to be a Poker Hall of Famer will be among the people that will grace the poker tournament. Other notable figures that will be participating in the tournament include the Virtue Poker Pro team, Ethereum Co-Founder Joe Lubin, Founder and CEO of Ethernity Chain Nick Rose, and NBA Hall of Famer Paul Pierce.

“Virtue Poker is excited to take this next step to drive awareness and adoption of the world’s first blockchain-based P2P poker platform. Through our partnership with SuperStarter and our execution of our Celebrity Poker Charity event, Virtue Poker will be able to grow our community’s foundation as well as showcase the platform to a broad audience,” Virtue Poker CEO Ryan Gittleson.

The winner of the planned tournament will get to decide on a charitable organization that will receive the proceeds from the event. Virtue Poker will also issue all of the celebrity participants with NFTs and these will act as bounties of sorts during the tournament.

Where to Catch the Action

For anyone that will be interested in watching all the action that will go down during Virtue Poker’s tournament, look no further. The operator will be broadcasting the even as it unfolds on Twitch. In addition to that, fans of the participants will also be able to watch on the channels of these players.

Crypto giving back to the community is certainly a good thing but this is also bound to mark yet another huge leap for crypto and blockchain as they move towards mainstream adoption.
