Cricket Legend Brett Lee and Sportsbet.io both ‘bowl a Bitcoin’ as Crypto Community Supports the Covid Crisis in India

April 30th, 2021,Tallinn, Estonia — Sportsbet.io and Australian cricket legend Brett Lee are both ‘bowling a Bitcoin’ to help bring much-needed medical supplies and support to India during the ongoing Covid crisis in the country.

 

Sportsbet.io ambassador and cricket legend Brett Lee spoke about his experiences in India, stating:

“India has always been like a second home for me. The love and affection that I have got from the people of this country both during my professional career and even after my retirement, holds a special place in my heart. It saddens me deeply to see people suffering due to the ongoing pandemic.

 

1BTC Donation 

Brett Lee has donated one Bitcoin to CryptoRelief.in, a community-run fund started by Polygon co-founder Sandeep Nailwal. And Sportsbet.io has now followed Lee’s example, also donating one Bitcoin to the cause. The generous donations represent a total of over $155,000 USD (at the time of writing). 

 

Brett continued:

 

“I feel privileged to be in a position of making a difference and with that in mind, I’d like to donate 1 BTC to Crypto Relief to help with purchase of oxygen supplies for the hospitals across India.

“Now is the time to be united and ensure we do as much as we can to help the ones in need. I’d also want to thank all the frontline workers who have been working round the clock during these tough times. I request people to please take care, stay at home, wash your hands and head out only if absolutely necessary, wear a mask and maintain social distancing.”

 

The CryptoRelief Mission

CryptoRelief.in’s mission is to reduce suffering by providing healthcare and essentials to those fighting for survival against Covid, welcoming donations from around the world in cryptocurrency.

It has already raised more than $3 million in cryptocurrency for the cause, including donations by many high-profile figures within the crypto community such as Vitalik Buterin.

Joe McCallum, Director of Sportsbook, at Sportsbet.io spoke about Brett Lee’s Philanthropy and Sportsbet’s own involvement with the cause, stating:  

 

“Watching Brett Lee, Pat Cummins and the wider crypto community come together to raise more than $2 million in such a short amount of time, to help fight India’s Covid emergency has been inspiring, and we absolutely needed to step up and join the effort.

“We’ve been strong believers that cryptocurrency adoption can make a genuine and positive difference to the world, and the speed at which the community has moved to help India is evidence of this. Thank you to Sandeep for organising Crypto Relief, and Brett for bringing it to our attention. We similarly hope that our contribution will encourage others to stop hodling and open their crypto wallets to help India in a moment of need.”

 

Sportsbet.io has long been an advocate of cryptocurrency adoption, and how the technology can be used to affect positive change on global issues. This recent donation is just the latest in a string of community-based acts that continue to showcase the casino and sportsbook operator as a leader for global cryptocurrency adoption.

Fly to the Moon and Win One of Three Tesla Cars with New Bitcasino Game, Live Crash

Bitcoin Press Release: Crypto gaming leader Bitcasino is giving away three Tesla Model 3’s to winners of its new game, Live Crash

 

April 19, 2021, Tallinn, Estonia – Crypto gaming pioneer Bitcasino is giving everyone a chance to win a Tesla Model 3 in one of the platform’s biggest giveaways ever, but only if players can reach the moon in its new game Live Crash. The landmark promo, which runs between April 19 and July 11, will reward three lucky players with a pioneering EV worth €58,560.

 

Fly To The Moon To Win

Live Crash challenges players to pick the perfect moment to cash out of a wager, as they watch a car gathering speed and taking off into space. Players can pre-set their cash out amount or alter it in real time, and the longer they wait, the higher the multiplier will be. But wait too long, and they risk going up in flames.

 

Bitcasino is running weekly qualifier tournaments to secure a place in one of three final monthly tournaments, where the player with the highest multiplier in each will win a Tesla.

 

Tauri Tiitsaar, Director of Bitasino at the Coingaming Group, said: 

 

“Tesla, Bitcoin and Bitcasino are all pioneers in their respective fields, and that’s why we wanted to give our players the chance of a lifetime to win their very own Tesla Model 3. With three Teslas up for grabs, there is an even greater chance to win the car of your dreams. 

 

Our Live Crash tournament guarantees fun, fast and fair gameplay and a fantastic prize for the players who best hold their nerve and reach the moon.”

 

Tesla Model 3

The Tesla Model 3 is one of the best-selling electric cars on the planet, boasting a sleek design and impressive performance, including 423 kilometres of zero-emission driving and 0-100 km/h in just 3.3 seconds.

YFX.COM: The Decentralized Cross-Chain Perpetual Contract Exchange

10th April, 2021, — YFX.COM is one of the world’s first decentralized cross-chain perpetual contract exchanges. While other trading platforms that provide leverage alternatives exist, YFX.COM is trailblazing a decentralized alternative to centralized exchanges and perpetual futures trading without a central intermediary. YFX.COM does this by taking advantage of different protocols across the cryptocurrency landscape.

 

Blockchain Protocols

Through a culmination of blockchain protocols YFX.COM is allowing traders to participate in trading BTC, ETH and other cryptocurrencies with up to 100x leverage. These cryptocurrencies are now available to be traded across these blockchains: 

 

• Ethereum
• Tron
• Binance Smart Chain
• Heco
• OKEx Chain
• Polkadot. 

 

Through the advent of QIC-AMM, a state of the art protocol, YFX.COM provides high liquidity with low slippage for users of our ecosystem. QIC is an acronym for Quoted Index Price. QIC pulls quoted prices from centralized exchanges and traders can open and close positions with our first of a kind automatic market maker for derivatives. 

 

QIC is calculated through dynamic depth of indices, price quotation and constant integral. The depth of a transaction is correlated to the amount of liquidity of the market maker’s capital pool. This combination of protocols allows for YFX.COM to be an efficient leverage trading platform on the market.

 

No KYC or Gas Fee’s

Additionally, YFX.COM is able to achieve all of this without KYC and gas fees. As many traders know, gas fees have been a major issue lately. Eliminating gas fees gives YFX.COM another major advantage against all competition. The platform also allows for traders to trade efficiently and secure their profits without major loss from expensive network fees. 

 

YFX.COM has achieved nearly zero network fees through use of layer-2 [L2] scaling solution, xDai Chain. xDai Stable Chain is a side chain to Ethereum and is far more efficient than the ETH mainnet currently. The transactions are more convenient and the fees are a fraction of fees on ETH mainnet. 

 

1st Prize at Tron 2021 Global DeFi Hackathon

Last week YFX.COM won 1st Prize in the Tron 2021 Global DeFi Hackathon Developer Contest. This was a great achievement for YFX.COM and we’re thankful for this opportunity put on by the Tron Foundation and Justin Sun. YFX are committed to the blockchain space and look forward to participating in more events to help advance this industry. 

 

Genesis Mining II 

On April 6, the YFX.COM Genesis Mining II event began at 20:00 (UTC+8). The event will run through April 16 and is a competition for traders and miners to compete against others and earn YFX.COM tokens in the process [which are not available anywhere on the market]. Through just 12 hours of trading, volume has reached over $1 billion and our liquidity pool is over $10 million U.S. dollars which exceeds Uniswap’s activity. 

 

CertiK Audit Completed

Additionally, CertiK has recently completed their security audit of YFX.COM. Traders and users of our platform can rest assured that the protocols are up to standard as we’re committed to providing the best product for our base.

Southampton FC Extend Partnership Deal with Blockchain Leader The Coingaming Group

Bitcoin Press Release: Southampton Football Club extended its partnership with blockchain advocate Coingaming Group for 3 years, with a record breaking sponsorship deal. 

9th April, 2021, Tallinn, Estonia — Southampton Football Club is pleased to announce that it has agreed to extend its partnership with the Coingaming Group as Main Club Partner for a further three years in a deal that will see their brand, Sportsbet.io continue as the club’s front-of-shirt sponsor.

Bitcoin Bonuses 

The deal is the biggest sponsorship agreement in the club’s history and also includes the option for the club to be paid certain performance-based bonuses in Bitcoin at the end of each season, allowing the club the opportunity to take advantage of the new, high-growth currency if it feels it will bring significant future benefits.

Positive Community Impacts 

This partnership will allow Sportsbet.io to continue to build on the strong relationship it has built with the club and its supporters in the last year. Since becoming Main Club Partner in August 2020, when they stepped in at short notice to take over the front-of-shirt sponsorship, they have worked tirelessly with the club to create a positive impact in the local community and highlight the importance of safe betting – a duty they take extremely seriously.

This work has included their ‘Listen To The Saint In You’ campaign that was launched during Safer Gambling Week, linking up with a number of Saints players to encourage fans to consider the risks before placing a bet.

Southampton FC Chief Commercial Officer, David Thomas commented:

“The team at Sportsbet.io have built a successful business by challenging convention and disrupting the market, but in a responsible way, and their approach to our partnership with them has been no different.” 

“In a short timeframe they’ve proven to be innovative, forward thinking and extremely supportive of the club, our fans and the wider community, and we’ve welcomed the opportunity to develop and promote safe gambling messages together. As such they have become valued partners and we look forward to the next chapter together”

Sportsbet have also played a key role in the club’s launch of the Positive Impact Pledge, which enabled start-ups and entrepreneurs to apply for grants to help launch their businesses during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Raising Awareness Through Philanthropy 

Most recently Sportsbet.io also donated their shirt sponsorship to the Saints Foundation for the Premier League match against Burnley to help drive awareness of the Foundation’s fundraising efforts as they aim to raise vital funds lost due to the pandemic. This gesture alone helped the Foundation raise thousands of pounds on the day, a figure that was topped up by Sportsbet.io, who very generously donated an additional £10k.

 

CEO of the Coingaming Group Maarja Pärt, added:

 

“Our first season as Southampton FC’s Main Club Partner has already exceeded all expectations. We’ve been inspired by the passion of the club and its fans, and it was an easy decision for us to extend our partnership with the Saints for another three years.”

“From the beginning, Southampton have been a perfect match for the fun, fast and fair way we do things at Sportsbet.io. We can’t wait to continue this journey with the Saints, and we’ll be doing everything we can to support the team and its community into the future.”

Following their short notice appointment as the front-of-shirt sponsor for Southampton FC, Sportsbet have impressed with the hugely positive impact that they have had on the brand and its community. As a result, the Premier League team are happy to extend its partnership with the blockchain innovator until at least 2024
