Liquipedia.net Partners with Esports Entertainment Group’s VIE.bet, the World’s Most Transparent Esports Betting Platform

Liquipedia and VIE.bet to launch tech-enabled responsible betting integration

Newark, New Jersey–(Newsfile Corp. – April 16, 2021) – Esports Entertainment Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: GMBL) (NASDAQ: GMBLW) (or the “Company”) and its secure esports betting platform VIE.bet have partnered with Liquipedia.net, the world’s largest esports wiki and an affiliate of top esports organization Team Liquid. VIE.bet and Liquipedia will partner to create the most community-centric and responsible betting integration in esports, launching May 3, 2021.

Through their alliance, VIE.bet will be integrated into select Liquipedia pages, allowing Liquipedia’s millions of monthly visitors to see betting odds and place bets through VIE while having a safe experience. By partnering together, Liquipedia and VIE.bet are able to instill safety mechanisms that ensure betting information is only shown to users of legal age in VIE’s 150 whitelisted jurisdictions around the world, with another license in New Jersey pending. Betting information will be shown with visible guidelines on gambling safety, and users who prefer not to see sports betting odds will have the option to toggle them off. In partnership with VIE.bet, Liquipedia will also be publishing Esports Betting Advertising Guidelines as a Commons Wiki resource, in order to establish esports industry-wide best practices for safety, integrity and accountability in betting advertisements and partnerships.

VIE.bet and Liquipedia are committed to collaborating with enforcement and integrity institutions dedicated to safe and responsible esports betting and advertising. This includes working with the Esports Integrity Coalition (ESIC), a not-for-profit association taking responsibility for disruption, protection, investigation and prosecution of all forms of cheating in esports. In 2019, the coalition designated Esports Entertainment Group an Anti-Corruption Supporter, enabling VIE.bet to participate in ESIC’s global suspicious bet alert system, contribute to anti-corruption education initiatives, and tap into ESIC’s accumulated best practices for sports betting.

Grant Johnson, CEO of Esports Entertainment Group, said: “Esports communities have incredible passion and competitive drive, which makes for an exciting betting landscape. Unfortunately, that passion and drive is often taken advantage of, and there’s significant distrust towards betting platforms in the space. We believe there’s a better way forward in esports betting that comes from collaboration with trusted institutions. We’re proud to work with Liquipedia and VIE.bet on this new initiative, and we’re confident in VIE.bet’s ability to foster an active esports betting community by building a safe, trusted experience.”

Bux Syed, Director of VIE, said: “Liquipedia has been part of my daily life for at least 10 years. I use them to check the latest tournaments, upcoming matches and results; me and 700 million other esports fans like me visit their platform each year. As a new esports betting brand, we’re aiming to grow our brand through community based projects. It’s a no brainer for us to partner with Liquipedia and its community to educate esports fans about safe and regulated gambling. My team and I are extremely excited to work with the Liquipedia team, and we’re looking forward to introducing VIE and engaging with its community.”

Erik Saler, Head of Liquipedia, said: “A lot of esports sites have integrated betting in careless ways, sadly. As one of the largest resources in esports we not only felt a responsibility to do this better, but we also felt that if we do it right – with the right partner, in the right way – we could help improve betting in esports as a whole and make it safer for all. We are proud to have found like-minded allies in VIE.bet who share our values of community, safety, responsibility, and integrity.”

ggCircuit Announces Crypto Mining Application for LAN Centers

Newark, New Jersey–(Newsfile Corp. – April 15, 2021) – Esports Entertainment Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: GMBL) (NASDAQ: GMBLW) (or the “Company”) announced that ggCircuit is planning next month to launch its newest product, ggFuze, which is a distributed computing platform. The first application of this product will be a beta version of a custom-built crypto mining application which will be offered to a pilot group of LAN centers representing tens of thousands of high-end gaming PCs across its network. Originally developed in tandem with Helix Esports and Genji Analytics, the crypto mining application enables center owners to utilize idle computing power to passively mine for Ethereum by opting into the initiative with the click of a button. The software algorithm will automatically evaluate the hardware of the gaming PC and optimize the mining of coins so long as certain price parameters are met and the PC is not in use for gaming.

“Crypto mining during idle machine time is a request that many of our customers have been asking for and we are excited to be able to offer it as the launch application of our distributed computing product ggFuze,” said Zack Johnson, CEO of ggCircuit. “This is a great example of the synergies between ggCircuit, Helix and Genji and I am excited about these companies coming together under the EEG banner.”

“As a center owner, I know how valuable it can be to get extra revenue from the idle computing power in our facilities.” said Jack Vandervelde, Co-Founder at Helix Esports. “We’re pleased that through ggCircuit’s network, other centers can have access to this solution at the click of a button.”

ggCircuit is a B2B software company that provides cloud-based management for LAN centers, a tournament platform, and integrated wallet/point-of-sale solutions for enterprise customers. Helix eSports owns five esports centers, including two of the five largest centers in the US, where they deliver world-class customer service, esports programming and gaming infrastructure. Esports Entertainment Group agreed to acquire ggCircuit and Helix in a combined transaction valued at $43 million. The deal is expected to close this quarter.

Newark, New Jersey–(Newsfile Corp. – March 1, 2021) – Esports Entertainment Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: GMBL), (NASDAQ: GMBLW) (or the “Company”), an esports entertainment and online gambling company, today announced that its Malta gaming licensed subsidiary, Esport Entertainment (Malta) Limited, completed its acquisition of the business assets of Lucky Dino Gaming Limited (“Lucky Dino”), an established Malta licensed online casino operator with its own proprietary casino platform. The ~$30 million deal was financed through cash raised in an equity offering in February.

“Over the past five years, Lucky Dino has evolved from a single brand white-label casino operator into a multi-brand, class-leading casino operator and technology business,” commented Grant Johnson, CEO of Esports Entertainment Group. “In addition to further strengthening our tech stack, Lucky Dino’s assets will give us a substantial foothold in multiple new jurisdictions across Europe, particularly in Scandinavia where esports are extremely popular, and with Lucky Dino’s 25K monthly active casino players we will have tremendous cross-selling opportunities with our SportNation and VIE.bet betting platforms.”

In acquiring Lucky Dino’s assets, the Company now has access to a premium casino platform based on modern microservices architecture for superior simplicity, scalability, and flexibility. Lucky Dino’s proprietary technology stack includes affiliate marketing software, payment servers, and a comprehensive CRM system with a sophisticated gamification and loyalty engine and unique automated player management functionality fit for geographical expansion.

“Lucky Dino has generated an impressive track record of growth, reporting an 86% CAGR on revenue for the five years ended June 30, 2020,” continued Johnson. “With opportunities to realize synergies across shared back-office functions, payment processing and more, we are in a great position to build upon Lucky Dino’s notable EBITDA performance.
