Press release
The new offering, called “Bitcoin Up or Down,” allows users to predict Bitcoin price movements and earn rewards. Players choose to join the up or the down pool. The former pool is for players predicting Bitcoin will go up, while the latter is for price drop predictions. At the end of each round, winners will earn based on their bet.
“By partnering with Playnance to offer this self-custodial and permissionless game into our platform, we’re empowering our users to explore crypto trading in a dynamic and rewarding environment,” said Bitcoin.com CEO Corbin Fraser. “This reinforces our commitment to making cryptocurrency accessible to all.”
Available on both desktop and mobile platforms, Bitcoin Up or Down leverages the PlayBlock chain, a high-speed, zero gas EVM-compatible chain developed by the Playnance team. Bets are made and prizes are paid out in Playnance Game Token (USDP), a cryptocurrency pegged to the US Dollar and backed by a diverse treasury of fiat and cryptocurrencies. The game also offers a demo mode, with bets and prizes made in points that do not have monetary value.
“By adopting Playnance’s white-label Web3 game, Bitcoin.com has integrated a profitable and engaging GameFi experience,” said Yaniv Baruch, Playnance’s COO. “This move diversifies Bitcoin.com’s offerings and provides a new, interactive way for users to explore crypto trading and monetize traffic. The opportunity is available to others in the industry as well, offering a chance to establish a new revenue stream quickly and efficiently.”
