SOFTSWISS was the world’s first company to introduce a cryptocurrency-optimised solution for online casinos platforms in 2013. At the moment, the company holds the status of the igaming industry leader in crypto gambling.

The company shares statistics and reviews on the development of cryptocurrencies in the igaming industry on a regular basis.

The data provided in the article is a part of the company’s detailed report on the state of cryptocurrencies in 2021. It presents the results of the SOFTSWISS Game Aggregator and the SOFTSWISS Casino Platform.

The increase in the number of bets in cryptocurrencies throughout the year confirms the global trend that the position of cryptocurrencies has strenghthened and that they are increasingly more popular among online casinos users.

Сompared to January 2021 when the share of bets made in  crypto was at 23 per cent, December of the same year shows that number almost doubled to 40.1 per cent. At the same time, the volume of bets in cryptocurrencies over the same period increased by more than two times, namely, by 259.21 per cent.

“Cryptocurrencies have long been not just a trend in the gambling industry, but an obvious stage in its evolution," commented Andrey Starovoitov, COO at SOFTSWISS.

"With significant benefits related to transaction speed, as well as wide market boundaries, the use of cryptocurrencies opens up significant opportunities for both players and operators. This leads to their constant growth.

"Those industry representatives who won’t develop their business in this direction in the near future risk losing a competitive advantage in the battle for users. Our statistics clearly demonstrate this.”
