BetHog Plans to Use Blockchain Technology

The new sportsbook and casino platform will be powered by Solana blockchain technology and will accept leading crypto currency including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and USDT. The founders boast this new casino platform is set to become a disruptor to the status quo of the igaming sector.

The gaming portfolio at the new BetHog online casino will comprise many original titles for in-house development, as well as popular game content from tier 1 suppliers Pragmatic and Evolution.

The statement outlined that BetHog plans to produce skill based games using the latest Web3 and cutting edge blockchain technology.

The crypto casino market has seen dramatic growth over the past few years driven by innovations like provably fair games, robust VIP programs and streaming, With BetHog, my goal is to innovate even further by bringing unique and highly visual games to market. I want to offer users unique play-along and skill-based titles, combined with a robust VIP offering, but most of all, this is about maximizing fun for our users!
