3rd April, 2018, (Debert, Nova Scotia, Canada) – Bookie, the decentralized sports betting exchange built on blockchain technology, will go live with a public, play-for-fun public beta ahead of this summer’s World Cup.

Bookie Public Beta will offer users the opportunity to win real bitcoin prizes as they take part in a series of betting competitions and leaderboards using play money.

Running throughout the World Cup, the public beta is the final phase in Bookie’s development, after which it will be ready for full deployment on the Peerplays blockchain. Bookie Public Beta will be the first ever public showcase of provably fair sports betting.

Today’s announcement is accompanied by the launch of a new website – www.bookiebeta.com – where the Bookie Public Beta app will be available for download closer to the World Cup. Competition rules and bitcoin prize information will also be made available here over the coming weeks.
