Alive Casino launches new platform combining virtual reality and blockchain
Reading Time: 2 minutes
Alive Entertainment Company, a Cost Rica-based gaming developer, have launched a new casino platform that combines virtual reality and blockchain technologies. What is special on the platform is that users have an opportunity to play games on a land-based casino and experience the full features of virtual reality and a 360-degree view of games. The company has also started exclusive private sale its token. It plans to sell 15 per cent of its AL tokens to raise the funds for development of the platform. The AL tokens have their value set at $0.015 per unit, which can be purchased against payment in ETH.
While Alive Casino has not set a minimum limit for token purchase, there is a maximum cap of 75 ETH in place for each buyer. In addition, the token sale participants contributing 1 ETH or more also stand to receive a 15 per cent bonus along with a chance to win HTC VIVE VR headset.
The Project
The Alive Casino project is based on the principles of “keeping things alive.” It intends to create a living, thriving and secure gaming alternative for gambling enthusiasts. Having set a clear vision, the platform, empowered by a highly capable team is working on implementing them in a step-by-step process. Divided into short-term and long-term vision, Alive will be focusing on the following
In the short-term:
Creating strategic partnerships that can help implement a global gaming environment, complete with games, analytics, customer support, etc.
Community building by onboarding like-minded gamers, crypto-experts and enthusiasts.
Constant research and development to introduce new features and further improve existing offerings.
Creating its own VR game titles
Token
The AL token is based on ERC20 standards, and it acts as a utility token fuelling the platform’s economy as well as the blockchain functions. As more people join Alive Casino, the use of AL is set to rise, creating demand and increased liquidity. As an incentive to those contributing towards its mission, Alive Casino will have a profit distribution process in place, where 40 per cent of the profits will be shared with token holders. To receive pay-outs, token holders must store ALs in Alive Hold Wallet.
The platform will maintain the demand for AL in the market by burning 5 per cent of the token revenues every three months.
Those interested in possession of AL tokens can do so by participating the in the ongoing token sale process. In order to ensure global participation, the platform has made the whole process easier. Participants can directly send ETH from their wallets to the smart contract. The sale is also open for US residents, and the address used to send ETH will be considered for the selection of HTC VIVE VR headset winners during the private sale, which will be decided based on a random draw once 75 ETH is raised during the exclusive private sale.
Transferring funds to the platform has been made possible through Alive multi wallet system. The wallets will be personal, as per user’s preferences and more secure since everything will be done on the blockchain. The multi wallet system will also come in handy in helping users store both fiat and multiple cryptocurrencies. It will also protect the users from any untoward circumstances which might affect the platform itself as they will have their balances saved within their own wallet and not on the platform.

William Hill and Checkd Dev launch UK markets’ first fully automated pre-canned stats-powered Bet Builders
Reading Time: 2 minutes
Checkd Dev, part of the award-winning Checkd Group, has worked alongside William Hill to launch the UK betting industry’s first fully automated and pre-canned Bet Builders, delivering stats-backed, one-tap selections at both global and fixture level across all football fixtures.
Building on the initial launch in March this year of pre-canned accumulators for both football and horse racing, Checkd Dev is delighted to announce the evolution of that technical solution into the Bet Builder category.
Working closely with William Hill, the Automated ‘Trending Bets’ solution has evolved into a specific Bet Builder proposition utilising proprietary pricing from William Hill’s trading team to create football bets for their recreational customer base in the UK market.
The bets are easy to evaluate, backed by relevant contextual statistics, and can be generated at scale across all football fixtures, providing a simple one-click to bet slip step, which creates a significant time saving from manual Bet Builder creation.
Although pre-canned bets have been around for years, this new automated version delivers time-saving and cost-effective bet generation for bookmakers along with attractive betting opportunities for customers.
William Hill customers are presented with unique bets designed specifically for their recreational base, strengthening brand differentiation and protecting operator margin.
Once the operator sets up ‘parameters’ the automated back end engine continuously generates and refreshes curated Bet Builder options at scale. This removes the need for repetitive manual build and settlement hours, allowing William Hill’s traders to focus more time on price strategy and risk management.
Andrew Grimshaw, Commercial Director at Checkd Dev, said: “As the new football season really gets going, we’re proud to take our automation a step further, delivering a UK first in Bet Builder content with the William Hill team. The efficiency for trading and the ability to create global and fixture-level bets at true scale are second to none, and the result on the front end is a faster, more engaging journey for recreational customers.”
Tom Hargreaves, Head of Commercial – Football at William Hill, added: “This is yet another new product that William Hill has launched in a matter of months. We believe this demonstrates our commitment to putting the right products in front of our customers, making betting journeys easier and more fun.
“Together, William Hill and Checkd Dev are industrialising personalised Bet Builder content, combining operator-owned pricing with stats-led automation to improve customer experience and trading efficiency in one move.”

GR8 Tech landed heavyweight wins on all fronts at SBC Summit 2025, taking home the prestigious Platform Provider of the Year award and drawing record-breaking crowds with its Heavyweight Club activation with Ready to Fight, which brought undisputed world champion Oleksandr Usyk to the summit floor.
Heavyweight Presence: Super Stage Panel and iGaming Influencers at GR8 Tech Booth
On the Super Stage, GR8 Tech and Ready to Fight held “The Heavyweight Playbook: Building Businesses That Perform When It Matters Most” panel discussion. Oleksandr Usyk opened up about discipline and trust in his team, while Kyrylo Korobka, Executive Director at Ready to Fight, emphasized the importance of data-driven preparation. Yevhen Krazhan, CSO at GR8 Tech, showed how the same principles apply to iGaming, where platforms must perform flawlessly under pressure.
“Whether it’s preparing for a championship fight or building an iGaming platform, excellence comes from systematic discipline, not just talent,” Yevhen Krazhan, CSO at GR8 Tech, said during the discussion.

GR8 Tech’s CEO Oleksandr Feshchenko claimed the top score and Usyk’s signed gloves. However, given GR8 Tech’s partnership with Ready to Fight, the prize was never meant to stay in-house—instead going to the next highest scorer, Rasmus Sojmark, CEO and Founder of SBC Gaming, capturing the core of the Heavyweight Club philosophy: champions create champions.
Usyk’s appearance drew massive attention, driving a fivefold increase in traffic to the GR8 Tech stand—igniting new sales opportunities and sparking a surge of meaningful engagement with prospects and partners.
Platform for Champions: GR8 Tech Named Platform Provider of the Year
GR8 Tech capped off its heavyweight presence at SBC Summit 2025 by being named “Platform Provider of the Year” at the SBC Awards ceremony.
This prestigious recognition confirms what GR8 Tech has built: a true Platform for Champions that provides the unmatched performance, flexibility, and global infrastructure required for operators who refuse to settle for second place. The validation was echoed by exceptional demand and operator interest witnessed throughout the summit, with 200+ meetings demonstrating the industry’s appetite for champion-level solutions.
“The Heavyweight Club is built on performance, not promises. At SBC Summit, we showed that operators with the ambition to lead will find in GR8 Tech a partner that pushes them further, faster, and stronger—and winning Platform Provider of the Year proves it,” Sergey Ghazaryan, CRO at GR8 Tech, summed up.
