BoxBet, a blockchain-driven iGaming platform, has officially launched after raising substantial strategic funding in a round led by CMCC Global, a prominent $500M+ venture capital firm supported by the Winklevoss brothers and Richard Li’s Pacific Century Group.
CMCC Global, known for backing early-stage successes like Solana, joins other top investors from the iGaming and cryptocurrency sectors in positioning BoxBet as a leader in the next wave of gaming innovation.
BoxBet plans to leverage Telegram’s massive network of 900 million monthly active users to power its blockchain-enabled platform. The ecosystem centers around its deflationary token, $BXBT, aligning user participation with the platform’s growth. To jumpstart engagement, BoxBet will launch a “Bet-to-Earn” airdrop, allowing early users to share in its success from the outset.
The newly secured funding will enable BoxBet to scale operations, obtain critical gaming licenses, and expand into regulated markets. The platform’s strong performance during its stealth and beta phases highlights its potential to capitalize on new opportunities and drive innovation.
BoxBet plans to invest in major marketing campaigns, including partnerships with leading sports franchises, to boost brand visibility and user acquisition. Additionally, the company will grow its top-tier team by recruiting talent from the iGaming and technology industries to enhance its operational strength.
“We are impressed with the BoxBet team’s vision and execution capabilities,” said Martin Baumann, Managing Partner at CMCC Global. “They have the potential to redefine iGaming and create a globally recognized platform that transforms user engagement in betting.”
BoxBet has forged key partnerships, including with India’s leading privacy-focused browser, and is planning high-profile marketing campaigns in Latin America and Asia. These collaborations will drive its rapid expansion into high-growth markets, setting the stage for widespread adoption.
