TOKEN2049 DUBAI — In an exclusive interview with ZEX MEDIA, the CEO of MTT SPORTS took center stage at TOKEN2049 Dubai to deliver a clear message: MTT isn’t just raising the stakes—it’s rewriting the rules of the Web3 poker and e-sports economy.

From the main stage to the exhibition floor, the buzz around MTT was impossible to miss. As a Platinum Sponsor at this year’s most influential Web3 event, MTT used the opportunity to unveil bold new strategies, address platform challenges head-on, and outline a visionary roadmap that puts sustainability, community, and value creation at the forefront.

“We’re building the world’s leading decentralized Texas Hold’em competition platform”

Opening the interview, CEO Joe shared a succinct but powerful vision:

“We don’t do cash tables. We’re tournament-only. Our ambition? To see MTT Sports become an Olympic-level event in e-sports.”

With a staggering 100 BTC reward pool and weekly tournaments distributing Bitcoin to the top 27 players, MTT has carved out a unique model that rewards skill, community, and fair competition.

Quarterly Report: Big Wins & Hard Truths

Joe didn’t shy away from transparency. The Q1 2025 report showed:

  • 618,000+ registered users
  • 250,000 new users in Q1
  • 30 consecutive BTC tournaments held
  • Strong growth in Indonesia (+42%), Cuba (+685%), Russia (+61%)
  • Decline in Thailand (-42%), Taiwan (-40%)
  • WAU: 81,000, MAU: 213,000

“While we’re proud of the numbers, we’re not here to just collect registrations. It’s time to pivot from scale to quality,” Joe noted.

Strategic Shake-Up: A New Chapter for MTT Token Economy

The CEO revealed a three-pronged transformation strategy aimed at boosting user engagement, token health, and platform sustainability:

🔹 1. Goodbye Free Mining — Hello “Experience Coupons”

MTT is retiring its free mining competition model, which served its purpose in attracting early traction but is no longer sustainable.

“We’re moving from wide-net acquisition to precision incentives. Our new ‘Trial Ticket’ system will reward users who actually contribute, not just those who show up,” Joe explained.

🔹 2. 1 Billion Tokens to Be Burned

In a bold deflationary move, MTT will burn 1 billion MTT tokens—nearly half its total supply.

“This isn’t a gimmick. We want to reinforce our long-term value, build market confidence, and align tokenomics with the next chapter of our journey.”

The burn schedule will align with revenue cycles and be conducted quarterly.

🔹 3. Clubs for the Community, By the Community

One of the most anticipated features is the launch of the MTT Club System—a gamified, decentralized framework enabling users to:

  • Create and manage clubs
  • Run custom tournaments
  • Support multi-currency settlements
  • Customize event structures

“We’re giving the community tools to build their own experience, from regional preferences to professional-level events. It’s true co-creation.”

The Road Ahead: Quality, Deflation, and Gamified Social Play

What can players expect in the next quarter?

✅ More meaningful engagement: Experience coupons will help identify and reward high-quality users
✅ A healthier token ecosystem: Quarterly burns to stabilize value
✅ Club-driven expansion: Enriched social gameplay and niche community events
✅ Training grounds: Free teaching venues to nurture new talent and professional players

“TOKEN2049 is our global statement. We’re not chasing hype—we’re building a sustainable Web3 sports movement,” Joe emphasized.

Final Take: The Stakes Are Higher—But So Are the Standards

MTT Sports isn’t just participating in the Web3 game—it’s dealing a whole new hand. With a recalibrated token model, community-centric tools, and a long-term roadmap rooted in growth and responsibility, the platform is staking its claim as a serious contender in the decentralized sports arena.
