With a total of 60 international expert speakers and 32 Media partners educating 5,329 attendees over 3-days this was truly ‘not your typical blockchain event’.  Not only were crypto and blockchain enthusiasts and businesses present in abundance, Blockchain World’s mission to educate everyone made the show truly unique by incorporating gaming, trading and entrepreneurial workshops and masterclasses into an engaging experiential led event.  The first XR studio was launched in the Middle East, the Helicon Studio, producing over 17 shows in less than 3-days totalling over 30 hours of studio quality video content.  Key global experts and speakers included: Jordan Belfort, “The Real Wolf of Wall Street”; David Shing, Aka ‘Shingy’; Christopher Travers, Offbeat Media Group; Brett King, Neo Bank, Moven; Isaac Serwanga, Speaker and Author.

THE LAUNCH OF HELICONNFT

At Blockchain World Abu Dhabi we witnessed the launch of a new era of online and blockchain gaming, the launch of HeliconNFT.  Placing the power back into the hands of the gamer, HeliconNFT is a new vision of how a DeFi, NFT and gaming platform should be.  HeliconNFT is a new online universe, combining a gaming Metaverse with an NFT buying & trading platform that provides real rewards where you can play, mine and earn to become the master of a new market.  Alongside the platform launch was the launch of Helicon Studio and Helicon Media, new wave content and information outlets designed to provide exceptional quality viewer content alongside industry-leading experiences.

At the launch HeliconNFT announced global partnerships with UK-based Bad Fox Studios and Fundamentally Games, met as HeliconNFT held recent discussions with the UK’s gaming and interactive entertainment trade association Ukie, to provide custom gaming options for future players and integrate existing gaming greats into the platform.

BLOCKCHAIN AND THE FUTURE OF THE UAE

The UAE has always been a visionary throughout the last 50 years, driving innovation across both the region and the world.  Both Abu Dhabi and Dubai have been blockchain and fintech enthusiasts, aiming to save millions of hours of manpower whilst providing a more efficient, safer and greener form of government and administration, alongside providing key business drivers, such as the SCA and DWTCA agreement on crypto asset licensing, and investing in all things cryptoverse and metaverse.  Most recently, Mubadala Investment Company announced their interest in the crypto eco system, with CEO and Managing Director Khaldoon Al Mubarak stating an interview with CNBC, “I think it (crypto) is real. This is a business that had $200 billion worth of value two years ago, and is $2.5 trillion value today and growing. So while many people are sceptics, I do not fall in that category.”

Since 2013 when the “Smart Dubai Initiative” was first introduced by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai to transform Dubai into a smart city, his aim was to provide better quality of life to all by harnessing future tech, which we see now in the Dubai, Blockchain Strategy 2020 and Emirates Blockchain Strategy.

How Bitcoin Lotteries Work and Differ from Conventional Lotteries

Crypto Chain Wire

Published

on

The world of lottery just got an upgrade and it is global, secure, and powered by the future of finance: Bitcoin.

In this article, we dive into the exciting world of Bitcoin Lottery which offers a seamless and transparent experience. We will break down what Bitcoin lotteries are, how they work, and what sets them apart from your conventional lottery system.

What is a Bitcoin Lottery?

Bitcoin lotteries work like traditional lotteries but with a modern digital spin. Instead of using fiat currency, participants use cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin.

Here’s how it works: you buy a lottery ticket with cryptocurrency, choose your numbers, and wait for the draw. If your numbers match the drawn numbers, you win a prize – paid out in Bitcoin or other chosen cryptocurrencies.

What Makes Bitcoin Lottery Games Stand Out?

Here are the features that make Bitcoin lottery games a top choice for players.

  • Transparency and Fairness: One of the biggest advantages of the Bitcoin lottery is the use of blockchain technology. Blockchain ensures that every transaction and draw is recorded on a decentralized ledger that’s accessible to all players. This transparency eliminates worries about rigged results as players can verify each draw independently.
  • Security: Using cryptographic algorithms, Bitcoin lottery games offer extra security. The decentralized nature of blockchain means malicious actors can’t manipulate the results of the draws.
  • Global Accessibility: Unlike traditional lotteries which are limited by geographical boundaries, crypto lotteries are accessible from anywhere in the world. As long as you have an internet connection and a digital wallet, you can play. This global reach increases the player base and potentially the prize pool.

Regular Lotteries vs. Bitcoin Lotteries: A Comparison

1. The most obvious distinction is the utilized currency. Ordinary lotteries utilize fiat currency like dollars or euros, whereas a Bitcoin lottery uses Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies.

2. Transactions in Bitcoin lotteries are faster and may have lower fees than buying traditional lottery tickets. This is so because Bitcoin transactions eliminate intermediaries like banks, therefore lowering the delays and expenses related to bank fees and currency exchanges.

3. Prizes in Bitcoin lotteries are in BTC or other cryptocurrencies which can be attractive because of the potential for value growth. Certain Bitcoin lotteries also provide quick payouts, hence improving the convenience for the winners.

4. Bitcoin lotteries usually employ “provably fair” algorithms. Unlike other lotteries, this system lets players use cryptographic techniques to confirm the fairness of the draw outcomes.

Why should one try a Bitcoin Lottery?

Apart from the thrill of maybe winning large, crypto lotteries provide several special benefits:

• Safe and open: You can verify every single draw and transaction.

• There are no geographical restrictions; play wherever on the planet.

• Cut expenses by means of lower transaction fees.

• Instant Payouts: Get your winnings easily and quickly. 

Bottom Line

With improved security, transparency, and worldwide accessibility, a Bitcoin lottery presents a fascinating and creative variation of the classic lottery.

These lotteries are a reliable choice for gamers all around as they guarantee fair and clear results by integrating blockchain technology. Regardless of your experience level, Bitcoin lottery games provide a modern way to try your luck and potentially win big.
