WPT Global launches Poker Hero Challenge
World Poker Tour Global (WPT Global) is launching its Poker Hero Challenge promotion today in partnership with the NFT studio Gamavrs. The promotion is giving away $20,000 in prize money and poker-themed NFT avatars (currently selling for around $450 on Opensea) that can be integrated directly into the WPT Global platform to unlock perks and access for holders.
WPT Global has recently launched its highly anticipated online poker platform to 85+ countries and is pushing the innovation envelope with this unique NFT integration. “We’re very excited to partner with WPT Global, who have embraced the power of the blockchain and NFTs for its highly-anticipated online poker platform,” said Meysam Moradpour, general manager of the Innovation Lab at Gamavrs’ parent company, A5 Labs. “Our Poker Heroes NFTs offer immutable transparency and elevated perks and access for players, which will hopefully elevate the already highly popular game of poker even further.”
