BetHog, a new cryptocurrency casino and sportsbook, has launched with $6m in seed funding.
The funding is led by 6MV with participation from Will Ventures, Bullpen Capital, Karatage, Advancit Capital and several angel investors including Chris Grove, Partner Emeritus at Eilers & Krejcik, and Josh Hannah, co-founder of Flutter Entertainment.
Founded by serial tech entrepreneurs and co-founders of sportsbook FanDuel, Nigel Eccles and Rob Jones, BetHog is underpinned by decades of experience and trust.
The platform has emerged from private alpha with a variety of casino games, including exclusive BetHog Originals and fan favourites from popular studios such as Pragmatic and Evolution.
Borrowing from the team’s vast experience of building consumer entertainment products, the BetHog Originals include innovative variants of crash and mines and a completely new approach to player versus player games.
These games include a first-of-its-kind feature that allows consumers to play alongside their favourite streamers.
