Sportsbet.io Community Announcement
We are excited to announce an initiative between premier cryptocurrency sportsbook SportsBet.io (official partners of English Premier League team Newcastle United) and ZED RUN, opening ZED RUN races up to be wagered on by people around the world!
In short, what that means for our community is that odds will be available through Sportsbet.io’s platform!
When?
Sportbet.io is planning a soft launch this week, which will be communicated to our community once live. If there are any changes to this schedule, we will let you know! Furthermore, as we head into the new year, Sportsbet.io will more aggressively promote this to their existing customer base.
How It Works
The initiative will combine ZED RUN's virtual horse racing experience with SportsBet.io's sports betting technology to create a product where eligible participants can wager on live racing.
Initially, Sportsbet.io will provide fixed odds on all 12 gate, paid races. Users, even those not signed in, can view these odds on Sportsbet.io.
We are also exploring ways to archive the races that have odds on third-party sites, meaning, historic Sportbets.io odds will be made available. This is the first step in providing a more layered wagering experience through our partners.
What Is Being Provided to Sportsbet.io
The information being received by Sportsbet.io will include:
- Bloodline, Breedtype and Genotype
- Level
- Win rate
- Place rate
- Total races
- Career performance
- Class
- Coat colour
- Racehorse name
- Stable name
It’s important to note that we aim to assist Sportsbet.io in making the wagering experience more fun by providing more detailed data.
Where is Sportsbet.io available?
We understand that placing a bet on Sportsbet.io may not be available in your region, however, you will still be able to access all the information (i.e. the ‘odds’) on their website so no one is disadvantaged.
Moving forward
The overarching intent of this initiative with Sportsbet.io is to further strengthen ZED RUN as an emerging virtual sports and NFT product, attract more stable owners to the community, show our commitment to innovation and demonstrate our ability to work with some of the biggest brands in our space.
Whilst ZED RUN is still evolving as a product, our number one priority remains - making the core game fun, engaging and ultimately bringing back the magic. We are tirelessly working towards this and will update the community when we have solidified our 2024 roadmap.
We know you may have many more questions, so we’ve prepared some FAQs explaining how it will work. Head to the Guide for more detail: https://guide.zed.run/zed-run-guide/frequently-asked-questions/exciting-news-sportsbet.io-and-zed-run-initiative-announced
