We’re excited to announce today that we’ve closed a strategic funding round from some of the top investors in the crypto space!

The financing was led by crypto venture fund Draper Dragon with participation from CMCC Global, CMS Holdings, and several angel investors.

SX Network is on a mission to eliminate the vig in sports betting while also drastically increasing fairness and transparency by using the power of the blockchain. SX is the most transparent and fair sports betting platform ever created. Every single bet on SX is posted on-chain, creating a verifiable and tamper-proof permanent record on the SX Network blockchain.

This has enabled SX Bet to become the largest on-chain GambleFi project in the world, recently surpassing $432m in total betting volume, roughly 10x the next closest competitor. But, SX Bet is relatively unknown in the broader web3 world as it’s core user base is professional, non-crypto native sports bettors that just care about getting better odds.

However, this is all about to change dramatically.

SX Bet will be launching its application cross-chain on some of the most exciting blockchains in 2024, starting with it’s launch on Arbitrum in the upcoming weeks. This will make SX the first ever cross-chain betting application, and enable SX to tap into the much larger crypto-native audiences that already exist on other chains. Each cross-chain launch will be accompanied with massive betdrops to new and existing users to further spur adoption.

SX is extremely excited to launch on 🐻 Berachain 🐻 (ooga booga) when it goes live and is planning to be a day one dapp there. SX is also exploring launching on the hyper-scalable Monad blockchain in the second half of the year.

Andrew Young, Project Lead at SX Network, says:

“We’re excited to bring on these new partners just as we’re getting ready to launch the world’s first ever cross-chain betting platform. Bringing on this new round of funding along with these new high-quality investors positions SX well to become the global hub of sports betting liquidity and expand our lead in the web3 betting space.”
