One reason behind Atari’s decision to use cryptocurrency as a betting medium is because the currency does not have the same local restrictions that are usually associated with a casino. Further, because of the volatility of cryptocurrency, Atari says that this also enables faster payouts and even bigger betting limits. If betting with cryptocurrency isn’t your clique, players can also make bets using Atari Tokens. As per the platform’s official page, visitors will be treated to an array of standard casino games, slots and jackpots, and even live casino games. Where players will get to chat with other players on the virtual table in real-time. To that end, all casino tables will be virtually manned by live staff.
Despite the announcement, Atari did not specify when exactly its virtual casino will be open, only that it would be soon. Hopefully, the service will be open before the company’s VCS console ships out. (Source: Atari Casino, Hot Hardware)
