BC.GAME Launches RIO Carnival Competition with $1.2M Prize Pool
BC.GAME has teamed up with its new ambassador, Brazilian professional footballer David Luiz, to bring RIO Carnival to crypto casino players. A $1.2 million prize pool is up for grabs together with weekly cash prizes in the major gaming event.
RIO Carnival grants players the chance to earn RIO coins in order to win shares from the event’s $1.2M prize pool. RIO coins are an exclusive coin minted for the BC.GAME carnival event and can be primarily earned by making deposits or wagers within the specified period.
Coco, the mascot of BC.GAME shares, said: “Good times are ahead for our crypto casino community. RIO Carnival is just the start of more gaming and gambling opportunities that we’ve prepared for 2023. It’s time to broaden your horizons in the world of gaming where you can enjoy both rewards and gambling experience.”
Every $1 deposited grants 1 RIO coin and all deposits must be wagered to obtain the corresponding RIO coins. Earning more coins offers players a bigger share in the event’s prize pool. Players may also collect RIO coins through other means, such as daily logins and inviting friends to join the contest. The event runs from February 17 to March 16.
Players can also use their accumulated RIO coins to redeem weekly cash prizes for BC Dollars (BCD), where 1 BCD is equivalent to 1 USD. More details on the conversion are accessible through the RIO Carnival page.
RIO coins exchanged for BCD will be immediately burned upon redemption. If players want to win bigger prizes, they have the option to hold out for a chance to win a share of the $1.2M prize pool. The weekly redeemable prizes are refreshed every Friday at 00:00 AM UTC+0 throughout the event, allowing players to win up to $600 every week until RIO Carnival officially ends.
