FACEIT and WhiteBIT Launches $1M USDT Community Clash Tournament
FACEIT, the leading competitive platform for online multiplayer games with over 27 million users, have announced the next phase of their partnership with WhiteBIT, a leading cryptocurrency exchange, with the launch of the WhiteBIT Community Clash – the biggest CS:GO matchmaking event to date.
FACEIT players and fans are invited to join one of the 60+ largest EU and South America streamers and pro team Clans to compete for a portion of the $1m USDT prize pool, 100 million FACEIT points and a chance to make it to the live finals at Dreamhack Valencia in Spain on 9th – 11th December 2022. Clans are digital communities on FACEIT, created so players can find like-minded individuals to compete with. Clans can consist of hundreds to thousands of members.
Starting November 15th, players prove their mettle by picking a Clan and participating in matches to earn points. The more members, wins and points, the more your Clan has a chance to make it to the finals. At the end of the first phase, the bottom ten Clans are eliminated. The remaining Clans will compete to make it to the Playoffs based on rankings in a single-elimination, best of 3 tournament. Clan leaders will select four players and two substitutes to represent the team at the Quarter Finals and Semi Finals in Dreamhack Valencia. The Finals will see the top 2 Clans from each region go head to head at the event, where they will compete on stage for $1M USDT. Uniquely, all of the members of the winning Clan will receive a portion of the prize pool.
In February 2022, FACEIT and WhiteBIT laid the foundation of the partnership by creating new opportunities for gamers with highly engaging competitions and substantial cryptocurrency rewards. FACEIT users can already take part in dedicated WhiteBIT missions and tournaments on the platform and win rewards which they are able to redeem in the cryptocurrency of their choice through the WhiteBIT platform. The Community Clash unlocks the next chapter in the partnership, by introducing gamers to a groundbreaking competition format, backed by the biggest personalities in esports, and an unprecedented level of rewards to cement the commitment WhiteBIT has to esports.
Volodymyr Nosov, CEO of WhiteBIT commented: “WhiteBIT has always been about pioneers who explore new levels of experience. That is the theme of today’s announcement we are making with our friends from FACEIT. Together, we plan to present an upgraded gaming experience on their platform. Thousands of players from all over the world fighting for a prize fund that rivals Tier-1 tournament rewards, doesn’t it sound amazing? And this is just the first of the many steps we will take together going forward.”
President of Digital Platform at ESL FACEIT Group, Fabio Floris commented: “We’re very excited to announce our new community offering together with WhiteBIT. The tournament is designed to bring together the CS:GO community and give every player an opportunity to compete on a global scale in a brand new engaging way. It’s been fantastic to offer such a big incentive for players through our partner WhiteBIT, who have truly understood the need for innovative gaming experiences, and to have an array of big name streamers from CS:GO lead the charge to unite players.”

Jackpot.com Launches in Colorado Providing Consumers Mobile Lottery Access Across the Centennial State
Today, Jackpot.com, the online platform and app that allows individuals to safely and securely order official state lottery tickets and scratchers from their mobile phone and other devices, announced its launch in Colorado. On the heels of the Colorado Lottery’s 40th anniversary last year, the Centennial State will feature both draw games and Scratchers (digital scratch off games).
With Jackpot.com, Colorado players can instantly buy tickets for nationwide games such as Mega Millions and Powerball, as well as their favorite state lottery games, including Cash 5, Pick 3, Lucky 4 Life, and more. The innovative platform purchases tickets on behalf of its customers from an official state lottery retailer, displaying a scan of their ticket and transferring winnings under $600 in real-time to their account. For prizes greater than $600, Jackpot.com securely delivers the ticket to the winning player so they can collect the winnings from the Colorado Lottery.
“At Jackpot.com, we remain committed to growing the safe and secure access to the lottery across the country and we could not be more excited to add Colorado as our seventh state,” said Jackpot.com CEO and co-founder, Akshay Khanna. “Last year, the Colorado Lottery reached $4 billion in proceeds and they give back millions of dollars each year to state parks, schools, and various projects. They’re also notably invested in responsible gaming, which has been a staple at Jackpot.com since its inception. We can’t wait to become part of the Colorado community and provide an accessible and reliable lottery experience for players.”
Not only will Colorado residents have access to their favorite state lottery games, they’ll also have access to Scratchers – the digital scratch ticket offering focused on expediting the convenience and the processing times of scratch-off games. Jackpot.com will launch with five of the most popular scratchers in Colorado, including $3,000,000 Supreme, Casino Ca$h Chips, $250,000 ORO, and more. Customers simply have to “scratch” their device screen with their finger or mouse to reveal their scanned ticket and potential winnings. Jackpot.com delivers the industry’s fastest online lottery scratch card experience after undergoing a comprehensive business process review by Gaming Laboratories International (GLI), which ensures its method for ordering and processing lottery scratch tickets is accurate and functions as expected for both Jackpot.com and the player.
This year marks the Colorado Lottery’s fourth consecutive year generating a new sales record, amassing over $900 million in revenue. This year’s success translates to more than $196 million in funds allocated to beneficiaries throughout the state. Since its first ticket sale in 1983, the Lottery has allocated over $4.2 billion to good causes across the state.
Jackpot.com has continued to raise the bar for responsible gaming through the integration of modern conveniences and safety guardrails, one of the key distinctive features of digital lottery platforms. The company has significantly invested in responsible gaming protections by allowing customers to set spend limits, setting default limits on daily deposits, providing access to local and national responsible gambling resources, self-exclusion, self-suspension and automated notifications that offer help should problematic behavior be detected. Jackpot.com is the only lottery courier service to launch with iCap certification from the National Council on Problem Gambling.
