The World Cup final game, which will take place today in Russia, will see France and Croatia playing for the most prestigious title in football around the world. According to some reports, this event is already breaking viewing records.
The last World Cup in 2014 (Brazil) was watched by almost 3.2 billion people. This year, it is expected for more than 4 billion people to tune – especially because the world’s population has grown by almost half a billion since then.
This also makes the gambling potential more interesting, especially for fans who would like to predict the outcome and the winner of this clash. For the first time ever, this year world cup gambling is expected to make a profit of more than $36 billion.
Even though most of these profits will be gathered in fiat currencies, gambling with crypto is another interesting concept. One platform that is live and accepting bets in cryptocurrency for the final is CryptoBets – allowing users to place bets in Ethereum on big events like today’s final.
There is no complex ICO, no tokens to buy (other than Ethereum) and a simple smart contract that checks the site www.football-data.org to decide a winner.
And the best part?
Today’s bet on the World Cup 2018 Final in Russia will feature a 0% commission – meaning that there will be no bookies – and only users betting against other users. According to many, this is the first time that crypto fans can gain maximum winnings.
The World Cup 2018 Final between France and Croatia is scheduled for 5:00 PM Central European Time (CET) and will take place at the Luzhniki Stadium in Russia’s capital, Moscow. For more info on the time zone and kick-off times, visit this link.
