📈 GambleFi Tokens in the Last 7 Days

After a tough week marked by widespread crypto dips, GambleFi is once again aligning with the broader market recovery, with most tokens up by 5-15%.

A series of positive developments for RLB has the potential to boost investor confidence. In addition to the $RLB halving, Rollbit UK has been launched, the company has become the official front-of-shirt partner of Southampton FC, and 15 Solana SPL tokens have been integrated.

$CROWN has rebounded, up 10%. For those new to PFL, this is an excellent thread to follow, along with updates expected in Season 18.

Wicked Bet continues to show strong token growth, following its most recent bimonthly record-breaking statistics. $WIK has surged 50% since last week. Recent news includes new burning mechanisms and a targeted launch for the Chinese market. The next bimonthly results and staking distribution are scheduled for the coming days.

Shuffle released details this week about their second airdrop, set for December. Users who wager with SHFL will receive the highest rewards. However, details regarding the upcoming lottery remain sparse—users can stake their SHFL for a chance to win weekly USDC rewards.

🐐 Goated sign up Solana streamers

True differentiation in this space comes from effective marketing, distribution strategies, and retention.

I have been impressed with Goated’s rapid onboarding of streamers, who are stalwarts of Solana.

Goated’s foundational audience lies within the Solana ecosystem, where the token and NFT collection will also be based.

These streamers are well-known personalities in this ecosystem. Most importantly, they have an engaged audience and are likely to bring a strong return on investment for Goated.

Reflecting on my previous thread about Goated, I believe their growing roster of streamers and well-known personalities within Solana will help foster a key part of their proposition—SocialFi within GambleFi..
