Catenaa, Tuesday, April 14, 2026-Playnance, a Web3 entertainment infrastructure company, is bringing global sports and esports fully on-chain, enabling access to more than 2.5 million live events annually.

The expansion is powered by its $GCOIN token and integrates with SOFTSWISS Sportsbook, allowing users to engage with major leagues such as the NBA, Premier League, LaLiga, and international esports tournaments, as well as regional and niche sports events.

The platform will launch next week on PlayW3 and roll out across other Playnance ecosystem platforms, supporting seamless, gasless on-chain participation. Users can predict outcomes, stake $GCOIN, and receive protocol-based rewards, creating high-frequency engagement tied directly to real-world events. Playnance operates fully on a decentralized, non-custodial infrastructure, maintaining transparency and ownership for participants while processing over 2 million on-chain transactions daily.

CEO Pini Peter said the initiative represents a major shift in digital entertainment, bringing real-world sports and esports into a scalable on-chain ecosystem. A dedicated sports staking program allows users to lock $GCOIN within the sports ecosystem, increasing utility and incentivizing active participation.

The $150+ billion global sports and esports betting market represents significant growth potential. By bridging Web2 experiences with Web3 execution, Playnance lowers barriers for mainstream adoption while delivering real-time, decentralized gaming infrastructure.

SOFTSWISS highlighted that the integration enables high-frequency, fully on-chain experiences, combining live data with decentralized execution, unlocking unprecedented scale, transparency, and performance.

Playnance’s broader ecosystem already includes over 10,000 social casino games and AI-driven prediction markets, with $GCOIN serving as the primary utility token. Early adoption has shown strong demand, with more than 1.4 billion $GCOIN staked shortly after the launch of staking programs. The company aims to scale global adoption, enhance real-time participation, and expand $GCOIN utility further across its ecosystem.

Founded in 2020, Playnance develops live, non-custodial, on-chain platforms designed to simplify blockchain engagement for mainstream users. Its infrastructure emphasizes shared wallets, high-volume on-chain execution, and frictionless Web3 onboarding.
