📱 Mobile SNG Alpha Test
On Tuesday, we ran our first mobile SNG alpha test!
SNG Tournament on ICE Poker Flex (Mobile)
Overall the test went smooth. We had six SNG tournaments running at once. There are a couple of new bugs to fix, but no major hiccups.
We'll be running a few more alpha tests before opening it up for our beta test. Want to be a beta tester? Sign up for the ICE Poker Mobile waitlist.
We’re still targeting mid-August to launch SNG on mobile. Stay tuned for SNG explainer articles as we lead up to the launch.
💎 ICE Listed on BitMart
ICE is now listed on BitMart with trading supported in ICE/USDT.
This marks ICE’s second centralized exchange listing — adding another fiat on-ramp to onboard new players as we launch and scale SNG tournaments.

👩💻 Macro Hackathons
Decentral Games is sponsoring Macro Hackathons, the first hackathon focused solely on furthering the NFT financialization space.
Macro Hackathons
We’re only scratching the surface of what’s possible with NFTs. This hackathon aims to accelerate experimentation and surface the next generation of protocols that enhance the productivity, utility, and financial use cases for NFTs.
The hackathon will take place in their Discord from August 16th to August 30th. To learn more and register, check out the Macro Hackathon website.
