Per Virtue Poker CEO Ryan Gittleson, said: “Virtue Poker is excited to take this next step to drive awareness and adoption of the world’s first blockchain-based P2P poker platform. Through our partnership with SuperStarter and the execution of our Celebrity Poker Charity event, Virtue Poker will be able to grow our community’s foundation as well as showcase the platform to a broad audience.”

Hall of Famer and Virtue Poker Team Pro Phil Ivey, added: “After working with the Virtue Poker team for over 3 years. I’m excited to see the platform launch and be part of their first live stream event on this innovative platform.”

Virtue Poker is a ConsenSys-incubated poker platform that delivers provably fair poker on the blockchain. The company is licensed and regulated by the Malta Gaming Authority and never has custody of players’ funds. Following a successful investment round in April to the tune of $5 million, Virtue Poker is now approaching its upcoming Initial Dex Offering (IDO) to be held on SuperFarm’s SuperStarter launchpad in May 28th that will coincide with Virtue Poker’s real-money launch. The ongoing tie-up with SuperFarm will play an instrumental role in the NFTs set to be featured and given away during the charity tournament.
