QTech Games unveils new cryptocurrency currency feature for its games
Leading distributor continues its breakthrough work with crypto to underpin more games for clients across emerging markets
QTech Games, the leading games distributor across Asia and emerging markets, has unveiled its latest upgraded cryptocurrency tool kit which supports a unique crypto-to-game currency feature.
The leading platform is now able to arm its partners and their players with all the inherent crypto benefits of lower transaction costs and faster withdrawals across a wide variety of cryptocurrencies, including but not limited to: BTC (Bitcoin), ETH (Ethereum), XRP (Ripple), LTC (Litecoin), BCH (Bitcoin Cash), USDC and DAI. These cryptocurrencies, attended by a widening range of stablecoins, alt-coins and even virtual tokens, will attract and empower a host of new players who hold and want to play in these popular alternatives to fiat, underpinned by a responsive real-time exchange mechanism.
Accordingly, players can now both keep their wallet in cryptocurrency, and also play in traditional fiat money. As a result, most games on the QTech platform are now available for play, not only those games which support crypto.
The move tracks surging underlying demand and a buoyant atmosphere in the crypto community, whose optimistic outlook has been bolstered by further recent gains. Indeed, QTech clients are now finding that those crypto customers who have accrued capital gains are more eager to take chances across the gaming verticals.
QTech Games’ backend that provides operators with the ability to manage player registrations, payments, promotions, marketing, and other key functions, is supported by one of the strongest technical teams in the industry, making the back-office a scalable tool which grows with the operator.
Ulf Norder, CCO at QTech Games, said: “This is a timely crypto-to-game currency innovation, including the possibility to create virtual currencies as well. It’s essentially two features in one: players can deposit into their wallets as normal, convert their balance into any currency (coin, token, or play games which aren’t bespoke crypto games) and then play as usual, safeguarded by our unique real-time exchange mechanism.
“The gambling industry was one of the original pioneers in the use of crypto, and opportunities still abound, both for our partners and their players. By this, I naturally refer to the recognized advantages around speed and security, but also the savings our clients can then pass on to the consumer for a better experience all round. Players can benefit from fairer margins compared to fiat-money operators, who have to pay substantial costs for conventional payment-processing and chargebacks. On sportsbook, that might mean better margins – or, on casino, better promotions. Everyone benefits.
“As the leading distributor across developing territories, we want to help educate our partners, improve adoption rates, and unpack the day-to-day needs of the customer, so we can service them. They want speed, flatter learning curves, and tighter security. As a result, we’re now giving it to them. It’s as straightforward as that.
“Our commitment to rolling out high-quality content remains undimmed, but crypto is a progressive ally in driving revenue for our partners. So, it’s a real thrill to partner with more and more ambitious digital casinos, who are looking to disrupt the space through cryptocurrency innovation, underscored by QTech’s quality product line. This is just the beginning.
“Of course, none of this means going all-in and converting everything into blockchain. But an edge and an understanding can be secured by simply integrating crypto as a new payments pathway. Ultimately, every scarce asset will be “blockchain-ified” – be it a stock, a fungible dollar or a non-fungible token (NFT). It all goes on chain and can take traditional banks and charges out of the equation. Blockchains are radically egalitarian because every user becomes a root user.”
Max Level will work closely with Riot’s India and South Asia teams to amplify brand campaigns, regional esports initiatives, product updates, and community-first storytelling in India, Bangladesh, Nepal, and other South Asian markets. The collaboration aims to build authentic, culturally resonant narratives that reflect Riot’s mission as a player-focused organisation.
The win follows a competitive multi-agency pitch process that saw Max Level selected from among several top PR agencies. The decision was based on Max Level’s deep understanding of the gaming and esports audience, its creative-first approach, and its proven ability to drive conversation and cultural relevance.
Siddharth Nayyar, Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer at Max Level, said, “Winning the PR mandate for Riot Games is a defining moment for us. Riot has not only shaped the modern multiplayer era but also built global communities around player-first values. We’re thrilled to help expand that legacy in India and South Asia, a region that’s growing and evolving at a breakneck pace.”
Max Level’s mandate includes ongoing campaign support for key products and IPs, regional amplification of Riot’s global esports events, as well as strategic counsel on community engagement and creator collaborations. The agency’s track record with brands like NODWIN Gaming, SuperGaming, CyberPowerPC India, KRAFTON, ESL FACEIT Group among others makes it uniquely positioned to drive culturally relevant PR in gaming and esports.
According to the Lumikai State of India Gaming Report 2024, India’s gaming market reached $3.1 billion in FY23, with projections to hit $7.5 billion by FY28, fueled by a base of over 568 million gamers, nearly half of whom are paying users. The report also highlights how India is now the largest consumer of mobile games globally, creating an immense opportunity for publishers like Riot to scale their reach and community.

Our participation in the previous 2 editions was very fruitful, having brought us many valuable new contacts and the opportunity to present our high-potential products to the key players in the local markets. I believe that our performance in 2025 will be the same, and it may even be better.
