DigiByte Holdings Limited, a Hong Kong-based company focused on blockchain technology, has announced the addition of Counter Strike Global Offensive (CS:GO) to its online gaming platform – DigiByte Gaming – for beta testing.

Launched in November for beta testing, DigiByte Gaming is the first platform of its kind to begin ushering in the era of the Blockchain Attention economy through a disruptive and innovative approach to digital advertising powered by blockchain technology. It now has over 10,000 users and growing.

The gaming platform allows players to earn DigiBytes by playing the popular free-to-play online game League of Legends and now Counter Strike Global Offensive. It has recently received approval by Riot Games for advanced API access to the League of Legends platform to scale the service of the platform for millions of more users.

Players get rewards on the basis of their game performance with DigiBytes sent directly to their DigiByte Gaming wallet. DigiByte (DGB) is a decentralized payment network & digital currency, inspired by Bitcoin. It allows moving money over the internet similar to PayPal & Western Union but with many improvements, including lightning fast transactions with minimal or no fees.

Advertisers can sponsor the DigiBytes paid out through the gaming platform and achieve full engagement with the “hard to reach” millennial demographic. Players can use DigiBytes to purchase real world goods through the DigiByte Market and other retailer destinations or they can tip each other across social media including Twitter.com and Twitch.tv as well as other networks.

DigiByte Gaming plans on adding several additional features in the future including more connected games, a blockchain based Gamer ID for authentication of users and an API for gaming developers to help monetize their games.

DigiByte Holdings aims to establish a global payments and security platform operating on decentralized DigiByte blockchain technology.
