What is Polker.game?

Polker.game has just announced their Play-to-Earn poker platform, a unique and impressive online gaming experience utilizing Unreal Engine 4. The game is available for absolutely anyone to play, for those looking to play a couple of quick hands at a table without wagering any money – then the game is available completely free.

Polker.game claims that their focus has always been on community, transparency, fairness, and also on creating a good game – and they have certainly been successful in all aspects with this release. The game focuses on Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) and in-game upgrades which become available by winning more hands within the Polker platform. NFTs have been the biggest trend within the blockchain industry so far in 2021, and blockchain gaming is forecasted to be the next. With Polker integrating NFTs and blockchain gaming into its impressive gaming platform it really does seem set to be the next big thing.

PKR & Polker.Game

PKR is the native token of Polker.game and can be used to purchase NFTs, gaming assets like cosmetics, and can be staked with an impressive APR (Forecast of 15% as of August 2021). PKR isn't required to play Polker due to the play-to-earn nature of the game, however, the token will create a large part of the ecosystem and metaverse in the future.

PKR is cross-chain compatible and currently available on Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain, and Tron – with Polygon bridge coming soon too.

PKR listing on BitMart

Until now PKR has been available on multiple decentralized exchanges (DEX) – including UniSwap and PancakeSwap. Although the DeFi has increased in use massively over the past few years it is still an area that many investors and cryptocurrency users are unfamiliar with. Polker.game is now listed and live on BitMart – a popular and traditional centralized exchange (CEX).

To celebrate the BitMart listing Polker is offering a generous giveaway of 500,000 PKR. The giveaway will be in the form of a trading competition and more details can be found on the BitMart exchange for anyone who wants part of the giveaway fund.

The future of Polker.game?

Polker is also only part of the PKR ecosystem, with pkr.io displaying a huge amount of new development and innovation in addition to Polker. With the massive shoutout from Akon and their recent listing of the on BitMart, Polker.game is sure to be making waves within the blockchain gaming and NFT communities.
