Esports Betting Gaining Ground

Esports is growing in popularity and people are taking it more seriously. These tournaments offer prize pools worth millions of dollars and are a testament to how lucrative and competitive the esports market is.

There are constantly more people participating in esports betting. MarketInsight Reports states that the global esports gambling market will grow at a rate of 13.1% between 2021 and 2025. The esports betting market is expected to reach $13.05 billion within three years.

The rapid growth of esports betting and the esports sector has been possible thanks to the use of advanced streaming technologies. Virtually all licensed, regulated sportsbooks permit their users to place real-money wagers on events such as the DreamHack Masters competition and League of Legends European Championship.

With the increased attention being given to esports betting, the ecosystem is going to evolve and start to offer more options to gamblers. Things like betting on pooled events, which Esports Technologies is already working on, will become more mainstream.
