On Friday, Virtue Gaming, a decentralized online poker platform built on the (ETH) blockchain, launched the first play-to-earn digital poker casino in the United States.
In the U.S., only six states (Nevada, Delaware, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Michigan) have legalized and currently regulate online poker. The country has been slow to act on the subject due to concerns that international poker platforms would take revenue away from domestic, land-based gambling venues. Moreover, even in the states listed, poker platforms must obtain licenses from each individual jurisdiction to operate.
