Virtus.pro is the next esports organisation to partner with ByBit

This follows a similar deal being signed with Navi and Astralis.
Ben Lyons Senior Editor 26 augustus 2021

The cryptocurrency platform ByBit has been on a bit of a spree recently, signing long-term partnership deals with Astralis and Navi, but despite already working with two esports organisations, the platform is adding yet another: Virtus.pro.

The deal, alike the others, will be for three years, and will see ByBit becoming the cryptocurrency platform and NFT partner for the team. This deal will also include ByBit's logo featuring on V.P's jerseys, and will also see the team's players competing in the World Series of Trading 2021 tournament.

"Both digital financial assets and esports are relatively new industries," said Sergey Glamazda, CEO of Virtus.pro. "Despite their fast growth and the fact that everyone is talking about it, a lot of people may still find it complicated and not easy to understand. That is where our goals with Bybit are aligned: we are constantly improving and trying to make what we do best as simple as possible to understand for the audience. We are delighted to have Bybit joining esports with their large-scale projects and proud to be their partners in Russia!"

There's no mention as to the value of the deal.
