By streaming the 24/7 live channel, THETA.tv introduces WPT as the first major content partner outside of the Esports category, featuring a genre that fits THETA.tv’s global audience extremely well. The partnership reflects THETA.tv’s plans to broaden its content portfolio and offer its users with relevant, meaningful programming outside of traditional esports content. For the first time, users can earn TFUEL token rewards for sharing their excess bandwidth while watching premium WPT poker content. Theta blockchain’s innovative approach to user rewards drives higher engagement and user retention, while sharing the benefits with viewers who can earn as much as $15/month just for watching.
