Abstract

Disclosed are casino gaming systems and methods for use of cryptocurrencies in player accounts. A casino gaming system includes one or more servers having an API service, a transfer wallet, a bridge service, a player's unified wallet, and a casino main wallet. The bridge service monitors the transfer wallet for cryptocurrency, transfers the cryptocurrency to the casino main wallet, computes a current cash value of the cryptocurrency, and deposits equivalent credits into the player's unified wallet. The cryptocurrency in the casino main wallet may be converted into a stablecoin. The credits deposited into the player's unified wallet may be denominated in a wrapped cryptocurrency. Loyalty credits may be converted into a merchant cryptocurrency stored on an enterprise blockchain shared among casino brands and merchants for redemption of goods or services.
