XYZVerse has announced the launch of a blockchain-powered Counter-Strike 2 (CS2) tournament with a prize pool of $5.5 million, combining cash and $XYZ tokens. The initiative is part of a broader strategy to raise $22 million through a presale, with over $15 million already secured. The tournament will feature 10 teams and integrate on-chain voting, prediction, and reward systems for fans and token holders. The $XYZ token will serve as the backbone of the ecosystem, providing access to events, voting rights, and rewards. With CS2's daily player base of approximately 1.4 million, XYZVerse aims to enhance transparency and fan engagement in esports through blockchain technology. Analysts anticipate potential price growth for $XYZ following the tournament's launch in 2026.
