Cites Yahu Blackwell, "My team and I are ecstatic about this launch. We originally planned this as a fighting game app, but I'm always looking for and reaching to the next frontier. Cryptocurrency is the next frontier and merging our game into that space seemed like a perfect marriage. So, we delayed our original launch and went back to the drawing board. I'm now offering gamers a unique opportunity to not only fight in a virtual boxing ring but to also explore this new realm of digital currency. What Madden did for the game industry is what Crypto Boxers is going to do for cryptocurrency."

Andrew Gilliam, Blackwell's manager and consultant also offers, "Crypto Boxers is the next logical step up over PlayStation. The game allows the player the opportunity to not only compete, but to also earn money upon winning. The game's virtual boxers will not only battle in virtual reality matches, but they will also earn digital rewards for their wins!"

"This game will be the closest thing to getting in an actual ring with your gloves on!" cites referee Joe Cortez. "You think you got what it takes to be a professional boxer? You think you can beat enough opponents to earn your way to a title? Then bring it to Crypto Boxers!"
