CryptoLogic expands to Chinese Market.
The CryptoLogic Network has signed deals with Brilliance
Technology Co. and 568 Network Inc to help launch their
product to the Chinese market.
These three companies will launch a new Chinese company
which will help launch its products and services to the
Asian market. Their play for real money sites will be
licensed by the China Welfare Lottery, the nation’s top
gaming authority.
The company’s first plans are to develop more skill games
that are already known to the Asian culture. They will
introduce these games along with their existing casino and
poker products.
The Asian Market has a huge growth potential, the appetite
for online gaming is already quite strong. In China alone
there are 135 million internet users. This is the second
largest market behind only the United States.
The USA gambling market is facing many challenges as its
government has begun apparently shutting down gambling
related sites. It appears now that most sites are moving
east to obtain future growth.
This is great news for European clients. We all know that
the American poker boom helped keep the tables filled with
lots of fish. The China poker boom can provide us the same
experiences and the timing could not be better. The skill
of American players has increased greatly over the years
which have made the games more difficult to beat. With
sites bringing us whole new schools of fish the coming
years are looking more than promising.
