# Esports Betting

The esports betting industry is growing rapidly with $23.5 Billion USD wagered in 2020, up 7,400% from $315 million USD in 2015.

The most popular esports in terms of betting volume are: League of Legends - 38%, GS:GO 29% & Dota 2 - 18%.

A target on esports is not just about the significant betting market opportunity but also to tap into their massive community. The total viewership of esports topped 495 million in 2020 and will be an avenue to create exponential growth for the BETU token.

BetU plans to be involved in and sponsor large esports competitions and tournaments.
