Novomatic subsidiary Greentube has extended its partnership with cryptocurrency enabled gaming site CashBet Coin. Under the terms of the agreement, Greentube will allow payments in CashBets’s cryptocurrency CBC on its entire portfolio of over 400 online slots, casino, card games, and bingo content.
