Atari Partners with Litecoin Foundation

Atari, the arcade games creator and home video game consoles pioneer, announced today a new partnership with Litecoin Foundation to include the use of Litecoin across gaming platforms within the Atari ecosystem, along with other potential ventures, such as joint merchandising.

Litecoin will be used to purchase the new Atari VCS game console at a discount. Atari VCS (codename Ataribox) is an upcoming home video game console produced by Atari SA.

It is great to see Litecoin being used in a variety of different ways within the Atari ecosystem, from purchasing the new Atari VCS gaming console to being used as a way to invest in Atari Tokens. The Litecoin Foundation is excited to see the possibilities a partnership like this can have for not only Litecoin and cryptocurrencies but also the gaming industry and lifelong fans of Atari.

said Charlie Lee, Managing Director of the Litecoin Foundation

Last week, Atari signed another partnership with Arkane Network to Integrate the Atari Token Across digital entertainment ecosystem.

The Atari Token is issued by Atari Chain, Ltd (Gibraltar), a company equally owned by Atari and the ICICB Group. Arkane, a blockchain platform for game developers to create, secure, and monetize their digital game assets, will support the Atari Token, making it so developers can use the Atari Token as in-game currency for buying, selling, and trading assets.
