EDGE Boost Introduces Compliant Crypto-to-USD Conversion for Legal U.S. Gaming Deposits

EDGE Boost by EDGE Markets announced it is now allowing crypto-to-USD conversion into its deposit accounts for legal U.S. gaming and betting purposes. The banking solution, designed to promote responsible gaming, will initially support ETH, BTC, and stablecoins at launch, describing these as the most transparent and well-regulated tokens that provide more auditable fund flows compared to cash.

The new funding option expands access to players’ own funds outside traditional banking hours, offering what the company describes as a safer alternative to high-fee credit card advances. By supporting only regulated tokens through approved exchange partners without directly holding cryptocurrency, EDGE Boost maintains compliance while providing additional financial flexibility for users engaged in legal gaming activities.

This development represents a significant step in bridging cryptocurrency with regulated financial services for the gaming industry. According to the announcement, providing a regulated crypto onramp reduces the appeal of offshore and illegal gaming markets while expanding the platform’s reach to new users and markets. The company positions this as part of its broader mission to support responsible gaming behavior through financial segmentation and specialized tools.

EDGE Boost operates as a neutral third party that provides bettors with a holistic view of their financial betting data. The platform offers custom tools including personalized spending limitations and cashback incentives designed to help users maintain responsible gambling practices. As an ally member of the American Gaming Association, the company emphasizes its commitment to industry standards and consumer protection.

The deposit checking accounts are held with Cross River Bank, Member FDIC, with the EDGE Boost Visa Debit Card issued by the same institution. The platform’s terms and conditions are detailed in their Terms of Service and Cardholder Agreement, which outline the specific regulations governing the service. This integration of cryptocurrency conversion within a regulated banking framework represents a notable development in financial services for the legal gaming sector, potentially influencing how digital assets interact with traditional financial systems in regulated industries.

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The post The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Visions of future technology are often prescient about the broad strokes while flubbing the details. The tablets in “2001: A Space Odyssey” do indeed look like iPads, but you never see the astronauts paying for subscriptions or wasting hours on Candy Crush.  Channel factories are one vision that arose early in the history of the Lightning Network to address some challenges that Lightning has faced from the beginning. Despite having grown to become Bitcoin’s most successful layer-2 scaling solution, with instant and low-fee payments, Lightning’s scale is limited by its reliance on payment channels. Although Lightning shifts most transactions off-chain, each payment channel still requires an on-chain transaction to open and (usually) another to close. As adoption grows, pressure on the blockchain grows with it. The need for a more scalable approach to managing channels is clear. Channel factories were supposed to meet this need, but where are they? In 2025, subnetworks are emerging that revive the impetus of channel factories with some new details that vastly increase their potential. They are natively interoperable with Lightning and achieve greater scale by allowing a group of participants to open a shared multisig UTXO and create multiple bilateral channels, which reduces the number of on-chain transactions and improves capital efficiency. Achieving greater scale by reducing complexity, Ark and Spark perform the same function as traditional channel factories with new designs and additional capabilities based on shared UTXOs.  Channel Factories 101 Channel factories have been around since the inception of Lightning. A factory is a multiparty contract where multiple users (not just two, as in a Dryja-Poon channel) cooperatively lock funds in a single multisig UTXO. They can open, close and update channels off-chain without updating the blockchain for each operation. Only when participants leave or the factory dissolves is an on-chain transaction…
