About BetHog
BetHog is a crypto casino and sportsbook taking direct deposits in nine major crypto assets with no platform fee: it aggregates more than three thousand slots and live tables, adds original provably fair games and an AI dealer, and tracks play through a points system under an Anjouan licence.
It targets mandatory identity checks, slow withdrawals and platform-held balances in traditional betting, replacing account balances with self-custody deposits and on-chain settlement. On 23 July 2026 it announced shutdown, betting and games stopped on 30 and 31 July, and 31 August was the last day for normal login and withdrawal, after which balances can only be claimed by email. The licence expired on 6 June and was removed from the register on 15 September, and the domain now shows a security block page.
In early 2024, BetHog was founded by Nigel Eccles and Rob Jones, the former co-founders of FanDuel.
In November 2024, BetHog launched its beta version and secured $6 million in seed funding led by 6MV.
In October 2025, BetHog launched its proprietary AI dealer Sunny, which became the highest-turnover game on the platform.
In April 2026, BetHog raised $10 million in Series A financing co-led by Will Ventures and RockawayX, bringing the total funding to $16 million, and launched Sentient Studios.
In July 2026, BetHog announced the shutdown of its crypto casino and sportsbook platform effective July 31, 2026, with all product and engineering team members transitioning to Sentient Studios.
BetHog closed an €8.5M (~$10M) Series A in 2026, led by Will Ventures and RockawayX.
BetHog's B2B brand Sentient Studios launched an AI live-dealer solution on April 22, 2026; the consumer-facing platform was shut down on July 30.
BetHog's forward strategy shifts to B2B gaming infrastructure, with plans to license the AI dealer and compliant settlement modules to more operators and expand into regulated markets.
