As the iconic Kentucky Derby gears up for its 150th anniversary on May 4, 2024, the world of Web3 is set to collide with one of the most prestigious horse racing events. Photo Finish LIVE, a virtual horse racing game, has announced a unique and exciting opportunity for Web3 enthusiasts and horse racing fans alike: the SuperFecta Scratch-Off event, featuring a jaw-dropping $100,000 prize.

In celebration of the milestone 150th Kentucky Derby, Photo Finish LIVE has launched the SuperFecta Scratch-Off event, offering a chance to win a life-changing $100,000 prize. The event revolves around minting free SuperFecta tickets, which are non-fungible tokens (NFTs) representing the order of the top four finishers in the Kentucky Derby.

Participants can mint up to three free SuperFecta tickets, plus the cost of gas fees on the Base Network, a Layer 2 scaling solution from Coinbase Global. Each ticket is essentially a scratch-off card, with one lucky ticket guaranteeing the $100,000 grand prize.

To facilitate a seamless Web3 experience, Photo Finish LIVE has partnered with Coinbase Wallet, enabling users to mint their SuperFecta tickets directly through the popular cryptocurrency wallet. Additionally, the event supports several other wallets, ensuring accessibility for a wide range of Web3 enthusiasts.

"As a portfolio company of Coinbase Ventures, it felt long overdue for us to build a seamless experience that works with the Coinbase Wallet to set the stage for an unprecedented FREE MINT event," said Ian Cummings, CEO of Third Time Entertainment, the parent company of Photo Finish LIVE.

"Superfecta Scratch-Off is our fun way of connecting Web3 technology and digital assets to the actual Kentucky Derby results," Cummings explained. "This simple and exciting process will convert the Web3 world into rooting for their steeds in the historic May 4 IRL race, showcasing Photo Finish LIVE's ability to inject a new generation of fans into one of the world's oldest sports – it's our version of March Madness brackets!"

In addition to the grand prize of $100,000, Photo Finish LIVE is offering other incentives to encourage participation and engagement. Owners of SuperFecta scratch-off tickets will have the opportunity to win free unraced virtual horses, further immersing participants in the virtual horse racing experience.

The SuperFecta Scratch-Off event is a testament to the potential of Web3 technology to revolutionize the way we experience and engage with traditional sports. By leveraging the power of blockchain, NFTs, and decentralized applications, Photo Finish LIVE is paving the way for a new era of fan engagement, where the lines between virtual and real-world experiences blur.
