Bakkt teams up with Caesars to bring crypto rewards to Las Vegas
According to Bakkt, its partnership with Caesars is set to bring the benefits of crypto rewards to customers of one of the best entertainment providers in Las Vegas, itself “the entertainment capital of the world.”
Specifically, the collaboration will see millions of Caesars’ customers be able to redeem their rewards credits through the Bakkt Crypto rewards system. The option will be available once the companies secure regulatory approval and will benefit millions of Caesar’s customers.
