# Bookmaker.XYZ > Private. Liquid. Real Decentralized Betting. Bookmaker.xyz is a decentralized sportsbook that lets users bet on sports and esports with cryptocurrency. Bets settle on-chain through smart contracts, and users keep control of funds via self-custodied balances. Bookmaker.xyz is a decentralized sportsbook for placing cryptocurrency bets on sports and esports events without relying on a centralized operator holding user funds. Users can sign up with an email or social account or connect a wallet, then bet on football, basketball, tennis, esports, and other events using tokens on a supported blockchain. Bets settle through smart contracts rather than an internal ledger, and betting is gasless, letting users interact with on-chain markets without managing network fees directly. The platform addresses a common concern with betting services, whether traditional or crypto based, where an operator custodies user balances and controls withdrawal timing. Bookmaker.xyz uses non-custodial infrastructure so funds remain accessible to the user rather than locked inside an operator-controlled account. Odds and settlement logic run through the Azuro decentralized betting protocol, which the sportsbook interface connects to for pricing and resolving markets. The product covers a range of sports and esports titles, including team sports, combat sports, and competitive gaming, with markets structured around individual matches and tournaments. Deposits can be made from multiple chains through a simplified flow, and withdrawals are processed instantly without manual approval queues. It is used by crypto-native bettors and newer users seeking a familiar sportsbook experience backed by transparent, self-custodied settlement. - Type: Protocol - Sector: Finance - Status: Active - Founded: 2022-01-01 - Profile: https://thegrid.id/profiles/bookmaker_xyz ## Products - [Bookmaker.xyz](https://thegrid.id/profiles/bookmaker_xyz): Bookmaker.xyz is a decentralized sportsbook that lets users bet on sports and esports without depositing funds into a centralized account.
