My.Games divests creator platform allegedly used to violate Russia sanctions


Boosty, a creator support platform owned by My.Games, was sold after creators allegedly used the platform to violate sanctions on Russia.

According to an investigation by Dutch outlet Nieuwsuur, creators solicited cryptocurrency donations on the platform and then used these funds to support Russian war efforts. This step supports the company’s commitment to focus all its resources on the core business, namely creating exceptional gaming experiences for players across the globe,” said Grigorian. Boosty and DonationAlerts have clear potential, and I look forward to seeing how these platforms continue to evolve and contribute to the creative community under new leadership,” said Kharaneka.
