Battle of Malta Online Hits Full Stride on CoinPoker as Early Champions Emerge: Best Crypto Giveaway in 2026?

One of the most anticipated crypto giveaways of the year is now in full flow at CoinPoker, delivering three weeks of intense poker action alongside $30 million in guaranteed prize pools across dozens of tournaments.

The series kicked off as scheduled on July 12 and has since awarded millions in crypto prizes across several major events, a run that has attracted coverage from numerous industry-leading publications.

The opening week, for instance, was a hit, headlined by the $1,000,000 GTD CoinMillion and several other notable early highlights.

However, considering that many events are still ahead, with massive guarantees, real trophies, and Battle of Malta Autumn Edition live packages before the series wraps up on August 3, there’s still more than enough to compete for.

CoinPoker & Battle of Malta Partnership – A New Chapter for Crypto Poker?

Only a few weeks after its collaboration with Triton Poker, CoinPoker has raised the bar again through a new partnership with Battle of Malta.

Notably, Battle of Malta started in Malta in 2012 and has since grown into one of Europe’s best-known mid-stakes events.

The partnership between the two, however, aims to further bridge the gap between crypto poker platforms and the elite live poker stage while delivering more value to players worldwide.

This commitment is showcased through the rollout of Battle of Malta Online Series, featuring an impressive $30 million in guaranteed prize pools.

The tournament series is already in full swing, exclusive to CoinPoker players, giving them a structured pathway to win not only substantial cash rewards and unique trophies but also direct entry into one of the most celebrated live poker events on the international poker calendar.

The schedule, in particular, features a diverse lineup of tournaments spread across multiple formats and buy-in levels, catering to players of all backgrounds and skill levels.

$215 CoinMillion Takes Centre Stage in Battle of Malta Online Opening Weekend

The opening week is now done and dusted, with the $215 CoinMillion among the key highlights. The event featured the biggest prize pool of the series so far: $1,000,000.

And after a fierce battle through the field, “monc” emerged as the winner, clinching the title and a first-place prize of $121,500.

But that’s not all! The champion also received a real Battle of Malta Online trophy, alongside a matching digital version in the CoinPoker Trophy Cabinet.

Below is a table showing the top five finishers in the CoinMillion event:

Champions also emerged from other opening-week events. They include:

• “agarrolaocho,” who won the Valletta 8-Max for $39,002.46.
• “Vorr,” who clinched the Battle of Malta $150 CoinMasters BITCOIN title, winning $39,764.14.
• “BAAAAMBINOOOO,” who captured the $320 Dark Knight PKO for $18,341.63.
• “shipitplz,” who won the $55 Mini CoinMillion for $20,000.

3rd place in Malta million in my crypto wallet in under an hour. For anything negative I’ve said about coin, this negates it. Very impressed on that quick payout

Feedback from players indicates that these winnings are credited almost immediately, further underscoring CoinPoker’s reputation for near-instant crypto payouts. One player, for example, reported receiving the payment in his crypto wallet within an hour.

And with plenty of events still ahead, there’s still time to join the action.

So don’t miss out – you can even take advantage of the satellite route to qualify for other notable events billed to take place later in the schedule.

What’s Still to Come at Battle of Malta Online Series

As the Battle of Malta Online Series continues until August 3, the question arises: what major events and live package opportunities still await players?

Here they are:

Live Packages to Battle of Malta Autumn Edition

Throughout the series, CoinPoker will award 100 free packages to the 2026 Battle of Malta Autumn Edition, scheduled to run from October 27th to November 4th.

Each package is valued at $2,500 and covers travel expenses, accommodation, and a €600 ticket to the live Main Event, featuring a $2,000,000 guarantee.

Unsurprisingly, players have been winning these packages since the start of the series through the Champions Trials leaderboard promotion.

Here’s how to qualify: enter any of the Battle of Malta Online events each week to win a ticket to the Champions Trials multi-stage tournaments, where players compete for the live packages.

Battle of Malta Main Event

At the core of this series is the flagship $565 Main Event, accompanied by a $2,500,000 guarantee. It takes a multi-flight structure, with Day 1 flights running throughout the festival at 17:30 UTC.

Players who make it through will return for Day 2 on August 3rd, competing for a unique physical trophy that stands out from other Battle of Malta Online trophies.

Satellites for this event are available for $55. And for those eager to enter, here is the schedule:

Battle of Malta Main Challenger & Main Crusader

Then, there is the $55 Main Challenger, featuring a $500,000 guarantee, easily positioning it among the strongest guarantee-to-buy-in ratios of the entire festival.

This event runs alongside the $11 Main Crusader. That opens up a more affordable entry point into the series. And just like the Main Event, these two tournaments also embrace a multi-flight structure.

Day 1 flights take place every day at 17:30 UTC. Players take their best stacks to Day 2 to compete for the prize pool.

CoinMasters BTC High Roller

Another headline event to look forward to is the $1,500 CoinMasters BTC High Roller, offering a $1,000,000 prize pool.

While this event is part of CoinPoker’s coveted CoinMasters schedule, it now offers even more value to players.

In particular, the winner will receive a special physical trophy along with the usual gold-plated CoinMasters coin awarded in all BITCOIN events.

As of today, Day 1A and 1B of this event have been completed, with Day 1C and 1D on the horizon.

Regs of the Round Table

Next on the Battle of Malta Online schedule is the Regs of the Round Table, a $530 tournament featuring a $200,000 prize pool.

Considering its impressive guarantee, this event is poised to attract some of the biggest names within the CoinPoker community and the poker world at large, including Mario Mosböck, Benjamin Rolle, and even Patrick Leonard.

The medium and low versions are available as well to accommodate players looking for more affordable buy-in options. The medium option, for instance, features $75,000 GTD, while the low edition features $20,000 GTD.

Interestingly, all the three versions will award trophies to winners, adding an extra layer of incentive for players eager to compete.

The Iron Throne

Also on the schedule is the $5,200 Iron Throne, which serves as the battleground for high-stakes players seeking a shot at another major title and a $400,000 guarantee.

It’s a two-day event, beginning on July 26 at 18:05 UTC and continuing the following day at the same time.

Alongside the guarantee, the winner here will also receive a real physical trophy, along with a matching digital version.
