Battle of Malta Online Series Hits A New Gear On CoinPoker as More Champions Are Crowned

The race for Battle of Malta Online titles and a share of the $30 million prize pool is intensifying at CoinPoker, a reputable crypto poker room known for hosting some of the highest-stakes online action and headline-grabbing promotions.

The three-week-long tournament only kicked off on July 12, but has delivered plenty of memorable moments and crowned multiple champions across a string of competitive events.

In the opening week alone, a number of players claimed titles, physical trophies, as well as six-figure payouts.

Leading the early highlights is the $1,000,000 GTD CoinMillion, which recorded fierce competition from start to finish. Other events completed so far have also delivered first-class entertainment.

But with flagship tournaments, physical trophies, and 100 Battle of Malta Autumn Edition live packages still up for grabs, the biggest moments of the festival may still lie ahead.

Battle of Malta Online Series Brings Live and Crypto Poker Together

The Battle of Malta Online Series stems from the strategic collaboration between CoinPoker and Battle of Malta, bringing one of Europe’s most recognizable live poker brands to the online arena.

Battle of Malta has been running since 2012, redefining what a “mid-stakes” poker festival can achieve. Initially, the European poker landscape was dominated by high roller tournaments that were largely out of reach for recreational players.

Battle of Malta changed that narrative by offering a professional “Vegas-style” experience at a price point that welcomed everyone, from recreational player to seasoned pro. That accessibility helps explain the festival’s remarkable growth over the years.

Now, with its partnership with CoinPoker, the focus is clear: to bridge live and crypto poker. The timing couldn’t be better, considering that poker has become the #1 revenue-driving game within the gambling industry, generating a staggering $3.2 billion in Q1 2026 alone.

The Battle of Malta Online Series that the partnership has produced, however, is structured to give crypto poker players a shot at winning all-expense paid packages to the Battle of Malta Autumn Edition at Casino Malta this October.

At the same time, players will compete for a share of the $30 million prize pool, alongside unique physical trophies, digital awards, and titles.

So, it’s hardly surprising that industry observers view the collaboration as one that delivers real value, bigger opportunities, and memorable poker experiences for players both online and at the live tables.

Key Highlights from the Battle of Malta Online Series

Having launched on July 12 and running until August 3, the Battle of Malta Online Series has now reached its halfway point.

Unsurprisingly, the first half has been packed with dramatic moments as players battle across different tournament formats for prizes, titles, and prestige.

Let’s take the $1M CoinMillion, for example. The battle was so fierce that eventual third-place finisher JohnnieTsunami requested a deal at the final table but it was turned down by the remaining players.

In the end, he was eliminated from the tournament, while “monc” emerged as champion, collecting $121,500, a Battle of Malta Online physical trophy, and a matching digital version in the CoinPoker Trophy Cabinet.

He was followed by “n7v7rcapp7d,” who earned $77,100, while “JohnnieTsunami” collected $55,800.

However, the CoinMillion isn’t the only Battle of Malta Online Series event that has stolen the spotlight so far. Several other tournaments have also produced thrilling contests across a range of formats and buy-ins, with more players adding their names to the winners’ list.

BuenaRacha, for example, won the $215 Mdina Masters 8-Max, earning $14.92k and a real Battle of Malta trophy, while agarrolaocho captured the Valletta 8-Max, earning $39,002.46.

Best of all, all of these players received their winnings without delay, further underscoring CoinPoker’s reputation as a go-to poker hub for near-instant crypto payouts.

Players can enter any of the Battle of Malta Online tournaments, including the Main Event through satellites, and keep up with daily winners directly from the software client.
