A New Phase of Collaboration: EzCash Casino Joins the Gaza Sky Geeks Mission
11.03.2025
Gaza Sky Geeks — the only tech hub and startup accelerator in the Gaza Strip, empowering local entrepreneurs through education and digital opportunities since 2011 — has partnered with EzCash, a global blockchain gaming innovator, in 2024. This alliance aims to provide Palestinian developers with access to cutting-edge Web3 tools and pathways to financial independence.
Ryan St. Clair, Co-Founder of Gaza Sky Geeks:
“Our startups create solutions to global challenges despite blockades and infrastructure gaps. EzCash Casino’s support isn’t just funding—it’s a bridge to a world where technology erases borders.”
Anton Smirnov, CEO of EzCash Casino:
“We believe gambling should be ethical. That’s why 10% of our platform’s profits now fund Gaza Sky Geeks’ educational programs. This is an investment in a future where Palestinian developers lead the blockchain industry.”

Success Story: A Gaza Startup Conquers the Metaverse
