The Foxens’ back Solana before WSOP Paradise.

To be fair, the partnership between Solana and the WSOP has made life much easier for people attending live events.

Players at WSOP Paradise can use Solana Pay to avoid fees and skip registration lines.

WSOP Paradise 2026 is shaking things up, and not just with the cards.

Players can now buy into tournaments using Solana, marking the first time crypto is accepted for entries at the WSOP since the summer.

When the World Series of Poker teamed up with Solana, it was more than just another branding play.

Players could use SOL, USDC, or USDT to buy into tournaments directly via the WSOP Live app, with zero fees. According to Anuj at pokerfuse, during the 2026 series, Solana powered around one in forty tournament entries and handled about one in every twenty-three dollars spent on buy-ins. The partnership might get even more interesting at the upcoming WSOP Paradise festival, where players could opt to receive their winnings in stablecoins. For those not keeping up with blockchain trends, Solana is touted as fast and cheap compared to older networks.

Phil Hellmuth is backing Solana for his WSOP Paradise exploits.

Solana partnered up with the World Series of Poker earlier this year, and that partnership has already produced some interesting results. It looks like Phil Hellmuth is fully onboard with the idea of using crypto and he plans to buy into most of his 2026 WSOP Paradise tournaments using Solana.
