What is 5 Lions Megaways 2?

When walking back to our hotel after finishing CalvinAyre.com EiG coverage in October of 2013, I looked over to my producer (Rob) and camera operator (Mani) and said, “I think my calling is Bitcoin”. 

As a team that year we had already covered several Bitcoin events including Bitcoin London and Le Web, both featuring Bitcoin enthusiasts who were eager to educate the world on this groundbreaking technology. EiG 2013 attracted several professionals in the Bitcoin space as well, at the time with a focus on introducing Bitcoin as a payment system for iGaming operators.

Calvin took notice of Bitcoin in the early days, immediately identifying its vast potential for his “first love”, the iGaming industry. Little did I know just how significant Bitcoin would become for CalvinAyre.com, Calvin Ayre as a person and myself as a professional. Fast forward to February 2021 and its time for CalvinAyre.com to hang up its hat. Bitcoin has actually become my calling.

That positioning matters. It points to a title built for broad operator placement and steady session play rather than a chase-the-max spectacle, which fits how volume-driven studios tend to structure their mid-tier output.

Where REEVO tries to differentiate Thunder Walker is in how it stacks its features rather than in any single new idea. The game has several mechanics designed to add variety to the gameplay, including the Bingo Feature, Jackpot Spins, Walking Wild and Collect Feature.

The Walking Wild sits at the core of the game’s storm identity, with Wild symbols moving across the reels between spins to create additional win chances. It’s a well-established mechanic across the industry. REEVO uses it here as the connective tissue between the game’s theme and its base play.

If the research firm’s $190 billion taker volume estimate proves accurate, it’d represent a more than eightfold increase from the $22 billion taker turnover seen last year.

Potentially boding well for the Macquarie forecast are at least two factors. First, there are signs of turnover increases across a variety of yes/no exchanges. Second, volume surged to start September with those spikes arriving even before the NFL season kicked off.

As Macquarie analyst Chad Beynon points out, prediction markets generated $4.3 billion in taker volume during the first week of September without any help from the NFL, building on momentum from the 2026 World Cup. However, the NFL’s impact was immediate, with taker volume hitting a daily record during Week 1 of the campaign.
