Cloudbet Academy Launches World Cup 2026 Betting Guide: Crypto Strategies and Tournament Insights
Willemstad, Curaçao – Cloudbet, a leading crypto sportsbook and casino, today announces the release of the World Cup 2026 Betting Guide, a new free course in its Cloudbet Academy platform. Designed specifically for crypto users, this 35-minute open-access guide delivers targeted strategies and practical insights to help bettors navigate the expanded 48-team FIFA World Cup 2026, scheduled for June 11 to July 19, 2026.
The FIFA World Cup consistently ranks as one of the most heavily bet-on sporting events globally, attracting billions in wagers each edition due to its massive scale, international reach, and cultural impact. Industry estimates for recent tournaments place global betting turnover in the tens of billions of dollars, with projections for 2026 suggesting even higher volumes given the tournament’s unprecedented 48-team format and 104 matches.
A Cloudbet spokesperson says, “The 2026 World Cup is a prime moment for crypto bettors. On Cloudbet, with instant deposits and payouts in over 40 cryptocurrencies, you’re in the game within minutes. Stablecoins like USDT let you ride out volatility through the tournament, and low gas fees mean you can move fast when the odds shift. Want to back your country? Your club hero? You can, and with no red tape.”
Hundreds of outrights, player props, team specials, group winners, and other futures markets are already live on Cloudbet. These cover everything from tournament winner and top goalscorer to assists leader and match-specific propositions, giving users immediate access to a broad spectrum of options. For high-stakes bettors, Cloudbet’s Whale Mode—launched just in time for the Super Bowl—enables VIP traders to automate large positions with precision, making it ideal for high-profile tournaments like the World Cup.
The Academy, launched in late 2025, features three core tracks—Crypto Betting Basics, Sports Betting Fundamentals, and Betting Strategies & Analytics—that include interactive quizzes and rewards upon completion. The World Cup 2026 Betting Guide stands apart as the first tournament-specific course. It provides a focused, standalone deep dive that equips crypto users with crypto-optimized approaches to futures positioning, match betting, in-play tactics, and more.

World Cup 2026 Qualification Snapshot
As of January 2026, 42 nations have qualified, including co-hosts USA, Canada, and Mexico, plus major teams from every confederation such as Spain, England, France, Argentina, Brazil, Japan, and Morocco. The December 2025 draw has set the groups, and six final spots will be decided in March 2026 through UEFA play-offs and the inter-confederation tournament in Mexico.
The Academy’s ‘World Cup Outright & Futures Betting‘ module covers more on this, including strategies for betting on group qualification, interpreting odds movements during play-offs, and positioning early in long-term markets amid uncertainty.
A Cloudbet spokesperson noted, “With groups locked in and just a few spots left, now’s the window where early odds still reflect uncertainty. This is when sharp bettors get in—before pricing tightens after March and public money floods the markets in June.”
