2,783One of the biggest sponsors in esports is collapsing as we speak.
FTX, a cryptocurrency exchange, sponsored Team SoloMid in a record-breaking $210-million deal. But that seven-year agreement barely made it to year two.

So today we’re taking a look at what the FTX collapse means for esports – and where things might go from here.
