No, League of Legends is not launching a cryptocurrency right now, Riot confirms

League of Legends is a lot of things. At its foundation, it's an immensely popular MOBA. It's also, thanks to a plethora of multimedia spin-offs, a TV show in the form of Arcane; a life sim, thanks to Bandle Tale; and a platform game in Song of Nunu. Another arena that LoL briefly looked to have ventured into earlier today was branded cryptocurrency. But Riot now confirms to PCGamesN that this was actually the result of a hacked social media account.
