Disclosed are gaming systems, methods and machines that include one or more modular buttons. In particular, a modular button is configured for mounting within a frame or panel. The modular button may be interchangeable, such that various modular buttons may be added, exchanged, and/or removed from the frame. In some examples, the frame may be formed of a metal or other structural material. In some examples, the frame may be formed within a surface of another system, such as a bar-top, a gaming table, or an EGM, as a non-limiting listing of examples. The modular buttons include devices and/or circuitry to enable wireless transfer of power and/or communications.

A blockchain system comprising a plurality of electronic gaming devices configured to perform proof of work computations and a processor configured to: collect transaction data from a blockchain; create a block body that includes the transaction data; transmit a message to a set of electronic gaming devices that includes the block body; receive, from a first electronic gaming device, a success message that includes at least a nonce string; create a new block for the blockchain that includes at least the block body and the nonce string; transmit the new block into the blockchain, thereby causing the new block to be added to the blockchain; identify a mining reward on the blockchain based on the adding of the new block, the mining reward being in a first value of cryptocurrency supported by the blockchain; and increment a progressive jackpot by the first value, the progressive jackpot being provided in the cryptocurrency.

A gaming device uses a USB interface for power delivery and data transmission. In non-limiting examples, the USB interface may be a universal serial bus (USB) C-type cable communicatively and electrically connecting multiple electronic gaming devices and/or auxiliary devices, such as monitors, thereby reducing the number of cables for power and data delivery between machines and/or devices.

A blockchain system for supporting electronic gaming on a plurality of electronic gaming devices a primary blockchain and a system server participating in the primary blockchain. The primary blockchain defines a partially fungible tokens configured to be used for game play for a first gaming operator. The system server is configured to (i) identify a game outcome from a play of an electronic game based on output of a random number generator, the game outcome includes an award amount of PFTs; (ii) generate a blockchain transaction that includes an operator address as a funds source account of the blockchain transaction, a player address as a destination account of the blockchain transaction, and the award amount of PFTs; and (iii) transmit the blockchain transaction into the primary blockchain, thereby transferring the award amount of PFTs.

Disclosed are gaming systems, methods and machines that may include one or more notched display screens. The notched display screens are defined by a non-rectangular shape. One or more portions of the display screen is removed, such that a variety of shapes can result from one or more cuts in the screen. In some examples, two or more notched display screens are arranged to provide a common and/or coordinated display. In some examples, a void from the removed portions can be used to present a feature, such as a mechanical reel.
