Refereum was a blockchain-based gaming rewards platform founded by Dylan Jones to redirect video-game marketing budgets away from advertisers and toward gamers and content creators. Refereum Inc. has since entered dissolution proceedings and shut down permanently, with Refereum.com closing in August 2025 and all user data deleted on August 6, 2025. Refereum's Twitter Score is 12 out of 1000 as of July 2026, ranked #88,375 among 531,432 tracked accounts.
Refereum began in early 2017 with a model that used RFR tokens on a blockchain to distribute micropayments to gamers and content creators who engaged with games and streams. The platform reported partnerships with titles including Fortnite and Battlefield and said millions of gamers joined over its lifetime. It previously had affiliations with Twitch, Unity, and Ambisafe, and was formerly backed by Hustle Fund, Orca, and Kenetic Capital.
Refereum relaunched an updated platform in November 2020, allowing users to watch Twitch streams, earn tickets, and claim rewards. At closure, the team stated that RFR had become fully decentralized and was no longer supported, managed, or associated with the company. Refereum has published 1,567 posts on the platform and has been mentioned by 63 accounts a total of 253 times.
