How much money does Aviator really make?
In this episode of The Under Pressure Podcast, Spribe founder David Natroshvili breaks down the unbelievable numbers behind the world’s most played crash game — including how Aviator hit €14 billion wagered in a single month and 350,000 bets per minute (on track for 1 million).
David shares how he cold-pitched Aviator at ICE London with nothing but an iPad… and got rejected by everyone when offering 15% of Spribe for €150K.
We cover:
What it really takes to build a €500M game
The player-first UX that reshaped an entire category
Spribe’s €35M+ UFC sponsorship deal and how it changed their marketing forever
David’s relationship with Dana White, and the role of athlete ambassadors in growing a brand
Why trust, resilience, and human relationships still beat flashy tech
This is the most revealing conversation ever recorded about Aviator — and a blueprint for building a game that becomes a brand.
