Crypto bettors like songs about saunas: Sweden’s KAJ leads Eurovision 2025 betting
Willemstad, Curacao, May 9th, 2025, Chainwire
Cloudbet crypto bettors back “Bara Bada Bastu” to steam ahead, while Israel remains a top contender despite controversy
With Eurovision 2025 semi-finals set for May 13 and 15 in Switzerland, leading crypto sportsbook Cloudbet reports Sweden’s KAJ has emerged as the market leader. The meme-driven entry “Bara Bada Bastu” is currently trading at odds of 2.12 in Cloudbet’s outright winner market.
Austria’s JJ with “Wasted Love” and France’s Louane with “Maman” follow closely, while Israel’s Yuval Raphael with “New Day Will Rise” remains a strong contender, trading at 13.7 odds (as of May 8, 2025).
Despite political controversies surrounding Israel’s participation due to the ongoing conflict in Gaza, the country’s entry has garnered significant support. Yuval Raphael, a survivor of the October 7, 2023, Hamas attack, brings a poignant narrative to the contest. Calls for Israel’s exclusion have been made by various artists and broadcasters, but the European Broadcasting Union has maintained its stance on inclusivity.
“Last year, Eurovision market volume on Cloudbet eclipsed the Oscars by over 4x—and all signs point to an even bigger year,” said a Cloudbet trading analyst. “With odds shifting over rehearsals, political dynamics, and format changes, informed bettors are capitalizing on volatility before it gets priced in.”
