Dota 2's The International is always utterly insane when it comes to prize money, but its popularity is only growing. You can tell by that ever rising community infused winnings.

With the finals just starting yesterday, the winnings have just hit a massive mile stone. The current prize money available at the tournament just hit $20 million, most of which comes from player in-game purchases. It's a system I really like, as it ensures the best players int he world stick with the game. $8 Million of that will go to the outright winners, who will be crowned at the end of the week.

But $20 million overall? Utter madness, most sports don't have that kinda pool for winners. E-Sports most definitely are a thing.
