Cryptocasino Help

[justdoit]

Yeah, i get that! Here are the two questions then. I think many would be interested to know:

1. What is the cheapest exchange to buy crypto?
2. What exchange charges the lowest crypto transfer fees?

I know some use Gemini, Kraken, Crypt.com and use LTC or ETH for gambling. I personally used Coinbase and OKX.
Coinbase was something totally ridiculous IMO. The image shows that i bought ETH for £1000, and then for transferring that ETH amount, they charged me £50.

I use coinbase a lot for investment they charger me so much money, this is when I sold my XRP they charger 500quit

 

[bamberfishcake]

I get what you saying about network fee is low, but show me how much this wallet charge fee when you buy any crypto? I dont think you can buy crypto without fee, maybe I am wrong like you sad not expert

I was advised not to use wallets to buy or sell because of fees. Again, you are paying for a service you can do on an exchange I use exchanges like Binance to buy and a wallet to pay or engage with sites

When you do a swap or buy using a wallet, that wallet does it through an exchange. All crypto buy and sell happens on exchanges.

And take a look at today's crypto. Losing coins in red

yes but when it comes to gambling skrill charger me like 10 quit, for 500quit, i am going to spend 500quit on gambling I dont mine paying 10quit in transfer, Exchange is good when you do larger amount of investment

I don't ever buy through a wallet, always exchange, is cheaper as far as I know. Trouble is, so many exchanges and wallets, it really is hard to find the best method.

Crypto and NFTs are in no way user-friendly, but are getting better.

Anyway, I have clearly had too much coffee and am flooding the thread Taking five lol

Here is what i discovered, just now . Apparently buying via Metamask with MoonPay is cheaper than Coinbase.

This shows £4.32 for £100 worth of Ethereum, which means for 1k it would be roughly £43.32 +/-. Coinbase charged me £50+ for 1k.




Here is what Metamask say about their fees:

"A service fee of 0.875% is automatically factored into each quote to support ongoing development to make MetaMask even better."

--------------------------------------------------

P.S. Actually, it would come in total as with Coinbase because I would have to pay the gas fees for transferring 1k worth of Ethereum from Metamask to a casino. Skrill to the casino would certainly be cheaper.

It's a minefield, for sure. As with anything, knowledge is power, but more so with crypto. Knowing the tricks of the trade can save you a pretty penny, as you demonstrate. I would go back to my original point of using ETH, but again, if that's the only option you have at a casino, then It seems your way is cheaper than mine. Personally, I would use one that takes LTC, ADA, SOL etc. And still buy on an exchange direct with card and send to wallet. I don't like Metamask also.

I think in Kraken you can do easy exchange, not sure if still works but i know they had exchange

Yes, they still have an exchange. Think they started as one. It's very popular with traders I think. I was told to get Kraken Pro but I have not checked it out. Might be worth looking into @Guntis

No, it's not the only option. I simply first used BTC (a bad idea) and then switched to ETH. And today, from this thread learned a few other things. The next time I play, I will try LTC.

 

[shadow123]

I started off with the worst possible method,buying BTC from the casino
using a debit card.We all have to start somewhere.
Strange thing is that the charges never bothered me as I am well up, think
I have only had one losing session.
Do other players here find that you get so much more playtime on crypto
casinos,In the UK a £100 deposit can be gone in minutes.
I mainly do low value bonus buys, had some cracking results,20000x on
a basic 20p buy on Fat Banker,and 30000 x on a Pirots 20p super buy..
cost £100 though.

2-3 days ago I had max win in retro tape. when i use to play in UK i did like 1000 spins without bonus

first time I play in crypto over year ago I made deposit with some stupid vouchers they charger me so much I lost like 30% of my deposit on chargers good think we talking about crypto is new think for everyone

 

[kou187]

Interesting read guys, I've been using coinbase for my online transactions. Seems there one of if not the shittest bitcoin wallet to have. I will Try one of the others mentioned after reading the feedback.

 

[bamberfishcake]

Just had a bash on a fairly new casino that accepted SOL. Used Phantom Wallet to transfer SOL at a network fee of 0.00001 SOL.

1 SOL is currently around £12.

Using autoplay again rekindled my burning desire for a relaxing time on the reels. What a joy to be able to set up 100 spins and go make a coffee while the reels churn away in the background.

I busted out with the 0.5 SOL I tinkered with, but a much better experience than playing within the restrictive UKGC guidelines.

Here are the wallet options for solcasino.io



Find casino, check options and work backwards I think. I am not sure about WalletConnect as I have not used it but the others I have or have heard of.

Not recommending solcasino.io because I never got to try a withdrawal or give it a full go but depositing was simple. NLC games are 94%ers and game choice is very limited.

p.s. Must dash, have a flight back from Finland to UK to catch. Flew all the way here just to try out solcasino this morning.

 

[shadow123]

Seems a little strange talking about crypto in the open for the first time,its like we have all come "out".
Does show that a lot of players here are going offshore, directly as a consequence of the UKGC making
the UK market such a miserable and expensive experience.
Not sure what CM view on crypto casinos is,think it is quite important that we dont give the impression that
everything is wonderful in offshore gambling, it is a minefield, they are many rogue casinos out there and
for some players the new experience of totally unrestricted play with all the joys like fast play, auto play
and bonus buys may well cause problems,its important that we stay grounded and rely on our own self
discipline.

 

[bamberfishcake]

Well said.

For the record, I do not support or recommend playing outside of your jurisdiction. I think we are quite well-informed in this forum, and we all know how often many of these Crypto-Curacao outfits call for KYC and SOW when it comes to making a withdrawal.

I dont think good crypto casino will ask for SOW, they are some one they do try everything, when I play in new casino first time I make small deposit to see what is going on, many casinos they dont let you play all games in bonus money,

 

[Guntis]

The popularity of crypto casinos in the UK will only grow. I see one quite a big slots affiliate has already removed all the UKGC-licenced casinos (VS, Casumo, Unibet, etc) from their main casinos' page and left only crypto ones ... lol

For the maximum benefit, I think is best to choose crypto casinos that are popular among players worldwide, and before playing, do a bit of research on game RPT settings (many offer them lowered) and the quality of bonus offerings. BC.Game, for instance, has all the bonuses one can imagine, but they all are useless - of low value. I'm not much into bonuses, but sound RTPs, for me are the most important.

P.S Worth noting also is that playing from gambling-friendly countries using VPN is a must! I used Ireland and Finland.

Then you have people like me. I never use auto spins. I never buy bonuses (the gambling budget I give myself wouldn’t cover more than two bonus buys at min stake). I’ve never been SOW’d at a UK casino. But a lot of my play is at crypto casinos now.

I only frequent two UK casinos now, the only two that offer max RTP across the board. But they will eventually SOW me I’m sure, once I finally cross some arbitrary threshold. They will never receive any financial documentation from me. Ever.

when I see casino advertise big bonus offers like 1 bitcoin etc to me they sound same as no gamstop casinos, casinos like BC K8 Vave I will stay away from it, they are more set up for fake streamers playing high stake, playing low stake in one of this casino you got no chance to get bonus, and most of the good games are blocked to play in bonus money, K8 BC Vave pays so much in affiliation every UK streamer are pushing to join,
also one good think when you start playing crypto open new email, most of crypto casinos loves to spam you with stupid emails, best crypto casino I play up to now Winz and Bitstarz, but winz dont acept UK players only if you live outside of UK

 

[shadow123]

Never recieved a single email from BC, dont know if I opted out at some stage,the silly bonuses they offer for the first
few deposits are as you say pretty useless,I have a bonus balance of around $8000 that is drip fed by massive wagering
of real funds in amounts of $5.I achieved Vip status the other day and getting recharge bonus of $2 @ day,there is also
weekly and monthly cash back but not expecting too much from that.
To me any bonus is a bonus, as long doesnt interfere with normal cash and withdrawals, I take whatever comes.
However much it is its still more than the miserable UK offerings.Far more important is the high RTP,S, they definatelty
give more bang for your bucks.
The big danger with crytpos is the possible demand for KYC and SOW docs as a pretext for withholding large withdrawals
As I no longer send any docs to UK casinos , I sure as damn wont sent any to Curaco, so I would be stuffed, cant expect
much help from Max or CM athough i think they are on talking terms with BC Game

 

[kou187]

My only worry about using one of these crypto only sites, is that if I did win a couple grand and they void my withdrawal because I'm using a v.p.n.

Has this happened to anyone and if so what was your experience. I'm thinking about giving it a go just so I can have autoplay and faster spins etc

Fuck doing bonus buys. After watching the bandits recent videos it's just made me want to avoid them even more. And there expensive as fuck and have a high chance of returning under ten times the sake most of the time. Fuck that shit

 

[shadow123]

You have to be very selective with bonus buys,Hacksaw,Push and Relax are all brutal, avoid anything with Bass in the name
as well.If you do play anything super volatile, do it on the lowest stake,If its going to hit big you will be still be happy.
My favorite buys are the super buys on Blood and Shadow and Pirots.Was very lucky on Fat Banker, horrible game but managed
a $2000 win from 20p stake $15 buy, totally scripted, gave 5 wilds on the first spin and reached the second to top level.
Think as probably 90% of players use VPN,s the casinos are generally ok with it but nothing is garanteed in crypto land

for past one year I lost 3-4 account, they find out I was playing from UK but they never refuse to pay me, I dont think casinos worry if you play in VPN, but some casinos are strict with UK players, even in Norway Crypto casinos are ban but 66% of Norway gamblers using crypto casinos, now i move from UK I reopen one of the account but still play in VPN

sure you dont get email from BC, if you read their T/C they do sell your info to other agents to send you offers, regards to their bonus offers are very bad, you need to spend $1000s to get 5% bonus or cashback,
