If so, what are the main advantages that you find important?

If not, what's missing that is keeping you from switching to bitcoin sites?

Does this mean moneypot is considering a sportsbetting option? I'd like to see another sportsbetting site. Anyway, I definitely prefer bitcoin sportsbetting sites vs fiat ones.
Why?
- No verification needed
- Quick withdraws
- Better odds/lower margins on some sites vs fiat books
- Won't limit you for arbitrage betting or using only their best odds lines.

This pretty much sums it up.

Also, with directbet for example, you don't even have to create an account or keep bitcoins onsite. You fund each bet from your own wallet and your winnings get paid directly to your own wallet.

I prefer bitcoin sports betting sites over traditional fiat ones because of the fact that it is completely anonymous, and have quick withdraws. The only thing that I don't like about Bitcoin sports betting sites is that it will take a while for the transaction to be confirmed(up to 30 minutes!) due to the fact that new blocks need to be mined.

Yeah, I hate this too, especially when I want to make bets during halftimes of various football (American) matches.

Would this be fixed with off-chain funds already on the site?

I do enjoy using bitcoin casinos rather than fiat ones because with those I would have to use my credit card in order too buy credits and tokens. There was always some skepticism whenever I would do that.
I always had in the back of mind there could be a potential threat of credit card fraud happening from a hack attempt or some other way those hackers get data from all those sites that hold customer information.

MoneyPot betting option confirmed. Or pretty much anyway. NitrogenSports and Directbet accept no confirmation betting, along with some other sites. Directbet has shitty odds though and nitrogen doesn't offer a large live betting selection. Sportsbet.io is decent for what you want (based on what you dislike)

I agree and I also hate the waiting foe a Bitcoin transaction to be confirmed and that is why I prefer to use DirectBet as they have a few Alts to choose from and I use Dogecoins on there as it's almost instantly confirmed.

So I suggest that if someone is going to start a sportsbetting site to not just use Bitcoin but add a few crypto currencies as not only are the confirmations quicker with other crypto coins but it also gives members a variety of coins to use while betting. Also I like DirectBet a lot because there is no need to sign up and have Bitcoins or any other coins in your account.

I prefer an online sportsbetting, it's like bitcoin and in my country there is an online sportsbook that i love. Because they have a good odds and complete match for any sports include MMA and i always bet on bitcoin sportsbetting for MMA match.

i prefer bitcoin sports betting also because of you can hide your personal identity as i'm betting in secret no one knows what i'm doing with my pc the transaction can be done easily and the charge is just little small, you just needed to place your bet with your btc wait for the game to finish and withdraw your money easily.

Is this even a question to ask on bitcoin forum? :) Of course everyone here will say that they prefer bitcoin supporting business over old school FIAT based.
When I first say registration page on some standard bookie site (IIRC it was bet365.com) I thought - yeah right, they want more information about me than my bank needs - no thanks.

Yup I prefer sportsbetting bitcoin the reason of course to maintain  privacy because in my country gambling is not allowed
Another thing is easier to use bitcoin I can deposit and withdrawal at any time If using a local bank that does not allow because they are only available 6 days a week and only 8 hours a day if the system  offline all transactions will be delayed

One of the advantage is  there's better chance of wining in sportsbeting than on dice.
If you knew the sports very much like basketball, you can always compare which team has better players and this also applies to boxing sports.

I prefer whatever site has the best promotions. Sites like nitrogen that keep your btc as btc are good, but they have zero promotions to attract and draw new users.  A lot of fiat sites have awesome deposit matching bonuses, which can double the amount you deposit instantly.

i prefer bitcoin sportsbetting sites because then i would be using bitcoin, but mostly because i don't have to go anywhere and i can make the bets from my home or at work behind my desk very easily and the speed of this kind of betting (online and with bitcoin) no matter what game i am choosing is super fast and there is no wasting time with it.

Yeah, that's why many people love to do online gambling. It provide chance to new person to try gambling due to it's advantages such as low minimum capital and anonymous transaction which can transfer directly to your wallet. The conclusion it's easier to do.

Yap, in btc anonimity and assurance of money if better for me. it is almost the same and the rates are unchangeable once it is encoded, whilst in fiat gambling many rules can be changed depends on every situation.

All online gambling is indeed not need our names (mostly), it makes us calmer in gambling, but also pose a major problem if we could control ourselves while doing gambling. Don't ever think that you could get huge profits if you can't control yourself.

as it is a BTC forum no one will vote for fiat imo

most important points are that it must be anonymous and the odds must be better than the competitors odds

I have switched to Bitcoin sports betting sites completely because of many issues which were appearing with traditional gambling sites. First problem was privacy issue and personal information and credit card exposing. Bitcoin resolved this issue completely and I feel much more comfortable and it is much more fast just need to access the sites and done.

I Like to bet through bitcoin sports betting sites because they give wide range of option of betting through wide range of coins, and i  dont have to disclose my identity and bet any time, and the payment and withdrawal is also very fast and accurate.  and more over In my country it is not allowed to do gambling so i cannot do high gambling on fiat currency sites as they require identity verification and that give my identity problem.

I would chose bitcoin sports bookies any day. Though they are a little bit behind in terms of providing good odds, they still offer fast withdrawals unlike some fiat sports book. Also, you can actively interact with other people and they give you tips, some of which are premium, unlike on those traditional fiat sportsbook. Lastly, fiat sports bookies do have some strict rules and regulations to abide the regulations in their area of operation, in which case bitcoin sports book do not; it offers freedom to gamble.

everybody aware about the anonymous nature of bitcoin are the most wanted in gambling world , most people did not want to reveal their identity to the third party which sure you don't trust to.

but there is a lot of bitcoin sportsbook that unlicensed/illegal and if you caught play for it you might get serious problem.

Yes I absolutely prefer to use Bitcoin sites for sports bets.
The reasons are simple. I don't have to register with any name, I don't have to give any private informations for payments and so on.
Bitcoin is much quicker and also cheaper in terms of transaction fees.
You choose a game you wanna bet on, send the amount you wish to risk and if you win you will get it back plus profit immediately.
Couldn't be more comfortable than that.
I'm pretty sure a few of the those Bitcoin gambling sites could become really big.

For sports betting I have said good bye to traditional betting sites and people physically. There were lot of problem using bank account and card details which was awful and always full fear of not being lost money. Bitcoin came out with best solution in sports betting and I am just using Bitcoin as method of payment to play, no more fiat gambling.
