I would say it is mandatory because you won't be able to withdraw otherwise:


I'd be nice if there is no mandatory kyc or a softer level 1 kyc instead.

Since Wapfika mentioned "old enough", I wonder if perhaps blackjack.fun granted their old unverified accounts an exception from mandatory kyc similar to stake? --not necessarily irrevocable considering the future regulatory pressures.

Eh i thought I was gonna see some game changer ideas but they were kind of meh..

Personally, I don't see any reason to be more social just because the casino has a full blown local theme for us locals. One casino appears to have also given up on men because women were more chatty lol when men are more likely to still dominate the gambling scene in the near future.

Does your platform also provide an exchange service or they are just an aggregator meant to lay out information for users because there is a difference between the two in which the latter does not exactly fit the list.

But if your aggregator is seriously good (e.g./together with orangefren, kycnot.me, etc. ) perhaps op might consider adding an honorable mention for aggregators or something however, the thread hasn't been updated for some time.

Thanks for trying!

Hmm. it could be my browser then because I was using firefox and brave when I tried -- with protections off.

The other casinos I've tried remained buttery smooth as well and no signs of throttling from my ISP either.

Won't BISQ and robo be too illiquid for 10BTC + if op wants the sale to happen in a relatively short time frame?

Further, it's worth noting that Canada is banned in binance:

I tried to check and casino plus live games section did load slower on my end. In addition, the sports section was stuck in a loading circle no matter how many times I try. I'm not sure what's going on.

Sounds like typical security checks to me.

About listing all cryptocurrencies in your account, can you try to negotiate if naming most of them would be enough? IIRC, mexc isn't the first one to ask for a similar thing during account recovery but from the ones i've seen, a rough estimation is typically enough. I'm guessing you have a lot of different cryptos?

Yup. I believe AI tech is the new trend most companies have been interested in. Some KYC/AML solutions have started incorporating this too, one example would be jumio:

AI regulations is kind of a wild west tbh since there are still lotsa talks going on about it + the tech is developing pretty fast and opens up different scenarios. Personally, I think it all boils down on what you're using it for.


The downside in this case is, I'd say most casinos would happily nullify a player's winnings especially if it's a big win once they came to know they're from one the restricted countries.

This is totally normal. Unless my calculations are wrong, your example has actually a lower requirement from what I typically see --30x to 45x

In addition, setting the amount needed to be wagered the same as the bonus value is pretty much a 1x wager requirement and casinos could bleed money. It's no secret that a lot of people abuse these bonuses too. At the end of the day, we have to remember bonuses are for promotion's sake.

Jeez, things have escalated from the last time I've read about this.

So Nigeria has apparently invited two binance executives only to intercept them and seize their passports.


I could understand the other two but they're barking up the wrong tree with "allegations of currency manipulation"-- their local currency, i assume- because in binance's "p2p market", users set the price.

and BTW, binance is also discountinuing Naira which I think op should add in the first post.


Honestly, with how messy things are, I would withdraw my money on binance if I was from Nigeria and just come back again when the skies are clear.

This would totally depend on your VPN provider.

Who knows, one or two requests from authorities could be enough for some providers to succumb and handover whatever data they have and/or start the surveillance. Personally, I've never thought VPNs make people anonymous, after all, we are just shifting the trust from our ISP to our VPN provider. For instance, almost all of them claims they don't store logs but we can't verify this as a user so there is a lot of trust involved.


Most I've seen are in a freemium model where plans are divided between paid and free-- free plans are typically with some limits imposed e.g. speed, countries, etc. In this case, I could see it as a promotional approach. Of course, I'm not saying every provider with freemium model must be clean lol since you still have to consider their overall reputation.

A completely free provider though would send me alarm signals in a heartbeat as you're likely the product that is why it's free.

Centralized gambling platforms are likely to still reign over because in any crypto servce the general public has always prioritized convenience and what they are already familiar with. Alternative means has always been more of a niche to people.

Not to mention the huge game library centralized platforms offer which from a player standpoint is quite tempting. Personally, it's hard to distance with the providers I'm used to and they only work with licensed centralized casinos.

Have you checked if they're available for trading? if so, trade them with a working coin and get out off hitbtc.

edit: or did you mean withdrawals for every coin is blocked?

Their non-custodial claim remains true.

Thing is, exodus wallet and their partnered exchanges are separate platforms. Once you send away your coins in order to swap, the money now sits on the exchange's wallet as well as control (once confirmed, mind you) and no longer in your exodus wallet.

TBH I'm not interested anymore.

Aside from the fees and spread, all the bitcoin ATMs that weren't too far from us required folks to submit an ID. I try to control the platforms I give my personal documents so if I'm gonna do an identity verification, I might as well pick an exchange offering a variety of products/services I plan to use for a long time.

What I do is, I try to be active on crypto communities such as bitcointalk and a couple of subreddits.

I also find using crypto news aggregators much easier -- naturally, cryptopanic.com is one of the choices but I found myself using bitcoinmonkey.org more cause I really liked how easier it was to customize my feed. Too bad they don't have a dark mode yet and auto-refresh of feed but last time I check their ANN, they said they were willing to do these.

I hate to defend hitbtc but I don't think so. Inactivity fee was actually introduced couple of years ago so if you have been charged for the first time on 10-10-2023, it would mean, the clauses for inactivity fee were already present the moment you registered because accounts are considered inactive after 6 months.

On a different note, hitbtc has been displaying shady practices for years and they remain fine up to this day lol. They have also been ignoring multitude of scam accusations posted about them on different places. So honestly, even if you have a case on this one, it's likely you won't get your money back.

I don't recommend exchanging on exodus.

I'd like to preface this with: exodus has partnered with third party exchanges so they're not actually the ones holding your funds during the exchange. The problem is, they don't let you choose which exchange to use and they have a lot of obscure platforms on board. To err on the side of caution, you'd would wanna avoid these obscure exchanges. Not to mention, there are already cases of people who encountered shady behaviour from one of exodus partnered exchanges, for instance: EXODUS + N.Exchange = SCAM | STAY AWAY

If crypto to crypto trades, you have exch.cx however, they only support a limited number of cryptocurrencies. Perhaps you could find more on kycnot.me or find someone trusted on Currency Exchange board.

For crypto to fiat, you have agoradesk.com (more choices on kycnot.me as well) but you'd have to convert your alts to BTC first.

Minimum is on the high side imo -- it's trading for around 40 bucks. I would suggest a much lower amount so it's more accessible to people.

Also agreeing with the ANN thread suggestion. A nice infographic as a headstart would be nice but since a signature campaign has started, I guess it's on the way?
