Hi,
So I got an email that level 2 verification is going to be mandatory to continue playing on stake…
Anybody else get this email?
I thought the whole point of bitcoin and crypto was to remain annonymous and now we need id verification…
Seems to go against the point.

Maybe that's only for some people.
I have a friend that is platinum 2 or 3 and some weeks ago he got offered bonus cash to do level 2 verification. First they offered 50$, then 100$ and finally 250$. As far as I know he didn't do it, even for the 250, hopefully for him the next mail to him won't be the one you got there. On reddit I saw several posts with the same bonus offers being sent to players.
To be honest, new players already have to do some sort of KYC just to be able to deposit. Making it kind of mandatory for existing customers was only a matter of time I guess.

Edit: I asked him and he got the same email as you, but with the 250$ bonus if he does it in the next couple of days.

I'm sure all non level 2 verified users received the same email, as I heard is that all users should be at least level 2 verified before 2025 Jan 1st but for the $250 bonus it is limited to this week only (till Oct 7th).
Frankly speaking, I'm jealous with the $250 offer becasue I did not receive any bonus when I did level 2 verification long time ago IIRC 
Btw, as far as I can see on the last weekend stream, the number of online users was a bit less than it used to be.
With this mandatory level 2 kyc verification, will it also reduce the number of active players at stake?
Ask this because I still believe that there are still many gamblers who want to play without such a verification.

You are right about that, but this is a casino that if they want to operate more widely they have to play by the rules. Even if you verify lev2 Stake will keep your data safe and secure as long as you play fair, I mean you are a guest so obey the rules of the house. Your intention to gamble will not change and Stake will still serve if there is a complaint. So decide for yourself whether KYC or not, there are still many casinos out there that may not require KYC but you have to do it at your own risk. Or you can use a casino with web3 features that connect directly to your wallet.

As long as the casino uses games from third parties, KYC is required but if the casino only provides original games then KYC is not required or they have the choice to implement it or not. Talking about Stake.com yeah it's just about time, until the time comes when every user is required to go through KYC and if we ask the Stake.com team of course they don't want that but they have no choice because business must go on.

As far as I know level 1 is enough to get a deposit address and start the game, but have you ever thought what KYC level 1 means? it doesn't mean anything at all because they can use fake data it's just that the risk is waiting when they win something big KYC level 2 is likely to be activated. Some of my friends said for now $10,000 withdrawal does not require KYC while in other casinos withdrawal of $2000 requires KYC.

Surprising step by Stake. Looks like they have decided to make the KYC verification mandatory for all the users. I have to complete the level 2 KYC verification before the 1st January of 2025 to continue my betting activity at Stake.



And they have indeed offered me $250 if I complete this before 7th October. I think the bonus amount is same for all the users. Or it could based on users VIP rank.

[xxjumperxx]

My bonus is also 250$, which is a nice bonus. I mean stake is far superior in my opinion and I might take that step and just do the KYC if I can be sure my data is safe... which everyone will say until something happens that makes my data not so safe...
I have a couple of days left for the bonus, or will stake offer more money closer to January 1st

It is better to do the KYC at once instead of doing it step by step. And I believed even in the registration form in Stake there are some personal information were asked to complete the process and that is the first verification. And that verification is okay because ful name, email and phone number are asked there. And asking KYC in all the time is a delay tactics when you are in the mode to play games.

wow this is really a big bonus. maybe for this bonus you have completed huge wogaring and loss many. but it doesn't matter if you are afford to accept that loss and control your emotion. if you asking for KYC verification then I will tell stake is enough safe gambling site. I am not granted that but from my Long experience I think so. so you can pass your verification without any doubt.

stake.com steel huge popular so I am also gamble on there. I lost a lot of money according to my financial status but I still gamble will there. but for now I am trying to  quit gambling as much as I can. by the way good luck for you

When I first registered, I never got asked for any personal information.
No name, just a plain email address thats it.
It seems those times have ended and a certain degree if KYC is required.
I will just do the KYC and take that bonus of $250.

Im not a losing player at stake, Im probably a bit in the positive and a Plat 3 Member.
Thanks, I will probably just do the KYC and take the "free" Money.
Thanks, hope luck stays with me!

It's based on the VIP level (or maybe other metrics), they only offered me $50
Honestly, I still want to play occasionally, but it's KYC man -- KYC sucks!

With this mandatory level 2 kyc verification, will it also reduce the number of active players at stake?

Not sure man, it will be risky especially if you are from countries that prohibit gambling.
I guess I have no other choice but to do the KYC... sad...

If users who have not done KYC level 2 are required to verify immediately and then get a bonus, then what about those who have completed KYC level 2 a long time ago? have they also received a bonus? or does it only apply to those who have not done KYC? because it will be unfair if those who have done it for a long time do not receive any offers. I just want to know how this rule system works.

Well, I think we all know the answer. I verified like 2-3 years ago and of course I got nothing back then and nothing will be paid now. That's how life goes sometimes, not everything is fair unfortunately
I have read similar complaints and yeah, I understand where they are coming from, but it doesn't change anything. 

On the other hand, at least some players get something, at other sites you get nothing if you go through KYC.

Oh so it's like that, I happened to have done KYC level 2 for quite a long time and with this kind of thing, of course, I was a little disappointed. What can be made if that's the rule. But I hope Stake pays attention to things like this considering not everyone accepts it well. Even as you said complaints occur everywhere, my friend also submitted this problem to the support but the results were zero.

That's a big one. Congratulations.

I never experienced such a big bonus and I guess you are wagering high enough to be able to reach that high amount. Most of the time I can only go as far as $1k wagered amount per day playing casino games, mostly originals.
About the KYC, Stake.com has been in the business for a long time and I never had a problem with them so mandatory KYC is also to protect their business especially after a big case happened that made one popular gambling site pay a high price for making a big mistake. No business would want to pay that high because it will be losses to their income and any businessman would understand that.

Everyone talking about "KYC"

I also got these "emails", with the bonus amount 250$. I guess it's time say goodbye for "non-KYC user, these one mandatory before 1st January 2025. Could be these bonus only for user with still have wagering a couple months/weeks + depending on the VIP rank as well.

My rank is Platinum III. I guess, I will verify now cause getting 250$ . I want to make sure, these needed to be accepted before 2PM (UTC) on Monday 7th of October 2024 ? cause in the Email only with word (IF).

Don't address it as unfair bro. At least it doesn't suit with your recent experience. You had received a sweet amount as birthday bonus from Stake in the last month. Moreover, Stake has boosted the bonuses for KYC verified users a long time ago. As a non verified user, I haven't received those extra bonuses. Verified users are receiving extra bonuses in all sections at Stake. This $250 isn't anything big compared to all those extra amounts which have been received by the verified users until now.

[ralle14]

I got a similar message as well when I checked the site. I also received the same emails and mostly ignored them because I thought it was only optional until they announced this.

Correct, there's an "if" part because once you submit the required images for level 2 KYC it'll be under review.

Lucky you still playing in Stake without being tempted to do KYC for double reward on tournament in Stake forum. I voluntarily completed my level 2 KYC last due to double rewards offer of Stake.

That 250$ bonus for KYC is really worth it since most of the casino ask KYC already promptly right after few withdrawals.

You’re right, you should consider the time frame of KYC approval of Stake in able to be eligible but by experience they approved KYC within a day or 2.

[DiMarxist]

The level 2 reward is big and it looks like a trap or using it to lure gambling participants to submit their KYC because ordinary many would not but with that amount users would submit because they would like to receive the 250$ and use it to play games and if there luck with them that day, they will win big. Be careful with big bait.
I don't know why such amount is given to level up.
