Seeking Community Feedback: WagerX Audit Lab & Transparency Project

[NewCryptocasinos]

I’ve been active in the crypto gambling scene since 2015 (some of you might remember my work with newcryptocasinos.com back in 2018). I’m currently building out WagerX.io, and I’m looking for a "3-minute read" from the veterans here on how we are presenting our data.

We are moving away from generic "top 10" lists and toward a technical "Audit Lab" approach that prioritizes community transparency.

1. Best Crypto Casinos (Transparency Focus): https://wagerx.io/best-crypto-casinos Notice the "Direct Thread Access": I’ve integrated direct links to the official Bitcointalk threads for the top-tier casinos. I want users to see exactly what members here are saying before they ever make a deposit.

2. The Audit Lab (Holding Tank & Burn Pile): https://wagerx.io/audit-lab-1 This is where we track "Bad Actors." If you scroll down, you’ll see our Holding Tank (under investigation) Im working very hard on this section now and will upload 9 more casinos today that are bad for players.

I really value the feedback of this board. I have a few questions for the experts:

Is the layout clear enough for a seasoned gambler?

Are there any "Burn Pile" candidates you’ve flagged recently that I’m missing?


💰 Signature Campaign Announcement I want to support the forum that provides the backbone of our community intel. Once the site is 100% polished—aiming for approximately 2 weeks from now—I will be launching an official Bitcointalk Signature Campaign. Stay tuned for the announcement in the coming weeks.


Cheers, Andreas Ericsson

Is the layout clear enough for a seasoned gambler?

It's good, but there's always some room for improvement... The combination of the minimalistic & maximalistic parts initially made me miss or rather ignore some parts, so it'd probably be best to stick to one of them and just have all of the content in a single section, as opposed to three ^{[other users might have different opinions]}.
^{- BTW, may I know the methodology used behind those Bitcointalk ratings?}

Interesting approach. I like the idea of linking directly to Bitcointalk threads instead of abstract scores, that’s usually where real issues surface first. One thing I’d personally value is clearer separation between withdrawal reliability and general UX ratings. Many problems only appear after multiple withdrawals over time, not the first one. Overall, the direction makes sense if the data stays opinion-light and evidence-heavy.

Thank you. Regarding the Bitcointalk rating,

Every time I publish a new Live Testing Note for a casino, which we do every week or at least every second week, I review the relevant Bitcointalk threads. Based on how the discussion is going, and how the casino’s representative is responding (or choosing to ignore questions), we adjust the rating accordingly.

To provide even greater transparency, we have also added direct links to the Bitcointalk threads. This allows visitors to read the original discussions and judge the feedback firsthand.

Thanks, that was exactly the response we were hoping for. I believe in real transparency, rather than having an editor simply put a finger in the air and pick a random score.

We will continue to maintain our own scoring system, as we know this is something many players are looking for. That said, with all the data and documentation we provide, users can easily make their own informed decisions.

We are also very honest in our evaluations. If a casino raises its wagering requirements without informing players, suddenly applies KYC at a later stage on a so-called non-KYC casino after a big win, lowers slot RTPs, or engages in any other practice we consider unfair, the casino goes straight into our holding tank.
