An Introduction to Using Cryptocurrency for Online Betting & Exploring Bet105

Posted on by Josh P

One firm that only accepts crypto for betting is Bet105, an up-and-coming firm which is classified as an offshore bookmaker – one that operates outside of traditional regulation.

Offshore bookmakers aren’t new. Well-established names like BetOnline and Betcris/Bookmaker have built strong reputations by offering competitive odds and welcoming sharp bettors. They also differentiate themselves from traditional markets by focusing on cryptocurrencies for deposits and withdrawals due to the aforementioned advantages vs. fiat currencies (i.e. £, $ and €)

While Bet105 share these characteristics, what sets them apart is their willingness to accept players from regions where many competitors do not, including the UK and other parts of Europe. They put the onus on you as the individual to understand the rules and legality of betting from where you are based.

Those behind Bet105 are respected figures in the betting industry, with several well-known professional bettors publicly endorsing them in recent months.

An Introduction to Using Cryptocurrency for Online Betting

Posted on by Peter Ling

Cryptocurrency is transforming the online betting landscape, offering a fast, secure, and private way to fund gambling activities. More bookmakers, brokers, and bettors are embracing crypto as the go-to method for deposits and withdrawals.

In this guide, we’ll walk you through how to get started, from where to purchase crypto to the best ways to deposit and withdraw with bookmakers that support it.

While some areas of the crypto world have a mixed reputation, its role in betting is straightforward: it functions as a convenient and efficient currency for funding accounts and cashing out winnings.

This is why an increasing number of bookmakers are adopting cryptocurrency as a payment method—in some cases, the only option available. 

With the growing influence of crypto-friendly policies in the US, its presence in betting and by extension – modern day life, is expected to expand even further.
