How crypto deposits and withdrawals work

The cashier shows a deposit address, and a network, for the coin you choose. You send the amount from your wallet or exchange account, the network confirms the transaction and the bookmaker credits the betting account after the number of confirmations its cashier states: about ten minutes a block on Bitcoin, twelve seconds on Ethereum, three on Tron. Withdrawals wait for the bookmaker’s approval and then arrive within minutes of broadcast.

There is no percentage fee and no bookmaker fee as a rule: you pay the network fee, which the sender sets and which depends on how busy the network is, plus whatever your exchange charges to buy and withdraw the coin. For stablecoins the network is the main cost decision: the same USDT costs a few cents to move on Tron and more on Ethereum when the network is busy.

Send a small test amount first, check that the network in your wallet matches the one in the cashier, and read the bonus terms: USDT is the coin crypto bookmakers price their bonuses in.

Questions and answers

Which coin do most bookmakers accept?

Bitcoin (43 of 65 on this site) and Ethereum (39); USDT is in 11 cashiers and USDC in 2. The five crypto-only bookmakers take all four.

Are crypto deposits anonymous?

No. The transaction is public on the blockchain, the bookmaker still verifies your identity under its licence, and exchanges apply the same checks. What crypto spares you is giving the bookmaker a card or bank account.

Which network should I use for USDT?

The one the cashier offers at the lowest fee, usually Tron (TRC-20); Ethereum (ERC-20) costs more when the network is busy. Sending on the wrong network loses the money, so match the network in your wallet to the one in the cashier.
