AC88 has many funding options, bitcoin is just one. I use ecopayz and bitcoin at AC88. They also accept Skrill.

Maybe you found advantages with less price variance, quicker delivery, less confirmation, lower fees, etc.

ac88 & fairlay take only bitcoin, & ac88 holds funds in bitcoin, right?

Also, no book holds funds in a different coin, no?

Per SBR only 6 books HOLD in Bitcoin: nitro, betpoint, sportbet, cloudbet, anonibet, bitcoinrush.

I found elsewhere a list of those who take various coins:

Bovada – Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash
BetOnline – Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Ethereum, Litecoin, DASH
SportsBetting – Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Ethereum, Litecoin, DASH
5Dimes – Bitcoin
BetDSI – Bitcoin, Ethereum, DASH
BookMaker – Bitcoin, 50+ altcoins
MyBookie – Bitcoin
GTBets – Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Litecoin

If you can add any thoughts, edits or additions it would really help, thank you.

Betcoin also holds in BTC and they accept many cryptos.

Fairlay accepts balances of many coins

Unsure if you can bet with them though

Asked support for clarification will report back

AC88 does not hold funds in bitcoin.

Thanks for each and every reply.
Trying to stay ahead of bitcoin rally- which looks permanent- and any other alternate increasing more percentage-wise.
Looks like there's no book allowing betting in ANOTHER coin.
Still, there remain strategy nuances for maximizing net profits like which coin / currency to hold funds while in the book & in one's possession. For starters, there's no apparent reason to have any cash in the bank, only in the fastest rising coin in a multi-currency + multi-coin wallet. Plus to hold/bet in crypto if given the option. Then, if quick conversions/cashouts are needed, there's a question for another thread: has anyone offered to pay any cashing out fees to the book in order to do it at will.

Thanks for adding this. Follow up would be to find out if it's better for one to convert x coin to bitcoin before sending or allowing book to do it.

This would be tough with so many books. The problem to solve is an FX one-- with a bit-only account, does it make a difference which base currency... Thanks.

PS Some reading this might think it's overcomplicating things--why not stick to preferred book(s), but not all books offer all sports plus types of lines & bets, or the necessary plentiful & timely cashouts, to say nothing of odds differences or needing to use another book to scalp, bypass max limits, look less sharp, etc.

For example, I can only make good and steady money with high plus odds, alternate lines & bet types, hedging, live betting, and horses.
Traditional betting of grinding out minus odds & withstanding bankroll swings is not worth the time today-- better off day trading crypto, fx, or securities options.
