    Nitrogen is a top book. Cloudbet has varying opinions. Nitrogen, Anonibet (top 2), then Jetwin, Betcoin, Casinobitcoin, Cloudbet as the top 6.

    Anonibet has just stopped taking bets from US players. I could not log into my account as of this morning.

    Here's what they say, "Anonibet does not encourage anyone to breach their local laws."

    I tried online proxies but could only get so far. The last one I tried the live betting would not load. This whole thing about not allowing US players makes little sense. They allow it for how long? Even more, their own CS is telling you to use a VPN!

    What's stopping them from saying "you can not cashout as you are not allowed here" if someone hits it big? I'm not taking that chance. They have out of this world horrible odds anyways so maybe it's for the best. I just need to find a bitcoin book with a good live betting parlay option. I mean really, this was one of the advantages of bitcoins and these books! anonymity! It's in their god damn name for christ sake! The whole thing is just so damn bizarre.

    I hear cloudbet is good so they are my next option. Nitro wold be my go to if they had live betting.

    Good luck all...

    You can deposit to DSI with bitcoin and their live betting is very good.

    I just checked out cloudbet. This is the best damn book I have ever seen. No limiting odds. A crap ton of chances with insanely good odds that could make you a dollar millionaire if they hit. It's really hard to explain. It's night and day compared to anonibet.

    In short: if you can not win at least once in awhile with cloudbet gambling is not for you.

    Thanks for this post. I just checked out CloudBet. You're right, the software is much better, and better odds. This is same as the "Live Betting Plus" at 5Dimes.

    Hey, no worries. I'm just shocked. It's like I just discovered sports betting again. Ha...

    I gave up on the "old school" books. I understand some have bitcoin support but from what i'm reading they still have the same BS of faxing ID's, DNA samples etc. etc. and if you are really lucky, you might get your money in a couple days if they like you. These bitcoin books? Seconds to put money in and seconds to get it out. I'm sold. I think all of this makes up for bitcoin still being a little risky.

    Good luck on your bets today tb1984.

    I know it's utter BS. Do this and be done with them:

    1. go here https://hide.me/en/proxy and type in their URL
    2. login and get your money out

    I just did this about a couple of hours ago and got my money back in about 15 minutes.

    Sounds like they are under fed pressure and think if they act dumb they don't need to comply.

    biff- you may not want to give up on Anonibet. Their live betting is top notch. Their margins are high but you still get the best price on one side many times.

    It was the same when I could play at SIA. Big margins in some markets but you could still get the best price on one side.

    It's just an electronic currency and is safe. In 2011, Anonibet was the first sportsbook to accept bitcoins.

    These are some ways to buy bitcoins:

    Localbitcoins.com
    Coinbase.com
    Circle.com
    Trucoin.com

    Selling through localbitcoins is nice since you can get above market price.

    Local Bitcoins allows sellers and buyers who are located nearby to meet and exchange Bitcoins through various methods including cash, wire transfer, Money Bookers, Skrill and more. Local Bitcoins offers a Bitcoin escrow service that holds the funds until the transaction is complete, therefore reducing fraud.
    Some of these books have been around a while.

    Anonibet 2011
    Nitrogen 2012
    a lot opened in 2013.


    There are many books and some fly by nights. These are the only ones that I would suggest playing at:

    Anonibet
    Nitrogen
    Jetwin
    Betcoin
    Casinobitcoin
    Cloudbet

    Everyone has been paid by these books and I can't remember one time that they claimed bad line. I'm sure that will occur down the line but hasn't to date.

    This was printed in the newbie version and is bad information
    • PayPal doesn't like bitcoin, as the bitcoin network is in direct competition to it. They will ban accounts that have anything to do with Bitcoins, and freeze their balance.

    The price of Bitcoin is plummeting because of the disappearance of the Deep-Web Evolution(similar to SilkRoad).

    Add me to those liking Nitrogen. It's really not a good idea to multi-account with any of the bitcoin books.

    I agree with you about Nitrogen, they're really good. They need to have live-in betting.

    At first I thought cloudbet was good, but after I played there, I realized that they don't consistently have bets like anonibet. So, I'm still at anonibet.

    Also, you should try betvip for live-in betting, I really want to play there but they strictly don't take U.S players.

    I'm new coming into the bitcoin realm and was wonder if any of you experienced enough that could give advice.

    #1- Does Cloudbet accept US bettors? If not who? I looked on the review links for several sites but no restricted countries were listed.
    #2- Any chance a site like 5Dimes who ACCEPTS bitcoins.. will allow a withdraws in bitcoins?
    #3- Best place to purchase bitcoins?

    I'm attracted by the anonymity of bitcoin, plus a site like Cloudbet has the high amount of options I am looking for.

    Raiders is the expert. Cloudbet does accept u.s. and 5dimes can payout with Bitcoin. I use localbitcoins for buying and selling. Hope that helps
