    Whats the pros and cons of Betcoin Raiders?

    Dealing with them about a case of unauthorized transfer of a players bitcoins at moment. They say this is the only reported case of it ever. Ever heard of any issues like that with them before?

    Betcoin claims to have top notch support but I've been using them for 3 years now, their support is awful. They talk themselves up and don't follow thru. What probably happened is someone's account was hacked with a simple password and then the $ was transferred. Bitcoin world has TONS of hackers. I've been hacked for a bitcoin before myself (been in bitcoin for 3 years). If you have any questions about sportsbooks or companies in Bitcoin feel free to ask me any questions about them. Betcoin has good odds but if something goes wrong GOOD LUCK getting quick support.

    Honestly Nitrogen is it. Jetwin is decent but their odds are awful. They have an amazing 100% cash bonus though with only a 5x rollover attached (however the rules are a little annoying such as only first 0.35 BTC wagered per bet option count towards rollover, odds must be at least 1.50, etc). But so far so good - 20% done my rollover and at 2.10 BTC after depositing 0.75.

    Live betting would be nice. Has to have decent limits.

    I like Betcoin because of the -105 in the NFL. Another reason is even if the hold is high in a particular market, you can still get the best price on one side.

    The only major issue that I know of is with a player to player transfer. The player said that he didn't do it.

    They had hiccups along the way with many software upgrades in a short period of time. That seems to be solved along with complaints concerning customer support. They now have 24/7 live chat.

    I think that bitcoin and Bitcoin books are gradually improving every single week but I'm not ready to support it yet as I want to see it really fine tuned

    The good thing is the digital currencies become a very stable currency

    Yup. Payout took a few hours. But they have big limits on major events.

    Bitcoin is up 23% in 35 days. How is that "very stable"? to JJgold 4.0?

    Thanks.

    And that sounds like the same case. Looks like we have come to an amicable solution with that now.

    What makes you say that Nitrogen is the number one book? I realise that it's pretty much all anyone talks about here because they've got a review, and because Raiders obviously loves them, but if you have a look at bitcointalk or a review site like Bitcoin Betting Guide (which is excellent btw) you'll see that there are other sites that are just as good or arguably better - Nitrogen doesn't even have live betting and it's limits aren't especially high either.

    I'm also surprised Directbet.eu doesn't get more interest, I guess because it's a bit different it doesn't appeal to mainstream bettors or recent converts, but it's really very innovative and takes advantage of the bitcoin ecosystem in a unique way. They're spammy as hell in the bitcointalk forums, and their site looks pretty terrible, but if you're interested in bitcoin you should absolutely give it a look. They also have live betting.

    Yeah absolutely tried Cloudbet, I would argue they're the best, and pretty much every bitcoin sportsbook revue site has them ranked #1. Their mobile site is excellent. It used to be a hassle getting live bets to go through (tended to get rejected a lot) but it seems to have improved lately.

    EDIT: Sorry, I'm new here, pressed "reply" instead of "reply with quote" - this is meant to be a reply to jimmy007oc

    I am a big fan of directbet also. Last week getting paid instantly would have been a big hassle, because of long delays in confirmations. I have used them several times ( all soccer) and have been paid a few minutes after final whistle
