5 features a great casino will never skimp on (and neither should you)

There are TONS of online casinos out there. Every year, new online casinos are popping up. Some licenced, some not. Some great, many average. Some legit, others… not so much.

With all of these choices (and very little direction), how do you ensure that you’re choosing a casino that is valuable? One that ensures premium entertainment, maximum bonuses, and absolute fair gaming? That’s where we come in.

We’ll guide you through the 5 features a great casino will always have, and which you should never skimp on.

Naturally, Punt Casino has all of these (and more), so if you haven’t created your account with us yet, do it now!

Play at Punt

Let’s take a look at 5 crucial things every brilliant online casino has in common.

5 Features of a Great Casino: #1 Sensational Games

This is where many casinos differ. You’ll notice that some casinos offer a small selection of games, which may be quite limiting if you’re a player that prefers variety. Others offer an impressive variety, and tick all of the gaming category boxes.

At Punt Casino, we literally have thousands of games. These include a solid selection of the finest slots, table games such as blackjack and roulette (as well as many of their varieties), video poker, and specialty games such as poker.

Play Now

Why this matters: Much of your win potential is determined by the type of games a casino offers. Additionally, many casinos have bonuses with wagering requirements – which means that you’ll need to wager on games in order to cash out your winnings. If a casino has a lousy variety of games, or doesn’t offer high-value slots with a decent RTP, you’ll be sorely disappointed, and those wins will trickle in snail-pace style.

Quality wins (and games) are only possible if the casino has partnered with premium providers. Punt has – including the likes of award-winning brands such as BetSoft and Tom Horn Gaming.

5 Features of a Great Casino: #2 Bangin’ bonuses

I mean, this one is pretty obvious. Casino bonuses are a massive drawcard for any online gambler. An enticing welcome bonus, generous promotions, and real-world giveaways are massively alluring. Any player who wants to experience the thrill of a win, or who wants to be rewarded for their gameplay, will be looking for a casino offering impressive bonuses.

Punt’s welcome bonus is hella cool

If you play at Punt, you already know that we’ve got this one down on lock. We start you off with an epic crypto welcome bonus: up to 6 BTC and $25 Free Chip. Read more about how to claim this here.

Then, we continue to shower you in spoils with weekly bonuses in the form of deposit matches.

Deposit match bonuses to keep you winning

 

Make Monday blues a think of the past with a generous deposit match, which is yours to claim every single Monday thanks to Punt’s GM Reload promotion.

 

Then, log on any day of the week and make the most of Punt’s brilliant Blockbuster Bonus, a tiered offering where you decide how much you want to play with.

Keep your eyes peeled for promotional drops on the reg – follow us on social to stay on the pulse, and add us to your safe senders in your mailbox so you never miss out!

5 Features of a Great Casino: #3 Super safe payment methods

Safety is obviously a huge priority. It’s important to have the peace of mind that comes with playing at a legit casino that takes your security seriously.

The benefit of playing at a crypto casino

When you play at a crypto casino, you are automatically benefiting from higher levels of security than a traditional online casino offering only fiat currencies. This is because crypto casinos such as Punt completely do away with third party payment providers. Blockchain technology keeps you safe whenever you transact at our casino, and all of the cryptocurrencies we offer are completely safe and trustworthy.

5 Features of a Great Casino: #4 Excellent customer support

There is nothing more frustrating than bad service. It’s the pet peeve of many. If your customer service sucks, it’s a surefire way to ensure a steady decline in customers.

Support agents are there to do just that – support you in your time of need! At Punt Casino, we promise to never blue tick you. Our support staff are available 24/7 to assist you with any query you may have. And if you prefer to avoid human interaction at all costs, we’ve covered everything in our FAQ.

Same, girl. Same.

5 Features of a Great Casino: #5 Seamless navigation and site speed

This is a no-brainer. Imagine logging on to your favourite social site, streaming site, or gaming site. It doesn’t matter what site it is – if it takes ages to load, you’ll likely be outta there faster than you can say ‘thank u, next’.

Human beings are so used to instant gratification that there’s really no debate. If a site takes too long, or if games buffer, you’re probably not at a casino that takes gaming as seriously as we do.

Great casinos ensure that their site loads with lightning-speed, that their games render flawlessly on desktop and mobile, and that navigating their site is a breeze.

In summary: 5 features great casinos share

Now that you know the 5 features of a great casino, we’re sure you’ll never settle for less again. Make sure that you’re signed up with Punt Casino to immediately experience the best of the best:

  1. An enticing and varied game selection
  2. Exceptional bonuses
  3. Secure payment methods
  4. Excellent customer support
  5. Intuitive navigation and fast site speed

Punt Casino explains how the Bitcoin price reached $1,000 for the first time.

How Bitcoin Reached $1000 for the First Time

November 23, 2022

How Bitcoin Reached $1000 for the First Time

November 23, 2022

When Bitcoin Hit $1000, the World was a Very Different Place

There aren’t many people still in the crypto space who were around when “Bitcoin $1000” was creating headlines. Of those that still are, even fewer would have thought such an achievement was possible when it was languishing at just $2 two years prior. How did this momentous piece of Bitcoin price history happen? Let’s find out.

 

The two-dollar bear market

It’s November 2011. Barack Obama is approaching his third year in office, the world is getting back on its feet after the financial crisis, and Bitcoin is floundering. 5 months earlier, it had been riding high at $30, with illicit marketplace Silk Road giving Bitcoin its first use case and propelling it to unthinkable highs. But then, suddenly, the fun stopped.

Between November 2011 and June 2012, Bitcoin lost 82% of its value as exchange after exchange was hacked. Millions of dollars from users were lost in the process, and confidence was lost. This led to many of the remaining holders selling up and leaving the space, as the experiment seemed dead and buried. Six months after hitting its all time high, Bitcoin was again languishing at just $2.

This crash led to the first real exposure of Bitcoin in the mainstream media. Many news outlets covered the Bitcoin bubble, and very few were complimentary – even those that understood it. The rise of Silk Road was a major talking point, with a leaked FBI report from April 2012 stating that Bitcoin would “become an increasingly useful tool for various illegal activities beyond the cyber realm.”

 

Stagnation to recovery

2012 was a year of stagnation for Bitcoin, with many wondering if its best years were already behind it. However, the price slowly rose over the year. It regaining double figures by August, aided by an increase in adoption. Blogging site WordPress announced that it was accepting bitcoin while French exchange Bitcoin Central gained a banking license, resulting in a slew of positive headlines and a much-needed reputation boost for the cryptocurrency.

WordPress started accepting Bitcoin payments in 2012, which eventually helped Bitcoin reach $1000.

By early 2013 there were definite green shoots as payment processor BitPay surpassed 10,000 bitcoin transactions without one incident of fraud. Of course, this poured cold water on the claims that bitcoin was only used for nefarious means. All this positivity, coupled with the pressure of 18 months worth of consolidation, led to the building of a powder keg that exploded at the very start of 2013. Bitcoin ran from $13.30 to $230 within four months without pausing for breath.

 

The Cyprus factor

There was an important factor behind Bitcoin’s rise in early 2013, and one that brought its basis as a decentralized currency to the fore. The Mediterranean island of Cyprus was gripped by a financial crisis at the time, which resulted in the government and central bank deciding to tax bank deposits as a way of raising $7.5 billion.

The authorities also enforced withdrawal restrictions to avoid potential bank runs. This led to negative headlines across the globe and forced citizens to seek out cash alternatives. It didn’t take long for Bitcoin to grab their attention, and Cypriots began using it to store their wealth.

When a financial rescue package was implemented and the restrictions were lifted, it was expected that things would return to normal.

They didn’t, however. Cypriots, no longer trusting their financial overlords, rushed to withdraw their funds, many using them to buy the un-taxable, un-confiscatable, Bitcoin. This run to $230 was a stick in the eye for the critics, and highlighted Bitcoin’s elegant design. Finally… there was another way.

 

Silk Road arrest is a springboard

Of course, all good things must come to an end, and Bitcoin’s early rally faded. By July 2013 it was back to $67, leaving many wondering if they were in for another 18-month bear market. If anyone was in any doubt as to the role that Silk Road was playing in Bitcoin’s success at this time, they only needed to look at what happened on October 2, 2013.

Silk Road’s founder, Ross Ulbricht, was arrested in San Francisco – Bitcoin’s price plunged from $125 to $100 within just 90 minutes of the news coming out. This was followed by days of negative stories worldwide about Bitcoin and its connection with Silk Road. It seemed that a bear market was a certainty, and that Bitcoin’s price history would forever show that $230 was the top of the bull run.

However, as many of us know, Bitcoin is a one for doing the opposite of what anyone expects, and this was no different. Buyers gobbled up the 20% discount and Bitcoin was back at its pre-arrest price within a week – boom! Not only that, it did what it had done at the start of the year and simply took off, doubling in price in less than a month and kicking off a second bull run of 2013 that almost no one had predicted.

 

China bitten by the bug

Again, geopolitics played a part in this second bull run. Seemingly from nowhere, the Chinese middle-class began throwing their money at Bitcoin. Demand was so high that when Bitcoin crossed $500 in November, some Chinese exchanges were pricing Bitcoin at $1000.

The reason why Chinese investors were rushing to Bitcoin was, again, down to its decentralized nature. It was perfect for getting around China’s tight capital controls, which prevented rich Chinese citizens from moving too much money overseas. Suddenly, they could transfer their money internationally, without catching the gaze of the authorities.

Another reason why Bitcoin’s price was able to take off, was Mt. Gox, a Tokyo-based exchange which launched in July 2010. Mt. Gox was the template on which all Bitcoin exchanges have since been built. By November 2013 it had hoovered up users from all other platforms and became the biggest Bitcoin exchange in the world. 

This influx of investment into Bitcoin and the ease-of-trade it presented had the obvious effect. The price of Bitcoin jumped 400% in the space of three weeks to November 30, when Bitcoin reached $1,000 for the first time. This run turned many early investors into millionaires practically overnight, and dashed all fears that the Silk Road affair would kill Bitcoin.

 

A memorable time – bitcoin finally reached $1000

The Bitcoin $1000 run took in some of the biggest stories in its history. It allowed the world to see for the first time the power of a borderless, decentralized currency. Mainstream media outlets that had predicted Bitcoin’s demise were forced to eat their words.

Although, the other side of this historic run allowed them once more to stick the knife into Bitcoin. Less than a week after the Bitcoin $1000 milestone was surpassed, China banned any financial and payment institutions from dealing with Bitcoin-handling companies. As a result, Mt. Gox went bankrupt a month or so later, having lost 850,000 bitcoin to hackers.

Those who were around will remember the Bitcoin run to $1,000 with great pleasure, particularly, because it came on the back of the predictions of Bitcoin’s demise following the collapse of Silk Road. This event, one that all early-adopters will remember forever, remains a pivotal time in Bitcoin’s price history.

Learn more about the XRP vs SEC lawsuit at Punt Casino.

What is the XRP SEC Lawsuit All About?

What is the XRP SEC Lawsuit All About?

November 23, 2022

Blog » Posts tagged "Crypto" (Page 3)

The XRP SEC Lawsuit Continues to Rumble On

When the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) charged Ripple with an unregistered sale of securities in December 2020, the shock among the Ripple hierarchy and fan base was palpable. Despite many other crypto projects pulled by the SEC for similar “offenses”, the Ripple community was aghast that the sale of XRP tokens, which dated back to 2013, was only now being investigated.

The XRP case has been the most high-profile example yet in the long-running criticism of the SEC’s handling of crypto projects, where the utility of tokens is often ignored. The result? Utter confusion for the crypto projects trying to operate within the confines of the law. After two years, we finally have an expected XRP lawsuit outcome. While it benefits Ripple, the settlement won’t help the overall crypto community at all.

 

What is a security?

The lawsuit against Ripple was filed in December of 2020, but stems from 2 years’ worth of efforts by the SEC to bring crypto projects that it claims had sold their tokens in a manner that constitutes as a sale of securities. A ‘security’ is defined by Investopedia as being “a fungible, negotiable financial instrument that represents some type of financial value, usually in the form of a stock, bond, or option.”

The concept was crystalized in the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Both of these Acts were formed in the wake of the Wall Street Crash of 1929 and the Great Depression that followed.

From then on, anyone wishing to sell a security was required to register as an authorized seller of securities with the SEC. Either that, or risk a fine and possibly the closure of their business.

 

The “Howey Test”

These new laws were first put to the test in a 1946 landmark case – SEC vs. Howey – the result of which has paved the way for thousands of rulings on securities ever since, even in the crypto sector. The W.J. Howey Company and the Howey-in-the-Hills Service owned large tracts of citrus-growing land in Lake County, Florida – half of which were offered to the public in an attempt to help the companies finance “additional development”.

According to the SEC, most of the purchasers of this land did not possess the “knowledge, skill, and equipment necessary for the care and cultivation of citrus trees” and so, should have been viewed as speculators, hoping to make a profit through the endeavors of others who would actually work the land. This, they argued, made the land a security. The defendants, on the other hand, argued that they were just selling land, and it was up to others to do with it as they pleased.

A cartoon depicting the lawsuit between The Howey Company vs. SEC in 1946.

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled that:

“[…] the transactions in this case clearly involve investment contracts, as so defined. The respondent companies are offering something more than fee simple interests in land […] they are offering an opportunity to contribute money and to share in the profits of a large citrus fruit enterprise.”

 

The Howey Test Criteria

This case resulted in the all-important “Howey Test” for Securities, which includes 4 criteria that must be met for a sale to be considered a security:

  • There is an investment of money
  • There is an expectation of profits
  • The investment of money is in a common enterprise
  • Any profit comes from the efforts of a promoter or third party

This test has been used by the SEC to claim that dozens of cryptocurrencies, especially those sold through ICOs, were sold as securities. This resulted in tens of millions of dollars in fines for those who either settled, or went to court and lost. To date, only one crypto project has beaten the SEC in court over a securities case.

 

And now… it’s Ripple’s turn

In December of 2020, it was Ripple’s turn to feel the SEC’s wrath. And the SEC, as before, pulled no punches when it came to its accusations:

“From at least 2013 through the present, Defendants sold over 14.6 billion units of a digital asset security called “XRP,” in return for cash or other consideration worth over $1.38 billion U.S. Dollars (“USD”) to fund Ripple’s operations and enrich Larsen and Garlinghouse. Defendants undertook this distribution without registering their offers and sales of XRP with the SEC as required by the federal securities laws, and no exemption from this requirement applied.”

Ripple (XRP) vs the SEC in court.

The SEC, as it always does on these occasions, sought “injunctive relief, disgorgement with prejudgment interest, and civil penalties.”

While these differ from case to case, Block.One, the creator of the EOS blockchain, settled with the SEC for $24 million after the agency labeled its $4.1 billion ICO an unregistered sale of securities.

 

Ripple defends

Ripple tried to get the XRP lawsuit dropped, using the same defense that many other crypto projects have put up (almost always unsuccessful). They argued that the XRP token has utility rather than just being an investment that buyers only bought because they thought it would increase in value through the work of Ripple Labs:

“XRP performs a number of functions that are distinct from the functions of “securities” as the  law has understood that term for decades. For example, XRP functions as a medium of exchange — a virtual currency used today in international and domestic transactions — moving value between jurisdictions and facilitating transactions. It is not a security and the SEC has no authority to regulate it as one.”

This argument, that cryptocurrencies are almost always designed as a utility token for the blockchain in question, is the core issue that has set the SEC at odds with crypto users and developers for years. The SEC says this is an excuse to attract investors. Developers, however, say that their tokens are crucial to the operation of the ecosystem.

Security Tokens vs Utility Tokens.

Developers also complain that the SEC is very quick to enforce its rules after a project has launched, but has never offered clear guidelines on how it wants blockchains to roll out tokens in a legal manner. This argument is certainly valid. There is currently no framework in place from the SEC to help developers navigate securities laws. They just get punished when their utility token is judged to be a security.

 

SEC has precedent on its side

Only a handful of crypto companies have taken on the SEC when charged with securities violations – the rest have settled. The first to try its luck, was Kik. The founder, Ted Livingston, was extremely open about his desire to meet the SEC in court over their charges. He felt that a victory for Kik would act as the first step toward establishing guidelines.

The KIK messenger app vs the SEC.

However, Kik lost in October 2020 – no surprises there. The judge ruled that the “undisputed facts show Kik offered and sold securities without a registration statement or exemption from registration.”

More recently, the decentralized media platform LBRY lost its legal battle with the SEC over whether its LBC token should be classified as a security. But the judge ruled that “the SEC is correct that potential investors would understand that LBRY was pitching a speculative value proposition for its digital token”.

These two defeats didn’t help Ripple’s cause at all. The SEC is now able to point to legal precedent to bolster its claims, making it even less likely that Ripple would get the XRP SEC lawsuit dropped.

 

Ripple will settle

The legal battle between Ripple and the SEC has been an attritional affair. Multiple motions have been debated, awarded, and denied. Still, little progress has been made with no XRP SEC lawsuit date being penciled in.

However, Ripple may have found itself a lifeline. In September, following almost two years of battle and no XRP SEC lawsuit end date on the horizon, both Ripple and the SEC came together to ask the judge to come to a settlement figure.

This came after Ripple scored a number of wins regarding evidence that the SEC wanted kept out of the case. It resulted in the judge accusing the SEC of not acting out of “a faithful allegiance to the law”, and also of “hypocrisy” in its treatment of key evidence in the case.

This XRP SEC lawsuit update was greeted enthusiastically by those faithful to Ripple. The settlement figure will most likely be lower than if Ripple had lost the case, but there is still no official XRP lawsuit end date. The judge has many factors to take into consideration, but there is now no chance of Ripple getting the XRP lawsuit dropped.

While the outcome is great for Ripple, it will add little clarity to the issue of when cryptocurrencies are considered securities and when they’re not, leaving the crypto sector firmly at square one on that front.

How to Explain Bitcoin to Your Family This Thanksgiving from Punt Casino.

How to Explain Bitcoin to Your Family This Thanksgiving

November 22, 2022

Blog » Posts tagged "Crypto" (Page 3)

Explaining Bitcoin to Your Family this Thanksgiving, Made Easy

Home for Thanksgiving this year? If so, then like many a Gen Z or Millennial man or woman heading home for the festivities, you may be bombarded with questions about Bitcoin.

But only because you’re the most trend-savvy peep at the table, and because cousin Amy’s bustling “Gamer_Girl.94” Instagram page with links to her $3 Thanksgiving special on Onlyfans makes for an uncomfortable conversation, even though she accepts Bitcoin as payment (good luck explaining THAT one to the fam).

But yes, with all the hype around cryptos and Bitcoin in the past few years, it’s bound to come up as a topic at the dinner table – this Thanksgiving or the next. So, this begs the question: how do you explain Bitcoin to your family without them staging an intervention with the neighbor’s shrink or the priest from the local parish? 

Perhaps we can shed some light on this tricky situation with a few tips.

 

It’s real, it’s money, and it’s here to stay

Okay, so most of the family has probably heard of Bitcoin before, and they may have a few questions, usually starting off as statements: “it’s not real money… is it?” or “criminals use it to launder money… don’t they?”

Regardless of the question, as the crypto community’s representative at your Thanksgiving dinner table, it’s your job to produce the right answers. Start by telling them that Bitcoin is, indeed, real money, just in a digital form.

Explain that Bitcoin is not only like real money, but in some ways, also resembles stocks. Bitcoin can be used to buy goods and services just like regular money can, but fluctuates in value according to supply and demand, just like stocks do.

Try to avoid terms such as “blockchain” or “cryptography” in the beginning, and focus on explaining how digital currencies are simply the next step in the evolution of finance. 

 

“But, where does Bitcoin come from?”

This is probably the next question they’re going to ask, and it’s better to stick to the basics with this one. Of course, Bitcoin mining is an integral part of crypto and how it works, and you’ll need to explain this very carefully without losing the family altogether.

Cartoon image of a bitcoin miner.

One of the best ways to explain Bitcoin mining to noobs is to compare it to a mountain. Let’s see how this could go:

“You can think of Bitcoin as a mountain, and in this mountain, there are 21 million Bitcoins. Just like scarce resources such as gold, coal, and copper are mined, so are Bitcoins. Bitcoin miners extract Bitcoins from this mountain (blockchain) using specialized computers, and receive a reward in new Bitcoins generated from the process.”

See? Easy! You’ll also need to touch on the fact that just like the dollar is split into pennies and dimes, Bitcoins are also split up into smaller denominations, called Satoshis. This makes the currency easier to distribute and exchange in smaller amounts.

 

Explain the uses – stick to the basics

Whether you’re looking to persuade your family into investing in Bitcoin or simply just filling them in on how it works, they’ll definitely want to know what it can be used for. Fortunately, answering this one is a little easier: 

“Whatever you can use real money for, you can use Bitcoin for the same things – almost anything and everything (just ask cousin Amy). However, since Bitcoin is digital, you can’t exactly waltz into the corner café and expect to buy bread and milk using Bitcoin – unless the merchant accepts it, of course.”

Bitcoin is accepted by many small merchants and businesses worldwide.

“The online world is where Bitcoin thrives. You can purchase all sorts of goods and services online using bitcoin. Many Bitcoin users also choose to invest their coins, as volatile markets with huge spikes in value have made many a rich man, but of course, some have lost on it too,” – don’t mention anything about FTX unless it comes up – save that for Easter when things have calmed down.

 

“How do I get Bitcoin?” Aunt Valerie is sold

Some of your family members may not need much convincing before getting hooked on the idea of Bitcoin, and will probably ask where to get it. In this instance, it’s better to explain how YOU go about acquiring your Bitcoin or other cryptos, as this makes further questioning on the subject much easier down the line, and you’ll know exactly how to guide them through the process.

Touch on the use of crypto wallets by conveying that they are simply a digital means of storing your funds. Explaining how blockchain works, on the other hand, might be a little tricky. Just stick to the basics – “it’s a digital ledger that records all transactions and is visible to the public without exposing anyone’s identity.” Voila.

You can also direct them to a few crypto exchanges that offer wallets such as Coinbase or Binance – there is loads of information on using bitcoin and how to get your hands on it (for those that seem keen to get in on the crypto game).

 

Why is Bitcoin important?

Not only does Bitcoin offer many advantages over fiat, such as faster, safer, and cheaper transactions online, but it has also come to be a valuable value storage asset, and is even compared to gold. Bitcoin has been able to withstand economic challenges better than fiat money in the past, which is why many use it to store value during a financial crisis.

And yes, it is very volatile, and with all that’s been happening in the crypto space of late, prices have plummeted. But just like before, they’re bound to pick up again. Moreover, Bitcoin and most other cryptocurrencies run on decentralized blockchains, so governments and central banks can’t control or regulate the currencies.

This means that you have complete control over your funds, which by the way, sit on a virtually unhackable blockchain that is maintained by a peer-to-peer network of independent nodes.

Advantages and disadvantages of Bitcoin.

Whether you like it or not, crypto adoption is taking place at an exponential rate, with many major companies and even governments looking at incorporating blockchain technology into their current operations. 

As we said, crypto is the next step in financial evolution, and although the currencies of the future may not be Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, or the rest, but may very well be based on the technology behind these revolutionary cryptos.

 

Tell your family about Bitcoin this Thanksgiving – it’s easy to do!

Well, that should be enough for you to cover the Bitcoin topic until Christmas and still give you enough time to stuff your face with turkey, stuffing, and pumpkin pie at the dinner table before it gets cold. And if they want more info, ask cousin Amy to elaborate – that should be a bit of fun!

Happy Thanksgiving, folks. And we hope you enjoy the festivities. But don’t forget to visit Punt for upcoming Thanksgiving promotional offers with all the bonus stuffing you need to fill up on those big wins.

How to Deposit Doge at Punt Casino

The meme that rocked the crypto world and wagged its tail up the ranks to become one of the most popular gambling coins in existence – welcome to the top Doge casino, USA. If you want to start gambling with Dogecoin, you’re definitely barking up the right tree, because Punt Casino is about to set you up woof some top-notch Doge gambling entertainment.

What is Dogecoin all about and how can it be used for gambling online? We’re going to reveal it all, and how YOU can deposit Doge easily to play online casino games right here, at everyone’s favorite crypto casino.

 

What is Dogecoin all about?

Dogecoin (DOGE) is one of the most popular cryptocurrencies on the market today, but its origin stems back to a peculiar internet meme that began trending in 2013. 

The meme, an inner monologue displaying an image of the famous Shiba Inu dog, became so popular that Doge creators Billy Markus and Jackson Palmer decided to coin the acclaim with a practical joke that is now a top-ranking crypto, and oh boy, did it take off.

Dogecoin meme featuring Shiba Inu dog with the phrase "to the moon".

“To the Moon”. A meme phrase that helped put Dogecoin on the map and now seen in what feels like billions of memes from around the world.

Speaking of billions, Elon Musk, the world’s richest man and one of the many celebrity endorsers of Dogecoin (even proclaimed the “Dogefather”), was a big driving force behind Doge’s success over the past years. He even pecked at the possibility of it being Mars’ native currency.

As for the crypto itself, the Dogecoin blockchain was forked from Lucky Coin – which was forked from Litecoin, and even markets itself as the “fun” version of Bitcoin. However, unlike Bitcoin, it is considered an inflationary coin, as there is no maximum supply of coins that can ever be mined. Using the coin to play at Doge casino US sites holds a few benefits too, so let’s check them out.

 

Why use Doge for gambling?

If you’re looking to play at a Doge deposit casino such as Punt, you’ll be happy to know that Dogecoin offers a few great benefits for online gambling, which are:

  1. Faster deposits and withdrawals – Dogecoin and other cryptos allow faster transaction speeds than fiat currencies, meaning you can deposit and withdraw at Doge-accepting casinos almost instantly.
  2. Cheaper fees on transactions – Cryptos offer lower fees on transactions than fiat currencies and Dogecoin transactions are even cheaper than both Bitcoin and Ethereum.
  3. Increased Security – Doge uses decentralized blockchain technology which is almost impossible to hack thanks to its widespread governance and complicated programming.
  4. Privacy – Unlike fiat casinos, crypto casinos that accept Doge won’t require much of your personal information to register. Also, your personal info is not tied to Doge transactions – only your numeric Doge deposit and receiving addresses are used.
  5. Doge casino bonuses – It’s no secret that crypto casinos generally offer bigger bonuses for players to take advantage of. The Welcome Package at Punt, for example, offers up to 6 BTC (or Doge equivalent) and a $25 Free Chip for all new players over the first 3 deposits.

Punt Casino’s Welcome Package offers up to 6 BTC in bonus funds and 100 free spins with the first 3 deposits.

LTC Casino: How to Deposit in 6 Easy Steps

November 14, 2022

Blog » Posts tagged "Crypto" (Page 3)

LTC Casinos: Depositing Made Simple

Dubbed ‘the silver to bitcoin’s gold’, litecoin was one of the first altcoins in circulation – having been developed a mere two years after bitcoin.

Since then, LTC casino business has been booming – with a steady increase in the popularity of LTC casinos due to its many benefits, including the ability to gamble anonymously.

 

 

4 reasons why LTC casinos are so popular

If you’re interested in using litecoin to gamble, then you’ll be thrilled to know that this is a top choice for many novice and seasoned gamblers. LTC gambling is advantageous for myriad reasons, some of which we’ve outlined below:

  1. Deposit and withdraw using litecoin from anywhere in the world
  2. Enjoy lower transaction fees
  3. Have your deposits and withdrawals processed with super-speed
  4. Benefit from heavily fortified transactions thanks to secure cryptography

Now that you know how immensely beneficial LTC casinos are, it’s time to look into LTC casino deposits. Let’s get started!

 

How to deposit at an LTC casino

Not all casinos have litecoin deposits as an option – but you’ll never have to worry about that at Punt Casino, where multiple cryptocurrencies are supported, and you can deposit using bitcoin, bitcoin cash, ethereum, binance coin, and ripple!

 

Here’s how to get started depositing with litecoin:

If you’re new to the world of crypto, you most likely don’t have a crypto wallet set up yet. No sweat – it’s incredibly easy to set one up. We’ve outlined the steps you need to follow to create a crypto wallet here.

Open a crypto wallet to deposit your litecoin.

You will need to use this crypto wallet to purchase your litecoin, and to deposit into your Punt account.

Once that’s sorted, there are two ways that you can deposit litecoin into your account:

 

Option 1: By making use of the quick deposit window on Punt’s homepage

When you make a deposit using the quick deposit window, you’re able to create an account, make your deposit, and claim the first part of your welcome bonus (125% up to 3 BTC and $25 Free Chip) simultaneously.

Quick deposit window at Punt Casino.

 

Option 2: By logging in and navigating straight to the cashier

If you want to sign up at Punt Casino, but don’t want to make a deposit straight off the bat, you can do so through this method.

Simply click on the blue Sign Up button at the top left of your screen. Enter your details (email, password, and preferred currency). Once you’ve completed the sign up process, navigate to the Punt Cashier.

Next, select your deposit amount (or enter it manually). Choose Litecoin as your deposit method. Then, click Deposit.

Copy the web address and paste this into your crypto wallet. Alternatively, scan the QR code for even quicker access. Then, deposit the amount that you chose in the deposit window into your crypto wallet.

Once the deposit has been verified and approved, your funds will instantly appear in your account! If you’ve taken up your welcome bonus, that will appear in your account, too.

 

It’s that easy! Now, the real fun begins

Next – it’s time to explore the thousands of games at your disposal, and benefit from a premium litecoin casino experience from the moment you start playing.

Why Should I Gamble with Litecoin?

Like, obvs.

Litecoin is a decentralised, peer-to-peer virtual currency that can be used to make payments anywhere in the world. It offers lower processing fees and faster transactions – ideal if you’re using it to gamble at an LTC casino.

There are myriad benefits to gambling with litecoin, which have been listed below. Let’s take a look:

 

LTC Casino Benefits

 

Litecoin can be used anywhere in the world

You can make litecoin deposits and withdrawals at any supporting casino, from anywhere in the world. Forget about the restrictions and limitations of traditional payment methods, which may be geo-restricted. With litecoin, you can deposit and withdraw at any time – no matter where you’re playing from.

Litecoin transactions are known for being super fast

You already know that transactions using cryptocurrency are processed much quicker than traditional (fiat) currencies. With litecoin, this is even more apparent. This means that you can get your winnings much quicker than if you were playing with a debit or credit card, for example. Litecoin is even faster than bitcoin – with the average transaction taking a mere 2.5 minutes to complete, in comparison to bitcoin’s 10 minutes.

Litecoin transactions are incredibly safe

All crypto transactions are protected by blockchain technology that uses secure cryptography. The blockchain acts as a digital ledger that records each and every litecoin transaction – making it impervious to being altered. Additionally, only the individual with the key and password can access their litecoin account – which means it cannot be accessed by anyone other than the account holder.

Litecoin has low fees

One of litecoin’s advantages is the low transaction fees. Litecoin is cheaper than fiat currencies. Plus, when you play at a casino such as Punt, there are no additional transaction fees.

 

LTC casino deposit recap

Now that you’ve got the 411 on depositing with litecoin, you’ll notice how incredibly seamless (and simple!) it is. For a quick recap:

  • Step 1 – Navigate to the quick deposit window on the Punt Casino homepage
  • Step 2 – Enter your deposit amount and select your currency (for example, USD) from the drop-down menu
  • Step 3 – Choose Litecoin as your payment method
  • Step 4 – Copy the web address into your web wallet
  • Step 5 – Deposit into your Player Account from your web wallet
  • Step 6 – Claim your welcome bonus: up to 6 BTC and a $25 Free Chip

Happy gaming!

What Happened to FTX? Here is Everything You Need to Know

What Happened to FTX? Here is Everything You Need to Know

November 12, 2022

Blog » Posts tagged "Crypto" (Page 3)

Everything that happened to FTX and what you need to know

Last week witnessed the biggest crypto story of the year, and one of the biggest of all time – the swift and astonishing collapse of FTX. The story, which is a Netflix documentary in the making, saw the unraveling of an empire that was seeking investment just two months ago that would have valued it at $32 billion, but which, after a whirlwind 10 days, became bankrupt, losing customers everything.

What happened to FTX? Let’s find out.

FTX fraud shoes how quickly a crypto giant can fall.

The FTX Empire Grows

FTX was founded by Sam Bankman-Fried and Gary Wang in May 2019 and quickly made a name for itself as a steady and trustworthy derivatives exchange. In a world where people were used to the shady antics of BitMEX, FTX presented a more professional face, with Bankman-Fried appearing to be one of the new breed of more legitimate and law-abiding operators.

As FTX grew, Bankman-Fried became entwined in the political element of the crypto scene, funding groups to lobby Washington on crypto’s behalf, although his public allegiance to the political left alienated a huge swathe of the crypto Twitterati. 

By the middle of this year, FTX had grown into the second biggest derivative trading platform in the space, tentatively valued at over $32 billion dollars in September, with big-name sponsorships and bailouts of bankrupt crypto exchanges giving the impression it was still actively pursuing expansion and hoping to challenge the market leader in the derivatives field – Binance. With one million active users, it was well on the way.

Coinbase had longstanding issues with FTX.

Coindesk Cries Foul

The problems for FTX began on November 2 when Coindesk alleged that Alameda Research, the trading firm that made up the other half of the FTX empire, held much of its $14.6 billion balance sheet in the FTT token issued by FTX. As Coindesk pointed out, this meant that Alameda was resting on “a foundation largely made up of a coin that a sister company invented, not an independent asset like a fiat currency or another crypto.”

This revelation caused Changpeng Zhao, the founder and CEO of Binance, to declare that Binance planned to liquidate its own holdings of FTT tokens, which it had received when it sold $2.1 billion worth of FTX equity back to FTX in 2021. Zhao didn’t reveal how many FTT tokens Binance would be liquidating, but when a $584 million FTT transfer into Binance from an unknown wallet was spotted later that day, he admitted that this was just “part of it”.

Zhao said the sale would be completed with “minimal” disruption to the market, but just hours later, on Monday afternoon, the value of FTT plummeted from $23 to $15 due to sudden massive sell pressure.

Here Comes the Run

The aforementioned selloff prompted further fears that Alameda, and in turn FTX, was at risk of facing liquidation on $3.4 billion worth of its FTT holdings due to the price collapse, stoking fears that it would soon be insolvent.

These fears began the event that every exchange fears – a run. FTX users frantically began requesting their funds from the exchange, with around $6 billion of withdrawals submitted in the 72 hours before Tuesday morning. This caused an inevitable backlog, which in turn led to further fears that FTX was not actually able to fulfill the requests. Bankman-Fried tweeted that “FTX is fine” and that all assets were covered. He then instantly deleted the tweet, which only served to cause more panic.

Bankman-Fried Reaches Out

Unbeknownst to the public, while he was busy deleting reassuring tweets, Bankman-Fried had realized that the drop in the value of FTT had indeed lost the company billions of dollars or user funds, and worse could be to come. He approached Seychelles-based cryptocurrency exchange OKX for help in funding the billions needed for customer withdrawals. When OKX couldn’t help, Bankman-Fried realized there was only one person left he could call on – Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao.

Bankman-Fried approached Zhao for the money, but Zhao, not one to miss an opportunity, turned the request massively to his advantage – on Tuesday afternoon he tweeted that Binance was looking not just to bail out FTX, but to acquire it. The revelation sent shockwaves through the crypto space, and led many to suggest that Zhao had been planning for such a result all along.

Nevertheless, customers were suddenly hopeful that they could be made whole. Bitcoin leapt $1,000 as a result, and even the FTT token managed a small resurgence. However, not everyone was convinced, offering reminders that Binance hadn’t looked at FTX’s books yet, and no one knew what horrors lurked in there.

Binance won't save FTX from falling.

Binance Pulls Out

While Binance was looking over the books, allegations emerged that FTX had been using customer funds for its own money making activities, such as collateral for loans and lending Alameda billions to trade with. This was followed by suggestions that U.S. authorities were looking into FTX’s collapse, with particular focus on the alleged misuse of customer funds.

The following day, Wednesday 9th, it was revealed that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and the Justice Department had been looking into the affairs of FTX’s American arm, FTX US, for potential securities violations for months already.

These revelations acted like an air raid warning for Binance, and on Wednesday night it stepped away from the deal, citing “corporate due diligence, as well as the latest news reports regarding mishandled customer funds and alleged US agency investigations.” This left the cryptocurrency industry with its very own Lehman Brothers situation; FTX was at the center of a huge lending and borrowing web, a web that had already been severely tested in 2022 by the collapse of Celsius, Three Arrows Capital and TerraUSD. The scale of its involvement with other crypto companies as known to be vast, but no one knew quite how vast yet.

FTX Can’t Fill the Hole

To avoid ultimate catastrophe, FTX was left on Thursday morning needing to fill an $8 billion hole of its own making, or face bankruptcy. Bankman-Fried tweeted an apology thread on Thursday in which he took responsibility for the errors made, reinforced the need for funding if customers were to get any of their money back, and announced that Alameda Research was being wound down.

Later on Thursday, the Securities Commission of The Bahamas, where FTX is registered, called for all company assets to be frozen, suggesting that any prospect of users getting withdrawals out from the exchange were now doomed to failure. However, a loophole was spotted by some Twitter users who offered to pay FTX staff up to $1 million to change their residency to Bahamian in order to get their funds off the exchange. Some, apparently, succeeded in their quest.

By Friday it was clear however that the hole was just too big to be plugged, and at 2:14pm on Friday, FTX filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, bringing the curtain down on a disastrous, and thoroughly unnecessary, episode of devastating drama.

The FXT collapse is going to be felt for months to come.

Damage Will Take Months to Come Out

To put the size of the FTX collapse into perspective, Bankman-Fried’s personal net worth at the start of last week was thought to be in the region of $15 billion, tied up in FTX and its assets, including FTT tokens.

At the time of Bankman-Fried’s resignation, Bloomberg put this figure at just $3. This was a little over the value of one FTT token, which had peaked at $80 in September last year.

The fallout of the FTX collapse has only just begun, with people asking what happened to FTX only being the beginning. The full damage will only be known months down the line. The initial concern is for the million or so customers who have lost all their funds. They have no protection, and their only recourse will now be joining the long list of creditors all fighting for the scraps that remain, a battle that is likely to be long and largely fruitless.
