Good to hear that, it's definitely the best coin if you want to bet for lower values on games other than dice.
I've got to say that I've been using Crypto-Games more as an actual exchange lately, while also playing a bit of course.

I think I'd rather use this than Poloniex or Bittrex in some cases, just because of the ability to adjust the fee for example.

Peercoin will stay. GRC is having constant troubles with wallet for more than two years.

That's pretty good news, Gridcoin's market volume was a bit too low for my taste anyway, gas seems to be doing a lot better in that regard.
Gas is looking to be a good coin for low value roulette/slot/BJ/videopoker bets as well.

Are you still going to keep Peercoin listed? Seems to be in kinda the same boat as Gridcoin (low volume), but perhaps it is used more often on CG? I just find it handy for playing roulette, the bet sizing is perfectly small enough for me.

 

Important announcement: Delisting Gridcoin (GRC)

Starting today, CryptoGames will no longer accept Gridcoin deposits. This is the first step towards a complete removal of the coin from the CryptoGames platform. Investors who are part of the Gridcoin bankroll are asked to divest and withdraw their coins. For this process, there will be a 14 day window (until 19th February) designated. While betting with Gridcoin is still possible during this withdrawal period, first priority for players and investors with a Gridcoin balance should be to move those coins into their own wallets. Users who don't request a withdrawal in time will have their Gridcoin sent to their emergency address on the 19th, if they have set a Gridcoin emergency address before.

After the 19th February, Gridcoin will be removed from the site, and it will be no longer possible to place bets with Gridcoin or request automatic withdrawals of any leftover balances. There will be a specific reclaim process for those users that fail to withdraw their coins in time and don't use emergency addresses.

DOGE Lotto Round #119 will close in approx 9 hours!

Current prizes:
1st place:  316,600 DOGE
2nd place: 59,363 DOGE
3rd place: 19,788 DOGE

Total tickets bought so far: 1583
Price per ticket: 250 DOGE

As I said above:


I'm not a lawyer but I believe that Crypto-Games will have taken legal advice that has led them to only restrict deposits.

I always wondered how the legality of "monitoring" your clients is laid out for countries that do not have KYC and similar laws/regulations. KYC forces you to verify your customer to a certain degree, verify their location, identity, etc. However in these other countries that do not enforce any kind of KYC-like legislation it makes me curious how their client-base is regulated at all.

For example, the company that does not have to Know their customer but is also not "allowed" to serve US clients has almost no way of verifying whether or not they are serving US clients; other than simply going off of current IP, which is not a verification at all; it can be circumvented, it can be manipulated, as you said people can go on vacation or even immigrate. There may be some clients that are allowed to play, but wish to not display their location and are refused because they are using a USA IP.

It would seem to be the case that US clients are only artificially restricted until there is KYC enforced worldwide or there is a more stringent validation than current IP. Although, like any business there is incentive to bring in as many customers as you can so I don't see the casino's stepping-up to the plate just to alienate an entire country full of gamblers (especially when they disagree with the KYC doctrine, anyways).

tl;dr Are US Citizens not (legally) allowed to play or is there just restrictions on US IPs? I'm a little confused on the legality.

Indeed there are no reasons that anyone in the US or other restricted countries cannot play from the faucet and withdraw their winnings.

Many people in the Bitcoin and Crypto world like to protect their privacy using VPNs. I don't know of a casino site that prohibits their use or monitors if customers access from another country, say if they happened to go on vacation.

Oh wow, then I have been under the wrong impression this whole time. I told my buddy from the US they might have a tough time using the site, because of the restrictions; I had not realized that everything was fully-functional for US clients except for requesting a deposit address. I was worried my friend would win big, then try for a withdrawal and be denied because they are from USA.

With this being said though, wouldn't that mean that US clients only have access to betting with whatever the faucet/rain will drip out for them? I suppose they could always do as they should've been doing from the start and use some form of IP security, like a VPN. Practically though, without jumping through any hoops the intended way for US members to use the site is through the faucet, is that right?

The only thing restricted to IP addresses in certain locations is requesting a deposit address. The rest of the site including withdrawals works from anywhere in the world.
