Both Fairlay (
click for link) and BetBTC (
click for link) are sportsbooks and also betting exchanges, though I've personally never used either of them and they don't seem to have a lot of volume from what I can see right now. I don't currently see any active scam accusations against either site so they should be safe to use (BetBTC's thread dates back to Nov 2014 and Fairlay's to July 2014), though please feel free to correct me if I am wrong.
I signed up to Fairlay just this week and had a few bets.
Initial thoughts:
- easy deposit process (that's crypto for you)
- one of the most confusing UIs I have ever seen
- messy, busy, over-featured betslip - doesn't match up to the standard exchange experience at all
- no in-play betting (!)... did I miss something?
Any others have feedback (good or bad) on Fairlay? Would love to hear that it was just me, but right now this is not fit for purpose as an exchange product.
I totally agree with all you said about Fairlay. And will add some mine:
1. Built in crypto exchange. Very usefull when you want to place some bets but bitcoin mempool overloaded (like todays). Litecoin, BCH, ETH, DASH accepted.
2. You can place huge bets (compared to other bitcoin sportsbooks) and you can rebet the same market many times. You literally have pini line for Bitcoin sports betting with good limits . There are people who bet around 50 BTC on a single bet.
3. Well documented API (you can make your own script for market making or test some strategis, just carefully combine free and paid API's.
4. Lowest fees on the market.
5. No KYC.
If Fairlay had matchbook/betfair - like UI it would be the best place for crypto sports betting.
