Effective immediately Primedice will no longer accept deposits from visitors located within certain jurisdictions including the US. While Primedice is neither operated nor based in the USA, we've chosen to take proactive measures to mitigate long term risk for our users and service. The legal landscape is quickly shifting and we are choosing to completely block deposits from users located in what we've deemed as higher risk jurisdictions.
Primedice does not make use of US currency nor banking, and this block is not recognition that bitcoin gambling is illegal. This decision has been solely based off of discussions between Primedice and our legal counsel.
I know this news will disappoint many of you, however we're strong believers in Bitcoin and are playing defensively to secure our long term position at the top of this rapidly growing industry. We're confident that every major online casino will accept Bitcoin within the next five years and we're determined to compete directly with them by continuing to create new disruptive experiences. We've been lucky enough to see the transformative power of Bitcoin with regards to gambling from a first hand perspective and are confident this is the right decision moving forward.
Thank You,
Primedice Team
Can you list the other certain jurisdictions that you mentioned apart from the US? any issue with playing there again by using vpn or other ip changer application? Even if you make this announcement im afraid that many people from US will still play there by using vpn or the other ip changer
I don't think there will be an issue using a VPN or a proxy unless PrimeDice decides to block those too.
You are right there is no announcement about using VPN , but still it is not clear enough for me that is why Im asking for confirmation, because I dont want them to block my account and dont allow me to withdraw if they knew that I access it from VPN.
Not gonna happen . Im 100% sure u can use VPN and there is no way for primedice to tell u come from US or whatever. And there is not much will to know that to so u will be good .
In bitcoin world and gambling , we should all use VPN's anyways privacy is the big thing lately .
