It really annoys me to have to read boring complaints about high fees: it is what it is, they are known and public, people may or may not agree with them but they are there for a reason. There are bitcoin services (exchanges, other casinos...) that have much higher fees than the ones I see here, so what is the matter really?
A dynamic fee mechanism would be beneficial where users would be able to choose how much to pay to have a slower or faster confirmation rate but it does not look in the plan, so let's move on.

Perhaps Stake need to consider to implement it in the near future although it does not give any guarantee that complains will not come. I still see some people complaining about withdrawal fee even though they are playing on a site with dynamic fee where they can choose the priority level of the fee. Both fixed fee and dynamic fee has its own advantage and disadvantage. Here, players needs to understand and check the system first and check how much is the latest fee on the site and on the average fee on the mempool. A site wont be able to give what is the best for all players because every player has their own preferences. As players, we need to know which coin and which fee is more suitable for us. Even if there is a sudden huge increase of the fee of bitcoin/eth when we play with btc/eth, there is other way to avoid it on Stake. That's by using dinabot to exchange our bitcoin to other coins or simply do not use btc/eth for gambling if we want to avoid high fee.
Yes, at the moment for an withdrawal of $100 we need to pay more than $10 as the fee. In terms of confirmation things were happening good, but for smaller fund withdrawal the fee amount seems big. Maybe an user based manual fee providing tab seems to be good.

Whatever they decide, if people sign up for Stake and decide to play there they know which the fees are in advance. So, again, we would all love a dynamic fees mechanism (which would also probably bring more people in) but those are the fees required now. Also, worrying about the withdrawal's fee means that probably one has had the luck to win something, so what it is the problem? Smiley

Happy to announce that Stake will have livestreaming for the big game Monday!! The official non-delay stream, a rare privilege that few betting sites globally will offer.


To back that up we've also got two amazing promotions. We brought back the 14+ promo from last year that was so popular. And added a double win promo.

Double Winnings
Earn Double Winnings on your selections if the quarterback from your selection reaches 325+ passing yards! If you have bet on Tampa Bay, you will of course be cheering on Tom Brady for 325+ passing yards. Kansas City punters, you'll be watching Patrick Mahomes.

14+ Pay Out
If your selection leads by 14+ points at any point, you will be paid out as a winner, even if your selection loses!


more details: https://promotions.stake.com/tampa-kansas-promo/
Dude we love you and you know this but are you really sure? Having bet on 325+ yards is fine and there is nothing wrong with that, I get it, but 14+ difference automatically a win is something not really that smart if you ask me. Obviously if a team leads by 14 points nearly over but we have also seen a lot of teams end up losing at the last second and the other team making a comeback from much larger gaps than 14 points.

In any case, these odds are really cool for us, and obviously it is normal that we have a lot of options to gamble from for this just one game because it is obvious that we are in a situation where people gamble a lot, and I mean like record breakingly a lot just for one game in the entire world, USA spends hundreds of millions of dollars gambling on this one game, with the illegals I bet it gets closer to 1+ billion dollars wagered.

I really like Stake originals, but it looks like you've covered all possible games already



Today I was having fun with Video Poker on Stake



and was thinking, how great it would be if Stake launched real poker on their site, poker against other players not against the croupier. I don't know how technically complicated it can be, but please consider adding this wonderful game. I wouldn't go so far to say "a casino without Poker is not really a Casino", but I think there is something in this phrase that is close to the truth.  Smiley

It will add more fun as poker players loves to compete with each others, if stake offer this feature response from those who wanted to play against real players will be on the table.

Though it's stake decision to make or consider just the same way they've did adding sports betting, for sure they have people behind who can research and check if such platforms for live poker table would help the business to attract more gamblers to visit their site.

We wil lsee if how they'll take this and what would be the reply coming from the team.

Stake originals are the hope of mankind Cheesy because of its low HE. Seriously, the 2020 PnG slots have ~96.2 RTP from previously ~96.5. I'm suspicious they will reduce RTPs even more. Moreover, ~96% is the "new normal" for NoLimit City and Netent.

We need more Scarab Spin slots as 2.16% HE is awesome.

Is there any chance we get the (pre)monthly bonus ahead of the big game?

Want to waste it all on monday, haha.

If I remember it correctly, there was no pre monthly bonus last month so there is a hope that we will get it this month but for sure it is Stake decision whether there will be pre monthly or not. By the way, tomorrow is Mega Race as well as weekly bonus, so you can waste it if there will be no pre monthly. In case you were wagering a lot in the past 7 days, you'll get nice amount to waste tomorrow  Cheesy

We are not talking about "yesterday" or "today" but the time I wanted to make my withdrawal. A fast fee at that time was below 4$.
When I the finally made the withdrawal an "urgent" fee was around 0.0002btc, I paid the regular 0.0003 and what did they send it with? 0.0001. So I paid 3 times the fee they actually used. By the times they sent it this fee was even too low and I had 7000 transactions above me and had to wait several blocks to get confirmed.
I think the answer was already given by Stunna, they already gave too much of incentives for their customers with withdrawal fee when it was too high but to avoid people using their account as a regular wallet instead of gambling with such incentives they implement such hike in the fee which is temporary I guess. So now the decision is your because they made their decision if you still don't like their fee structure then choose something else which falls under your category.
Casinos usually charge way more than required "just to be sure" and that does bring in a bit of a profit for them as well that is not a lie. I am not going to defend what stake did or how they handled the situation because I am not affiliated with them, however I could say a lot of places do this, and not just casinos but even exchanges do this for some reason, I think its more about these places saying "might as well charge a lot more, if it goes up we won't lose money and if it stays the same we earn money" type of logic and as long as all other websites keep doing it, there is no reason to change it.

The moment some places start using LN or ask for cheap amounts, it is going to change some things and its going to ruffle up some feathers in the crypto business world but until that happens we can't blame stake for doing something (albeit not right) that everywhere else does as well unfortunately.

Many people will always complain about high fees in the crypto world(Valid Criticism) and that will never change especially due to the rising values of BTC, ETH etc over time which is why the sites themselves need to adapt accordingly in order to maintain a constant fee.

Some sites execute this properly while some don't. I observed that Stake executes this properly which is a plus point.

We are not talking about "yesterday" or "today" but the time I wanted to make my withdrawal.

From Feb 2nd:

the fee right now would be way less than 10$.

'Your withdrawal will have 0.00030000 subtracted from your remaining balance to cover the fee required to process the transaction."

Thats 10$ withdrawal fee, are you crazy?

At the moment 25sat/b would be way enough. This site really is robbing its players. How often do you want to raise the withdrawal fee?

Which is why I posted on Feb 3:

The average fee yesterday in USD was $14.26

'Yesterday' on Feb 3 is Feb 2, the same day you said 'the fee right now would be way less than 10$'

Sorry if that wasn't clear.


You do know that the mempool looks like this over 24 hours, right?

https://imgur.com/a/N4QGuZ8

So what matters was my exact time, not the average fee of the day.

He just want to be a J**rk

That guy just made complicated himself with fee bitcoin, he doesn't want to make simple BETTING WITH ALTCOIN ON CHEAP FEE. Stake have the various option can use for the transaction like XRP, TRX, DOGE and other coins.

Blaming because 30K satoshi fee, man I believe that guys were also blamed on the exchange because they us fee on bitcoin with 0.002, 0.001, 0.0005 BTC. Just like his negatif feedback, better just ignore him that's it.

He was here for complain.

The fee they're charging is in line with a reasonable network fee if you hope to have it confirmed next block.  

But if you're making small deposits or withdraws with Bitcoin, you're doing it wrong.  I'd recommend paying the 2 or 3% fee to exchange with dinabot for trx or ltc and then withdraw for about 5 cents and stick with anything but bitcoin going forward.
We can't just tell people "if you do not want to pay 10 bucks you should go with some other coin" like they are the wrong ones. We are talking about stake here, first of all stake could pay everyone's fee and would still be getting a ton of customers but leaving that aside, I believe for someone who has low amounts of money 10 bucks is huge and they may want to pay less, at that point we all know stake collects a lot of payments together and sends them all together which makes it cheaper so at the end of the day stake could offer 5 bucks and even less for transactions.

So, to tell the customer to use another coin like it is their fault that stake charges 10 bucks is not really a nice move, it is really victim shaming and you should be ashamed of it. I say stake could basically drop their charge 50% and combine it and send all transactions combined whenever it reaches to a point, customers can wait 1-2 hours that is fine.

I don't work for stake but see no issue with explaining how to avoid bitcoins ridiculous fees.  I almost feel obligated to  explain it to someone making small btc transactions with any frequency.

I stand with Ukraine.
Today I have played with good amount of deposit at stake after few months. Wagerd 2.81 btc and got 79th position in daily race. Compared to wager amount the prize isn't worth anything. With this wager anyone could easily have the position in top 10 at other casino daily race. All the big whale plays at stake now. Seems like small players don't have the chance to stay in top 100 of daily race anymore.  BTW, I have lost enough amount in deposit today. Here is one of my session stats. Lost more amount in another session


Above image shows that you lost $2,400 for $51,287 wagered amount. This makes me wonder what games did you play and how did you play it. I think if your main purpose is for the race and you play games with 1% HE or less then you should have not lost that much. Did you play with martingale on that session? If so, I do not think it is a good idea to do martingale if the main purpose is for the Race. I think betting flat amount on 1% HE games will give you better result, btw sorry for your lose.

With $51k wagered, he would lose around $500, betting flat on 1% HE games, in one of the best case scenarios. And the prize, 0.00015 BTC, is less than $6 now. Wagering contests are no longer something you can hope to make money with. They are for high rollers, who may even win something during their betting session, and in addition to that receive a prize as a bonus.

But what I said above isn't set in stone, of course. Luck is a big factor here. One can win $1k or $2k right away, and quit the contest, cos the prize is good enough already.

Just saw another interesting sports promotion for the Australian Open on Stake: "Aces Special".

Basically you get 1$ per ace for men and 2$ per ace for women; condition is that your selection needs to win the match. Minimum bet is quite high (25$) and the promotion is only valid on a couple of matches, but still interesting  Wink.
All details here: https://promotions.stake.com/aus-open-aces/

Not gonna lie, site is great, I love playing on it. No complaints about the games.

But seriously I cannot fucking stand the support/mods, they ruin the experience so fucking much. Almost makes me want to delete my account and never play again. Steve and Eddie are fine, but holy shit, the fucking Mebit staff. The most incompetent fuckers I've ever met in my life except for Uros.
I partially agree with you. Have faced several issues with some of their mods myself in the chat though I never got muted or anything, but they did leave a bad impression. I actually considered switching sites at one point since some of their mods couldn't resolve my queries properly.

However, this happened sometime back. Their customer service has improved since then since majority of my recent queries were resolved quickly.

Never had any issues on chat, but I am also not really active on there. All support questions I had were quickly resolved.
