On few occasions when I get to this step on most fiat online casinos around my country, what I often used as source of funds could range from statement of account from banks.
My question is can we use crypto wallet with long history of transactions and possibly a sign message be used as source of funds requirements for online crypto casinos?
Using a digital wallet as evidence of assets can be relatively problematic for the KYC verification. However, it is being used increasingly in crypto casinos. Most online casinos that allow cryptocurrencies will have no problem accepting wallet history as additional documentation. That applies especially when you maintain a clean and consistent record of your wallet history. The history of transactions over time can ensure consistent and legitimate activity of operations. You can add further verification by signing messages from your wallet. That way you'll be assured of controlling your wallet besides having peace of mind against fraud.
However, all casinos have their policies on the matter of KYC and funding sources. So, although some may accept cryptowallets, in some places, traditional verification is still required, for instance, a bank statement. It is advisable to check directly with the sponsor casino or with the details of KYC guidelines if one plans to use a digital wallet. Provide other documents that include an especially signed statement and description of the large business. That may help you explain wealth abuse.
On their part, as changes in cryptocurrency regulations are done, the casinos will change their requirements on KYC to fit into these changes. This way, being updated on all these changes will help you prepare for tests approaching. Generally, though you can use crypto wallets as proof of assets, final acceptance depends on casino policies. Have you found any of the casinos to be more relaxed with their KYC requirements on cryptocurrencies?
Most casinos will ask bank statement, saving account/investment, pay slips etc which is mostly about printed documents that shows our name, address, or other our personal information.
But your question is interesting and maybe crypto casino may consider it as one of the proof of funds, because it will be something great if it is possible.
Logically crypto casino should also accept crypto wallet as proof of fund, just my 2 cents.
You do have a point here. However, most of the old casinos still like to deal with traditional and conventional documentation, such as bank statements. pay stub, etc, for KYC verification purposes. As those measures have remained in place for an eternity. Still, the cryptocurrency landscape continues to evolve. So naturally, casinos and other online gaming platforms shall keep up with the changing cryptocurrency landscape and acknowledge digital wallets as true proofs of wealth, as well.
Not only does that ease the testing process. They help the players use cryptocurrencies as well. It also makes it more accessible from the very beginning. It would take one huge leap for the industry. The mainstream crypto adoption actually plays in line with this aspect since more players accept digital currencies. Hopefully, we'll see the days when a casino accepts cryptocurrency standards in its KYC processes more often.
Do you think you come across more advanced casinos in terms of acceptance of technology? KYC requirements have been a lot stricter lately.
