Ethereum at Sportsbet.io: what to watch for
Network Selection
Some casinos list ETH but only support mainnet (L1). Sending from Arbitrum/Optimism to a mainnet deposit address loses your funds. Always verify the network in the cashier matches your wallet's network before sending.
Gas Price at Send Time
Casino withdrawal fees are usually deducted from the withdrawal amount based on current gas. During congestion the fee can exceed $30 — schedule when gas is low (etherscan.io/gastracker).
Smart Contract Wallets
Some smart-contract wallets (Argent, Safe) trigger casino fraud filters. Use a standard EOA (MetaMask, Trust Wallet) for deposits to avoid review delays.
