If DirectBet can figure out a way to insure immediate confirmation of bets, then the rating will be raised. As of this time the possibility exists that a player may not get a confirmation/rejection of a bet in an acceptable time period.
All the bets that we receive are confirmed instantly upon arrival.
It is true that in our early days a few bets arrived in delay, but we solved that more than a year ago by connecting to additional nodes in the Bitcoin network.
In addition, we do offer an option to deposit first and later get the bet confirmed instantly whenever you are ready to place it, just like you do with deposit books. This is useful in cases where you cash out from an Exchange or another Sportsbook directly to your bet address, the bet is time sensitive and you are not sure whether your cash out will be processed immediately by the 3rd party.
