We've partnered with a company that does altcoin exchange for a lot of big exchanges and just finished implementing it, will be launching soon.
If the rates are updated in real time and the fee is low, it could be fantastic for those who do some mild trading between the main cryptos (like me).
Yes its great news. Honestly in my opinion I am surprised that a service such as this wasn't introduced in the past to deal with bitcoin services which are not exchanges.
In my opinion its alot of work for a bitcoin casino to add a new coin. Basically its a lot of programming work and certain coins like ETH require an extensive amount of space due to their oversized blockchain. And with every new altcoin listed it will become more and more complicated.
This way the casino only needs BTC listed and they use a 3rd party service to do the conversion and the 3rd party service can get a small fee.
Hope to see this launch very soon.
