Also, IIRC, Sportsbet does process BTC withdrawal before free of charge, I'm wondering if they are still doing the same now.
I didn't find any update on whether they still provide free withdrawal fee during the increase in transaction fee. Many sites make change and they may still adjust their fee if they are too high.
Gamblers will BTC maybe be discouraged to deposit Bitcoins but they will also be discouraged to withdraw their BTC funds, so they will have to let them on the gambling platforms and hence to gamble them there, that's why these high transaction fees are not a real bad thing for crypto casinos in my opinion.
Meanwhile, we will be hearing a lot of complaint coming from players wanting to withdraw and deposit bitcoin to the site due to transaction fee. If the estimated withdrawal amount include only transaction fee, it's worth spending everything there hoping to win something bigger.
Yes but I don't think casinos are targeting this kind of gamblers when they settle high withdrawal fees because if they are unable to withdraw their funds, those small gamblers won't come back again and won't deposit anymore funds there. I think casinos are mostly targeting average gamblers by doing that, because the average gambler won't stop to deposit just because of that but will be more reluctant to withdraw oftentimes.
