You seem to have misunderstood the issue here. The gambler's balance didn't just magically disappear. Stake froze his account and siezed his funds due to which he created a scam accusation thread against them.
The Stake team is currently investigating the issue. We are talking about 200 grand here which is why this will probably take time to get completely resolved.
Yes, I saw that thread in the gambling section... but take a better look at the above comments, the ones I quoted! It's like someone is creating multiple accounts, or giving a username and password to someone else, who withdraws the money, and then the first guy complains!
As you can see above... "but for some reason their balances vanish via mysterious bets"! It's not a frozen account, frozen balance, funds seized... or anything else!
Yes, it's possible I have misunderstood the situation here, it's why I said I need some clarification... as you can see I imagined something completely different!
I believe that there is some serious problems going on with the accusations increasing lately in the crypto casino world. All of these places are places we all love and respect and yet they are still getting a ton of accusations and I do not think that they are actually changing anything, it is the same website and it will always be the same website and yet the characters that join in and gamble are different.
I get that it is 200k and it is huge amount but why would Stake care about stealing 200k when they are giving away a million dollars constantly and they are probably spending tens of millions of dollars for the whole promotion things (ufc, fighters, nba, streams etc etc etc) they do not need to steal some guys 200k to keep this up, they have more than enough money for themselves and if people assume that stake come thus far by stealing they are dreaming, stake managed to be stake all thanks to being awesome and not being a scammer.
