bc.game is doing domain squatting or typosquatting.

I tried to access Stake.com mirror links like stake.games but mistyped it as Stake.game (without the "s") and was I redirected to bc.game. I think this is unethical because bc.game should not use similar domains (typosquatting) just to get some traffic. I remember Betsmixer.com get tagged negative trust rating because of typosquatting (when you type roobett.com you'll go to betsmixer.com).

As long as there is no malicious intent, there’s nothing wrong with registering a domain and redirecting it to a legitimate website that people might have intended on visiting when they mistakenly typed that domain. Most people probably aren’t aware that stake.games is a Stake mirror and would intentionally type that in their browser.

AFAIK there’s a malicious intent on this move since they are trying to steal customers of Stake that will commit typo error when searching the casino. This is unethical for business since they are using the “Stake” name to redirect players to their own casino. Unless bc.game has “stake” word in their name then this doesn’t contain malicious intent.

It is likely more common that people who frequently visit both will occasionally conflate their names and type the stake.game url by accident.

This is not true. As hardcore gambler, Remembering the exact website is a must to guarantee that you are not using a phishing website. It’s impossible to combine them as a result of confusion.
