Crypto at National: deposits and withdrawals
Beyond Bitcoin, some cashiers list other cryptocurrencies: stablecoins pegged to a fiat currency, Ethereum, Litecoin and others. The principles are the same; the details — networks, confirmations, price risk — differ from coin to coin.
Coin and network are two choices
Many coins exist on several networks. A stablecoin, for example, can be issued on more than one blockchain. The cashier shows a deposit address for a specific coin on a specific network. Sending the right coin on the wrong network is one of the commonest ways to lose funds permanently.
Depositing
- Choose the coin and the network in the cashier.
- Copy the address (and memo or tag, if one is shown).
- Send the exact coin on the exact network.
- Wait for the confirmations required.
Withdrawing
Provide your wallet address on the network the cashier supports for withdrawals, which may differ from the deposit list. Verification is usually required. Double-check the address: crypto transfers cannot be reversed.
Stablecoins and volatility
Stablecoins aim to hold a steady value against a fiat currency, which removes most of the price swing that Bitcoin adds on top of slot volatility. They are not risk-free — the peg depends on the issuer — but for many players they are the more predictable crypto option.
Fees and timing
Each network has its own fees and confirmation times. Busy networks cost more and confirm more slowly. These costs come from your wallet, separate from anything the cashier charges.
Memos and tags
Some coins require a memo or destination tag in addition to the address. If the cashier shows one and you omit it, the deposit may arrive at the casino without being linked to your account, and recovering it can take a long time.
Protection
Crypto payments have no chargeback mechanism. Check that the operator is licensed where you live before sending anything — see the review.
Available methods and limits depend on your account — check the cashier before you deposit.
