BTC Nitrobetting is a new bitcoin-only sportsbook from the team at Nitrogen Sports. That raises questions in itself;
- Why is Nitrogen running 2 sites?
- What are the differences between them?
- What will happen to the old site?
- Et cetera.
The site also has a good poker room, identical to the one on Nitrogen Sports. But unlike Nitrogen Sports there is no dice game.
User experience
The site has a nice and fun design on desktop but feels a bit busy and overcrowded on mobile. The user experience is better than Nitrogen Sports but not as good as some of the higher-ranked sportsbooks.
Odds
Sportsbook's overround: 4.97%
50:50 equivalent: 1.91
Nitrobetting’s odds are better than average and very consistent.
Range of bets
Range of sports, leagues and events: Large; all the way down to floorball.
Range of bet types per event: Small; just winner, spread and totals for most games.
Live betting
The range of events open for live betting is good but the interface and features are basic. The only information for each game is the clock and the score, there are no stats. Half the events have a little live stream icon but nothing happens when you click it. There is no cashout feature or fun factor.
Transactions
Unique deposit addresses: Generated automatically.
Confirmations before bet: 1.
Withdrawal time: 5 hours.
Player to player transfer: Not available.
Customer service
Customer service channels available: "Live" chat, on site contact form and email.
Speed of replies: "Live" chat takes about an hour to reply. On site contact form takes about 4 hours.
Accuracy of replies: Live chat refer you to email support. We got an inaccurate reply to our email but it was followed up 15 minutes later with an accurate reply.
Real life customer service test
Question:
please submit your inquiry to [email protected]
Notes: We asked a simple unrelated question later and got the same response.
This is probably the same staff who provide Nitrogen Sports customer service which leaves a lot to be desired.Privacy and security
Information required at signup: Email address.
2 factor authentication: Available.
One thing Nitrogen Sports never wavered on through all their ups and downs is good privacy and security and it seems Nitrobetting will continue this tradition.
Geo-targeting
Bettors in Costa Rica and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland are geo-blocked by Nitrobetting.
Nitrobetting is the best crypto sportsbook that does not geoblock the USA.
Bonuses
100% first deposit match on sports betting only or slots only or poker only. Also if your first bet loses you get a free bet of the same amount.
Overall
This is the first site for which we have ever had to ask “Why do you exist?”. And the answer is that Nitrogen was not able to make their other site better, which points towards incompetence, anyway, we go into all of that in our blog about Nitrobetting, Nitrogen Sports’ new site.
If you are in the USA then Nitrobetting is one of your best (read “one of your only”) options because the better crypto sportsbooks do not accept American bettors. If you are not geo-blocked by those better sportsbooks then of course you should use them instead.
