Terms and Conditions
These terms and conditions govern your use of Bitcoin Casino at researchfirst.co.nz. By browsing or using this site, you agree to the terms set out below. If you do not agree, please stop using the site. These terms apply to all visitors, regardless of location.
Who We Are and What This Site Does
Bitcoin Casino is an independent comparison and review website. We research, assess, and rank crypto casinos available to US players, covering factors such as supported cryptocurrencies, bonus offers, payout speed, game variety, licensing status, and anonymity. We do not operate a casino, accept wagers, process payments, or hold player funds.
Our editorial team reviews casinos based on publicly available information and defined criteria. For details on how we assess and rank sites, visit our About Us page.
Affiliate and Commercial Relationships
Bitcoin Casino earns revenue through affiliate commissions. When you click through to a casino from this site and register or deposit, we may receive a payment from that operator. This commercial relationship does not determine how we rank or review a site — our editorial ratings are applied independently. Operators cannot buy a higher position, and we do not accept payment for positive reviews.
Offers, bonuses, and terms displayed on this site are sourced from operators and are subject to change without notice. Always verify the current terms directly with the casino before depositing or claiming a promotion.
Accuracy and Editorial Standards
We make every reasonable effort to keep information on this site current and accurate. However, casino offers, bonus amounts, wagering requirements, supported coins, and licensing details can change. We cannot guarantee that every detail is accurate at the moment you read it.
- Bonus offers are presented with material conditions (wagering requirements, time limits, eligibility) as supplied to us, but these are set by the operator and may differ at the time you claim them.
- Editorial ratings on this site reflect our independent assessment and are not customer review scores or third-party audit results.
- We do not claim to have personally tested, deposited at, or withdrawn from any casino listed. Our assessments are based on research and verification of publicly available information.
- We may update pages at any time to reflect new information. The date shown on each page indicates when it was last reviewed.
Legal Status of Crypto Casinos for US Players
This is an important section. Please read it carefully.
The crypto casinos reviewed and linked on this site are offshore operators, typically licensed in jurisdictions such as Curaçao or Anjouan. They are not licensed, authorized, or regulated by any US federal or state gambling authority. Online casino gambling is not federally legal in the United States, and regulated online casino play exists only in a small number of states (including New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Michigan, West Virginia, Connecticut, Delaware, and Rhode Island) — and those regulated operators do not accept crypto.
For most US players, playing at an offshore crypto casino sits in a legal grey area. It is not the same as playing at a state-licensed platform. Players must understand this distinction and check the laws of their own state before registering or depositing at any site linked from researchfirst.co.nz.
Some states have more explicitly restrictive rules than others. Some offshore operators self-exclude certain US states from their terms. It is your responsibility to determine whether your use of any linked site complies with your state's laws. We cannot provide legal advice, and nothing on this site constitutes legal advice. If you are uncertain about your situation, consult a qualified attorney.
Tax Obligations
US persons are generally required to report gambling winnings as income for federal tax purposes. Cryptocurrency transactions may also carry their own tax implications, including capital gains obligations when you convert, spend, or receive crypto. The rules are complex and vary depending on your individual circumstances.
Nothing on this site constitutes tax advice. You should consult a qualified tax professional regarding your obligations before gambling with cryptocurrency or receiving winnings in any form.
Age and Eligibility
This site is intended for adults only. You must be at least 18 years old to use Bitcoin Casino, and you must meet the minimum age required by the casino and by the laws of your state (which may be 21 in some jurisdictions) before playing at any site we link to.
We do not knowingly publish content directed at anyone under the age of 18. If you believe a minor has accessed this site, please contact us at [email protected].
Responsible Gambling
Gambling carries real financial risk. Outcomes are determined by chance, and no strategy, system, or cryptocurrency removes that risk. The sites reviewed on Bitcoin Casino involve wagering real money — including cryptocurrency, the value of which can itself fluctuate significantly.
We do not encourage gambling beyond what you can afford to lose. We do not present gambling as a reliable source of income, and we do not encourage chasing losses.
Offshore crypto casinos may not offer the same responsible gambling tools, self-exclusion programs, or player protections as state-regulated operators. If you are concerned about your gambling behavior, or someone else's, free and confidential support is available:
- National Problem Gambling Helpline: 1-800-GAMBLER (1-800-426-2537) — available 24/7 by call or text.
- Online chat support at ncpgambling.org.
For more information on setting limits and managing your gambling safely, visit our Responsible Gambling page.
No KYC, Anonymity, and Privacy
Some casinos reviewed on this site offer reduced or no identity verification (commonly described as "no KYC"). We present this as a factual feature where operators offer it. However, we do not encourage or endorse using anonymous features to evade tax obligations, conceal income, circumvent legal restrictions, or facilitate money laundering or any other unlawful activity.
Crypto transactions on public blockchains are pseudonymous, not fully anonymous. On-chain activity can be traced. Playing at an offshore no-KYC casino does not remove your legal obligations as a US person.
Crypto Price Volatility
Depositing and withdrawing in cryptocurrency means the USD value of your funds can rise or fall between the time you deposit and the time you withdraw. This adds a layer of financial risk beyond the normal house edge. Stablecoins such as USDT or USDC may reduce this exposure, but they carry their own counterparty and protocol risks. Bitcoin Casino does not accept responsibility for losses arising from cryptocurrency price movements.
Third-Party Sites and Links
When you click through to a casino or any other external site from researchfirst.co.nz, you leave our platform entirely. We are not responsible for the content, terms, practices, or conduct of any third-party site, including the casinos we review. Relationships between you and any operator are governed entirely by that operator's own terms and conditions, which you should read before registering or depositing.

Limitation of Liability
Bitcoin Casino provides information for general reference only. We are not liable for any financial loss, legal consequence, data loss, or other harm arising from your use of this site or from your interaction with any casino, operator, or platform linked from it. This includes losses from gambling, cryptocurrency price changes, account restrictions, or payment disputes with operators.
We make no warranties, express or implied, about the completeness, accuracy, or fitness for purpose of the information on this site.
