About Us — Who's Behind the Reviews

ProofBets Editorial Team

We built this site because we were tired of crypto casino "reviews" that are just rewritten press releases with an affiliate link slapped on top.

The Origin Story

I'm a data engineer by trade and a crypto trader by obsession. Sometime in 2021, I started playing at crypto casinos — partly for fun, partly because I was genuinely curious about provably fair algorithms and on-chain gambling mechanics.

What I found frustrated me. Most review sites rank casinos based on whoever pays the highest commission. The "top-rated" casino is often just the one with the fattest affiliate deal. Withdrawal speeds are listed as "instant" when they're anything but. Bonus terms are glossed over. Red flags are ignored.

I kept a spreadsheet tracking my actual deposits, withdrawals, support response times, and bonus terms across a dozen casinos. Eventually that spreadsheet grew into this site.

What Makes Us Different

  • Independent. No casino operator owns this site, funds this site, or has editorial control over our content. We're a small, self-funded operation.
  • First-hand testing. Every casino we review gets a real deposit, real gameplay, and a real withdrawal attempt. We don't review casinos we haven't used.
  • Data-driven. Where possible, we verify claims on-chain. Wallet balances, transaction speeds, provably fair outcomes — if it's on the blockchain, we check it.
  • No pay-for-play. Casinos cannot pay for a higher rating. Our review methodology is public (see our methodology page) and applied consistently.
  • Transparent about money. We earn money through affiliate commissions when you sign up to a casino through our links. This is clearly disclosed on every page with affiliate links and on our affiliate disclosure page. It doesn't affect our ratings.

Our Approach

We think of ourselves as the data layer for crypto gambling decisions. Instead of vague opinions, we give you verifiable facts: actual withdrawal times we measured, bonus wagering requirements we calculated, and on-chain wallet health we checked.

We're based in the UK but our audience is global. We focus on crypto casinos serving international markets. We do not promote gambling services to UK residents, in compliance with the Gambling Act 2005.
