Types of Bitcoin casinos and wallet

Bitcoin gambling did not exist even a few decades back, as Bitcoin was mined in 2009 and came into the limelight in 2011. The cryptocurrency was an ambiguous term; many people were not at all aware of cryptocurrency. So no Bitcoin casino and games existed at that time. As the popularity of Bitcoin and Altcoin increased, new Bitcoin casinos popped up. With the increasing acceptance of Bitcoin, more casinos are accepting this digital currency.

A hardware wallet is the most secure option.

Bitcoin is a virtual currency used in peer-to-peer transactions. No regulatory body or third party is governing the transaction. The absence of government intervention makes it more popular, as fewer factors influence the price movement of the currency. Bitcoin wallet is a storage facility for this digital currency. As Bitcoin are not a real currency, this storage facility is a software program. Every Bitcoin wallet is inscribed with a private key aligned to the address of the Bitcoin wallet. Through a Bitcoin wallet, you can send, receive Bitcoin, and you can claim ownership of the residual Bitcoin sum. If you want to trade invest in Bitcoin, a Bitcoin wallet is a necessity. There are four categories of Bitcoin wallet:

Desktop wallet

Mobile wallet

Web wallet

Hardware wallet

Desktop wallet, as the name suggests, is installed in a computer with an inbuilt private key. Via this wallet, you can send and receive Bitcoin.

A mobile wallet has identical functionality as a desktop wallet. Mostly this wallet is either android or iOs compatible. The inbuilt features such as touch to pay, scanning of QR codes, and NFC (near field communication) gives a seamless user experience.

A web wallet is another option to access your Bitcoin account from anywhere. You can operate it from handheld devices or a browser. As web wallets stores private key online, sharing details with others is unsafe.

A hardware wallet is the most secure option. It is a device which stores the Bitcoin data shielded from cyber attack. Although there is no free version, the price ranges from $100 to $200.

Bitcoin casinos

There are two types of Bitcoin casinos; one is pure Bitcoin casinos other is hybrid casinos. The former operates exclusively in cryptocurrency; you can deposit and withdraw in Bitcoin. In these casinos, you can enjoy complete anonymity. Hybrid casinos are regular online casinos like mega888 that accepts both fiat and cryptocurrencies. The Bitcoin are converted into fiat currency before they are credited to your account. But few casinos allow patrons to withdraw in Bitcoin reverting to Bitcoin wallet.
