In the past few years, cryptocurrency has been experiencing a golden age, becoming more and more popular in the popular zeitgeist. It seems that more and more people, companies, and even certain countries, have begun to take the new phenomenon seriously, and the prices of certain cryptos (Bitcoin and Ether for example) are higher than ever.
On the other hand, online sports betting has been around for a long time. Since the late 90s and early 2000s, online betting sites began to gain traffic, and throughout the 21st century, they've been steadily growing in popularity, reaching their peak in the 2020s. With Bitcoin's rise in prominence, it might not surprise most of you to learn that, many online betting sites have begun to accept crypto-based transactions, deposits, and withdrawals.
For those of you who are new to the world of online betting, in this article, we are going to provide a few tips for betting with bitcoin. Let's get started.
Look into the Most Popular Cryptos
When it comes to online betting using crypto, the first thing you are going to need to do, is familiarize yourselves with the cryptocurrencies used and accepted by the website you've chosen. Of course, the most popular cryptocurrencies already have the advantage, so you can assume that, if a betting site accepts crypto, it more than likely accepts the top ones, such as Ethereum, Bitcoin, etc. Some websites embrace more obscure cryptocurrencies, and some might even embrace all of them.
Similarly, to the betting sites,
most of the popular cryptocurrencies are accepted when it comes to online gambling as well. For example, there are plenty of
bitcoin casinos out there, and they've recently begun to garner attention, and an increase in traffic.
Look into Popular Sports
The next thing to do, is take a look at the most popular sports at the various online betting sites that you will be using to place your bets. Football is the biggest betting sport in the world today, however other sports that gain major traction at online betting shops include cricket (which is the second most popular sport in the world with 2.5 billion fans), basketball, horse racing, golf, tennis, hockey, etc. Make sure you have thoroughly familiarized yourself with these sports before you.
Delve Deeper into Your Sport of Choice
Once you've chosen the sport (or sports) to bet on, delve deeper into the statistics. If you are interested in football betting, for example, look into the popular football events, the top rated players, the best clubs, and the odds that come with betting, before you decide to place a bet.
Decide Why You Want to Bet
There are
plenty of reasons that some people might want to pursue sports betting. For those who are experienced, it is a way to make some extra money on the side, for some it is a fun way to delve deeper into their favorite hobby, and some just do it for the thrill and excitement that it provides. But, before you dedicate yourself to the practice, make sure you are aware of the risks that come along with sports betting, and be 100% sure that you are willing to take these risks. Once you've decided that this is, in fact, the case, you will be ready to bet with the best of them.
Make Sure That Everything is Legal
Let's say that you've done it all. You've looked into the best sites, decided on your favorite sport, picked out the club/player/team, and have come to terms with the risks. None of that means anything if online sports betting is not legal in your region. Before you start placing bets, or even looking into it, make sure that your country or state allows online betting/gambling.
