About Us

BTC Casinos was built for one specific reader: someone in the US who wants to play at crypto-friendly casinos and has questions about access, licensing, and how VPN use fits into all of it. This page explains who we are, how we work, and what our ratings actually represent.

Why couragetoearn.com focuses on VPN-friendly crypto casinos

Most casino comparison sites treat every operator the same way. We don't. Our angle is narrower and, we think, more useful: we look specifically at crypto casinos that accept players connecting through a VPN, and we explain what that means in practical terms — not just which sites tolerate it, but what the licensing situation looks like, what happens at withdrawal time, and where the real risks sit. A lot of general "best online casino" content glosses over this entirely, which leaves readers guessing.

What we actually do before a casino appears on this site

Every operator listed here has gone through the same review process. It isn't a lab test and we don't claim to have deposited or withdrawn funds ourselves — we work from publicly available information, licensing registers, published terms, and how each operator communicates its own policies.

• We check what licence or jurisdictional registration the operator holds and cross-reference it against the regulator's own public records where one exists.
• We read the bonus terms in full — wagering requirements, game weighting, maximum withdrawal caps, and expiry dates — rather than repeating the headline offer alone.
• We look at the deposit and withdrawal methods on offer, including crypto options, and note any processing times or fees the operator publishes.
• We check for HTTPS encryption and basic account security features such as two-factor authentication where the operator makes that available.
• We note whether the operator publishes information on RNG certification or independent game testing for its slot and table games.
• We look for responsible gambling tools — deposit limits, time-outs, self-exclusion — because their presence (or absence) tells you something about how the operator is run.

Where a fact isn't published or verifiable — a specific withdrawal time, for instance — we say so rather than guessing. If something changes after publication, our listings are dated so you can judge how current the information is.

How our editorial ratings work

The scores you see next to each operator are our own editorial judgement, built from the checks above. They are not customer-review scores, they are not paid placements, and commission arrangements never decide the order. Some of the operators we cover do pay a referral fee if a reader signs up through a link on this site — that's disclosed wherever it applies, and it has no bearing on where an operator sits in our rankings.

A high rating reflects a combination of licensing clarity, transparent terms, a reasonable range of crypto and traditional payment options, and functioning responsible gambling tools. It does not mean a player is likely to win, and no rating on this site should be read that way. Outcomes at any casino game are governed by a built-in house edge, and RTP figures are long-run statistical averages, not a promise about any single session.

What "VPN-friendly" means on this site — and what it doesn't

When we describe a crypto casino as VPN-friendly, we mean the operator doesn't actively block VPN connections at sign-up or during play. We don't mean the casino is licensed to operate in every US state, and we don't mean using a VPN removes any legal or contractual obligation on the player's side. Local gambling law varies significantly by state, and using a VPN to access a site can put a player in breach of that operator's own terms of service, even where the casino itself doesn't block the connection. We flag this clearly in our individual reviews rather than burying it in small print.

Who we think should — and shouldn't — read this site

This content is written for adults who are already thinking about crypto casino play and want a clearer picture of licensing, payments, and access before they sign up anywhere. It assumes a baseline understanding that gambling carries financial risk. It is not aimed at anyone under the minimum legal gambling age in their state (typically 21, though this varies), and it is not written for anyone for whom gambling has become a source of financial or personal harm. If that describes you or someone you know, our responsible gambling page lists tools and support services worth looking at before anything else.

Eligibility and legal standing — what we expect readers to check themselves

We don't hold or claim any gambling licence ourselves — BTC Casinos is an independent comparison and review site, not an operator. Eligibility to gamble online in the US depends on the player's state of residence and physical location at the time of play, and on the licensing status of the individual operator in that state. We don't verify a reader's location or eligibility, and we can't confirm that any operator listed here is licensed to accept players from every US state. Readers are responsible for checking their own state's rules and for confirming an operator's current licensing status before depositing.

How we handle offers and bonuses

Where a page lists a headline bonus — a match percentage, free spins, or cashback rate — that figure comes directly from the operator and is shown alongside the conditions that matter: minimum deposit, wagering requirements, expiry, and any game restrictions we've been able to confirm. Bonus terms change, and an offer visible today may not be available by the time you read this, so we always recommend reading the operator's current terms in full before opting in.

Getting in touch

If you spot something out of date, have a correction, or want to flag an experience with an operator we've reviewed, we want to hear about it — accurate reader feedback is part of how we keep this content useful. You can reach us through the details on our contact page. For anything relating to terms of use for this site itself, see our terms and conditions.

What we won't do

We won't tell you a casino "always pays out," that a strategy guarantees a win, or that any operator on this site offers risk-free profit. None of that is true of any casino game, and claims like it are the clearest sign of a review you shouldn't trust. Our job is to lay out what an operator actually offers, what it costs, and what the fine print says — and then leave the decision, and the risk, where it belongs: with the player.
