About Cryptsy
Cryptsy reviews crypto exchanges, online casinos, and betting platforms for US players. We test with real accounts, publish the good and the bad, and tell you how we make money. No paid placements pretending to be reviews.
What Cryptsy covers
- Crypto exchanges and tools: Reviews of Coinbase, Kraken, Binance.US, and smaller players. Wallets, tax tools, trading bots, and portfolio trackers.
- Online casinos: Real-money, crypto, and sweepstakes casinos for US players. Bonus breakdowns, wagering requirements, withdrawal testing, and state-by-state legal status.
- Sportsbooks and betting: Legal US sportsbooks, odds conversion, and bankroll strategy.
- Responsible gambling: Self-exclusion tools, spending limits, and where to get help.
How we review
We review the casino, exchange, or tool ourselves before publishing. That means creating an account, depositing real money, playing or trading, and requesting a withdrawal. A review goes live only after we have completed a real withdrawal cycle or flagged why a withdrawal was blocked.
What we test for
- License and jurisdiction (operator registration, state legality)
- Bonus terms, wagering requirements, and real cost-to-clear
- Deposit and withdrawal speed, including failed or held payments
- Customer support response time via live chat and email
- Game fairness signals (provider audits, RNG certification)
- Account verification process and KYC friction
Editorial standards
Every review, guide, and news piece is written by a human editor and checked before publishing. We do not push AI-generated articles live without editing. We refresh ranking content every 90 days, or whenever an operator changes bonuses, pricing, or availability.
We disclose affiliate relationships on every review. If an operator sponsors a placement, we label it. Operator bonuses and promo codes are verified against the operator’s own live offer before we publish them.
Corrections policy
If we get a fact wrong, let us know through our contact page with a link to the page and the correction. We respond within 48 hours and date-stamp the update on the page.

How we make money
Cryptsy is funded by affiliate partnerships. When you click a link to an operator and sign up, we earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Commission does not affect our scoring. A higher-paying operator does not rank higher on our lists than a lower-paying one.
We turn down sponsorships from operators that fail our review tests, ship to restricted states without proper licensing, or have an unresolved regulatory complaint on file.
Responsible gambling
If gambling stops being fun, stop. Resources we trust:
- National Council on Problem Gambling: 1-800-GAMBLER or ncpgambling.org
- Gamblers Anonymous: gamblersanonymous.org
- State self-exclusion: most US states with legal gambling maintain a voluntary self-exclusion registry. Search “[your state] gambling self-exclusion”.
Crypto gambling is legal in some US states, restricted in others, and banned in a handful. Always verify your state’s rules before playing.
