Pros & Cons
Housebets — Pros
- October 21, 2026: recorded withdrawal result 0.0004 BTC (Not reported)

- Named independent dispute service (Resolvo Curaçao) written into the terms, free of charge, with defined complaint deadlines
- Material terms changes require your active re-acceptance — no silent T&C swaps
- Original house games are provably fair with player-verifiable server/client seeds
- Very active on social media, and the team is in direct contact with WagerX
