FinTelegram reviewed CryptoCasino.com and CoinKings.io, two “no-KYC” crypto casinos that appear operationally identical to MegaDice—including the same fiat-to-crypto deposit pattern via Changelly → Banxa and MoonPay. While casino aggregators often attribute these brands to MIBS N.V. (Curaçao), disclosures on the casinos’ own web properties point to Costa Rica entities.
FinTelegram reviewed MegaDice as part of our Rail Atlas work. The Curaçao-licensed crypto casino can be accessed from multiple EU jurisdictions and the UK with email-only onboarding in our tests. MegaDice offers direct crypto deposits (no casino-side KYC observed) and an embedded “Buy Crypto / Compra Crypto” rail that routes users into Changelly and MoonPay purchase flows—where fiat processing and KYC appear to be performed by the on-ramp providers, not the casino.
FinTelegram has re-tested the RakeBit crypto casino / sportsbook between January 6–10, 2026 and observed repeated failures when attempting to fund accounts via the embedded “Buy Crypto” flow previously routed through MoonPay and Changelly. If confirmed, the loss of this indirect FIAT deposit rail would remove a key conversion chokepoint—potentially explaining RakeBit’s sharp traffic decline in December 2025.
Our cybercrime experts have uncovered a dangerous scam targeting crypto casino players at RakeBit. Our compliance investigation reveals the explicit use of Changelly.pro, a fraudulent and imposter domain deliberately designed to mimic the trusted brand Changelly.com/Changelly PRO. Make no mistake: Changelly.pro has NO connection whatsoever to the real Changelly.com or its official trading platform pro.changelly.com.
RakeBit (rakebit.com) markets itself aggressively as the "best No-KYC Casino," operating a crypto-first gambling platform that explicitly bypasses identity verification requirements. Our investigation on November 6, 2025, reveals a concerning pattern: unrestricted registration from prohibited EU jurisdictions.
We recently found an interesting review on LinkedIn about the apparently illegal online casino Betsolino, published by Digital Marketing Strategist Michael Schmitt. According to the review, Betsolino has been identified as an illegal operation. Therefore, we looked at Betsolino and its payment processors. We discovered red flags and issued an urgent warning.
We've uncovered a concerning trend in our recent analysis of the online casinos and gambling sector, particularly focusing on the high-risk aspects of these activities and their associated payment processors. Many payment processors, including those regulated by financial authorities, seem to be unknowingly engaging in unauthorized and, consequently, illegal online gambling operations. FinCrime Observer published an interesting report about this scene and its payment processors.
FinTelegram has pointed out several times that offshore operators of online gambling, casino, and sports betting sites, such as the Dama Group, are increasingly relying on crypto to accept deposits from their clients without having a regulatory permit. In doing so, they use companies they set up in Cyprus as payment agents. The most popular payment facilitators for crypto payments include MoonPay and Changelly. Both facilitate Dama Group's BitStarz.
The Spanish regulator CNMV issued a warning against crypto derivatives broker Margex. The unauthorized offshore broker offers leverage of up to 100:1, which is significantly higher than the maximum leverage of 30:1 allowed by ESMA. Margex is active on Twitter, YouTube, and Facebook and deploys an aggressive affiliate and referral system to chase new clients. According to the latest statistics, the broker receives most of its traffic from clients in the U.S.
On Trustpilot, Deriv, the online broker founded by Jean-Yves Sireau in Malaysia in 1999, receives an impressive 4.5-star rating based on nearly 15,000 reviews. Deriv operates globally with various legal entities and has more than one million clients and more than 1.8 million trading accounts. In Europe, Deriv operates through MFSA-regulated Deriv Investments (Europe) Ltd. According to Similarweb, Deriv focuses on Brazil and South Africa, where nearly 25% of the website's 5.8 million visits are sourced.
In Feb 2022, Spanish CNMV issued a warning against crypto derivatives broker Margex. On its website, Margex claims that the so-called MP Shield system would protect clients from price manipulation on the crypto market. The offshore broker offers leverage of up to 100:1, which is significantly higher than the maximum leverage of 30:1 allowed by ESMA. Margex is active on Twitter, YouTube, and Facebook and deploys an aggressive affiliate and referral system to chase new clients. Margex is still active with Changelly and ChangeNow!
The Spanish regulator CNMV has issued a warning against crypto derivatives broker Margex (https://margex.com). On its website, Margex claims that the so-called MP Shield system would protect clients from price manipulation on the crypto market. How this is supposed to work is not explained. The offshore broker offers leverage of up to 100:1, which is significantly higher than the maximum leverage of 2:1 allowed by ESMA. Margex is very active on Twitter, YouTube, and Facebook and deploys an aggressive affiliate and referral system to chase new clients.
