What do you think of using cryptocurrency to buy into online poker sites? Would you rather be able to use a card or your bank account?
 
I don't mind withdrawing my funds with cryptocurrency because it's easy to get cash using a bitcoin ATM, and it takes minutes. However, it's hard for me to use my bank card to load my crypto wallet, because of restrictions with my bank. I also have to use a bitcoin ATM for that, and put cash into the machine.
 
Cryptocurrency is the best bet because it easy, convenient and help you stay under the radar! Moreover, cryptocurrency deposits use to be relatively fast except when there network congestion! With cryptocurrency, you have more control over your funds.
 
I would rather use crypto compared to card or bank. Funding account with crypto costs less and it is also instant. Sometimes funding through bank or card might take a few days due to bank holiday or payment gateway issue.

This is a valid reason and clearly the reason I would prefer using crypto to fund my accounts on poker sites that allows for it.

Personally, I think it's safer to use cryptocurrency to fund my online poker accounts. Using Paypal isn't advisable because PayPal is against gambling. They will ban your account. I wouldn't use my bank card either.
 
Sometimes banks or card might block your transactions. In my home countries, gambling is illegal, so you cannot legally use banks or card to fund your accounts on any gambling sites, including poker site.
 
I don't mind either card or crypto, but if crypto is an option, that will be the option I choose over card.

I don't tend to play much for money or gamble, though, so not very often I need to use either very often.
 
I am quite sure that many people would be reluctant to use their bank cards when it comes to withdrawing money. I think that cryptocurrency offers a better and safer way to deposit and withdraw money.
 
Card payments are convenient until your bank suddenly decides the transaction looks suspicious. That is when you would start having issues with them. That happened to me with my card last year and I just laughed. Crypto may look stressful at first but once you understand the wallet addresses, it gets easier.

Exactly. I know someone who lost his PayPal account because of the sender used gambling in the note of the payment sent to him. Imagine when PayPal is used to pay on a gambling site.
