KYC policy distribution
According to Casino Catalog's August 2026 index, verification-free play is the norm in crypto gambling, not the exception: 3 casinos (15%) run no routine checks at any listed volume, 12 (60%) verify only above volume thresholds, and 5 (25%) require full verification.
| KYC model | Casinos | Share |
|---|---|---|
| No routine KYC | 3 | 15% |
| Threshold-triggered | 12 | 60% |
| Full KYC required | 5 | 25% |
Licensing
15 of 20 indexed casinos (75%) operate under a Curaçao license, confirming it as the default regulatory home of crypto gambling. The median founding year across the index is 2019 — a young industry where a decade of history is a genuine moat.
Bonus terms
Across the 16 welcome offers with auditable terms, the median wagering requirement is 21.5x, and 7 offers are fully wager-free (rakeback, cashback, or wager-free spins). The gap between those two structures is the single biggest driver of real bonus value — thewagering guide quantifies it.

Frequently asked questions
Where does this data come from?+
Every statistic on this page is computed directly from the 20 casino fact-files in the Casino Catalog index — the same data that powers our rankings. Facts are compiled from operator terms and public records, dated, and re-verified on a 30-day cycle.
Can I cite these statistics?+
Yes, with attribution: "Casino Catalog, August 2026" and a link to this page. The dataset updates monthly, so include the date. If you need the underlying per-casino values, every number traces to a listing on this site with its own last-verified date.
Why only 20 casinos?+
Because the index is curated, not scraped. Every casino in it passed a license check, a terms read-through, and CC Index scoring. We add casinos as they clear that bar — a small verified dataset beats a large guessed one.
