    Meanwhile, on the other side, crypto casinos, the competition is getting more and more fierce.

    Until one point, it happened. 0% HE house games, halved HE on other games. I thought it's too good to be true until I tested it out.

    It's real, and it's called Duel casino. Feel free to try it out. However it's recommended to DYOR first.

    House games:

    Most of the casino do 96.0%-99.0% RTP, plus some rakeback or so, the effective RTP is up to 99.60% I guess.

    Duel is 99.90% base RTP, and rakeback is 0.1% of your wagering, and effective RTP is 100.00% (however the limit is up to $1k per single bet, and $50k wagering per day)

    Slots:

    Stake:

    Comparing to Stake -- They will instead give you these 'bonuses' through their levelup system, which we are not a big fan of. These bonuses are designed as clever retention mechanisms which utilize psychological phenomenon like the sunk cost fallacy, and they are designed to give you extra dopamine hits and they make you come back to the site over and over again to claim your daily, weekly and monthly rewards, and the list goes on. And in the end, even if you claim all the rewards, it's not going to be nearly as much as the 50% that we give you INSTANTLY with no strings attached.

    Duel: Instant rakeback 50% of House Edge.

    Yeah I wagered $250K+ and reached platinum on Stake at the beginning of 2025, and I don't think the rewards add up to 50% house edge.

    Meanwhile the owner of duel is playing poker heads-up for millions and generally losing(he was down 35m at one point) while duel makes nowhere near that on its margins..

    Yeah, I’ve noticed that too. It feels like payout rates have quietly dropped across the board, and the few “high RTP” games left are either region-restricted or just theoretical numbers you’ll never really see. What used to feel like a fair balance between risk and entertainment now just drains your balance way faster. It’s not just bad luck — it’s design. The greed’s pretty obvious when every “new” slot launches with flashy graphics but worse returns 😶
