Assembling
A
Top
Online
Poker
Site
With
Crypto

Founded
in
2017,
CoinPoker
is
a
relatively
new
crypto
poker
room
and
casino,
but
increasingly
ranked
among
the
top
online
poker
sites
by
the
likes
of

Card
Player
Magazine,

PokerScout
and

Techopedia.

Unlike
conventional
internet
poker
sites
that
use
fiat
currency,
on
CoinPoker
players
bet
with
Tether
(USDT)
and
the
site
is
able
to
take
advantage
of
the
blockchain
to
show
user
funds
are
safe
and
segregated. 

Online
poker
was
rocked
by
the
Full
Tilt
Poker
scandal
in
2011,
in
which
user
funds
were
co-mingled
with
operating
funds,
and
the
company
went
insolvent
in
the
industry’s
‘Black
Friday’.

Many
top
poker
sites
increasingly
accept
cryptocurrencies
as
a
deposit
method,
but
CoinPoker
is
among
a
small
and
growing
contingent
to
go
‘all
in’
and
embrace
it
for
all
actions
at
the
poker
table.
Players
can
deposit
USDT,
Bitcoin,
Ethereum,
Solana,
Polygon,
Binance
Coin
or
its
own
native
token
CHP
which
unlocks
33%

rakeback
for
holders.

For
added
security,
CoinPoker
also
makes
use
of
Fireblocks
vaults
and
a
decentralized
RNG
(random
number
generator)
software
that
players
can
verify
the
randomness
of
after
every
hand,
utilizing
Ethereum’s
Keccak-256
algorithm.

to
produce

proof
of
reserves
report.

Proof
Of
Reserves
Stored
On
The
Blockchain

On
its
PoR
report,
CoinPoker
writes:

‘CoinPoker
prioritizes
customer
security
and
peace
of
mind.
Our
operations
are
safeguarded
by
a
Curaçao
eGaming
License,
ensuring
compliance
with
strict
regulatory
standards.
We
demonstrate
our
financial
integrity
through
Proof
of
Reserves,
holding
sufficient
funds
to
cover
all
user
assets.
Proof
of
Reserves
refers
to
the
assets
we
hold
in
custody
for
users
when
they
deposit
funds
into
their
accounts. 

Here
we
provide
proof
that
CoinPoker
has
funds
held
in
reserve
to
cover
all
of
our
users’
assets
1:1,
as
well
as
some
additional
reserves.
It’s
important
to
note
that
this
sum
of
funds
refers
only
to
users’
funds.
CoinPoker’s
corporate
holdings,
which
are
stored
in
wallets
completely
separately,
are
not
factored
into
the
proof
of
reserves
calculations.’

At
the
time
of
writing
CoinPoker
customer
deposits
total
approximately
$16
million,
and
the
total
assets
held
in
reserve
to
cover
those
is
just
under
$16.75
million,
equal
to
105%
of
deposits.
