Cryptocurrency is a digital currency primarily used on the internet, secured by cryptography. Unlike physical money, it does not exist in the form of banknotes or coins and is used for online transfers and payments. Transactions are made directly, without the need for banks, which allows for smooth cross-border payments. There are currently said to be over 10,000 types of cryptocurrency.
In recent years, cryptocurrencies have been actively introduced as deposit and withdrawal methods in sports betting, with the number of users increasing year by year. On Mybet, you can use many different cryptocurrencies, and its ease of use is highly appreciated by players.
Using cryptocurrency in sports betting offers many benefits that enhance your gaming experience. The three key benefits are followings.
One of the biggest advantages of cryptocurrency is the speed of transactions. For example, bank transfers can take until the next day to process, but cryptocurrency transactions are usually completed instantly or within 30 minutes, and at most within 2 hours. Since the transactions are reflected quickly, you can start playing your game right away without any stress.
Since cryptocurrency transactions do not go through intermediaries like banks or payment processors, the transaction fees are generally lower (fees may vary depending on the exchange, so be sure to check in advance). At Mybet, there are no fees for deposits or withdrawals.
Cryptocurrency is a global currency that is not limited by countries or regions, and it does not require international transfer fees or currency conversion fees. As a result, you can make consistent payments regardless of where you are in the world and which country’s services you are using. When using overseas sports betting, cryptocurrency allows for smooth transactions without the need to go through local banks.

Quick Game Resumption
By using cryptocurrency on Mybet, deposits are reflected in your account quickly, allowing you to resume your games smoothly. Unlike traditional payment methods like bank transfers, which can take time to reflect, cryptocurrency transactions are almost always completed instantly and, at most, within 2 hours. This means you can skip waiting times and focus on enjoying your games.
Not Affected by Bank Hours
One of the great attractions of cryptocurrency is that it operates 24/7, 365 days a year. You can make deposits and withdrawals freely at any time, without being affected by the operating hours of banks or financial institutions. This makes it very convenient for playing on Mybet, as you can enjoy your games anytime, without time restrictions.

Cryptocurrency payments are one of the best ways to enjoy gaming on Mybet.
Let’s get started with cryptocurrency. The general flow of acquiring cryptocurrency is as follows:
Choose an Exchange
Open an Account
Buy Cryptocurrency
Prepare a Wallet
Let’s take a closer look at each of these steps, along with some important notes.
To start trading cryptocurrency, you need to open an account at an exchange. When choosing an exchange, be sure to check the following points:
Supported Cryptocurrencies
Different exchanges support different cryptocurrencies. Be sure to check if the exchange offers the cryptocurrency you want to use.
Transaction Fees
Exchanges charge different fees for transactions, including "exchange fees," "sales fees," and "deposit/withdrawal fees." Compare these fees to minimize unnecessary costs.
Security
Look for exchanges with good security, such as licenses, two-factor authentication, and a track record of reliability.
Once you’ve chosen an exchange, the next step is to open an account. The process generally involves:
Registering your email address and verifying it
Setting up two-factor authentication
Filling in your registration details and submitting identification documents
Once the review is passed, your account is created
The order of these steps may vary depending on the exchange. The identity verification process typically takes 1–2 days, but some exchanges allow deposits before the review is complete.
Once your account is open, it’s time to buy cryptocurrency.
First, deposit investment funds into your account. You can use 'bank transfer,' 'convenience store deposit,' or 'internet banking' to complete the process, and once the deposit is complete, you can purchase the cryptocurrency.
There are mainly two methods for purchasing cryptocurrency. One is to purchase at a 'sales office,' where you transact directly with a cryptocurrency seller, which tends to be more expensive, and the other is to purchase at an 'exchange,' where you trade with other users, which helps keep the costs lower.
The purchased cryptocurrency is stored in a wallet. You can use the wallet provided by the exchange, but it is generally recommended to use an external wallet for enhanced security.
There are two main types of wallets: 'hot wallets,' which are suitable for frequent transactions, and 'cold wallets,' which are used for offline storage and are ideal for long-term storage. For sports betting, a hot wallet is best due to its speed and convenience in transactions. Transfer your purchased cryptocurrency to a wallet for secure management.
There are a few points you should be aware of when using cryptocurrency:
Cryptocurrency prices fluctuate like stocks. These fluctuations can be sharp, and sometimes they can be beneficial for users, while at other times they may not be. Predicting prices is extremely difficult, so it is important to manage your investment and have a risk management strategy. Before making transactions on sports betting, it’s a good idea to check the current price.
Currently, there are around 10,000 types of cryptocurrency. However, not all exchanges or sports betting support all cryptocurrencies. Be sure to check in advance which cryptocurrencies are supported by the exchange or sports betting you are using.
Cryptocurrency transactions are irreversible once completed. If you make an error with the destination address or confirm a transaction by mistake, it is impossible to recover the lost funds. This is because cryptocurrency transactions are recorded on the system, and once they are confirmed, they cannot be changed or canceled. Always double-check the destination address and transaction details before confirming a transaction.
If you’re new to cryptocurrency, there may be many unfamiliar terms that make it seem difficult to use. However, once you understand the basic terms and concepts, cryptocurrency will feel much more accessible.
Here are some basic terms for beginners:
Blockchain Technology
This is the secure technology that underpins cryptocurrency. Transaction data is stored in "blocks" and linked together like a chain. This system ensures that any tampering with transaction data will disrupt the consistency with other blocks, making it easy to detect fraud.
Wallet
A digital wallet for storing and managing cryptocurrency. There are different types, including "hot wallets" for online use and "cold wallets" for offline storage. You can also use various software, apps, or devices to manage your wallet.
Private Key
A crucial key for managing your wallet that should never be shared with others. The private key is used for sending and making transactions. If someone gains access to your private key, they can steal the funds from your wallet. Therefore, it’s important to keep your private key secure.
Public Key
A key generated from your private key that can be shared with others. You provide this key to senders so they can send cryptocurrency to your wallet. It is safe to share your public key with others.
Transaction
A transaction refers to the act of sending or exchanging cryptocurrency. All transactions are recorded on the blockchain and are permanently stored. Once recorded, transactions cannot be changed or deleted. Additionally, all transactions are public, and anyone can view the history of a transaction.
