Overview

Duelbits is an esports-first crypto book whose operator setup changed between our research passes: the January 2025 app bundle (Wayback) documented "Liquid Entertainment N.V. (153298), Curaçao, license GLH-OCCHKTW076092020", while the live site today is duelbits.io with a new footer: "duelbits.io is operated by Elevated Entertainment Ltd (Reg. No. 16101), having its registered office at Hamchako, Mutsamuda, Autonomous Island of Anjouan ... licensed to conduct online gaming operations under the laws of the Island of Anjouan" (live 2026-10-04). Notably, no license NUMBER is printed on the live footer - we record exactly that, plus the historical Curaçao record.

A founding year is not verifiable: no first-party founding date exists on the fetched pages; the earliest dated community thread on file is from 2021 ("Been on Duelbits since early 2021"). The previous 2020 figure is dropped.

Esports & Odds

The January 2025 app bundle documented an esports sport enum with 23 titles (LoL, Dota 2, CS2, Valorant, Fortnite, PUBG, Overwatch, King of Glory, SC2, Rocket League, CoD, R6, WC3, Halo, Wild Rift and more) plus map markets. The live esportsbet front page advertises sports/esports verticals with Team Liquid sponsorship and leaderboard formats; per-match depth on the live app was not verifiable from public pages today.

Odds margin: not sampled - odds render behind the app shell; no public page shows esports odds without login.

Deposits & Withdrawals

Coin support is documented from the Jan 2025 cashier bundle: BTC (1-confirmation deposits), ETH, LTC, DOGE, BCH, SOL, XRP, USDT, BUSD, BNB, APE, DAI, USDC plus fiat rails (PayPal, Pix). That is 17 coins - we keep the list labeled as the January 2025 documentation; the live cashier could not be read today (login-gated app), so the current count is "not re-verified".

Withdrawals: marketing meta (Jan 2025): "instant withdrawals"; no published SLA; app code showed BTC conf:1. Player reports (Jun 2026, documented in our dossier): withdrawal friction and AML-blocked deposits - unverified single reports, kept labeled.

Trust & Access

KYC machinery exists in the app code (levels + requiredKycLevel per the Jan 2025 bundle) - risk-triggered; the live ToS body was not reachable from our access (support hub page without the full text), so KYC thresholds are "not verified today". VPN policy: not verifiable from the pages we could read - field stays "unknown".

Bonuses

Promotion & Bonus Terms exist on the live site ("Date of last revision: 02/01/2024", fetched 2026-10-04) covering abuse handling; a welcome offer structure was not readable without an account - we record "no public welcome offer terms" rather than guessing numbers.

Reputation & Red Flags

Trustpilot: the duelbits.com profile shows 2.9/5 from 337 reviews (fetched 2026-10-04); the new duelbits.io profile is empty (0 reviews). Community threads on file: a positive multi-year-user thread (May 2026, r/gambling) and withdrawal-friction reports (Jun 2026) - the mix is documented with dates in the dossier. The Entain study note (Jun 2026) naming Duelbits among unregulated platforms promoted to UK audiences remains on file as a dated third-party observation.

Verdict

Esports-first crypto book with the deepest documented title list in this set (23-title enum, Jan 2025) and a 17-coin cashier (dated) - but the operator changed entities (Liquid/Elevated, Curaçao/Anjouan), the new footer prints no license number, and the live cashier/terms are not verifiable from public access. Treat it as a brand in transition: playable, but the trust picture is weaker than its title coverage suggests.
