02Licence and domain coverage	Documented The terms state that The Anjouan Betting and Gaming Board authorises Hot Streak Ltd. under licence ALSI-202504045-FI2. The applicable law is that of Anjouan, Union of Comoros. No licence seal or validator link was found on the pages checked. RTP Ledger has not read a regulator record for this licence. Checked Oct 24, 2026Epicbet terms and conditions ↗	Documented The regulator certificate listed the covered domain, licensee, number and active status. The Curaçao Gaming Control Board's bulk licence registry PDF is dated 2026-09-10. The registry PDF lists the same licence number and Medium Rare N.V., company number 145353. The registry PDF gives an issued date of 9 December 2025 and an expiry date of 9 June 2026. The registry PDF gives a different status: "Assessment in progress". RTP Ledger does not resolve this discrepancy between the two regulator-published sources.

Each record follows the same documented pattern: BTC appears in Stake's public asset-level withdrawal table. The source does not bind the row to a specific network, so RTP Ledger does not treat it as an exact route claim. 17 payment route list records cover BTC on Bitcoin, DOGE on Dogecoin, ETH on ERC-20, ETH on BEP-20, LTC on Litecoin, SOL on Solana, TRX on TRC-20, USDC on ERC-20, USDC on BEP-20, USDC on Polygon, USDC on Solana, USDT on ERC-20, USDT on BEP-20, USDT on Polygon, USDT on TRC-20, USDT on Solana, XRP on XRP Ledger.

How the casino comparison works

On 2026-10-24, Epicbet has 16 areas with source support. Stake has 16. These totals measure current RTP Ledger research coverage. They do not measure casino safety or service quality.

A source link supports only the scope stated in its cell. Published rules are not an RTP Ledger account test. An area without a dated source remains unresearched.

Current cashout test status, taken from each review:

Epicbet: partial evidence; 0 dated sources; no dated check.
Stake: partial evidence; 0 dated sources; no dated check.

The comparison does not infer a completed account test from operator terms or from another review area.

For an asset and network view, use the money hub. For the full rules, read the casino review methodology.
