Bitcoin at Nano: sending and receiving BTC without surprises

Bitcoin is the oldest coin you are likely to see in a casino cashier and, for many players, the one they already hold. It has no chargebacks and no bank in the middle, which is both its strength and its risk: what you send is final. This page covers the Bitcoin-specific details for the Nano cashier — addresses, fees, confirmations and price movement. Stablecoins, other networks and memo tags are covered in the broader crypto payments guide. The set of methods and the limits depend on the operator and your account — check the cashier.

Bitcoin deposit, step by step

1. Select Bitcoin in the cashier; it shows a deposit address and often a QR code.
2. Copy the address with the copy button or scan the code — never type it by hand.
3. In your wallet, paste the address and compare the first and last few characters with the cashier.
4. Choose a network fee: a higher fee usually gets the transaction into a block sooner.
5. Send, then keep the transaction ID and follow it in a block explorer until the cashier credits the deposit.

Address formats

Bitcoin addresses come in several formats: older ones begin with 1 or 3, and newer native SegWit addresses begin with bc1. Modern wallets can send to all of them. What matters is that you send real BTC on the Bitcoin network to the exact address shown. Bitcoin-pegged tokens on other blockchains look similar in some wallets but are different assets; sending them to a Bitcoin address does not work.

Fees and congestion

The network fee is paid to miners and has nothing to do with the operator. It depends on how busy the network is and on the size of your transaction in bytes, not on the amount of bitcoin. In quiet periods it is small; when blocks are full, a low-fee transaction can wait a long time. If your wallet supports it, replace-by-fee lets you raise the fee on a stuck transaction. The operator may also charge its own fee on deposits or withdrawals — that, if it exists, is shown on the cashier confirmation screen.

Confirmations and price movement

The cashier credits a Bitcoin deposit after a set number of confirmations. With a block roughly every ten minutes on average, that can mean anything from a few minutes to over an hour, depending on the requirement and on congestion. Meanwhile the price keeps moving, and the deposit is converted to your account currency at the rate when it is credited, not when you pressed send. The same happens in reverse on a withdrawal: the BTC amount you receive is calculated at the rate when the payout is processed.

Withdrawing Bitcoin

A Bitcoin withdrawal goes through the operator’s normal review — verification, bonus status and the closed-loop rule — before anything is sent on-chain. Withdraw to an address you control. If the account lets you save or whitelist withdrawal addresses, set it up once and use it. Sending to an exchange address is possible, but check that the exchange accepts deposits from gambling operators and that the address belongs to your own exchange account. Once the cashier marks the payout as sent, ask for the transaction ID if it is not displayed; with it you can see the exact moment the coins left.

What usually delays a Bitcoin payout

On the operator’s side the causes are the usual ones: incomplete verification, unfinished bonus wagering, a first-withdrawal manual check. On the network side, payouts are sometimes batched together and broadcast at intervals, and congestion can slow confirmation. Check the withdrawal guide for the full list of statuses.
