They are the good guys fighting against the villain that is our control-freak-government who are trying to take away basic freedoms. Besides, how can the government go after them? They have no assets in Australia and the Australian government has no authority to prosecute in other countries. So I don't see it.
I think the bill was formed so that AUS govt can go after offshore providers with litigation. But all that aside, what I meant was that be careful with "WHEN" you deposit because BTC can swing like crazy in 24 hour spans.
So your winnings are subject to further variance in the form of BTC price too.
But all the best man, can't hurt continuing to play for the time being.
