Did carbon take away a ton of money from their daily cash game leaderboards?

https://www.carbongaming.ag/promos/carbon-challenges

On the site it lists out what it use to be (and should be) but clicking on the view leaderboards, it only pays 1 spot now and a lot less money.

I got a withdrawal of $2500 coming from Carbon.

My question is will i be ok without any additional fees if i send this 1 lump sum to Circle for a cash out or will it be best if once i receive in Blockchain i send 2 seperate transactions to Circle like 1 for $1200 and other $1300 be better?

Just wanna make sure so i don't deal with additional fees removed some were saying was happening after a certain amount or me getting flagged in general

Thanks.

No reported additional fees on sums <$3000.

Thanks i will just send in 1 lump sum when receive then.

I remember someone mentioning additional fees for larger transactions to and from Circle but I've done countless withdrawals via Circle and I'm certain nothing has ever been deducted.

In case anyone else was wondering, I confirmed through support that there's no cap to the 5% btc wdraw fee. Since they recently bumped the max wdraw to 25k I wanted to check that they hadn't capped the fee.

My last 2 btc withdraws ($2500 and $5000) have not had any fees taken out.

are you positive about that?

Ruh roh raggy...

I dun goof'd.

So I always used an intermediary btc account (blockchain) when withdrawing, but whenever I made a deposit, I sent Carbon money straight from my Circle account.


Last week, I got the following email.

I am pretty sure this is because I made a carbon deposit without an intermediary btc account.

Should I continue to withdraw using blockchain as an intermediary? Or is that too risky?

Is there an alternate service I can use to replace my circle account?

I haven't really read every line of the UIGEA but I remember someone smarter than I paraphrased it once saying that cashouts from gambling sites were actually protected by the UIGEA- it was just the deposit part that was curbed.

With that being said, if that is indeed correct information then I suppose Circle could still close counts at their discretion as to not put their company in jeopardy but has anyone ever gotten a warning from Circle solely because of cashouts? If so, was it due to cashing out directly to Circle or did you use an intermediary wallet and still get flagged?

I only think they flagged my account due to cashouts because thats the only business I have been doing with Circle for months. Depositing was no problem, and assuming they flagged my account because of Carbon deposits, then it took them over 3 months to give me this warning.

Regarding my withdrawals, I always used blockchain intermediary.

I also remember people saying you only get flagged for withdrawals and not deposits. I have also read on a reddit thread someone else getting a letter about gambling when all they did was make a deposit and not a withdrawal.

To play it safe. I believe it is better to always use a intermediary.

Edit: It might have been the other way around. So reverse everything I said. I forgot. But if someone really wants I can try to find the reddit post and link you there.

The point remains the same. Always use an intermediary.....

Speaking of Circle i cannot generate a bitcoin address in the upper right hand corner at the moment is there a reason why?

I did not receive any gambling related emails


EDIT: Really weird i can generate one when i log on thru my phone but not on laptop.
