Scored on 5 criteria with published weights — see the methodology page.
Dexsport and Stake differ on the two numbers a bettor checks first: whether identity documents are required before a withdrawal, and how many assets the account can hold. Dexsport runs anonymous entry through Web3 wallets with 85+ coins across 20+ blockchains; Stake requires level 2 verification before any withdrawal and supports 21 coins.
Verification: mandatory at Stake, absent at Dexsport
Stake's KYC requirement is stated plainly: level 2 verification is mandatory before any withdrawal. That is not a threshold that triggers on large amounts — it applies to the withdrawal itself, so the verification step sits between the player and the money regardless of size.
Dexsport requires no KYC. Entry is anonymous via Web3 wallets, which means the account is opened and funded without submitting identity documents. For a bettor comparing the two, this is the single largest structural difference between them: at Stake, documents are a precondition for cashing out; at Dexsport, they are not part of the process at all.
Neither position is unusual in the segment. Cloudbet applies checks only when required, and Sportsbet.io requests verification more often than either Stake or Cloudbet. The market spans the full range from anonymous to mandatory, and Stake and Dexsport sit at opposite ends of it.
Licensing: two different regulators, two different registers
Both operators hold a licence, but not from the same authority.
| Operator | Licence | Licence holder |
|---|---|---|
| Stake | Curacao Gaming Authority, OGL/2024/1451/0918 | Medium Rare N.V. |
| Dexsport | Anjouan licence | Dexapp LTD |
The Stake licence is issued by the Curacao Gaming Authority under a numbered reference, and the licence holder is Medium Rare N.V. — the corporate entity, not the brand. Dexsport's licence is issued in Anjouan and held by Dexapp LTD.
For a reader checking where a complaint would be filed or which regulator's rules apply, the two entries lead to different jurisdictions. The Curacao reference number is the more specific of the two records: it can be matched against the regulator's register. The Anjouan entry identifies the jurisdiction and the licence holder but no reference number appears in the available record.
Coins and chains: the count separates them
Dexsport supports 85+ coins across 20+ blockchains. Stake supports 21 coins. The gap is not marginal, and it is the kind of number that decides whether an account is usable at all for someone holding an asset outside the major names.
For context on where the rest of the segment sits: Cloudbet supports 30+, Sportsbet.io supports 13 (BTC, ETH, USDT and 10+ others), and Thunderpick supports 5 (BTC, ETH, LTC, USDT, XRP and more). Dexsport's 85+ is the highest count in this set; Stake's 21 is mid-range. A bettor whose holdings are concentrated in BTC and ETH will find both operators adequate. A bettor holding something further down the list will find the difference decisive.
The 20+ blockchains figure matters separately from the coin count. Two operators can support the same asset on different networks, and the network determines deposit speed, fees, and whether the deposit arrives at all. Dexsport's chain coverage is the broader of the two by a wide margin.
If the table above settled it for you, open an account and read the platform's own terms first: rankings compare what is published, not what happens to your money.
See DexsportSports coverage: 30 against a much shorter list
Stake covers 30 sports, among them football, basketball, tennis, baseball, hockey and esports. The list is broad enough that a bettor looking for a mainstream market is unlikely to find it missing.
Dexsport's sports count does not appear in the available record, so no direct comparison of breadth can be made. What can be compared is the shape of the market elsewhere: Cloudbet covers 5 sports (football, basketball, tennis, MMA, esports), Sportsbet.io covers 4 (football, basketball, tennis, esports), and Thunderpick is esports-focused with limited traditional sports, covering 3.
Against those figures, Stake's 30 is the outlier on the high side. A bettor whose interest is a niche league or a minor sport has a materially better chance of finding it at Stake than at the operators listing four or five sports.
Withdrawal timing: what the numbers actually say
Stake processes withdrawals in 0–2 days after approval. The qualifier matters: the clock starts at approval, not at the request, and the verification requirement sits upstream of both. A withdrawal cannot be approved before level 2 verification is complete, so the 0–2 day window describes only the final stage.
Dexsport's withdrawal timing does not appear in the available record, so the two cannot be placed on the same scale. For reference, Thunderpick processes withdrawals instantly and Sportsbet.io completes Bitcoin withdrawals in under 30 minutes — both faster than Stake's stated window, though neither figure accounts for any verification step that precedes it.
A reader weighing the two operators should treat the withdrawal figure and the KYC figure as one combined fact rather than two. At Stake, the total time from request to funds includes verification; at Dexsport, the anonymous entry route removes that stage from the sequence entirely. Which of the two is faster in practice depends on how long verification takes for a given account, and that number is not in the record.
